All European countries are increasing their armaments at a feverish rate, which is a sufficient indication of underlying opinions of the real position.
The brief meeting of British, French and Belgian
statesmen in London on July 23 was followed almost immediately by attempts to induce Germany
and Italy to attend a five-Power conference on European problems, to be held in the autumn. A gather^
ing of that nature was proposed in the resolution
adopted at London, probably because that appears
to be the only means for bringing both Germany
and Italy back into full collaboration with other
countries. Ambassadors of the three countries called
in bodies at the Foreign Offices in Berlin and Rome,
on July 24, to make known officially the results of
the London gathering and invite the attendance of
Germany and Italy at a subsequent conference. In

a

review of the

development of the public works program under which, by




March 1, more than 3,800,000 persons were

larger part of the report is concerned with progress through
December, 1935, subsequent developments bemg presented
in an appendix.
The treatment is comprehensive and, ap¬

the works program and its
background and purposes, the
report takes up the operation of the program as shown in

The above allotments are contained in General Sugar Quota Regulations.
Series 3, Revision 2, Supplement I, signed by the Acting Secretary of
Agriculture July 27, 1936.
The Tydings-McDuffie Act (Philippine Independence Act) establishes the
amount of sugar which may be admitted in the United States free of duty
from the Philippines during 1936 at 800,000 long tons of raw sugar and
50,000 tons of refined sugar (equivalent to about 970,000 short tons raw
value). The quota of 1,098,738 short tons for the Philippine Islands here¬
tofore established by quota regulations exceeds the 969,664 short tons, raw
value, to be shipped in 1936 under the duty free quota established under the
Philippine Independence Act, by 129,074 short tons. A quantity of 31,165
short tons of sugar arrived in 1935 for 1936 consumption and is not charge¬
able under customs procedure to the 1936 duty free quota. The full duty of
1,875 cents per pound would be paid on any sugars brought in during 1936
for con sumption in the United States in that year in excess of the duty-free
Virgin Islands

August.
E. O.
Thompson, Chairman of the Commission, pointed out that
inasmuch as the State's actual output now is 2.17% under
the allowable, August production, despite the new allowable,
actually will be under the Bureau's estimate.
A decline of 524,000 barrels in stocks of domestic and
foreign crude petroleum during the week ended July 18
pared the total to 308,859,000 barrels, the Bureau of Mines
reported July 29.
Stocks of domestic crude were off 518,000
barrels, while holdings of foreign crude registered a drop
of 6,000 barrels, the report disclosed.
Sharp declines in daily production totals in Oklahoma
and California brought a net drop of 17,400 barrels in
daily average output for the nation for the week ended
July 25.
Total production was set at 2,960,950 barrels by
the American Petroleum Institute.
This total compared
with the Bureau of Mines' estimate of July market demand
of 2,917,200 barrels, and actual production in the like
1935 period of 2,734,650 barrels.
t
■.
Output in Oklahoma dipped 11,000 barrels to total 548,200
barrels, as compared with the July market estimate of
569,800 barrels set by the Bureau of Mines.
The Oklahoma
Corporation Commission, it will be recalled, set the allowable
for July sharply below the Bureau's figure.
Despite a cut
of 8,900 barrels in California—more than the 8,500 net dtop
for the entire area east of the Rocky Mountains—output
on
the West Coast of 575,000 barrels was far above the
Bureau's estimate of 550,800 barrels.
Texas and Louisiana

States, it was disclosed at the first regular session of the group
in four months, held at Dallas, Texas, on July 31.
The delegates attending the meeting voted to recommend
to signatory States that the pact be renewed when it expires
September 1, 1937.
The special committee is composed of
Ernest O. Thompson, chairman of the Texas Railroad Com¬
mission, Homer Koch, Kansas representative, and William
Bell, Illinois representative.
The group will make a report
at the next meeting on October 1.
Renewal of the compact, it was pointed out, will give more
time to bring California and Louisiana into the pact.

"Metal and Mineral Markets" in its issue

of July 30, said
though the lead market has been fairly active all this
month, the demand for the metal in the l^st week was
unusually brisk. Lead buyers seldom indulge in what the
copper industry refers to as a "buying wave,", but the
record for the calendar week ended July 25, showing sales
of about 27,000 tons, was Very impressive.
In fact, the
sales were the largest' in volume for a, seven-day period since
1929.
Domestic copper quieted down considerably, as all
in the trade expected.
Zinc became firmly established at
4.80c., St. Louis. Tin prices were irregular on conflicting
reports in reference to the negotiations for the renewal of
the control agreement at the end of this year.
Figures on
automobile operations in this country in the first half of the
year reveal that 2,490,408 vehicles were produced, which
compares with 2,218,255 in the same period last year. The

Bureau of Mines,

in its weekly coal
report, stated that production of bituminous coal increased
slightly in the week ended July 18.
The total output is
estimated at 7,038,000 net tons, a gain of 192,000 tons, or
2.8%, over the preceding week.
Production during the
corresponding week last year amounted to 5,485,000 tons.
Anthracite production in Pennsylvania during the week
ended July 18 is estimated at 752,000 net tons.
This is in
comparison with 761,000 tons in the preceding week, and
724,000 tons in the corresponding week of 1935.
During the calender year to July 18, 1936, a total of
218,053,000 tons of bituminous coal and 29,137,000 net tons
of Pennsylvania anthracite were produced.
This compares
with 200,232,000 tons of soft coal and 30,569,000 tons of
hard coal produced in the same period of 1935. The Bureau's

Stock of Money in

the Country

The Treasury

Department at Washington has issued the
customary monthly statement showing the stock of money
in the country and the amount of circulation after deducting
the moneys held in the United States Treasury and by
Federal Reserve banks and agents.
The figures this time
are for June 30,
1936, and show that the money in circu¬
lation at that date (including, of course, what is held in bank
vaults of member banks of the Federal Reserve System) was
$6,241,204,963, as against $5,952,598,759 on May 31, 1936,
and $5,567,092,519 on June 30, 1935, and comparing with
$5,698,214,612 on Oct. 31, 1920.

Following his return to Washington on July 27 from a
tour of the drought sections of the
country, Rexford Guy
Tugwell, Resettlement Administrator, at a press conference
that day, expressed the opinion that the Federal Government
will, in all probability, be forced to continue its program of
giving relief and advancing forage loans in the stricken areas
until well into uext year.
The Administrator found condi¬

Wyoming, in which States he believes Government aid will
be needed until next spring, if not longer.

Governor Landon thus expresses himself in a

Mr. Thomas had requested that the Governor enlarge upon
the statement contained in his speech of acceptance (given
on page 521

rights.
In his letter to Mr. Thomas, Governor Landon
says that "in my statement

that I am in favor of infringing in any way the right of free

I am opposed to any such in¬

found very little. - There was a promise of "reasonable" security.
But
who is to say what is "reasonable?"
Who is to go behind that evasion
and say what "reasonable" means? Remembering that Governor Landon
considered $1.08 a week "reasonable" for a Kansas family on relief, we
were worried.
Nor were we impressed by his promise to economize and at
the same time to provide adequate relief for the farmer and the unemployed
worker.
We were amazed to find him insisting that government should be
an "umpire" and then executing an about-face to say that industrial disputes
should not be the concern of the President.
.
Governor Landon holds that the Federal Government has been unable
to solve the problem of unemployment and the presumption is that he
expects private industry to succeed.
Let us consider an example, the
steel industry.
Governor Landon may be familiar with that, since his
uncle, William T. Moosman, is the chief lobbyist in Harrisburg for the
Pennsylvania steel masters.
The Pennsylvania steel industry is booming
today as it has never boomed since the World War.
Yet employment lags.
Why?
Because modern machinery is replacing the workers in the steel
mills, just as it is replacing the workers in mine and factory and on our
farms.
We have come to a show-down with the machine age.
President
Roosevelt gave us the solution when he shortened hours of work and estab¬
lished minimum wages.
Now, as a result of Supreme Court decisions, we

An item bearing on the Third World Power appeared in
our issue of
May 2, page 2936, in which it was noted that
the conference is being held in the United States in response

to

an invitation
by President Roosevelt.
Legislation author¬
izing this action by the President was passed by Congress
and signed by the Chief Executive on Aug. 26, 1935.
The
First World Power Conference was held in London, 1924;

the second in

Berlin, 1930.

Weekly Return for the Member Banks of the Federal Reserve System
Following is the weekly statement issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, giving the principal
items of the resources and liabilities of the reporting member banks in 101 leading cities from which weekly returns are obtained.
These figures are always a week behind those for the Reserve banks themselves.
The comment of the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System upon the figures for the latest week appears in our department of "Current Events and Discussions
immediately preceding which we also give the figures of New York and Chicago reporting member banks for a week later.
The statement beginning with Nov. 6, 1935. covers reporting banks In 101 leading cities, as It did prior to the banking holiday In 1933, Instead of 91 cities, and has
also been revised further so as to show additional Items.
The amount of "Loans to banks" was Included heretofore partly In "Loans on securities—to others" and partly
In "Other loans."
The Item "Demand deposits—adjusted" represents the total amount of demand deposits standing to the eredlt of Individuals, partnerships, corporations,

associations, States, counties, municipalities, Ac., minus the amount of cash Items reported as on hand or In process of collection.
The method of computing the Item "Net
demand deposits," furthermore, has been changed In two respects In accordance with provisions of the Banking Act of 1935:
first. It Includes United States Government
deposits, against which reserves must now be oarried, while previously these deposits required no reserves, and, second, amounts due from banks are now deducted from
gross demand deposits, rather than solely from amounts due to banks, as was required under the old law.
These changes make the figures of "Net demand deposits" not
comparable with those shown prior to Aug. 23,1935.
The Item "Time deposits" differs In that it formerly lnoluded a relatively small amount of time deposits of other banks,
whloh are now lnoluded In "Inter-bank deposits."
The Item "Due to banks" shown heretofore lnoluded only demand balances of domestlo banks.
The item "Borrowings"
represents funds received, on bills payable and rediscounts, from the Federal Reserve banks and from other sources.
Figures are shown also for "Capital account," "Other
assets—net," and "Other liabilities."
By "Other assets—net" is meant the aggregate of all assets not otherwise specified, less oash items reported as on hand or In process
of collection whloh have been deducted from demand deposits.

Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Co.-—Closed

Net after rents
From Jan. 1—

|t< The decision

was rendered on charges filed by the International Union of
Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers, Local 203, which called the strike May 22
1935. This strike is still technically in progress, although the mine reopened
July 5, 1935, under police protection, and some of the strikers returned

to work.

In its decision the board ordered the company to end "efforts to coerce"
its employees in the matter of their union affiliations and to withdraw

recognition and financial support from the Juneau Mine Workers Associa¬
tion, a "company-dominated" labor organization.

Associated Gas & Electric

Co.—Weekly Output—

For the week ended July 18, Associated Gas & Electric System reports
of 81,442,484 units (kwh.), which is an increase of 14.2%
above the production a year ago.
Improvement in gross revenues and net
income has not corresponded to the rise in output, because of rate cuts and
higher expenses and taxes.
In an effort to offset rate reductions and to
build up revenues, the system has been pushing the sale of appliances ex¬
net electric output

tensively.
In a special sales campaign which started Jan. 1 and ended June 30,
operating companies of the system in cooperation with appliance dealers
in Associated territory sold 58,029 electric and gas
refrigerators, according
to the preliminary report of the campaign just issued.
These sales ex¬
ceeded the goal of 45,000 by some 29%.
It is estimated that the use of these new appliances will increase the
annual electric output of operating companies which comprise the Associated
System by about 24,900,000 kwh. and the annual gas sendout by about
58,000,000 cubic feet.

Stockholders Told of Gainsdn Revenue and

Output—

"The position of the company showed considerable improvement during
and this improvement has been continued during 1936 to date,"
S. J.
Magee, Vice-President and General Manager announced at the

1935,

annual meeting of stockholders held July 13.
Mr. Magee pointed out that for the 12 months ended May 31, gross
earnings were $5,190,894 higher than for the previous annual period, and
that operating income was $777,143 higher. He said that when the
earnings
statement for the 12 months ended

May, 1936 was compared with that for
year 1935, the gain in gross during the five months was seen to be
$2,729,462 and the increase in operating income $1,219,205.
Earnings have not been increased so fast as output, Mr. Magee declared.
He said that during the first six months of this year, electric output of the
Associated Gas & Electric System was more than 9% higher than for the
first half of 1935 and more than 14% greater than for the same period of
1934.
"Rate reductions, increases in taxes, and increased costs of supplies have
been largely responsible for the fact that greater output has not shown a

corresponding increase in earnings," Mr.

.




Magee stated.

Legal Expenses Considerable
Mr.

Magee said

that

unfortunate

drain on the company was the
Courts the petition for reorganization of
of the National Bankruptcy Act, which
was filed against the company on June 8, 1934.
A considerable portion of
the time of the major executives of the company is consumed by the serious
attention they must give to this petition, he asserted.
"The company has never, since its incorporation in 1906, defaulted on
any obligation when due, either before or after the filing of this petition.
It has continued to pay its debenture interest in full.
We believe that the
company is wholly solvent, and that for this reason the petition for re¬
organization will ultimately be shown to be without any merit whatsoever."

.

Tax Liens Contested
matter

giving the management concern is the assessments
Federal Government in December for $50,962,163, which it
alleged was due for back taxes, including interest and penalties, for the
years 1927 to 1933," said Mr, Magee.
"These assessments are based upon
the utterly unfounded assumption by the Internal Revenue Department of a
taxable net income during the period 1929-35 of nearly $300,000,000.
Obviously, any assessment based on an assumed taxable income of ap¬
proximately twice the total gross operating revenues is wholly fantastic."
He said that the company was defending this suit, and had filed
appeals
to the Board of Tax Appeals from these assessments.

The steel industry has encouraging prospects for the near future, Mr.
Grace said in issuing the report.
Orders received this month have been
more than sufficient to support the present rate of operations, 67% of
capacity, he continued, while the unfinished orders of $89,561,632 were
the largest in several years.

Although the average selling price of steel was about $4 a ton less in
June than in
1929, Mr. Grace said, the corporation's paroll was equal
to the 1929 level, and the average number of hours worked by each employee
was eight to nine fewer a week.
"The total payroll in June," Mr. Grace said, "was $10,200,000, against
$425,000,000 for all of 1929.
The average number of hours worked weekly
wdSK49.8, against 48 and 49 hours in 1929.
Thus, with eight hours less
work a^week, the payroll is
equalling the 1929 level, and we have more

Mr. Grace said the higher wages and lower selling prices explained
the lower earnings than in 1929.
"In the 5y years of depression through
June 30, 1936," Mr. Grace said, "Bethlehem lost $20,000,000, and paid
in wages

$375,000,000."
Discussing unemployment,

"not caused by industrial unemployment."
industry," Mr. Grace declared, "except the buildingconstruction industry, that is not employing as many men as in 1929.
Industry is doing its job and doing it well."
The average billing price for Bethlehem's products was slightly lower
in the second quarter than in the first
quarter, Mr. Grace said.
Owing
to the establishment of
higher prices July 1, it was fair to assume that
average billing prices would be higher in the third quarter, he added.
Mr. Grace said $3,000,000 was spent for new plant improvements in
the second quarter, and $6,800,000 in the first half.
The corporation has
available $6,500,000 additional for capital improvements, which total is
being increased, he said.
Regarding efforts to unionize the steel industry, Mr. Grace said he
did not find "any real interest
among Bethlehem employees in the C. I. O.
unionization campaign."
Mr. Grace said approximately 6,000 of Bethlehem's employees took
vacations with pay last month under the plan adopted recently by the steel
industry.
He estimated that the vacations would cost the company
$1,000,000 before the end of the year.—-V. 143, p. 101.

b Warrant attached to
each $1,000 debenture entitles the holder, subject to and as provided in
the indenture, to purchase 50 shares of common stock of the corporation at
any time prior to Jan. 1, 1937 at the price of $10 per share and at any
time thereafter and prior to Nov. 1, 1950 at prices ranging from $12.50
to $20 per share.
On June 30, 1936 options to purchase, or before April 14,
1941, 6,547 shares of common stock at $16.02 per share and 4,147 shares
at $16.11 per share were issuable to Calvin Bullock under agreement dated
Aug. 26, 1929.
Net asset value per share on June 30, 1936 was $9.88, an increase of
$1.35 or 15.81% over the net asset value of $8.53 per share on Dec. 31.
Company has paid cash dividends on the common of five cents per share

In the letter to stockholders the company advises: "On April 14, 1936

corporation purchased the assets of Southern Bankers Securities Corp.
and Second Southern Bankers Securities Corp. for 42,777 shares of Carriers

and $122,220 in cash.
The assets thus-^acquired consisted of securities
and cash valued at $593,895 on April 14, 1936.
Many of these securities
have since been liquidated and proceeds reinvested."
The corporation, as presently constituted, will not qualify as a "mutual
investment company" under the definitions and limitations of the Federal
Revenue Act of 1936, but the letter states: "In view, however, of the high
cost at which many of the securities are Carried in the portfolio it is unlikely
that the company will realize taxable profits on the sale of its securities
during the current year. If so, the discrimination of the Revenue Act
of 1936 will not be felt this year."—V. 142, p. 2j88.

Offer

to

Bond and

Debenture Holders—
July 29, that it had filed a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in Washington
covering $4,000,000 of 4^% sinking fund convertible debentures to be
dated as of Nov. 1, 1936, and to mature Nov. 1, 1951.
The company
proposes to offer convertible debentures of this issue to present holders of
the company's $821,500 outstanding 6 H%
first mortgage bonds and
$1,849,500 of outstanding 6% income debentures as part of an exchange
plan designed to retire both issues in their entirety.
The proposed deben¬
tures will be convertible into common stock until maturity at the rate of
two shares of common stock for each $100 principal amount of debentures.
Under the exchange plan holders of first mortgage bonds would receive
new debentures on a par for par basis plus a premium of 5% and accrued
interest to Nov. 1, 1936.
The income debenture holder would receive in
exchange for each $1,000 old debenture a debenture of the new issue for the
same principal amount, and in addition one share of the company's $100
par 5% cumulative preferred stock plus a warrant entitling the holder to
purchase two shares of the company's common stock at $55 a share until
Oct. 15, 1939, the expiration date of the warrants, and $15 representing
interest accrued from Aug. 1, 1936 to Nov. 1, 1936.
.<
The company reserves .the right to declare the plan operative during the
exchange period, its decision to depend upon the cooperation it receives
from the securityholders in carrying out the plan.
It is expected if the plan becomes operative that the unexchanged balance
of the new issue of 4
debentures will be publicly offered by a banking
corporation

group and names of members of which will be later announced.

Acquisition-—
B. G. Dahlberg, President, has announced the purchase by the company
of the Methuen, N. J., plant of R. J. Scott & Co.. manufacturers of asphalt

According to Mr. Dahlberg, this new property will bei
by Celotex for the manufacture of certain new products now under
development.
"Despite the fact that the capacity of the Celotex plant at New Orleans
has been recently increased," Mr. Dahlberg stated, "it can hardly be
expected to do more thah care for the rapidly increasing demands for current
Celotex products.
The only way to provide for the development of new
products was to acquire another plant and the R. J. Scott factory seems
ideally suited to our present requirements and future plans."—V. 142,

the hands of the public, and also
$18,152,000 of such bonds in the company's
treasury, all of which will be secured in the opinion of counsel for the com¬
pany, by a direct lien on all of the 2,768 miles of road now owned in fee
by
the company
(excepting 48 miles acquired since the date of the mtge. and
not subjected to the lien thereof
by subsequent supplements), and on the

company s owned equipment and its leasehold interest in leased equipment,

Ry. 1st mtge.) in the principal amount
of $115,892,000, of which bonds in the

amount of $49,006,000.

bonds thereunder for a wide variety of purposes but does not permit addi¬
tional bonds to be issued by the company under present underlying mort¬
gages except to the extent defined in the mortgage to refund prior debt
secured by certain of said underlying mortgages.
The mortgage does permit

Corporation's bid of $10,031,000 was the highest of seven bids received
pursuant to the offering, and the Superintendent of Insurance immediately
asked the Court's approval of his acceptance and recommendation thereof.
The Supreme Court at Special Term on April 3, 1936 entered an order
denying the application of the Superintendent of Insurance.
From this
order corporation took an appeal to the Appellate Division of the Supreme
Court, and that Cotirt on July 7, 1936, pursuant to a three to two opinion,
entered an order reversing the order of the lower Court and directing the
Superintendent of Insurance to sell the stock of National Surety Corp. to
this corporation.
Interests opposing approval of the sale have since filed
notice of an appeal to the Court of Appeals of the State of New York.

paid on June 10, last.
The company stated that the reason for the common dividend being paid
on Oct. 10 instead of Sept. 10 is accounted for by the fact that the company's
fiscal year started earlier than Jan. 1, 1936.
Therefore the company is not
penalized by taxes on undistributed income for its fiscal year ending Sept. 30,
1936, but of course is for its undistributed income during its next fiscal year,
which begins Oct. 1. .Consequently, this dividend will be allowed as a de¬
duction from next year's income.—V. 142, p. 3165.

consolidated net profit of Crown Willamette Paper Co.
1935 and $1,129,680 for the year 1934.
y Consolidated net profit of Crown Willamette Paper Co. and its subsiaiaries for the year, less minority stockholders' proportion, amounted
to $1,961,916, which was $315,916 in excess of the year's dividend require¬
ments on the preferred stocks of that company.
Until all accumulated
preferred dividends in arrears on those stocks, which at April 30, 1936,
amounted to $3,430,000, are paid, no part of the earnings or funds of the
Crown Willamette Paper Co. will be available to the Crown Zellerbach Corp.
z As the result of agreement with the United States Treasury Department
as to
depreciation rates and policy, .depreciation provided for the year
ended April 30, 1936, has been reduced approximately $410,000 compared
with the amount which would have been charged on the basis formerly
used by the companies, and uepreciation an
losses on plant retirements
charged to profit and loss in prior years, aggregating $2,226,599, have
been restored to surplus.
This adjustment is retroactive to May 1, 1929,
with respect to the Crown Zellerbach Corp. and its wholly owned sub¬
sidiaries, and to May 1, 1930, for Crown Willamette Paper Co. and its
subsidiaries.
These revisions are tentative and subject to final review by
the Treasury Department.

RR.—Reorganization

Plan

Filed—Proposes to Consolidate All Denver Properties-—
Cuts Fixed Charges 59 %—
The management plan

of reorganization for the company has been filed

Denver.

•

Denver properties
Western, the Denver
Western, the Denver & Salt Lake, the Rio Grande Junction
and the Goshen Valley Railroad, the latter a small branch line in Utah.
Jan. 1, 1937, is the proposed effective date of the plan.
Annual fixed interest charges of the new company, if plan is approved,
which include, in addition to Denver & Rio Grande
&

Salt Lake

will be $2,358,445 compared with fixed interest

charges on present proper¬

ties of $5,749,586, a reduction of 59%.
"The object has been to provide a new

capital structure for the properties
safely within their ability to support and apportion among existing security
holders and other creditors on basis of respective seniorities of their posi¬
tion," it is stated.
As part of its reorganization the road would offer new 4% refunding
bonds to meet its entire debt of $10,691,850 to the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation.
The debt to the RFC includes money

borrowed to acquire the Denver and

Salt Lake Western.
In return for full payment

of its debt to the RFC, the road suggested
that that agency should agree to underwrite the refunding of $1,500,000
first-dnortgage,;bonds and $9,734,000 of 6% bonds of the Denver & Salt
Lake which are outstanding.
The Rio Grande is owned jointly by the Missouri Pacific and the Western
Pacific Railroad Corp.
Under the proposed plan, these two shareholders would receive 100,000
shares of new common stock for every 150,000 shares of old common stock
they now hold.

Certificates—

The Interstate Commerce Commission on July 23 authorized

the issu¬
exceeding $1,650,000 of trustees' certificates bearing interest at
a rate or rates not
exceeding 4% per annum; such certificates to be sold at
not less than par and accrued interest, and the proceeds used to pay taxes
due July 31, 1936, and to pay for rail and accessories purchased and to be
purchased.
;
The trustees propose that $1,000,000 of the certificates will be designated
as series A and
$650,000 as series B, that both series will be dated July 31,
1936, will be in the denom. of $1,000 or any multiple thereof, will bear
interest at a rate or rates of not exceeding 4% per annum, payable, with
respect to the series A certificates, at their maturity, Dec. 31, 1936..and
with respect to the series B certificates on Dec. 31,1936. and April 30, 1937,
the latter date being also the date of maturity.
It is expected that the
series A certificates will bear interest at the rate of 1
% and the series B
2 ®/q
The proceeds from the sale of the certificates will be used (1) to the extent
of $500,000 to pay for.the last half of the 1935 general taxes levied by the
various counties of Colorado, and which will become delinquent if not paid
on or before J
ily 31, 1936; (2) to the extent of $500,000 to pay the Colorado
Fuel & Iron Co., or its trustee, for 11,809 tons of new rail, with fastenings
and other accessorias, purchased and delivered to the trustees on or before
July 31, 1936; and (3) to the extent of $650,000 to pay for approximately
13,600 tons of additional rail and necessary fastenings and accessories to be
ordered and purchased by the trustees, and which in their opinion are
required for maintenance.—V. 143, p. 583.

The directors are recommending to stockholders the creation of a new

preferred will be convertible into 3-1-3 shares of common
stock during one year from Oct. 1, 1936 three shares during the two
years
following and 2>£ shares thereafter.
A special meeting of stockholders will be held Aug. 12 to vote on the plan.
It is proposed to authorize 63,806 shares of the new preferred and to in¬
crease the authorized common stock from 490,106 to 600,000 shares.
In a letter to stockholders, President A. B. Sharp says:
"It has been possible during the past few years to accomplish the retire¬
ment of all of company's bonded indebtedness and first preferred stock in the
hands of the public.
Directors are firmly of the opinion that It will be to the best interests of
company if eventually it may have outstanding in the hands of the public

The earnings for the six months ended June 30, 1936 are the largest for

Likewise, the net

Commenting on the results of operation, A. E. Barit, President of the

tent increase in operating efficiency as sales and shipments gained momen¬
tum in the second quarter.
Shipments for this period totaled 38,850 units
as compared with 28,764 units in the first quarter and 28,509 units in the
corresponding period last year.
This brought shipments for the first six

Hayes Body Corp.—To Make Auto Trailer—
The company has developed a steel frame house
in production at its Grand Rapids plant early this

trailer which will be put
fall.
Company is the first directly connected with the automobile industry
to announce entry into the rapidly growing house trailer field although a
number of motor companies are known to be investigating the potential
market.

'

»

The Hayes design differs from most trailers now on the-market in that
chassis, body frames, and part of the sides will be of steel. Most trailer
manufacturers at present use wood or wood reinforced with steel.
It is
understood that weight and manufacturing costs of the Hayes trailer are
about the same as thpse of wood.
The Hayes trailer will be marketed through automobile dealers. The new
operations may necessitate reopening company's Ionia plant which has been
shut down for a number of years.—V. 142, p. 3172.

store, in December

1921,
The John Irving Shoe Co., Inc., grew to a chain of
25 stores, selling women's
$2 and $3 shoes, popular priced hosiery,
handbags, and shoes accessories.
John Irving Shoe Corp; (incorp. in
Del., May 7, 1936) acquired the busi¬
ness of the predecessor and
operates the entire chain of stores.
The chain
of 25 retail stores merchandises under three
different names, John
Irving,
Wilson, and Crosby Shoe Stores. Five stores sell shoes at
one uniform
price
of $2; 14 at one uniform price of
$3; and the remaining six stores at
$2 and
$3.
The volume of sales is divided into about the

following proportions:
73% shoe and shoe findings, 23% hosiery, and 4%
handbags.
The principal field of operations is in
the larger cities between
Boston,
Mass., and Bridgeport, Conn. Of the 25 stores in the
chain, 20 are located
ip that area, one in New York State, one in
Pennsylvania, one in the District
i Columbia, one in Maryland, and one in
Virginia.
The company is purely a retail
organization, selling only through its own
stores.
It is not engaged in any
manufacturing or wholesaling activities.
Purpose—Proceeds expected to be received by the
company from the sale
of the stock will amount to
$358,950 before deduction of estimated
expenses
of $13,155, payable by the
company.
If all the warrants are
exercised

at
$9, there will be $216,000 additional to the
company; if at $12.50, $300,000:
and if at $15, $360,000.
'
When received,
approximately $150,000 of the net

proceeds

used for the purpose of
expansion,
of additional stores and

are

to

be

including the acquisition and equipment
modernizing such present stores as may require
it.
The contemplated expansion will
require larger inventories of
merchandise,
and the remainder of the proceeds will

be used for that
purpose.
Business Development—The
general development of the
predecessor's
business for the past three fiscal
years, for the three months
period from
the date of the end of the last
fiscal

"There are times when the purchasing

power of an investor's income can be better sustained by a generous inclu¬
sion of equities among his investments than by holding a preponderance of
fixed income securities.
As the commodity price level advances and the
cost of

living rises, fixed dollar income buys less and less.
Those who are
entirely dependent upon interest, rents or other fixed dollar income at such
be compelled to reduce their standard of living."—V. 143, p. 1|9.

Sterling Securities Corp.—Asset Value—
The corporation in its report for the six months ended June 30, 1936,
shows that after provision of $944,000 for normal Federal income tax of

13% on the taxable profit which would result from the realization of net
unrealized appreciation of investments, net assets of the corporation on the
basis of carrying investments prices at June 30, 1936 market
quotations
or the management's valuations in the absence of market quotations, were
$19,486,550, equivalent to approximately $82.72 per share for the 235,573
shares of first preferred stock outstanding on that date, compared with
$79.73 per share outstanding at Dec. 31, 1935.
In addition, two dividends
aggregating $6 per share were paid on Feb. 18 and May 15 respectively,
on account of prior accumulations.
After allowing $50 per share for the
first preferred stock and $5.50 per share unpaid accumulated dividends
thereon to June 30, 1936, the indicated asset value of the $1.20 preference
stock was approximately $12.82 per share as compared with $9.30 per
share at Dec. 31, 1935.
Total income for the six months period from dividends and interest was
$283,000.
Net income after deducting expenses and taxes was $206,545.
During the period there was a net realized profit on the sale of securities,
after provision for normal Federal income tax, of $459,177 which was
credited to the deficit account.—V. 143, p. 604.

1938 to purchase 52,543 shares at the original
offering price.
Of an issue
of $2,500,000 of 5% debentures due
1948, publicly offered in May, 1928
at 993^ and accrued interest, $1,403,000
principal amount now outstanding
will be called for payment on Dec. 1, 1936 at
101H and interest.
In a letter to stockholders July 30
notifying them of the resolution adopted
by the directors, David M. Heyman, President, states in part:
"It seems suitable that you should be advised of the considerations which
have led the directors to recommend the
dissolution, particularly as this
decision was not animated by any lack of
prosperity of the corporation's
affairs, but is influenced by its very state of prosperity and by the desire
of the board that the stockholders shall
directly and promptly enjoy the

*

results of such prosperity.
It is now estimated that if all the securities owned

by the corporation are
liquidated at approximately current market prices and if all the presently
outstanding option warrants are exercised, there will be available for dis¬
tribution to all the stockholders, after payment of all obligations and
expenses, approximately $38 per share; but the amount ultimately received
by stockholders will necessarily be dependent upon market prices prevailing
at the time of actual liquidation of
specific securities, which in turn will
affect the amount of taxes payable by the corporation.
"Although the stock of the corporation is listed on the New York Curb
Exchange, it has not, for a long time at least, enjoyed a ready market.
"In view of these facts it appears to be
advantageous to all promptly to
liquidate the corporation s6 that its security holders may immediately
benefit from the present enhanced

value of its assets."—V. 142, p. 4041.

The "portion applicable to
minority interests" is the calculated portion of the balance of income
applicable to minority holdings by the public of common stocks of sub¬
sidiaries at the end of each respective period.
Minority interests have not
been charged with deficits where income accounts of subsidiaries have so
resulted.
The "net equity of United Gas Corp. in income of subsidiaries"

No provision has been made for Federal surtax

one share of common to Feb. 1, 1939, thereafter at $20 to Feb. 1, 1941, and
at $25 to

Feb. 1, 1943.

The terms also provide that 25% of the net profits

be applied annually to the retirement of the debentures and that no
dividends shall be paid upon
any class of stock the effect of which would

Points Considered in Dividend
"In declaring at this time

the amount stated, while the net income for
improvement in earnings, the directors have

given consideration to the following features:
"(1) That for the entire period from Oct. 1, 1931, to July 1, 1936, the
corporation from its current operations has earned nothing on its capital
stocks. In fact, the deficit from operations for that period has totaled the
large sum of SI 16,286,000. Notwithstanding, dividends were paid in that
period totaling $54,791,000, making a total draft on undivided surplus of
$171,077,000.
"(2) That the corporation is required to expend large sums for the
modernization of certain of its productive facilities in order to meet condi¬

brought about by changes in mechanical appliances for production
of product demanded by customers.
"During the six months ended June 30, 1936, there was expended on
capital account for additions and betterments and in payment of maturing
subsidiary companies' bonds and mining royalty notes a total of $29,663,857.
This amount compares with a total reserve from earnings for depletion and
and to supply the character

depreciation of $26,994,370 and a sale of equipment trust obligations by
subsidiary railroads of $4,650,000 to provide in part funds for additional

British

properties of the corporation have been sold to Lazard
$25,The transaction, it is said, was negotiated by Floyd B. Odium,
head of the Atlas Corp.
It involves transfer of ownership of the Greater
London Counties Trust, Ltd., which controls important British utilities
and represented one of the most important assets of Utilities Power &
Light Corp.
The purchase, it is stated, carries ownership of all issued common shares
of Edmundson's Corp. not already held by the public and amount to
approximately 2,700,000 shares, which at current quotations are valued
at roughly £6,000,000.
While details have not been announced officially, it has been learned
that the consent of the British Treasury was asked and granted.
This,
however, was more of a formality than an actual need because dollars in
payment are easily available in America without any transfer problem.
Prudential Assurance Co. being one of the purchasers.
Lazard Brothers are understood to have been acting in behalf of Imperial
Continental Gas and Prudential Assurance Co. which, it is stated, are

committee's real estate advisers, this real estate and other
property is of considerable value, which however can only be fully realized
in the event of an
improvement in the market for this type of property.
Since the sale of the property of the W. B. & A. E. RR., some of the
minor properties purchased
by the committee have been sold.
The com¬
mittee has incorporated and
organized the Washington, Baltimore & An¬
napolis Realty Corp., which is now the owner of all the property acquired
at the sale less the
properties disposed of.
At the time of distribution,
you will receive a certificate of stock of said corporation in lieu of your
deposited bonds, a detailed accounting and a description of the properties
now owned
by the Realty corporation.
We anticipate a distribution the

protective committee for the first mortgage 5% 30-year
gold bonds, in a letter dated July 28, states:
On June 14, 1935, the property was sold under foreclosure proceedings
and the bondholders' protective
committee, representing 92.04% of all
outstanding bonds, bought in at the sale, for the benefit of the holders of
certificates of deposit, certain rights'of'way,
easements, terminal properties
and other real estate located in Baltimore,
Washington and Annapolis and
at various other points along the line of the road.
The operation of the
railroad was thereafter abandoned, except that, with the
assistance of the
Baltimore & Ohio RR., a newly formed company,
organized by the holders
of underlying bonds on the old Annapolis Short
Line, has continued the
operation of the North Shore line between Baltimore and Annapolis, on
,

which line the W. B. & A. mortgage was a third
lien, with no equity therein
existing for the benefit of W. B. & A; bondholders.,
A distribution of the proceeds of the foreclosure sale has been
delayed

for two primary reasons: First, a claim made by the bondholders'
protective
committee that the holders of the first and second
mortgage bonds on the
Short Line Railroad were not entitled to
participate as general creditors
in any distribution of general funds in the hands of the
receiver; and second,
the filing of a final distribution account by the receiver.
As to the first cause, the questions raised by the

exceptions filed by the

bondholders'

committee were argued in the U. S. District Court for the
Maryland some time ago, and the court has very recently handed
decision in Which it is determined that the holders of the

"Further delay in getting this property out of the bankruptcy court
can but work against the best interests of the security holders, who have
already suffered sufficiently as a result of protracted delays incident both
to difficult negotiations and to the passage of the Holding Company Act.
The alternatives to the acceptance of this modified plan are either in¬
definitely prolonged negotiations or liquidation.
"Since a preferred stock under the modified plan is substituted for the
income bonds provided for in the original debtor's plan, it was thought
proper that the present first lien bondholders should have certain rights
extended to them in the form of provisions attached to the preferred stock
issue not ordinarily given to such a security.

original debtor's plan of June 1, 1935, already approved by more than twoThe

Modifications of Section 3 of June 1, 1935 Plan of Reorganization
In order to provide the necessary funds to pay

off outstanding debt of

the Michigan subsidiaries, to pay off the bank loans of the

debtor company,
the holders of the first lien bonds of the debtor
company and to provide for reorganization expenses and working capital,
the trustees plan, subject to the approval of the judge, to sell the first
mortgage bonds of Edison Sault Electric Co. above mentioned and the
excess of first mortgage bonds of American States Water Service Co. of
Calif, over the amount which may be required for distribution to the holders
of the first lien bonds of the debtor company.
If the trustees are able to
arrange for the sale of all of these bonds prior to distribution under the
plan at not less than the principal amount thereof with accrued interest, a
a cash distribution to the holders of the first lien bonds of the debtor com¬
pany will be made in lieu of the distribution in bonds as hereinafter provided.
The following settlements and exchanges will then be made after confirma¬
tion of the plan:
Bank Loans—The bank loans of the debtor company, which amount to
$151,440, are fully seemed.
Such loans will be paid in cash and discharged,
First Lien 54 % Gold Bonds Series A, Due May 1, 1948—There are out¬
standing in the hands of the public approximately $7,575,400 of first lien
54% gold bonds series A, due May 1, 1948.
Interest due May 1, 1935,
on such first lien bonds was not paid when due, but an amount equal to
the interest due on that date was subsequently paid against surrender of
the May 1, 1935 coupons.
Holders of the first lien bonds will receive in settlement for each $1,000
of first lien bonds with Nov.

1, 1935 and subsequent coupons attached:
(a) $400 of first mortgage bonds series A 44 % of American States Water
and subsequent coupons attached;
(b) 22 shares 54% cumulative preferred stock of the new company; (c) 7.3
shares of common stock of the new company, and (d) $132.50 cash.
If, however, the trustees, prior to distribution under the plan, are able
to arrange for the sale of the total issue of first mortgage bonds of American
States Water Service Co. of California at not less than principal amount
thereof with accrued interest, cash in an equal amount to item (a) above
will be paid to the bondholders in substitution therefor.
No fractional shares of preferred or common stock of the new company
will be issued, but non-voting, non-dividend bearing scrip representing a
fractional share of preferred or common stock of the new company will be
issued in lieu thereof.
Such scrip may on or before Nov. 1, 1937, when
combined with other like scrip aggregating one or more full shares, be
surrendered for a full share or full shares of preferred or common stock of
the new company, as the case may be.
Ten-Year 6% Convertible Gold Debentures, Due December 1, 1938, and
General Creditors—The amount of claims held by general creditors is esti¬
mated at $12,000.
There are outstanding in the hands of the public
approximately $3,310,200 of 10-year 6% convertbile gold debentures, due
Dec. 1, 1938, with June 1, 1934, and subsequent coupons attached.
The holders of such debentures and general claims which are allowed will
receive in full settlement one share of common stock of the new company
per $20 principal amount of debenture or general claim.

for each two shares of International Match Corp. participating
preference stock.
Scrip, exchangeable for full participating certificates
when assembled with other scrip in appropriate amounts, is being offered
in exchange for odd shares of such participating preference stock.
A pros¬
pectus dated July 8, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
affords the following:
Purpose—Charles E. Adams, Frederic A. Delano, Harold I. Pratt, Row¬
land H. George, David B. Stern and Frederic S. Goodwin are acting as a
protective committee for the International Match Corp. participating
preference stock.
As of May 13, 1936, 383,699 shares of International
preference stock were deposited under the protective agreement. The pro¬
tective committee has been negotiating with representatives of Swedish
Match Co.; Irving Trust Co., as trustee in bankruptcy of International
Match Corp.; Aktiebolaget Kreuger & Tolls Konkursbo; Guaranty Co. of
New York, and City Co. of New York, Inc., who were interested and (or)
engaged in the original issue and sale of International preference stock;
the protective committee acting under deposit agreement dated April 11,
1932, for the 20-year 5% sinking fund gold debentures and 10-year 5%
convertible gold debentures of International Match Corp.; the protective
committee acting under debenture holders' protective agreement dated as
of April 8,1932, for the 5% secured sinking fund gold debentures of Kreuger
& Toll; and certain other committees representing security holders of Inter¬
national Match Corp. and (or) Kreuger & Toll, in an effort to obtain some¬
thing of value for the holders of International preference stock and holders
of the certificates of deposit of the protective committee.
These negotia¬
tions resulted in this offering of participating certificates and scrip.
The protective committee interested certain English holders of Inter¬
national preference stock, not deposited with the protective committee and
unconnected with it, in the proposed plan. As a result these English holders
formed Imco to take advantage of this plan which had been so negotiated
in order that the proposed offering of participating certificates and scrip
might be made possible.
Funds to cover the expenses incident to the
organization of Imco, and to the proposed offering of participating certifi¬
cates and scrip, will be provided by the protective committee out of funds
furnished to it by Guaranty Co. of New York and the City Co. of New
York, Inc.
Imco is informed that the protective committee has advised the holders
of International preference stock and the holders of its certificates of deposit
that it believes that the proposed offer of Imco is the best that could be made

The participating certificates are to be issued upon the following terms
and conditions, to all of which each taker or owner thereof consents and
agrees: (a) title to the certificate shall be transferable to the extent per¬
mitted by law with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument;
(b) any person in possession of the certificate, regardless of the manner in
which he shall have acquired possession, is thereby authorized to represent
himself as the absolute owner thereof and is thereby granted power to
transfer absolute title thereto by delivery thereof to a bona fide purchaser,
that is, to any one who shall purchase the certificate for value (present or
antecedent), without notice of prior defences or equities or claims of owner¬
ship enforceable against his transferor; (c) every prior taker or owner waives
escrow

and renounces all of his equities or rights in the certificate in favor of every
such bona fide purchaser shall acquire
absolute title to the certificate and to all rights represented thereby; and
(d) Imco and the escrow agent may, at their option and in their discretion,
respectively, accept and treat the bearer thereof as the absolute owner
thereof for all purposes, and neither Imco nor the escrow agent shall be
affected by any notice to the contrary.
Neither the holder of a participating certificate nor any other person shall
have any rights under the participating certificate against the escrow agent
or any person other than Imco and neither Imco nor its officers shall be
liable under the terms of the participating certificate for anything whatso¬
ever except wilful misconduct provided that this provision shall not affect
any liability arising otherwise than under the terms of the certificate.
The 675,000 participating certificates (including scrip for all or part of
675,000 participating certificates) authorized and offered may not be in¬
creased in amount and the capital shares presently authorized and out¬
standing may not be increased in amount. No other class of securities may

On the 29th inst. futures closed 20 to 30 points
up.
These were the top prices of the day.
The pronounced
strength was attributed to shortage of feed crops this year,
this in turn having a marked effect in strengthening the hog
market.
An added factor in the rise of prices was aggressive
buying on the part of speculative interests.
The market,
in the trade's opinion, is in fact in the hands of the specu¬
lative interests, who are influenced by the recent action of
corn.
New highs for the season were established in hogs
yesterday, and prices at Chicago closed 10 to 15c. higher.
The top price of the day was $11.30, and the bulk of sales
reported ranged from $9 to $11.15. -Receipts at the prin¬
cipal Western markets were 54,400 head, against 34,000 head
for the same day a year ago.
On the 30th in^t. futures closed 20 to 30 points higher. At
one time ^prices soared to a level of 30 to 40 points above
yesterday's finals. General buying by speculative and trade
interests advanced lard futures.
This extraordinary demand
was influenced largely by the skyrocketing of corn prices,
which were in turn affected by alarming official reports that
over half of the corn crop was lost.
The weakness in hogs,
which were 10c. to 20c. lower,—was practically ignored by
speculators. The top price early in the day was $11.20, and
some
of the sales reported ranged from $8.70 to $11.05.
Western receipts were again liberal and totaled 56,300 head,
against 32,000 for the same day a year ago.
The export
demand for lard continues slow.
Liverpool lard futures
followed the advance in American markets on Wednesday
and closed firm, 9d. to Is. higher.
Today futures closed 5 to
12 poihts up with the exception of July, which showed a net
gain of 20 points.
The wild upward movement in the grain
markets, especially in corn—is naturally affecting lard be¬
cause of the greatly diminished supplies and expensiveness
of feed, which will in turn affect hogs and lard.

Mediterranean at 14c.; Albany and New York together booked 56 loads of

Coal—New York coal merchants generally expect a slowly
rising early autumn industrial demand, beginning about midAugust.
The anthracite handlers, as well as the domestic
bituminous trades look for a fair upturn also in early buying

by retailers, who have reduced stocks and have been for the
most part out of the market since early June.
Many op¬
erators in southern West Virginia are now on a six-days-aweek working basis to meet run of mine requirements.
Bituminous production for the third successive week rose in
the seven days ended July 25th.
The output then was
7,220,000 tons.
For three weeks to July 25th it was 21,104,000 tons, and the weekly average 7,074,000 tons, com¬
pared respectively with 16,378,000 and 5,459,000 tons a'
year ago.

Copper—The only real development of interest was the
production quotas abroad, placing foreign
producers on a 75% basis owing to the heavier consumption
in European countries, this of course applying to those com¬
panies operating under the restriction agreement. This is an
advance from the current permitted rate of 70%.
Primary
copper production of foreign companies on the 30% curtail¬
ment basis was around 66,000 tons monthly, or 792,000 tons
a year.
The new 25% curtailment will permit a monthly
output of about 70,000 tons, or 848,400 tons annually.
In
the opinion of the domestic copper trade, the quota increase
is a modest one, considering the present heavy consumption
of the metal abroad.
Recent heavy purchases of copper by
Great Britain, the Continent, Russia and Japan have re¬
duced supplies to below normal.
Foreign purchasing in the
domestic market, moreover, was held responsible in a
measure for the recent advance of copper Jo the 9%c. level,
from 9^c.
Sales have been rather light during the past
week, which was to be expected in view of the very heavy
buying by consumers recently for delivery over AugustNovember period.
June statistics revealed world stocks of
around 460,000 short tons, of which approximately one-half
was held in the United States, a reduction of 7,000 tons from
the previous month.

Tin—The feature of the week

optimism concerning Siam
negotiations,
and naturally
affected prices.
One report had it that a cable was received
by Amsterdam from the International Tin Committee to the
effect that the Siam deadlock had been ended without coming
to any definite agreement.
A Reuters advice from Batavia
quoted M. Vandebrook, committee delegate who conferred
with the Siamese officials last week, as stating that nego¬
tiations "have been definitely broken off."
He added that
negotiations will only be resumed at Siam's request. Arrivals
of tin at Atlantic ports for July so far total 5,936 tons; at
Pacific ports 320 tons; tin afloat to United States ports
Thursday Was 5,476 tons; official warehouse report 265 tons.

Lead—Although there is no urgent demand, the market's
position is strong, and regardless of how quiet conditions
become, the feeling prevails that prices will not only hold,
but eventually go higher.
It is estimated that some 80% of
consumers' needs for August have been covered, with Sep¬
tember 20 to 25% taken care of.
The American Bureau of
Metal Statistics Wednesday showed that lead consumption
outside of the United States this year has averaged 101,178
tons a month, against 98,665 tons in all of 1935, and
95,771
tons in 1934.
The report is based on three to six months'
consumption in leading foreign consuming countries.
Zinc—A

three-month period, with recent business calling for deliveries

through October.
Advices from
It is reported that current zinc

Idaho said that for the first time in ten years a $2,000,000
zinc plant in the Coeur D'Alene mining region is operating at
full

capacity. In the tri-State district operators have under¬
a reversal of sentiment since last week, and higher
prices are now forecast for both the metal and the ore.
Shipments of concentrate last week were the best in six
gone

weeks.

Steel—Operations in steel showed further gains, the rate
this week being estimated at 71.5% of capacity.
This is an
increase of 0.6 points over the previous week, and compares
with

44% of capacity for the corresponding week last year.
It is calculated now that steel buying has gathered sufficient
fresh momentum to sustain production through August at
approximately its present rate.
This week's ingot output
may be the peak of midsummer production.
According to
steel observers the outlook for the ensuing months is de¬
cidedly promising regardless of politics. Labor disturbance,
has ceased to be a threatening factor.
The current buying
movement, which shows no marked signs of subsiding, has
placed a fairly large accumulation of orders on mill books
on top of the heavy June
backlogs, not all of which has been
shipped..
Accompanying the strong steel situation is a
general mark-up of scrap prices, with heavy melting steel
50c. a ton higher at Pittsburgh, Chicago and Philadelphia,
resulting in an advance in "The Iron Age" scrap composite
to $13,67, compared with $13,25 last week.
The sustained
demand for finished steel products at this time,
when
normally a marked recession is in order—is one of the out¬
standing industrial developments of the year.
Operations
are
maintained at leading steel centres at above 71% of
capacity, and one of the most wholesome features is the
diversified character of the demand for steel.
Among recent
orders received are 4,000 tons for a paper mill in Charleston
by Virginia Bridge Co., 700 tons for rayon mill addition at
Rome, Ga., also by Virginia Bridge, and 200 tons for a
Southern Railway bridge in Virginia, by the same company.

Pig Iron—There was very little of interest in the reports
from pig iron centers. However, furnace agents here recently
were able to
report the receipt of a good inquiry for pig iron
in single carloads.
A feature of this business is provided by
delivery specifications running to the end of September, in
addition to prompt

delivery orders.. A large number of con¬
suming plants have been working on iron purchased during
the last quarter of 1935, and it is expected these supplies will
have to be replenished soon.
Large iron orders are still
lacking in current demand, and it is expected that business
of this type will be deferred until fourth
quarter buying gets
under way.
There are no indications as yet that a settlement
of the Brooklyn Molders' strike will soon take place.
On
the whole sentiment in the trade is cheerful, the feeling being
quite general that pig iron, will soon reflect in a substantial
way the marked recovery of business and industry throughout
the country.

Wool—Conditions have been quiet, but

regardless of this
trade, dealers are holding firm, confident of the
strength of their position.
There are many inquiries, but
few sales.
It is reported that there is no cheap wool to be
had in the Boston market at this time, and the consensus of
opinion is that a stable basis on domestic wool has now been
accomplished.
Unsold stocks in growers' hands are not
causing any uneasiness, the growers appearing just as confi¬
dent of their strong position as the dealers.

spot situation, prices in the local market moved forward
rather sharply to a level of 16 to 18 points over the
previous
close.
At this point the market met considerable
hedge
selling and week-end liquidation, which caused prices to
ease off, but at the close a substantial
portion of the early
gains were still holding firmly.
An outstanding feature of
the day's reports was the skyrocketing of the July
delivery
in the New Orleans market, the price of which was run
up
135 points.
Lack of certificated stocks and short covering
forced the price to 14 cents.
Reports from New Orleans
were to the effect that few contracts
changed hands at the top
and that the sudden strength was attributed to a
large bear
operator who was forced to fill his requirements at the peak.
Subsequently July in the New Orleans market dropped back
to its relatively normal level and closed 18 points
up from the
previous day's close.
The feature in the local market was

Longview (Gregg County)—Crop has continued to make good progress
during the past week. Plants are loaded with fruit, with very little shedding.
Expect about 35% increased yield over last year. No complaints of insects.
Sulphur Springs (Hopkins County)—Cool nights and cloudy days past
week have increased insect possibilities although very little damage as yet.
Prospects continue good with large plants well fruited.

Tyler (S7nith County)—Crop this section is progressing rapidly. Most of
the crop is blooming with entire crop now reported about two weeks late.
Some leaf worms have been reported in the bottom land, with only slight
damage as yet.

'

Corpus Christi (Nueces County)—Weather has not been favorable for past
week.
The sunshine did not last long in this section and it has rained in
almost all parts since the 22d, and cotton was given another setback.
Farmers are still poisoning and where possible they are picking.
Picking
should be general (if it quits raining) by the end of the coming week. Worms
have been kept down but the weevil are more plentiful. Weather at present
very unsettled.
Harlingen (Cameron County)—Weather the past week has been partly
clear and partly cloudy with showers.
We have had altogether too much
rain and what we most need is clear hot weather. - Condition of the plants is
fine, there is a good tap root. Cotton is blooming in the top and fruiting
satisfactorily. Insect damage is very slight. With good weather from here
on we will make a big crop.
San Antonio (Bexar County)—Showers the past three weeks have changed
the condition of our crop considerably.
Where poison has been used the
crop has some better chance, but in the other localities the insects are making
quite some headway, even the leaf worm is making its appearance.
The
plant is getting rather rank and we need hot dry weather to check the
growth as well as the insects. Average opinions are that we should average
about last year's production, which at first looked like it was double last
year's. We have had showers every day and if these should continue there
will be considerable boll rot.
Present rainfall averages about seven inches
above normal.

the crop is going to deteriorate very
rapidly. To date it has held up remarkably well.
Frederick (Tillman County)—Another week without rain, and about all
we can say for the crop is it is holding up well and holding its fruit.
No
insect damage to speak of.
The nights are cool, which is about the only
thing that is in our favor. The general opinion is that if we can get rain in
the next 10 days we will make a fair crop.
Cotton on the high and tight
lands is the only cotton that shows to be suffering badly for moisture

Moisture is sufficient at present, but getting dry. In
Bryan, LeFlore and Pushmataha counties rain is needed. Some shedding,
and progress is slow.
Crop later this part of territory.
Magnum (Greer County)—Continued dry past week with temperatures
well above the century mark, resulting in 5% lower crop condition than a

Flour—Notwithstanding the upward rush of wheat prices,
mill buying was limited, hesitant, stocks apparently having
been well built up.
As one individual put it, the flour mar¬
ket is making its history in the general grain market.
It
is thought that as soon as prices become stabilized there

prices closed unchanged to
Trading was moderate, with prices more or less
erratic.
The grain belt over the week-end received the best
general rains in weeks.
It was stated, however, that these
rains were too light to afford any real relief to the growing
crops, particularly corn.
Predictions of further unsettled
weather and more rains induced considerable selling of wheat,
causing prices to drop
to l%c. from the opening level.
There was a subsequent rally, prices closing near the top of
the day, or about the same range as the previous close.
There was nothing in the news, crop or otherwise, of real

the other grains.
Strong Winnipeg and Liverpool markets
played their part in the advance of Chicago wheat. Weather
conditions over the Canadian belt continued unfavorable
for the crop.
Wheat in Buenos Aires advanced almost 2c.
to new high marks as unsettled weather is again developing
there.
New wheat from the surrounding Chicago territory
is coming to the local market quite freely.
Sales for ship¬
ment fell off, and the trading basis was termed easier.
On
the 28th inst. prices closed 1 to 2c. higher.
This advance
was attributed to the persistent strength
in foreign wheat
markets and continued unfavorable crop conditions
in
Canada.
The domestic weather and crop news was far from
encouraging.
The conspicuous feature of the trading was
the scarcity of offerings.
Hedging sales were very much
lighter.
Attention is being given now to diminishing re¬
ceipts of United States winter wheat and to word that the
Dakotas and Montana are harvesting the smallest spring
wheat crop on record.
Another interesting item: A Canadian
unofficial report indicated that because of ravages of drought
and high temperatures the wheat crop of the prairie provinces
had deteriorated to less than half normal.
A condition of
45% contrasts with a condition of 76% at this time last year,
and pointed to a yield of 215,000,000 bushels, as against
400,000,000 bushels suggested some weeks ago.
On the
29th inst. prices closed 2H to 2%c. up.
Continued bad
crop reports coming in not only from American wheat areas,
,

but also from

Canada—reports from which flatter are be¬
coming increasingly alarming—were the chief factors in¬
fluencing prices in their upsweep this session.
Wheat in
Buenos Aires, Liverpool, Winnipeg, Duluth and Kansas
City advanced to new highs, or as much as 2H to 5c. The
top prices at Chicago and Minneapolis came close to the
highs of the previous season.
An item of no small interest
was the report that Italy, Belgium, Switzerland and Holland
had jtined the United Kingdom in acquiring around 7,000,000 bushels from Canada during the past two days.
This
was looked upon as proof conclusive that wheat importing
countries are not a little apprehensive concerning their wheat
requirements, at least until next January, when the new
Argentine and Australian supplies will be available.
With
a large portion of the world drawing on Canada for wheat
supplies, and the Dominion's new crop prospects being dras¬
tically changed from day to day because of highly detrimental
weather conditions—it doesn't require an expert to figure
out the future trend of prices.
It now appears certain that
Canada's production will fall short of a normal export

On the 28th inst.
prices closed He. to lMc. higher.
Good rains were re¬
sponsible for the early recession in prices.
It was learned
later, however, that the best rains fell outside of the heavy
producing areas, and with further clear weather predicted,
it was not believed that what remains of the crop is safe.
Traders appear not disposed to make any substantial com¬
mitments until after the publication of private crop estimates
Aug. 4, which are awaited with considerable anxiety.

which showed substantial declines.
The
pronounced strength in corn was attributed to the general
conviction that much of the crop is beyond repair, even
though weather conditions should improve very materially.
Therefore, this grain closed strong after showing early
declines on reports of rains.
On the 27th inst. prices closed
2 to 23^c. higher.
Another blistering heat wave struck the
corn belt over the week-end, which in some
spots, was said

strong, failed to reach the limits of wheat, prices for which
latter grain had a maximum rise for the session of approxi¬
mately 4c. The corn belt was promised rather general
showers, but these predictions have failed to materialize so
many times—that these further promises had little or no
effect in dampening bullish enthusiasm.
Besides; the alarm¬
ing statement of Secretary Wallace to the effect that unless
beneficial rains occur in the next ten days in many areas of
the corn belt, the corn crop will rank as one of the country's
greatest failures—gave the trade and outsiders much food
for thought.
In Kansas City corn sold as much as 53^c.
higher.
Spot markets generally were strong.
On the 30th inst. prices closed the full permitted limit
of 4c. tip.

Trading was moderate and without special feature.
On the
27th inst. prices closed 134 to 2He. higher.
The bullish
weather reports and the marked strength of corn and wheat
were the influences responsible for the
strength of rye,
On
the 28th inst. prices closed lAc. down on the
July delivery

The weakness of July
was attributed to liquidation of
long contracts.

Weather Report for the Week Ended July 29—The
general summary of the weather bulletin issued by the
Department of Agriculture, indicating the influence of the
weather for the week ended July 29, follows:
by extremely high temperatures in much
with maximum readings or 100 deg. or above
occurring on every day of the period over considerable areas, especially
from the middle Mississippi Valley westward and northwestward.
The
highest reported from first-order stations was 114 deg. at Concordia, Kan.,
on July 24, and at Omaha, Neb., on July 25.
Showers were general and frequent from the eastern Ohio Valley east¬
ward and northeastward, but in the interior they were generally scattered
and mostly light, though the last day of the period had more general and
substantial rains in much of northern Missouri, north central and north¬
eastern Kansas, and eastern Colorado.
Aside from these there was not
enough rain to be of material benefit in Central and Northern States from
the Mississippi Valley westward.
The week, as a whole, had about normal temperature in the South and
somewhat below normal in the Northeastern States; otherwise the weekly
means were above normal generally throughout the country, ranging from
about 6 deg. higher than normal in the central Ohio Valley to as much as
12 deg. or 13 deg. in the central and northwestern Great Plains.
Rainfall of the week relieved, at least temporarily, droughty conditions
in considerable portions of the Ohio Valley and locally in the lower Mis¬
souri Valley and southwestern Plains; also frequent rains from "West Vir¬
ginia and northern Virginia northward were decidedly helpful in most
localities.
Moisture conditions in the Southern States are mostly satis¬
factory, except in the northwestern Cotton Belt. In central and northern
States from the Mississippi Valley westward to the Rocky Mountains,
except locally as indicated, the drought was intensified by absence of
general rainfall and the persistently extremely high temperatures during

while many central and western counties of Virginia
continue extremely dry.
Crops are doing well also in most of the Cotton
States, except northwestern Arkansas and Oklahoma.
In the interior
valleys showers of the week were iecidedly helpful in northeastern Ken¬
tucky, northern and central Ohio, much of southern and northeastern
Indiana, and also east central Illinois, while late crops improved in much
of Michigan.
Other areas favored during the week were eastern Colorado,

With the above exceptions, conditions
throughout the interior and the
Northwest became progressively worse, with the heat and dryness of the
growing season, April 1 to July 28, exceeding the severity of the 1934
drought. West of the Rocky Mountains conditions continue mostly favor¬
able, especially for irrigated crops which are doing well; also most pasture
lands and ranges are fair to good. The
heavy rains of the past week were
especially favorable in Arizona, but it was too warm for late spring grains

However, unfavorable conditions in the Northwest caused further deterio¬
ration in spring grains in that area.
In South Dakota yields from spring
wheat are decidedly disappointing, while the weather was

entirely too hot
dry in Montana. Spring wheat harvest has begun in North Dakota,
but most of the crop is being cut for feed or fields are
being used for grazing.
In parts of Minnesota conditions are somewhat
better, ranging from very
poor in the extreme west to good locally in parts of the southeast.
Grain
sorghums probably still have a chance in the lower Great Plains. Rice is
doing well in Louisiana.
and

Corn—In

general the corn crop continued to deteriorate rapidly in
of the principal producing sections.
Showers were helpful and the
shows improvement in the eastern Ohio Valley, especially in much
of Ohio and parts of Indiana, while there was some local
help in Illinois
Where late fields still have prospect.
In Illinois condition of corn is still
fair in considerable areas of the north, but
poor elsewhere, with heat
causing further tassel burning and firing and early ears barren.
In Missouri the crop, in general, seems to be standing up somewhat
better than in 1934, but is mostly
poor to a failure, with much beyond help.
In Texas progress and condition were
mostly good. In Oklahoma deteriora¬
tion was rapid, except in a few localities, with upland corn almost a complete failure and cottom lands badly burned. Corn has been largely de¬
stroyed in the Plains States and much is beyond recovery in Minnesota.
In Iowa weather conditions have been more
trying on corn than to this
time in 1934, and the crop appears to have suffered greater damage than
in that year. It ranges from almost complete destruction in the two southern
and two western tiers of counties to badly damaged in the better sections.

State—Legal Investments for Savings Banks—
Banking Department has compiled a new list of
securities considered legal investments for savings bank
funds, this new list being dated July 1, 1936.
This new list
has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Sec¬
tion 52 of the Banking Law.
The municipal sections of the
following list are presented under sub-headings correspond¬
ing to paragraphs and sub-sections of subdivisions
5-a,
5-b and 5-d of Section 239 of the Banking Law, as amended
by the 1928 Legislature.
The statement as given by the
Superintendent of Banks which accompanies the list follows:

The

following list of securities considered legal investments for savings
banks has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 52
of the Banking Law.
The list is prepared for the protection of the trustees
of savings banks, and should not be considered a guide for executors,
administrators or trustees generally.
Neither should it be considered as
having been intended for the use or dealers in securities.
The trustees of savings banks are not, because

savings banks to place their sole reliance upon the list.
It has been
prepared after a thorough investigation into the legality of the securities
listed, and is believed, therefore, to be substantially correct; but, not¬
withstanding the care that has been exercised in its preparation it is not
to be assumed that the list is a complete and infallible guide.
The pro¬
visions of the Banking Law relating to legal investments for savings banks
must for the most part be applied as of the date of investment.
Con¬
ditions vary so from time to time that securities which were legal invest¬
ments on the date they were placed upon the list may even now be dis¬
qualified.
Vice versa, securities which are not included in this list may
now be found to be legal.
Therefore, the trustees of savings banks, should
for their own protection, supplement the work of the Department by
their own careful investigation into each doubtful case.

Offering Notice—In connection with the

report of the offering by the Reconstruction Finance Cor¬
poration ^on Aug. 11 of various issues of State and municipal
bonds taken over from the Public Works Administration,
we
are
advised by H. A. Mulligan, Treasurer, that the
amount of the Evansville, Ind., 4% sewage works revenue
bonds to be sold has been reduced from $480,000 to $458,000.
This latter amount will mature Aug. 1 as follows: $22,000
from 1937 to 1940 incl.; $32,000 from 1941 to 1945 incl. and
$42,000 from 1946 to 1950 incl. The difference of $22,000
represents the amount that was to mature Aug. 1, 1936.

PUBLIC

are

contained in Sec. 239 of the Banking Law.

An Important provision of the law requires that certain municipalities
shall have power to levy taxes on the taxable real property therein for
the payment of their obligations without limitation of rate or amount.
Municipalities to which this provision applies are specified.
However,
it must be left to the trustees of the savings banks to satisfy themselves
that the securities

comply with the law on the question of unlimited taxes.
It is presumed that in so doing they will be assisted by an attorney's opinion
accompanying the bond issue or by an opinion of their own attorney.
As the cost of preparing

the list is assessed upon the savings banks,

the extent of 45% Of the cost of each
project, total $22,742,034, and secured loans which total
$2,142,000 were included in the list.
Communities re¬

each case the community benefited selected the work with its own
knowledge

of its need and backed its choice with an offer to provide more than half
the finance required as a local contribution from local funds.

Regulations for proceeding with construction of these 352 projects
follow those developed steadily by PWA in two previous programs under¬
taken since 1933, with contract construction awarded in the
regular es¬
tablished method to the lowest competitive bidder.
Plans have been
proposed by the local body making the application.
These bodies will
let, superintend and administer the work according to local practice
subject to the terms in their grant or loan agreements with PWA which
will assist and inspect the work to insure fulfillment of
agreement and
sound, economical, permanent construction.

Y.—Model Housing Development Fights
City of New York, through Paul Win-

Tax Assessment—The

dels, Corporation Counsel, told Justice Samuel I. Rosenman in Supreme Court on July 30 that it intended to collect
taxes on the buildings of Knickerbocker Village, the housing

project for white collar workers on the lower East Side.
The
city contends that the buildings are not being used for the
purposes

described in the State Housing Law.

,,

The city's argument was in opposition to a motion of Knickerbocker
Village, Inc., operators of the project, for a summary judgment ordering the
Board of Taxes and Assessments to vacate an assessment of $5,150,000

the buildings and improvements of the land occupied
Value Put at $7,000,000

by the Village.

held that the assessment for the whole project, including value
of the real estate, should be $7,000,000, fixing the value of the land at
$1,850,000 for 1935.
Justice Rosenman reserved decision on the applica¬
tion to vacate the assessment, which concerned only that placed on the
buildings.
John M. Gaston, Jr., Assistant Corporation Counsel, argued that if the
State Housing Law were held to apply to the present use of Knickerbocker
Village the law would be unconstitutional.
He denied, however, that the
project, because of its use, comes under the law.
He said that the constitutionality of Local Law 9, under which the Board
of Estimate granted the project exemption, was also open to question,
because apparently it discriminated among public housing projects with¬
out establishing any real classifications for projects which should or should
not be exempt.

Judge Thomas upheld the Registration Act in a test suit filed by James
Henry Lee against John Matt Persiful, Bell County Court Clerk.
Mr. Lee attacked validity of the Act on the grounds that it was special
legislation in that it excluded first-class cities from its provisions; that it
violates the law forbidding other persons except election officers and voters
being present in the room where voting is done, and that the machinery for
registration is insufficient to register all voters on the day of the primary,
Aug. 1.
Judge Thomas held that the Legislature had the right to pass a universal
Registration Act, and that registration in first class cities already had been
provided for.. He said the contention that voters would be deprived of
their rights was unsupported by the facts.

of Tennessee in the 1935-36 fiscal year totaled $26,067,508 compared with

$23,292,803 in the preceding year.
Gasoline tax increased approximately $1,250,000 to account for a part
of the gain of $2,890,885.
Its total was $15,648,644 and motor vehicle
licenses produced $3,457,611.
Tobacco tax accounted for $2,345,860.
Dancey Fort, Commissioner of Revenue and Taxation, said 50% of the
can be attributed to the normal improvement in business that
during the 12 months. Improved methods of collection represented
a factor, and the investigation of gasoline tax evasion also had a wholesome
effect, Mr. Fort said.
