WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, Dec. 17.—A crash in prices of Winnipeg wheat and fur ther weakness in United States Steel preferred stock were unsettling influences in the stock market Fri day, although volume shrank sharp ly and prices resisted pressure throughout the day. Toward the close, shorts cov ered. Their operations brought a recovery that left prices irregular at the finish. Ability of the mar ket to withstand such events as those listed above gave courage to the constructive element and forced bears to cover. Wheat Options Rally At one time Winnipeg December wheat was at a record low of 38 cents, ofT 3v4 cents from the pre vious close. Winnipeg May at 40':. off 4 cents and July at 41 "i. off 3 T s cents. All Winnipeg wheat options closed with losses of 2% cents a bushel. Chicago wheat was down also but it rallied from the lows and closed off 74 cent to 1 cent a bushel. Other grains closed irregular, all slightly lower except oats which was off % to up 74 cent. Cotton held small gains. Bonds were irregular with foreign issues firm and public utilities up slightly in the domestic section. United States government bonds were slightly down after their recent sharp gains. . English Pound Gains Foreign exchange trading offered little of interest. The pound ster ling continued to gain, while the French franc held slightly above the low of the year. Oil shares were unsettled by price reductions by principal petroleum buyers. Coppers also were down as a group. Gold mining issues were features of the upside. Homestake jumped 7 points to 160, within 3‘4' points of its record high. Dome Mines firmed up on declaration by the company of an extra dividend of 10 cents a share. Weakness in Steel preferred brought the issue below 59 and helped depress the common stock. Other steel issues were moderately lower.

Boston Tea Party Still Exists The old London shop which sent the tea to Amer ica for the Boston Tea Party still does business un concernedly over the same counter which saw that tea shipped. ... Its business sign, a crown with BY MILTON BRONNER, European Manager, NEA Service. , T ONDON, Dec. 17.—1n this year 1932, when Americans have been celebrating the bicentenary of the birth of George Washington, it is possible here in London to walk right out of the twentieth century and into the eighteenth. Specifically, to step off the side walk and into the shop that sent a certain cargo of tea to Boston, little knowing it was destined for the most famous tea party of all time. Though it is nearly 160 years since that Nov. 28, 1773, when the tea ship arrived from London, the firm that sent it still is doing business, weighing tea on the same scales in which the historic tea was weighed, wrapping it on the same counter. Venture down into London’s “City" the British Wall street stroll along Leadenhall street and turn off into a narrow little thor oughfare called Creechtirch Lane. Stop at No. 14. There you will see gently sway ing a metal crown gilded to look like gold and from it suspended three golden sugar loaves. You are at the business premises of Davison, Newman & Cos. The concern has been selling tea, sugar and spices for nearly 300 years. It was and consignment of its tea on the good ship Dartmouth, which was boarded by American pa triots in 1773 and dumped into the murky waters of Boston's harbor. And it was this firm which paid the bills. # tt n NOW cross the threshold and you are in a place where time seems to have no value. There is the old pendulum clock at which, back in 1773, the clerks cast an eye, one saying to another: "Aye, we’ll have to hurry with this tea-packing, for yon ship Dart mouth will soon be off for America.” There hang suspended from the ceiling the old-fashioned scales on which the tea was weighed. There DOW-JONES SUMMARY Imports into Canada during November totaled *37.769,047. against *45.968.181 in November. 1931, and exports $45,944,520. against $57,486,950.

Thursday a shipments none. three metal sugar loaves hanging beneath it, is the same, and A. F. Skerritt, the present proprietor, weighs out tea on the same scales which weighed that historic cargo. is the old oakeY counter on which it was packed. In the back are the old canisters in which tea in bulk was con tained. The only thing that has changed is the business. Up to forty-two years ago the Arm occupied its orig inal quarters in Fenehurch street. Then, as the building was to be de stroyed, a move was made to Cree church Lane. But all else goes on just the same. It’s one of the romances of busi ness. Back in the year 1650, Daniel Rawlinson boldly announced himself a tea and sugar merchant at the sign of “The Crown and Three Sugar Loaves." Tea had only been introduced into England forty years before. It still was a luxury for the rich, costing SSO a pound. n a *f T>UT Rawlinson prospered. He sold to the titled. He made friends with the great. He was an acquaintance of that famous naval administrator, Samuel Pepys, im mortal because of his diary. And in that diary Pepys records how Rawlinson’s home was invaded by the great plague and later de stroyed by the great fire, which proved a blessing in disguise, be cause it stopped the plague. The shop was rebuilt and inherited by the founder’s son, Thomas. He not only knew how to sell tea, but became an alderman, then sher iff, then lord mayor of London and was knighted. Partners came into the firm, and it became Rawlinson, Davison and Newman. A few years afterward the old name of Rawlinson was dropped and the firm became Davi son, Newman & Cos., which it has remained down to this day. It was in 1773 that the firm en tered American history. England had placed a tax on the tea that was shipped to the American col onies. The colonies boycotted British tea and used tea smuggled from Holland. Nevertheless, Davison, Newman <fc Cos, consigned a ship ment to their agents in Boston. The rest of the story is told in a plaintiff report made by Francis Rotch to the British commissioners of cus toms in Boston Jan. 4, 1774, some months after the tea party. Rotch did not realize that his tory had been written. All he knew was that he was out his money. HERE is his plain prosaic plaint: “In the Province of Massachusetts Bay ‘‘To the Hon’ble Board of Com missioners of His Majesty’s Cus toms in America: “The Memorial of Francis Rotch of Boston in New England, part owner of the ship Dartmouth, now in the harbour of Boston, hum bly sheweth: “That the said ship on the 28th November arrived in the port of Boston from London with sundry merchandise amongst which was eighty whole and thirty-four half chests of tea shipped in London and consigned to Messrs.

BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Dec. 17.—A 4-cent break at Winnipeg and new record lows at both Liverpool and Winni peg served to undermine wheat on the Board of Trade Friday. Prices broke 2 cents at one time with May and July at now lows for the year. There was nothing in the general run of nevfrs to account for the de clines. Canada is in active compe tition for the export trade and a wave of stop-loss selling was the major factor in the break. Chi cago made a small recovery on buy ing against bids and on resting orders. Corn Options Strong Corn made an excellent show of resistance and held tightly to the previous closing levels, never getting more than a small fraction lower and being higher part of the ses sion. Oats weakened but rallied. Rye had some strength on pur chases against sales of corn. At the close wheat was 74 to % cent lower with corn 74 to 74 cent higher, oats \ cent lower to % cent higher, rye 74 to % cent lower and barley unchanged. Provisions strong with hogs and bullish statistics. The increasing competition be tween Australia. Argentina and Canada for the export trade pushed the Winnipeg market down for the third successive day and caused Liverpool to decline. The latter market closed 17* to 174 cents low* er after March touched 43 T * cents. The market was highly nervous during the morning with trading restricted as operators watched for eign markets. Cash prices were 1 to 174 cents lower. Receipts were 5 cars. Oats and Rye Weak Corn met selling on the weak cables and the weakness in wheat at the start, but showed good re cuperative power, rallying shortly after the opening to stand un changed to % cent higher at mid session. Trading thereafter turned quiet with operators awaiting de velopments. Cash sales were 26,000 bushels and 21,000 bushels were booked. Cash prices were 74 cent lower .to 74 cent higher with 60 cars received. Oats was unchanged to 74 cent lower at midsession and rye was 74 to % cent down. Changes in oats were of little significance as the market held to a waiting attitude in an extremely dull session.
