London, Oct. 0. With sentiment already nervousį following recent indications of the slowing down of the American in- dustrial activity, last night's re- newed break on Wall Street ad- ministered a sharp blow to the United Kingdom stock and com modity marketa "to-day.
The weakness was most apparent among the latter where rubber de- clined a half-penny from the Gov- ernment level to 71 pence, which Ls the lowest level since October, 1936, encountering heavy stale bull liquidation together with bear sell ing which in turn uncovered num- erous stop loss orders.
Base metals also met heavy liqui- dation especially tin and copper on the fact of which buyers were overwhelmed while all other major commodities joined in the down- ward
movement. In the case of the stock exchange, however, the decline reflects the precautionary attitude of the jobbers rather than the actual selling and in some instances, notably among minings, the lower levels are now attracting the attention of bargain hunters. Reuter.
VATICAN IGNORES DUCE'S BERLIN
VISIT
"Berlin. Oct. 8.
the
A message from Rome to "Der Angriff." draws attention to the fact that the official Vatican paper "Osservatore Romano" gave remarkably little space to report- ing Mussolini's visit to Germany.
Commenting on this editorial Omission, the "Angriff" suggests that the visit rather upset Papal authorities, as it was apparently i not in line with the policy favour- ed by the Vatican, which fears
that
this strengthening of the "Rome-Berlin Axis" might exclude the possibility of bringing about a restoration of the "Stresa Front." The paper concludes:
"We take note of this reticence. and regard it as further evidence of the Vatican's political animosity to Germany. That this reticence is not to be explained by the Papai newspapers political principles is proved by the profuse accounts it gave on the visit of M. Laval, then in January

not yet forthcoming, owing to constitutional or other similar requirements, are expecter in the near future.

In these circumstances the coun- ci were of the opinion in the ab- sence of some unexpected develop- ment, that world stocks in the free market would not during the pre- sent year be increased to any sub- stantial amount and might indeed
