A 1 A A 1930 1931 More Than Billion Extra Dividends Stockholders By MAX BUCKINGHAM (Copyright 1936. by United Press) New York, Dec 26. (UP) More 'than a billion dollars has been given to stockholders in extra dividends in the last two months, creating an enormous investment fund which is throwing awry ordinary year-end predictions. The stock market started dip ping in December but was checked by this reinvestment fund. In addition the fund is taking place of heavy foreign buying which was somewhat checked by threats in administration circles of restrictive measures against such investment, called by President Roosevelt "hot money." But while stocks are in this tug- of-war between year-end influence and reinvestment demand, com modities suddenly have started ad vancing spectacularly.

No small amount is reported due to tne threat of war in Europe. This could conceivably also bring buy ing into American securities from abroad despite the threats of punitive measures from here. Market Advances. For the last three days the stock market advanced slowly to be sure and offset some of the losses recorded earlier in the month. This is resulting in a year-end finish to the stock market which is bringing a paper profit of around $13,000,000,000 in trading that has been the heaviest in three years.

(AP) Acute uneasiness over European war possibilities did much Saturday to bring about flurried speculative buying of wheat, and more than 3 cents skyrocketing of prices. Enlarged profit-taking sales on the port of holders of wheat, however, caused reactions from top quotations.

Dec. 56. (AP) Extreme prospective difficulty in drawing out the last one hundred million bushels of world surplus -wheat supplies this season is just now disturbing many traders. Latest authoritative estimates ot world import requirements of wheat are bushels, and on this basis the approximate surplus over import requirements is only 83,000,000 bushels. Never before ia many years have exporting countries gone into a new crop season with such a small supply, and trade specialists assert that there appears to be a demand for every bushel of wheat that exporting countries have to spare.

Despite transient price setbacks resulting from a surprise official 'stimate that the United States aas planned for the 1937 harvest -Jie largest total of domestic win ter wheat on record, Chicago wheat prices this morning compared to a week ago were exactly unchanged to a rise of 2 cents a bushel. Simultaneously, corn showed to Hi advance, with oats unchanged, rye 1 to 218 cents up, and provisions varying from 45 cents off to 20 cents bulge. Rye, corn and oats borrow their upward trend chiefly from wheat For the most part, provisions are higher on account of likelihood of smaller supplies of hogs. Chicago Cash Grain. Chicago, Dec.

General Motors touched high of 77 and closed Thursday at 66. The chief weakness in these issues has been traced to labor difficulties which slowed up plant production and also the threat of organization which has made the customary motor bulls wary of new commitments. Meanwhile copper shares are approaching highs again. Anaconda closed Thursday at 53, after being higher during the week, with the year's high at 55. This strength is attributed to the rises in the price of copper metal as result of heavy demand, the most of which reportedly comes from armament makers abroad.
