WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, (UP) The bear market of 1953 suffered a new selling jolt in the past week. Prices fell to new lows for more than 16 months. Several hundred issues set new lows for more than a year.

Trading picked up on the selloff. It was a short week cut by the Junior Woman's Club's Main Project, Southridge Kindergarten, Opens Season Club frolics has been a source of Home From Korea STUART Dennis S. "Corky" Hudson, son of Bank President and Mrs. Hudson of St. Lucie Estates, arrived home this week after 15 months of the toughest battles on Heartbreak Ridge.

There were weeks at a time when his parents failed to hear from him and the news from Korea was all disheartening most of the time during such lapses of mail. A native of Stuart, graduate of the local high school and for four years a student at the University of Florida, Corky was assigned to Korea soon after he completed basic training at Fort Jackson, SC. He served with the famed 179th Regiment of the 45th Division and he says One really has to wear the same clothes for a month at a time to truly appreciate a shower in a tiled bath several times a day. But I can't help saying I enjoyed my stay in Korea and must admit I was about as lucky as one could be," he added. Aftpr three wppks here he will report to Fort Benning for re-as-i widely dropping prices around noon signment for another six months that session, riutv in this tour of enlistment.

"Ii But the situation differed from GI Who Struck Swede Is To Be Court -Martialed PANMUNJOM, Sept. 13 (UP) The U.S. Army announced today it would court-martial an American soldier accused of striking a Swedish member of a neutral nations inspection team in Korea. 'The incident was One of a series the Communists have seized upon for propaganda purposes to threat- en the smooth running of the Ko rean armistice supervision. In another, the Communists accused the U.S.

Army of "kidnap ing" a Polish member of a truce team although the Pole bolted voluntarily to the American side and announced he was doing so through fear of communism. Another threat to the armistice relations was the Communist refusal to free 944 Americans held by them, possibly including Capt. James A. Van Fleet son of the former 8th Army commander. A double jet ace, Capt.

Harold E. Fischer of Swea City, la. also is believed still held by the Beds. The Communists used the incident of the American soldier to charge the United States with an "audacious and insolent act" violating the diplomatic immunity of the neutral nation armistice teams guarding the Korean armistice. Headquarters of the Korean communications zone in Taegu confirmed that a special court-martial had been ordered for Pfc.

Willard E. Armstrong of Louisville, to begin Monday. i The Army said Armstrong will be charged with assault and violation of a special directive spelling out the immunity offered to neutral nations Inspectors, if convicted, Armstrong can receive as much as Jtix months at hard labor and loss of his pay for that period. The dispute between Armstrong and Swedish Capt. Rune Larsson of Stockholm broke out in Taegu Sept.

1 and was witnessed by a Polish officer. At Wednesday's meeting of the military armistice commission the Poles and Czechs claimed the assault was "an assault on the neutral nations supervisory commission as a whole." Lt. Col, Junnar Sagraeus of Strengnes, Sweden, a member of the Swedish team, said Larsson "ordered" Armstrong, a telegraph clerk assigned to the Taegu inspection team, to send a telegram to Swedish headquarters at Fanmun-jom. Sagraeus said Armstrong refused to send it until it was cleared by an American liaison officer and in the argument that followed Armstrong struck Larsson on the lip. The Swedes appeared embarrassed the Communists had used the incident for propaganda.

They said several days ago they considered the incident closed. Estimations Asked On Citrus Crops LAKELAND.

I ikmm BY LEONE KING Assistant Society Editor When the head of a business firm, a few years ago, asked a merhber of the Junior Woman's Club, "what do you girls do with the money we give you?" it was decided then and there that the time had come to blow the club's horn a little more so as let it be known that existence of the 65-member organization is for the betterment of the community. So explained Mrs, Robert A. El liott, public relations and publicity chairman, whose enthusiasm for the club's chief project, the South ridge Kinuergarten, is infectious. Made available to children of parents in that area, and from families where many of the mothers are employed outside the home, "it's those mothers who say they wouldn't know what to do without our kindergarten that become our greatest source of inspiration in working toward a goal that we hope may one day provide two sessions daily." Mrs.

Elliott. Right now the kindergarten, which opened Sept. 9, operates from 9 am to 12 noon, Mondays through Fridays throughout the school year. Next goal of the club is to provide an ai.ernoon session. For while no child is refused, and the enrollment stays at a steady 25.

"we feel that as the area grows additional facilities would be ap preciated, Mrs. Elliott explained. Assuming full responsibility for the kindergarten seven years ago after it had grown from a baby clinic during World War II years, to a kindergarten begun by the Junior Welfare League and Op portunity, "it is now THE project of the Junior Woman's Club." the chairman said. "And each year we set aside $1,500 to meet necessary expenses such as the paying of a teacher, school supplies, and the general expenses of school operation." Teacher this year Is Mrs. Ben S.

Ferguson, who stems from a family of educators, and. before moving to this area two years ago taught at Lewes, and was affiliated with social work in Washington, D.C. Organized games and a curricu lum of high standards tend toward furthering the mental, moral and physical development of the children, and teaches them self expression. The school has many friends, Mrs. Elliott said, and pointed out that milk provided for each youngster, every day, is donated by the Junior Welfare League.

Four parties a year give an op portunity for club members, mothers, and the teacher and children to become better acquainted on Halloween, Christmas, St. Valentine's Day and at graduation. Also every member is required to spend several hours each school semester at the kindergarten, 'which gives us all an opportunity to observe first hand how the money we raise is utilized," said Mrs, Elliott. Heretofore the Junior Woman's CAPTAIN LOUISE HUNTINGTON, i WmmmmmmmmAmmmmmKmmm funds for the school. "But this year we are planning a fashion show in addition, and also projects to allow fund-raising in the amount of $15 per member either through individual or group effort," said Mrs.

Elliott. Mrs. D. C. Castiglioni is in charge of the ways and means committee, and on her shoulders will fall the responsibility of as signing groups, and suggesting ways for club members to meet their individual quotas.

Mrs. James Price, as project chairman, has a big job, and it is she who must see to it that each member contributes their quota of hours to the jarten. "And there are all kinds of jobs to be done," sa-l Mrs. Elliott. "Our budget doesn't allow for hiring of cleaning the school in advance of registration, so we just pitch in and scrub floors and wash windows ourselves." In addition to developing a baby clinic into a first-rate kindergarten, the Junior Woman's Club is sympathetic and cooperative with all other worthy projects and civic endeavour in the community.

Fifty dollars a year is contributed to the Memorial Library for operation of its children room; funds are made available for the city's stamp campaign for wounded veterans; and 65 gifts (one from each club member) are sent an nually at Christmas to patients at the State Mental Hospital at Chat tahoochee And as well as contributing to the Empty Stocking Fund, the Red Cross and Red Feather, the club has never in its history failed to support worth while organizations. The most recent assistance was a contribution toward financing a trip that took Miss Joyce Fleenor, Palm Beach High School senior. to Jacksonville on Friday, Sept. 11, where she spent the weekend as a delegate to the second annual Teen Age Safety Conference. Mrs.

Nicho las Benevento, safety chairman for the local Junior Woman's Club and of the Florida State Federation of Womens' clubs, accompanied Miss Fleenor. President of the club is Mrs. Bernard Baker, with Mrs. William Johnson and Mrs. Clark M.

Lee as vice presidents. Other officers are: Mrs. Gerald Normandin and Mrs. Hyman C. Butler, corresponding and record ing secretaries, respectively; and Mrs.

C. Walter Johnson, secretary. Additional chairmanships held by members of the board: Mrs. Nancy Parsons, parlimen- tarian; Mrs. H.

That holiday brought declines in major indus tries which were expected.

The business picture brightened up later in the week. But the stock market picture darkened. The big break came on Friday, the final session. There was something of what Wall Street calls a selling climax late tickers and the usual climactic selling in, that prices continued to decline after the activity had subsided. There was no desire expressed to buy back stocks to any great extent.

Some demand resulted in modest recoveries, but the close on the week was lower in all sections of the market. At the close of the week, the industrial and railroad averages were in new low ground since May 1, 1952. The losses registered in that session ranged to more than three points. Railroads and oils, groups in which the greatest speculation had occurred, were the hardest hit, Practically all the issues there made new lows. The steel joins the decline.

The motors were hit because Stude-baker and Chrysler announced cut backs in production. There were several weak spots all week. These included the Ameri can Woolen issues where the preferred dividends are said to be in doubt. The selling did not spare com panies which are supposed to be out of the wooas and making money on a large scale. It spread through all sections of the market.

Predictions were made Hie de cline would go further although there may have been some overselling which might result in a temporary recovery early next week. As in bear markets, recent ral lies have been disappointing and declines have gone much further than expected, the experts said. Some of them were predicting a drop to a low of 240 in the indus trial average before Easter. The industrial average closed the week at 259.71, off 4.63 points from the close a week ago. The rail average finished at 92.97, off 3.96 utility, 49.07, off 0.64 and the aver age for 65 stocks, 100.05, off Z.40.

sales for the week totaled 655 shares with the daily average 1,134,413 shares. This compared with 6,553,871 shares in the previous week five days and a daily average of 1,310,774 shares. Steel issues dipped small amounts to new lows. The motors were forced down. There were losses in the mercantiles, metals, television aircrafts, airlines, building issues in fact all major and minor groups.

Early in the week there was a feeble attempt at recovery. In the Tuesday session, the market gained a trifle and sales fell off to a new four-year low. City Recreation Dept.

Housing Project At Bonn Rapped As Too Lavish WASHINGTON, Sept. 12 UPI Con gressional investigators today crit icized as "too lavish and lux urious" a 17 million dollar U. S.

housing project in Bonn, Germany. The development was built by the State Department in 1951 to house American government offi cials and employes transferred to Bonn when the West German capital was moved there from Frank furt. Rep. Brownson (R-Ind), chairman of a House subcommittee on government operations which issued, the report, referred to the project as "lace curtained quarters." Five officials' homes were put up at a cost of from $115,000 to 000 each, the report said. In addition, 458 one to four-bedroom complete with furnish ings that include everything from ham slicers to champagne glasses, were built at a cost of $26,000 per unit, the report added.
