Wall Street New York, July 27 (U.R) Trading on the New York stock exchange dwindled today to the lightest level since May 16 as Wall Street awaited an offering of Rockefeller-owned oil stocks, involving 850,000 shares, a total larger than the entire stock market volume for the past two sessions. Prices turned irregular on profit-taking in various sections. The recession was seen as purely technical although a dip at Lon don was said to have been'an in fluence. Wall Street Is rowing more and more cautious as the war news improves daily. Market men are worried over the per iod of conversion to a pc&ce eco nomy that will follow the cessa tion of hostilities in Europe, al though the experts assert that political factors could more than offset any adverse influence of an early victory.

Extra Feedings Advocated When Ulcers Present Chicago, July 27. (U.R) Per sons with ulcers of the stomach and duodenum may avoid the "flare-tips" that follow an emo tional crisis by eating every hour or two, Dr. Walter C. Alva rez, Rochester, Minn., declared today in an article in the Jour nal of the American Medical association. The extra feeding probably are most needed between 10 p. m. and 3 a. m., Dr. Alvarez said, and suggested that the patient "shouldn't wait for the expected flare-up or hemor rhage or perforation." It is well known among phy sicians, he said, that the patient with ulcer is most in danger of a flare-up or a catastrophe dur ing the hours immediately fol lowing a distressing emotional storm."

PETRILIO DEFIES MUSICIAN STRIKE By United Praia While a scattering of war plant workers remained idle to day in a few sporadic strikes throughout the country, one of the nation's most powerful union bosses, James C. Petrillo, presi dent of the American Federation of Musicians, faced arrest for or dering a walkout of eicht musi cians at radio station KSTP, Min neapolis. A bench warrant for Petrillo's arrest was Issued after the mu sic czar, ignoring an injunction restraining the musicians from striking, ordered them off the Job. It appeared unlikely, how ever, that the warrant would be served, since Petrillo lives at Chicago and Is outside the court's Jurisdiction. Meanwhile, musicians employed at the stu dio's St. Paul stations filed 8 strike notice with the state labor conciliator. The largest number of war workers on strike were idle at Cleveland, where some 1000 United Automobile Workers (AFL) held a mass meeting today to consider a War Labor Board order demanding their immedi ate return to work.
