NEW YORK. Aug. 18. ( AP t
Bursting of the latest inflation bub
ble, blown from the suds of silver
nationalisation, dominated the fi
nancial scene this week.
United States government bonds
regained a good part of their sharp
losses of the preceding fortnight, and
pulled the general Investment mar
ket up sharply.
Dimming Inflation hopes or fears
accelerated & reaction in grains and
cotton, but the stock market remain
ed lackadaisical, and after a modest
rally on Monday, merely .drifted.
Hog and livestock prices continued
to rise, and higher prices for foods
were forecast for the winter. No gen
eral price advance seemed In the off
ing, however, as a number of con
cerns seemed more Intent upon striv
ing for volume of business than for
higher profit margins. Issuance of
the autumn and winter catalogue of
one of the leading mall order houses,
showing reduced prices In a number
of line, attracted considerable attention.
The divergent price tendencies gave
security analysts considerable per
plexity, and contributed to the un
certainty In the stock market. How
ever, the lifting of the siege of
drouth In the middle west, although
it came too late to salvage any ap
preciable amount of damage, seemed
to bolster sentiment. A number or
business analysts estimated that ag
gregate farm purchasing power this
year would be 20 per cent or more
above that of 1033.

TORONTO. Aug. 18. (rD While
pressing their investigation of Can
ada's first kidnaping, Ontario took
steps today to create a province-wide
system designed to prevent the spread
of abduction for ransom.
Information gained In dealing with
the esse of John S. Labatt. London.
Ont., brewery president, who waa held
by kidnapers for nearly three days,
will form the basis of a discussion by
police officers who wilt meet with
Attorney General A. W. Roebuck.
The question of whether ransom
waa paid remained undetermined, In
Hamilton, Ont.. a source close to the
Labatt family said the kidnaped man
believed he was held in northern On
tario or the Muskako region and that
on' Wednesday night he heard his cap
tors discuss various methods of kill
ing him and disposing of his body.
The talk of murder came at;ter the
kidnapers were alarmed by reports
they received, apparently regarding
police activity, this source said, but
later new reports lessened their fflght
and nothing more waa aald on the
subject.
The smell of pine wood gave the
blindfolded victim a hint of his lo
cation, his friends were told.
A report in the Toronto Star that
another business man was threatened
with kidnaping was indirectly denied
by the man named, H. C. Hatch, head
of a distillery here.
There was a flurry during the day
in London, where police were engaged
in the case of Gordon MeKenzle, a
temporary employe of the Labatt
brewery, who died of a fractured skull.
The crown attorney said, however, the
death had nothing to do with the kid
naplng, The manner In which McKenzie re
ceived his injuries was not disclosed.
One report being that he fell down a
stairway and another that he was
hit on the head.
