"I 'AKRON BEACON JOURNAL' TWENTY-TWO TUESDAY, MAY 3, 1932 LIQUIDATION AGAIN SERVES TO FORCE STOCK PRICES DOWN Kreuger Associate Fill VETERANS A BUSINESS MAN'S PHILOSOPHY By WILLIAM FEATHER. Western Union Shares Sell At Lowest Point In Past Generation ASSERTS JONES ADMITTED HOLDUP WHO'S NEWS TODAY Pearl Buck Unswerving "Poor'" On English, She "Wins Pulitzer Prize A FEW years ago a business woman in New York set up a department for a large newspaper to serve as a testing bureau for advertised products. Part of her servioe was to advise manufacturers on how to make their goods appeal more completely to woman. She made some startling discoveries of the inadequacy of some products. For example, kitchen sinks designed for a height which no woman could work at; washing machines on which the operating levers were unhandy or hard to understand; and food products on which the directions were inaccurate or indistinct.

Frequently she brought ob I Mil jections and corrections to manufacturers, to be William Feather answered with the statement, "Oh, we think anybody would know about that." To which she replied that over at Grand Central station dozens of people stop each night' to ask what time the midnight train will leave, and that it is not safe for a seller to assume that his public has any intelligence at all, Commodity Markets Bedford Attorney Councilman Says Suspect Confessed To Robbery QUIZZED BY G0TTWALD Although a Summit county grand Jury failed to indict him tat the robbery, a witness testifying today in Sterling Jones' $100,000 suit against the Macedonia-Northfield bank and others, declared on the stand that Jones had confessed to him that he robbed the bank. "It looks bad for you Jones," the witness, Lester R. Yoder, Bedford attorney and city councilman, said he remarked to the young Macedonia farmer after the latter's arrest. "If you're guilty, you had better admit it and probably because of your family's standing you will be paroled." Questioned By Cottwald "Well, I did it," said Jones consented briefly. Attorney Don Gottwald, representing Jones in the suit cross examined Yoder vigorously and sought to show that another "witness present in the room where the alleged conversation with Jones occurred didn't hear any such confession.

Jones is suing the bank at Macedonia, the Burns Detective agency, C. W. Seiberllng, vice president of the Seiberllng Rubber and 'a director of the bank, Lee H. Beers, cashier, and W. Chamberlin, "a director.

Robbed In 1930 The bank robbery was staged June 17, 1930 and Jories Was taken in custody after his automobile had been declared to have been recog-ni3d as the car in which the bandit escaped with $1,000 in cash. The Bums agency operators assisted In gathering evidence to support the charge against Jones but Judge L. S. Pardee nolled the case when Assistant County Prosecutor George Hargreaves admitted the evidence was insufficient. Trial of the present case Is being conducted in Judge Carl C.

Transportation Committee Wants Customs Retained RECAPTURE CLAUSE HIT Additional voices protecting the proposed abolition of Akron's customs port of entry were raised Monday as members of the transporta tion committee of the chamber of commerce met at Akron City club. Members of the committee, chair-maned by E. F. Malaney, traffic manager of the Robinson Clay Products agreed to write Rep resentative Francis Seiberllng and Senators Simeon Fess and Robert J. Bulkley of the effect of closing the port upon their firms.

Asks Recapture Objection The committee membership Includes representatives of both large and small Akron Industries, the railroads, and motor transportation companies. In a formal resolution the com mittee unanimously requested that the board of trustees of the chamber appiove an amendment to the transportation act eliminating therefrom the provision to recapture excess earnings. A bill to accomplish this is now before the house of representatives. Says Flan Impracticable The transportation act of 1920 established 53-4 per cent as a reasonable return on railroad Investments and provided that 50 per cent of all profit over 6 per cent should be turned over to the government and reloaned to less profitable railroads. It is the contention of the local committee that this system has never worked and cant be worked, Inasmuch as the Interstate commerce commission has been forced to sue In every case Involving recapture, and that the commission maintains that $310,000,000 are due the fund from the railroads.

This claim seriously affects the credit of the roads, it Is said. STUDY INSURANCE FOR OHIO JOBLESS Governor's Is Conducting Inquiry At Cincinnati CINCINNATI, May 3.

Uncompromising revolters In the house today undertook the final dismantling of the economy bill. Big cuts In veterans' allowances, amounting In all to some were at Issue. Few disputed that.

most If not all of this section of the bill would be thrown out, to follow provisions cutting pay of federf.1 workers, consolidating the army and navy, and others which had been counted on to save more than $200,000,000 to the government next year, but could not ride the storm of congressional disapproval. The defeated leaders rested their chances on forcing the members to put their names down on roll calls on each major section rejected. This procedure, permitted after the amending process is completed, was to be the final step before passage of the bill, tentatively set for this evening. Expect Desertions The record votes, the leaders hoped, would find a great many members deserting the opposition to void the wrath of economy-seeking constituents who will have the final say in the November elections. The disposition of the house on veterans' matters was well attested yesterday in its passage, 316 to 16, of a pension bill for widows and orphans of World war soldiers, a measure that within five years Is expected to be costing the nation around $100,000,000 annually.

The house did exclude a clause which would have given pensions also to aged dependent mothers and fathers of veterans whose deaths were not attributable to the war, but no such limit was placed on the widows and orphans. Facilitate Passage To the opposition of the administration, supporters of the bill answered that the act msrely did for crippled of the World war what the nation already has done for dependents of veterans of other conflicts. The democatic leadership facilitated the bill's passage. Just before that, the house enacted also one of its own economic ideas, passing the Goldsborough bill ordering the treasury and reserve board to fix the dollar's purchasing power at its average value between 1921 and 1929. This also was objected to by the administration, but its sponsors in sisted it was the one way to restore prosperity and through lt went, 289 to 60.

Controlling the volume of currency and' the market for government securities, plus adjusting discount rates, were advanced as the means to peg the dollar's value. CHANGE IN STOCK TAX BEING SOUGHT WASHINGTON, May 3. (AP) Modification of the controversial stock and bond sales tax voted by tne House was undertaken today in the senate finance committee. The end of the committee's work on the billion-dollar revenue measure was near, with leaders confident it would be done tomorrow night. Two alternatives, to the one-fourth ol 1 per cent tax imposed by the house, and vigorously protested by the stock exchange, are pending.

One is the administration proposal for a flat four cents a share tax. The other is a "suggestion by Senator Couzens for a graduated levy applying according to the value of the stock. Ask Brown'i Vlewi Views of Postmaster General Brown also were sought today on the house increase of one-cent in postal rates. Approval of this provision was in prospect. The committee is working five hours a day in a determined effort to get the vital bill to the senate before the end of the week, and in a determination to raise the more than billion dollars necessary to balance the 1933 budget.

The tariff now is due for another round before the bill gets out of committee. REICHSBANK REPORT BERLIN. May 3.

PENNEY IS HARD HIT By GEORGE T. HUGHES Beacon Journal Special Dispatch WALL STREET, NEW YORK, Mav 3. Still lacking encouragement from any outside developments, the stock market today continued its downward drift, although at a slower rate.

Opening prices were slightly higher and the Initial trades, representing apparently short covering, brought about a moderate improve-. This phase was succeeded by a re newal of the distressed liquidation In specific Issues which has been a feature of the market so long. Penney Slips Again 0.

other weak stock Monday, after early resistance made a new low. The only explanation possible for weakness In stocks representing so strongly entrenched trade was forced telling. The feature of the utility list was Western Union, which sold under $23 a share during the morning, the lowest in a generation. Amer ican Telephone, relatively steady at the start, came down within a irac, tlon of Its old low. North Amert can was weak and Consolidated Gas which like Telephone had rallied at the opening, reacted later.

Railway stocks were not as active as the Industrials, but they showed no rallying power. Atchison was the one under greatest pre sure, with the suggestion that a fui Jier dividend readjustment was possible at the next meeting. $19,000,000 Loss A compilation of February earnings statements of 164 class one railroads showed net operating income this year of $22,190,169 against $27,707,734 a year ago and a net loss after rents and Interest this year of $19,647,345 against $10,054,622 In February, 1931. Those Inclined to take a constructive position with regard to railway securities were confining their commitments to bonds. It was again the oil list that furnished the one bright sopt and that was only comparative.

Standard Oil of California declared the regular quarterly dividend of 50 cents a snare, and the stock improved fractionally. For the first quarter the company reported profits equal to 22 cents a share against 33 cents a year ago. On the other hand no action was taken by the directors of Manhattan Shirt on the common dividend of that stock. Mack Trucks reported a net loss of In the first quarter against a net loss of $178,737 in the similar 1931 period. GULBERTSON SEEKS SHARPER PENALTIES Eule Would Cost Player 750 Points For Non-Vulner-able Tricks NEW YORK, May 3.

(AP)-Ely Culbertson has announced that a new International contract bridge code to Inflict sharper penalties on non-vulnerable sets probably will be In effect by early fall. The new system has been tentatively approved by the card committee of the Whist club, which is the official lawmaking body for bridge in America. It is next to be submitted to the card committee of the Portland club in London. Would Cost 750 The present penalty of 50 points for set of one trick, undoubled and non-vulnerable will be unchanged, but the second, third and fourth undertrlcks will cost 100 points each, and the fifth and all subsequent undertrlcks will cost 200 points each. Under the present code the undoubled, non-vulnerable set of six tricks costs the declarer 300 points.

Under the proposed new code It will cost 750 points. Bridge experts said adoption of the new code would virtually eliminate psychic bidding. Discover 'Minnie' Is 'Barnacle Bill' CHICAGO, May 3.
