Sept. 20,-Buying and selling flurries alternated in today's lively stock market with the former definitely having the advan tage. The ticker tape lagged for a brief; interval after the opening. Deal ings then slowed and initial gains were reduced or cancelled. A burst of purchasing orders again swamped the recording machinery following announcement that President Tru man had asked for Secretary Wal laces resignation. Advances in the secondary surge ranged from 1 to 8 points for industrials although rails were a bit diffident. The pace then slowed once more and top marks were trimmed here and there near the close. A smattering of losers persisted. Transfers were in the neighborhood of 2,800.000 shares. Pennsylvania Railroad hit a two year low as officials predicted the system this year wfould suffer its first deficit on record.

U. S. Outlines World Trade Views in Plan To Reduce Tariffs By tht Atiocioted Pr*i* The United States took the lead today in a United Nations campaign to boost world-wide trade by level ing prewar trade barriers. In a move to hasten establish ment of an international trade or ganization, the State Department1 last night outlined the American idea of rules that should prevail By this action, the United States became the first country to put into concrete form any of the many theories on how the United Nations should co-operate in the economic field. Likely to Be Only Draft. The American 20,000-word “white book" on commercial policy prob ably will be the only draft charter discussed when 19 nations meet in London October 15 to prepare for a later full-scale United Nations trade conference. Although Britain and France have agreed to support the same objec tives. neither country has drawn up any definite plan. The United States suggested that members of the new organization agree to: 1. Reduce tariffs and eventually eliminate preferences. 2. Subsidize exports only in "ex ceptional cases." 3. Limit, the use of quotas on im ports from various countries 4. Eventually abolish exchange re strictions. 5. Counteract the influence of cartels and combines in interna ' tional trade. 6. Regulate the disposal of sur pluses. Soviet Reaction Awaited. Russia's reaction to the American suggestion was awaited with interest ; because the Soviet Union is the only j one of 15 countries that has not 'accepted a United States invitation to begin negotiations for tariff re ductions some time ip 1947. The long-range objective of the | proposals, as explained by Under secretary of State Clayton, is to [provide equal access to the world markets by all countries, thus even tually raising standards of living everywhere. Mr. Clayton coutioned a news conference, however, against ex pecting sensational results over night in anv drive to end long established trade restrictions. Joining the international trade organization only means, he said, that a country promises to nego tiate with others in solving eco nomic problems. The actual agree ment to do anything about these problems may take years of dis cussion. Louisiana 'Case Bill' Gets Court Test Today By the Associoted Press NEW IBERIA. La., Sept. 20 — Louisiana's ‘‘Little Case Bill" will get its first, practical test today as a result of a suit filed by the Inter national Salt Co. which seeks legally 1 to block striking union workers from interfering with employes who want to continue working for the com pany. The suit was filed in 16th Judicial Court here against the AFL Inter national Chemical Workers Union. Local 27. It charges the labor group with discharging firearms at night around the salt plant and around homes of employes still working, throwing stones at the automobiles and homes of these workers, and with acts of physical violence against some workers and attempts to frighten present and prospective employes who seek to work at the salt mines. The suit charges the union with ®ommitting 26 specific acts in viola tion of the “Little Case Bill" which prohibits acts of violence or intimi dation by strikers of persons desir ing to work. Company officials said the diffi culty stemmed from a strike by the union last March. Judges S. O. Landry and James D. Simon have issued orders to 16 strikers named as defendants in the case to show cause for their alleged actions against the company. The defendants were to appear in court this morning when the hear ing for a preliminary injunction was to be held. Chicago Grain CHICAGO.

Irving Goldberg, in the DHC pub lic relations office, quoted William A Ziegler, general manager, DHC. as declining to release to the public the names of other bidders but said additional offers have been received. Under the veterans’ plan, 50-year leases would be issued on terms en abling residents to complete their payments within 25 years with monthly payments the same a* rentals. Part of the monthly pay ments, all of which now goes for rental, would be applied toward payment for the leasehold. Pur chasers would be permitted to sub lease or sell their equity to “accep table tenants," the announcement stated. Priorities Planned. Priority announced would be first to residents of Fairlington and a* vacancies occur, units would be of fered to veterans with honorable discharge and then to persons now in the service. Nonveterans would be given third highest consideration. From time to time preferred stock would be issued ultimately ex changeable for voting common stock in the corporation. Listed as officers of the group are C. Louis Knight, attorney, president; M. Maxwell Caskie. jr attorney, and Hugh O. Davis, political scien tist, vice presidents.
