W) Stocks tumbled fractions to 2 . points under an early profit tak ing assault in today's market, then turned around and posted net gains of as much before the close. Aircraftg, among the first to suffer, led the comeback in the l late afternoon. Steels then step ped into front place and other shaky issues of the forenoon Joined the upward reversal. Aviations attempted to edge forward at the opening, appar ently buoyed by house approval of the arms embargo repeal. But liquidation- on the theory the "good news" was out, quickly slammed these favorites for losses and it was only in the afternoon that they shifted gears and got back on the climb. Transfers approximated 1,800, 000 shares. Getting into new high ground for the year were United Air craft, Glenn Martin. Curtiss- Wright comman and "A,'' Con solidated Aircraft and Sears Roe Prominent on the advance were Douglas Aircraft, Wright Aeronautical, U. S. Steel, Beth k lehem, Youngstown. Sheet, Ana conda, N. Y. Central, Westing house, U. S. Gypsum, DuPont International Harvester and Un ion Carbide. Curtiss-Wright was one of the ' speediest performers, opening on a block of 20,000 shares.

Heavy Artillery Fire Accom panies German Maneuver Patrol Units Skirmish Paris, Nov. 3 (Al French military sources reported strong German troop movements today northeast of Sarrcguemines. ac companied by heavy artillery screen fire. They said the French imme diately placed their forces on the alert against the possibility of a German thrust in the area be tween Sarreguemincs and Ohren- thai, less than a mile from the frontier and about five miles south of the German city of Zweibrueckcn. Patrols Skirmish The French held a four-mile-wide salient near Ohrenthal, be tween the Blies river and the Vosge foothills and reports said they were concentrating their answering artillery fire in an at tempt to smash German commu nications. Patrol units fought on the wooded slopes of the Vosges, these sources said, and about nine miles east of Sarrcguemines. German artillery and patrols apparently were testing the whole length of the 100-mile nor thern flank of the western front between Luxembourg and the Bhine river by shifting their ac tion from one sector to another. No Major Push Seen There still was no sign of a major Nazi offensive, but every time a concentrated artillery bar rage starts the French set them selves against that possibility. The action of the United States house of representatives toward ending the embargo on arms for Europe's warring nations was hailed in France as a major vic tory for the allies over Germany. Premier Daladier was under stood to have devoted much of his analysis of the general situa tion at a cabinet meeting today to prospects of buying equip ment, particularly airplanes, in the United States. French sources estimated 12 German planes were shot down during October as compared with 28 in September. They said bad weather reduced aerial activity last month. Two peasants were acclaimed for the barehanded capture of the crew of a German plane brought down yesterday near the French-Belgian frontier. It was one of a group of three German planes apparently heading for their bases after a flight over the North sea, military sources said. Tony Galento's Dog Too Tough for Town Orange, N. J., Nov. 3. OP) Tony Galento's dog Blackie has been outlawed as too tough for this town. . The board of health marked up three counts and out against Blackie after Tony's pet nipped 10-year old Eugene Lee in the Galento backyard yesterday. The heavyweight challenger, now in Florida, was ordered to remove the dog from Orange or have it destroyed. Portland, Ore., Nov. 3. (P) Mrs. Mildred Zink, 37, was near death at a hospital here today, shot by a 56-year old laborer whom Detective John Abbolt said calmly placed a pistol at her back and pulled the trigger. Abbott reported Clarence W. Winesett, booked on a charge of assault with intent to kill, signed a statement he '(wanted to get Mrs. Zink" because she looked with disfavor on his of fer of marriage. Officers said the couple parted after dinner and Mrs. Zink went to a beer tavern. Winesett ap peared at the tavern about 1 a. m., Abbott related, walked to the bar where Mrs: Zink was seated and placed the gun at her back. He attempted to flee after the shooting but was knocked un conscious by a blow from Andy Biancone, tavern proprietor. Portland, Nov. 3. (JP) The turkey market displayed in creased strength today for small stock. Small birds sold in lim ited lots for home consumption at 20 to 22 cents a pound but the price was 2 to 4 cents less for larger. Buyers offered 15 cents for large toms and 16 to 17 cents for smaller. The buying price for hens was quoted at 18 cents with a 1-cent premium on smaller stuff. NEW FRENCH FATHERS GRANTED FURLOUGHS Paris, Nov. 3. (AP) Soldiers who have become fathers since the war began went home today to see their babies. .Three-day furloughs were made possible under a special decree in keeping with the Daladier pro gram of encouraging family life j even in wartime. The govern- j ment paid the fares. To make sure there was no I deception the fathers were re quired to bring back with them j the new birth certificates. , Vic Meyers Pays Portland, Ore., Nov. 3.
