NEW YORK, Oct. 5.—Demand
picked up a little In the bond mar
ket today after an uncertain start.
Neither buyers nor sellers were
Willing to get very far out on a limb
In view of Hitler's speech tomorrow,
and volume was appreciably under
some recent fast sessions.
The Government bond section
hadn't decided which way to go at
the start of the last hour and gains
of around 8-32 point were offset by
• small losses.
Rails were fairly lively at slightly
higher prices, including Nickel Plate
4'2s, Baltimore & Ohio convertible
41,s. Delaware & Hudson refunding
4s and Illinois Central 434s.
Others on top included Common
wealth Edison 3'2s. Walworth 4s and
Bethlehem Steel 3V2S.
The foreign dollar group presented
a ragged price line. Some Italian
and Belgian loans advanced, but
German 5n>s of '65 and Argentine 4s
lost ground.

Rayon Consumption
In 9 Months Soars
Far Above 1938
Volume Already Near
Total Recorded for
All of Last Year
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. Oct. 5.—Consump
tion of rayon yarn and staple fiber
in the United States during the first
nine months of this year totaled
326,700,000 pounds, practically equal
ing the entire 1938 annual consump
tion of 327,200,000 pounds. Rayon
Organon stated today. «
Use of rayon staple fiber showed
the greater gain, nine months’ con
sumption aggregating 68,500,000
pounds against 53,100,000 pounds for
the full year 1938. Rayon yarn con
sumption amounted to 258,200,000
pounds for the nine months com
pared with 274,100,000 pounds for all
of last year.
While record rayon consumption
is expected for 1939, the Organon
does not anticipate that the fourth
quarter will exceed the record total
of 122,000,000 pounds estimated for
the three months ended September
30. With production at approximate
capacity the third-quarter total
was made possible only by drawing
on producer’s stocks w'hich now
equal less than two week's supply.

Foreign Exchange
NEW YORK Oct ft up*.—The British
pound levelled off today after several ses
sions of fast gains in relation to the
dollar
Bankers said the slight reaction—the
pound lost less than *2 cent—t$as prob
ably nothing more than a consolidation
of the recent gams.
Helping to strengthen the unit, foreign
exchange men said, were covering of short
holdings and restrictions on luxury im
ports into England as well as lower prices
for British exports outside sterling areas
since the outbreak of the war.
The Swiss iranc and guider edged for
ward. but the French franc and belga
declined narrowly. The belga. off .03 of a

Jersey Wage Average
Highest Since 1930
By the Associated Press.
NEWARK, N. J„ Oct. 5.—New
Jersey industrial workers are re
ceiving now an average weekly wage i
which is higher than at any time I
since 1930, a memorandum pre- i
pared by the State Chamber of ]
Commerce said today.
TVlP mpmnrnnrinm cHntirc “o fo_ !
vorable trend has been established j
in New Jersey and that econom- '
ically we are on the way up.
Chamber President Robert T. Bow- 1
man said. The average industrial 1
pay envelope for a week, based on J
earnings in the quarter ending last i
June, contained $26.42, Bowman I
said, a figure slightly higher than ;
the $26.39 national average during
the same quarter. ]
Wages today, Bowman said, may '
ae slightly higher. The June figure, 1
ne added, is 9 per cent below the ,
level recorded at the "boom” peak
n December, 1928.

Boosting Price
.n
Domestic Quotation
Raised Half a Cent
To 12Vi Cents . %
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Oct. 5.—All pro- '
ducing and smelting interests today '* *
advanced the price of domestic cop
per 4 cent a pound td 12 Vi cents
following the action of one producer *
in boosting the metal yesterday.
Establishment of the uniform
higher price came about within a V
few minutes alter actual sales of V?
copper at the 124-cent level were M
reported. Fair-sized tonnages were f
said to have changed hands.
Several producers and smelters id
failed to post quotations after the i'/
hoist yesterday, but trade circles %
said they continued to take care of /
regular customers at 12 cents until V
they decided to join the movement 4
in the forenoon today. v
Copper has not sold at 124 cents
since October 5, 1937, except for one
day early in September when a
producer raised it to that level from
18 cents, but canceled the higher
quotation when other interests lg
nored the move. On May 8 this
jear the red metal dropped to its
1939 low of 10 cents a pound.
li. S. Industrialists Warned
Against Plant Sabotage
NEW YORK, Oct. 5.—Warning is
given to industry' by Factory Man
agement and Maintenance t<j take
steps lor the prevention ot sabotage
m plants during the present war
emergency. It is pointed out that
the problem in World War days
was especially serious long before
America entered the war. The cost
to American industry then is esti
mated at $150,000,000 in material
damage, exclusive of losses in pro
duction and profits.
Incendiary fires and explosions
were the saboteurs chief activities.
To forestall serious loss in the pres
ent emergency the National Fire
Piotection Association has suggest
ed four pointers. These include: (1>
Keeping the amount of material to
burn in one place as small as pos
sible; (21 providing construction
that tends to retard the spread of
fire, such as use of fire doors, fire
wails and the like: (3< employing
fire protection equipment, such as
automatic sprinklers, automatic fire
alarms and fire extinguishers; (4»
using adequate and efficient watch- -*
man service.
Safety experts emphasize the ne
cessity' for adequate fencing of
plants and guarding of gates. The
Safety Research Institute urges that -
fire extinguishers be grouped at
points where special hazards exist to
cope with the full extent and type
of fire may be anticipated.
