Page 8 Freeport (Ill.) Journal-Standard, Market Prices Tumble NEW YORK (AP) Stock market prices tumbled in heavy trading today against a backdrop of uncertainty about the international currency situation. The noon Dow Jones average of 30 industrials was off 10.39 at 930.76. Declines led advances on the New York Stock Exchange by nearly 6 to 1. Analysts said the heavy profit taking was partly in response to anxiety about the currency situation stemming from a news report that U.S. officials are hinting of a further delay in dollar devaluation.

They said another depressant was news that mutual fund redemptions rose to a record level last month. Losses ran through virtually every groups of stocks. Profit taking had appeared midway through Monday's session. After gaining nearly points, the Dow industrial average closed behind 1.73. 11.

Grain CHICAGO (AP) A possibly stronger demand for soybean meal and oil generated buying interest in the soybean futures complex on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Soybean meal advanced $1 a ton while soybean oil moved ahead some 15 points and soybeans advanced cents a bushel. Wheat and corn prices were irregular but oats were weak. Iced broilers also were irregular and trade very light. Competing meals and oil have been strong at the cash level for several days and the demand has been active for soybean meal and oil futures.

Overnight, there was a report of an earthquake in Peru and trade sources thought its effect might force lower production of fish meal. This brought strong buying activity into meal and soybeans and, as always, as prices moved ahead shorts were forced to cover. Rain over wide sections of the Plains and Southwest states was considered beneficial to the winter wheat crop and this influenced selling that produced a loss of nearly 1 cent a bushel. Some recovery followed later. Corn and oats trade was light but there was a good commercial support move in deferred options in the corn pit.

Commercial interests were active sellers in oats. After about an hour, soybeans were to cents a bushel higher, March 3.42½; wheat was unchanged to cent lower, March 1.62½; corn was lower to higher, March 1.20⅝ and oats were to lower, March cents.

Galena 232-7315 Construction Tie-Up Skirts Freeport Area A current wage dispute between area iron workers and the Northern Illinols Building Contractors Association has had no immediate impact in Freeport.

Members of Iron Workers Local 498 based in Rockford have not been working this week, tying up several major projects in Rockford and in Beloit and Janesville, Wis. No picket lines have been set up at any construction location. One major Freeport project just under way, the new Freeport Clinic facility on West Stephenson Street, is a concrete frame building and does not use construction steel, according to a clinic spokesman. George Chabucos, business agent for the iron workers local, said the current problem concerns the refusal of the contractors to resubmit a portion of a wage increase negotiated last year to the federal Pay Board for acceptance. A $1.25 per hour pay raise gained in 1971 was tied up in the federal wageprice freeze.

Subsequently the Pay Board granted 65 cents of the raise retroactive to June 1, 1971, but balked at the rest. Further negotiations resulted in a 25- cent wage increase being requested of. the Pay Board. The federal body turned that down, but Washington, D.C., representatives of the iron workers now say the Pay Board will grant a' 15-cent increase if the contractors' association will agree to it, Chabucos said. Further talks between the union and contractors on the wage issue were being held this afternoon.

Chabucos said iron workers are now receiving a package hourly salary of $8.97, including wages, fringe benefits and employer contributions to training, welfare and pension funds. West Germans Start Programs For Dieting FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) "Food makes a belly and a belly makes esteem," says a German proverb. But obesity is no longer a Teutonic ideal. West Germans are being exhorted to "slenderize through sports" in a national physical fitness drive that has produced more converts than any other postwar promotional campaign. "The -Trimm Dich Durch Sport-started two years ago to encourage people of all ages to get up from their desks and easy chairs and start moving their bodies," says Karl Bellmer of the German Sports Federation, initiator of the fitness campaign.

"Trimm Dich uses humor rather than threats to convince Germans that sports lead to pleasure as well as good health," adds Bellmer, a slender man of 43. More than half of West Germany's labor force is forced to quit jobs health reasons 10 years before the normal retirement age 65. And physicians blame a quarter of a million heart attacks each year and countless circulatory ailments on the reluctance of West Germans to exercise. Trimm Dich, however, appears to have started a trend toward voluntary weight watching and exercising, especially among middle class Germans. Pilot programs are under way in factories and offices to test the concept of 10-minute exercise pauses during the working day.
