BUSINESS IS
HOLDING ITS
BIGUPTREND
Slight Hesitation Is
Noted During Week
But Upward Swing
Is Unchecked
NEW YORK, May 10. (A*>—A slight
hesitation in the forward movement
of business this week was reported
Friday In the weekly trade review
by Dun St Bradstreet.
“A pause in the forward movement
of business was revealed by reports
emanating this week from manufac
turers, wholesalers and retailers in
various parts of the country," the
review said.
“Thus far. however, the recession
appears to be only uifling propor
tions and there was nothing to indi
cate a change in the upward trend.
"Among factors mentioned as con
tributing to the hesitancy were the
seasonal slackening of industry, the
vagaries of the weather, and the un
certainties regarding the outcome of
national legislation.
"As neither manufacturers nor re
tailers are holding burdensome in
ventories, their positions are viewed
as favorable for a prompt response to
stimulating influences which a
change to more seasonal weather un
doubtedly will bring, with hopes
strong for a continuation of the up
ward movement before the close of
the current month. •••
"After a slow beginning, due to
the cold and rainy weather, retail
sales widened In nearly all parts of
the country, and there was less un
evenness to the gains reported than
for the week preceding. ••• For the
country as a whole, nevertheless re
tail sales were estimated at not more
than 2 to 8 per cent In excess of the
figures for the corresponding week
last year."
Wholesale buying was reported
Running in excess of the comparative
yr ird of 1934 in most divisions but
less than the previdus week.
The review continued: "Industrial
manufacturing activity continues
strong in most divisions, but the
average rate of operations was re
duced slightly from that of a week
earlier •••.**
The Weather
Bast Texas (east of 100th meri
dian): Partly cloudy Friday night

showers in east portion Friday after
noon or Friday night; slightly warm
er in west portion Friday night, and

GEORGIAN TO
TAKE STUMP
Talmadge Admit* He Has
No Idea What He Expects
To Gain
ATLANTA, May 10. (A*)—Appar
ently with the power to name Geor
gia's delegation to the next nations
■al convention. Gov. Eugene Tal
madge plans to take the stump in
other parts of the country against
re-nominalion of President Roose
velt next year.
Under Georgia custom, the dem
ocratic state committee, controlled
by the governor, can fix the plan
of nominating or may itself appoint
the state’s 24 delegates to the next
convention.
The national convention could seat
this delegation or throw it out and
recognise another if it came from
Georgia and made a sufficient show
ing.
Asked where he is heading in his
fight on the national administration,
the governor replied:
'‘111 tell you the truth, I don’t
know where I am heading, but the
country is going to Hell if something
isn’t done and that right quick."
He has booked two addresses for
New York on May 18. one over the
radio and another before the Georgia
society. At least one of them is ex
pected to be a renewal of his at
tack on the New Deal.
The governor will invade the mid
dlewest on May 20 to continue his
attack, on the administration in an
address before the University of
Chicago. He will hurry to Providence.
R. I., for an address before the Ro
tary club on May 21.

Death Reports
About Robinson
Claimed False
WASHINGTON. May 10. W —
Justice Department agents Friday
piessed their seven-months hunt
E0( Thomas H. Robinson. Jr., al
leged kidnaper, despite police ru
mors that Robinson is dead.
The chief basis for this theory
among officers is that none of the
$50.0000 ransom paid to Robinson
late in 1934 has been found, with
the exception of $500 he is said to
have given his wife in Indian
apolis. She accompanied the re
leased kidnap victim. Mrs. Alice
Speed Stoll, on her return to
Louisville, Ky.. until they were halt
ed by federal agents.
J. Edgar Hoover, director of the
Federal Bureau to Investigation,
Friday said his men will keep up
the hunt for Robinson until it is
definitely established that he is
dead.
Robinson's wife. Frances, and
father. Thomas H. Robinson. Sr.,

for complicity in the kidnaping.
