(B Associated Press) NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-The stock market broke out of its narrow trading area on the downside today. The extreme stagnation of the market in the previous session as it endeavored to break away from the downward trend of Monday and Tuesday, encouraged fresh selling and trading quickened moderately Isolated strength of some of the rails bolstered the list a little in the late morning, but the decline be- came emphatic after midday and; losses of 2 to 5 points were numer- ous. Expectations of the Richfield Oil receivership, announced in the earlyafternoon, was an unsettling influence. Shares losing 3 to 5 points in- cluded American and Foreign Power, Coca Cola, Air Reduction, Eastman, American Telephone, Al- lied Chemical and Lambert. Issues losing 2 or more included American Can, Air Reduction, Public Service1 of N. J., National Biscuit, Electric1 Power and Light, John's Manville and American Tobacco B. United1 States Steel sagged more than a1 point, going below 140 for the first) time since December, Richfield Oil broke more than a point in the early trading to go below 3, or more than 25 under its 1930 high, and the 6per cent bonds lost 13 1-2 points. Other oils were heavy. t The action of the share market was contrary to that of the bond list, which picked up under the in- fluence of further easing of credit rates. Time money again sagged with the longer maturities down to the lowest levels of half a century or more. Call money held at 1 1-2 at the loan desk, with virtually no demand. There was a brisk invest- ment demand for commercial pa- per, and lower rates were regarded as probable. f --_ ___ Michigan Affirmatives Engage Hope Debaters A Michigan debating team met a team from Hope college, of Holland, Mich., yesterday afternoon in a no-decision debate on the confer- ence question of state unemploy- ment insurance.

Detroit Leaders Honor Densmore at Banquet A group of Detroit men and wo- men, including leaders in the bus- iness life of the city, last night honored Prof. G. E. Densmore, of the speech department, who has taught them in a University exten- sion course for the last semester, at a banquet in the Hotel Statler. Henry Moser, of the speech depart- ment, was a guest. Under the pretense of "evenging" themselves upon their instructor, each student gave an after-dinner speech. One of the students acted as toastmaster. "Gravestones" were used as place-cards, and an obitu- ary poem was read to introduce each speaker.

(By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-A mailor- der liquor ring that shipped its wares C. 0. D. to all parts of the nation and an international nar- cotics syndicate that used the trans-Atlantic telephone to direct its smuggling were under investiga- tion by federal authorities today. Federal agents arrested two men and a woman in a Times Square of- fice building and seized records which they said showed the ring netted millions annually by supply- ing customers throughout the coun- try, particularly in Texas, Washing- ton, Maine and Illinois. Under successive names of the 13 & o. Novelty Co., Henry Miller Co., and Southern Agency, the agents said, the principals have solicited trade for three years from a mail- ing list of more than a thousand customers and filled their orders by express or freight, billing shipments as general merchandise. Daniel M. Lefkowitz, Benjamin Williams and Pauline Paris, alias Weiss, were held on charges of maintaining a nuisance. The narcotics conspiracy was dis- closed by Assistant United States Attorney Henry Gerson on the basis of testimony given before a federal grand jury by a convict, Jacob Bloom, serving an eight-year sen- tence in Atlanta penitentiary for smuggling.
