EIGHT IRONWOOD DAILY GLOBE, IRONWOOD, BflCH. WEDNESDAY, MAY 10,1939. LWW Early Morning Advance Brought to Standstill Profit Takers. By New I'ork, May stopped dead in the midst of brisk upturn today, then slipped fractionally to lower levels. Small losses at the end of the day were in sharp contrast to forenoon activities.

The day opened on an optimistic note, with overnigh orders on traders' books. Morn ing purchases ran ahead of yesterday, and the day's volume ap preached 750.000 shares. Profit-taking was to be seen throughout the morning as trad ers turned their gains into cash and this activity, by early afternoon, had brought the advance to a virtual standstill. There were frequent periods inactivity, while speculating inter ests watched to see what the trend might be, then selling developed a' an increased tempo. Aiding the morning optimisn were two main factors, an upwan trend in American securities in Ixmdon and Amsterdam and a firm Paris bourse and rising hope thai the coal stoppage would be ended speedily by President Roosevelt's efforts.

Bonds remained close to yesterday's levels and commodities became uneven late in the day after a fairly active session. Wheat at Chicago was up 1-8 to 1 7-8 cents a bushel and corn advanced 1-8 to 1-2 cent. Cotton was off 40 to 60 cents a bale near the finish. The British pound advanced 1-16 cent while the frr.nc held unchanged in relation to the dollar.

Despite the arguments put forward by boosters, however, quite a few Democratic politicians believe Mr.

Roosevelt would be disinclined to go campaigning for a man the age of the secretary of state. Hull and Garner are both in the upper bracket of the 60's, each within nudging distance of 70. Friends of the secretary say no active steps have been taken toward organizing a campaign for him and that he is even more silent about the presidency than he was about the Democratic primary battles last summer.
