July IT. 19 FACE EIGHT HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH PALLS, OREGON MEAGER PULLS PROPS Br VICTOR EUBANK NEW YORK, July 17 (ffj Relatively meager offerings to day were sufficient to pull the propa from under many stock market leaders. Transfers were around 300,000 shares. Steels were among the softer groups, apparently taking be lated cognizance of the payroll boost granted "Little Steel" workers by the W.L.B. Rails did better than most other di' visions. Prominent in the downward drift were U. S. Steel, Bethle hem, General Motors, Chrysler, American Can, Wcstinghouse, Du Pont, Allied Chemical, Sears Roebuck, U. S. Rubber, Texas Co., Standard Oil (NJ), Santa Fe, American Telephone, Anaconda, U. S. Gypsum and Johns-Man-ville. Oliver Farm and White Rock edged into new high ground for the year. Bids were forthcom ing for Atlantic Coast Line, Southern Railway, Crane Co Columbia Gas, . Owens-Illinois, Western Union and Postal Tele graph preferred.

CHICAGO WHEAT CHICAGO, July 17 P) Wheat prices declined to the low est levels in nearly two weeks today, dropping at one point to about 2 cents under the preced ing session s close, as persistent hedge selling met with only lim ited buying interest. A break in cotton futures and Washington reports that anti-inflation measures were under consideration helped the down turn. Part of the selling was attributed to Minneapolis inter ests, where the market was rela tively weak. Spring wheat movement is not far off in the northwest and the storage situation in that area is also unfavorable, traders said. Wheat closed 11c to ISc lower, July ?1.161, September $1.18.

July 17 (ff) Navy planes, motors Idling to reduce possibility of detection, glided down paths of moonlight to attack the Japanese fleet during the battle of Midway, the navy disclosed today. In the moonlit foray, two en emy vessels were hit squarely by torpedoes launched from the planes. One, the navy said, probably was sunk. The four torpedo planes es caped unscathed from the at tack. But one ran out of gas en route back to its base. Down at the sea the plane and its crew floated for more than two days before rescuers arrived. The plane, buffeted by the waves was severely damaged and had to be destroyed. Lieutenant William L. Rich ards. 32, Collingswood, N. J., leader of the flight, told the story of the raid In these words: "The leading plane gave the attack signal and broke off in a glide with engines throttled back. Target selected was tho last ship in the first column. This ship presented the largest silhouette and had been report ed as possibly a carrier. At close range, it was Identified as a transport or cargo ship of about 7,000 tons. "The leading plane's torpedo run was made up the moon path and from slightly abaft tho enemy's port beam. We dropped our torpedo from low altitude and at close range. No opposition was encountered.
