Early Liquidation for Profits
Is Reversed in After
noon for Sizeable Gains
New York, Nov. 3. 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. Yel
low Truck, Greyhound and Twin
Coach were in demand on vis
ions of heavy truck orders from
abroad.

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. (IP) i
Washington's lieutenant gover- j
nor, Vic Meyers, contributed $5
to the city's coffer for traffic ;
violations. He walked into police
iieadquarters, laid down a $5 1
ill and explained, "Here is j
hat I owe you for four tickets
got in mid-summer."
