Agr.)—Trading in the Boston market was too limited to definitely estab- lish prices on most grades of greasy combing wool. Asking prices were unchanged, but holders were in the mood to consider bids under the max- imum figures of quotation ranges. ‘They were, however, receiving too few bids to enable them to test the mar- ket, and there was apparently no ef- fort to push wool on the market at any price it would bring. A fairly firm resistance was encountered when buyers offered materially less than recent selling prices. Production of Steel Shows Big Increase New York, April 4.—()—Steel pro- ducing operations this week have risen one-half point to a national average of 48.5 per cent of capacity and -mills are beginning to feel the effects of the rush of consumers to cover their needs in anticipation of higher prices, said “Iron Age” Wed- niesday. Sharply higher operating schedules in finishing mills are ex- pected by the middle of the month, according to the review. “General price advances on steel products ranging from $2 to $8 a! ton,” asserted the review, “have fol- lowed the recent 10 per cent increase in wages. While the filing of prices has not been completed, new quota- tions have been announced on virtu- ally all the commoner products ex- cept pipe, tin plate and rails.” Capital Stock Tax Approved in Senate Washington, April 4—()—The sen- ate Wednesday approved without de- bate a tax of one-tenth of one per cent on the capital stock of corpora- tions, designed to raise an estimated $95,000,000 a year. Acting on the $330,- 000,000 revnue bill, the senate gave tentative approval to a long list of finance committee provisions includ- ing one levying a big surtax on “im- Properly accumulated” surpluses of corporations. The additional tax would be 25 per cent on adjusted net income under $100,000 and 35 per cent on that in excess of $100,000. * Lift Restrictions On Wheat Planting Washington, April 4. — (#) — The farm administration Wednesday des- ignated 85 counties in seven states as areas where the minimum planting requirements of wheat adjustment contracts may be waived this year because of unfavorable planting con- ditions. ‘The waivers would apply to areas designated by state extension direc- Clifford Beaten in Election at Langdon Langdon, N.
