Weakness in
Movie Shares
Retards Stocks
New York, July 31 (U.B Weakness
In movie share acted as a damper
on stocks today. Sporadic rallies
ran Into profit-taking which left
the main list Irregular at the close.
Sentiment continued cautiously
bullish, however, and trading dwind
led. Volume ran some 600,000 shares
below yesterday's session.
Bonds were Irregularly higher.
Wheat closed on fractional gains.
Cotton futures moved up nearly SO
cents a bale.
Many favorite stocks, Including
Chrysler, reached new highs for the
year In early trading. Coppers,
steels, rubbers, farm equipments
and motors were In best demand.
Later, however, new selling came
Into movie shares and spread to
other groups. Most gains were wiped
out but as the close approached,
many leaders came back from the
lows to show moderate gains.
The day's news was not particu
larly encouraging. Movie stocks con
tinued under Influence of the federal
anti-trust suit. Although bank
clearings In New York made a good
showing, other sections of the country
showed little Improvement and the
total for last week continued below
a year ago.
Loew's broke 3 points before
mild support which scaled the loss
moderately. Paramount and Warn
er Brothers lost about a point
Most utility leaders showed small
losses. Steel shares went Into late
trading with small gains after Beth
lehem had declined from a rise of 2
points and U. S. Steel had equalled
its high for the year at 62H up S.
Chrysler maintained a small net
gain after an early run-up of 3V4
points to a new high at 73.
Santa Pe maintained almost a
point of an earlier gain of about
2 points but other rails were up
only fractionally. Case held most of
a gain of M points to a new peak.
Although final trading was quiet,
most Issues moved up from the lows
and closed mid-way between their
tops and bottoms for the session.
Dow Jones closing stock averages:
Industrial, 141.92, up 0.08; rail, 29.78,
up 0.18; utility, 22.07 off 0.48.
Stock sales approximated 1.810.
000 shares against 2,510,000 yester
day. Curb stock sales were 236,000
shares against 367,000.
Peas and Vetch

Austrian peas and hairy vetch has
developed into one of the major

Now is Time to
Inspect Holly
Dallas Now Is the time to have
jour holly Inspected for scale If you
Intend to ship any during the
Christmas holiday season, states W.
C. Leth, Polk county agent.
Uninspected plantings cannot be
used for shipping during the holi
day season without being dipped to
prevent the spread of holly scale.
Holly trees which have been In
spected during the summer and
which are found free from scale at
that time can be used for taking
cuttings for shipment without treat
ment. Inspections are made during the
summer usually In July by Mr. Leth
without charge to growers. Com
mercial plantings are inspected by
the state department of agricul
ture.
Anyone desiring to have holly
trees Inspected should notify the
county agent's office immediately
so that all holly Inspections can be
completed in a short time as Mr.
Leth has only a limited amount of
time that he can spend on this
work.
For those growers who desire to
spray, the following suggestions
have been made by Mr. Leth: An
oil emulsion spray is the most sat
isfactory type and should be used
at the rate of 3 gallons of commer
cial "summer" oil to 97 gallons of
water. All of the foliage should be
thoroughly sprayed, special effort
should be made to cover the lower
part of the tree where most of the
scale Insects are usually found and
also both sides of the leaves should
be sprayed.
It Is reported that holly scale also
attacks English laurel and boxwood.

Tolley Appeals
To Farmers in
Wheat Proa ram
Washington, July 21 U.B Agricul
tural adjustment Administrator H.
R. Tolley appealed to farmers today
for compliance with the S5.000.000
acre wheat allotment program for
1939 to prevent repetition of a price,
depressing, bumper crop.
The AAA has announced the divi
sion of the acreage goal by states,
which later will be divided among
counties, and eventually among
Individual farmers who, by limiting
their wheat acres, will obtain farm
benefit payments. v
Each state was awarded 7436 pery
cent of Its average seeded acreage,
plus the amount diverted under pre
vious AAA programs In the last 10
years, with adjustment for the
trend In acreage during the last
three years.
"These acreage allotments offer
farmers an opportunity to cooperate
to bring wheat supplies back nearer
normal," Tolley said.
"Loans can help temporarily, but
unless supplies are kept In line
with needs, eventually farm prices
would sink under the weight ot
huge surplus."
The 1939 allotments by states in-
eluded:
Western Idaho, 885.549; Oregon,
768303; and Washington, 1,681,159.
