~THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON. D. T. W’EDI\'ESD_A-Y. OCTOBER 10, 1928~ " A FIRMS OFFER | Following is a list of stocks and! ; GUAI- 'NDUSIRY A|D bonds traded in on the New York Curb { Market today: Processed Fuel Is Seen as ] Method to Assist Mine Operators. BY J. C. ROYLE. MRoectal Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, October 10.—The gas| ndustry fired a life-line over the wreck | of the soft coal industry today. but it ketill is uncertain whether the latter will gnake it fast and win to shore. The | Ameriran Gas_Association, in_conven- 4ion at Atlantic City, has offered its ‘own aid and petitioned the aid of the Federal authorities in developing gas from coal by improved methods which would yield immense returns to the coal #producers from the complete processing of fuel and the sale of valuable by- ¥products, There is no question as to the des- perate situation of the soft coal in- dustry. For over a year and a half there has been a strike on in the in-| dustry. with losses and suffering on | $oth sides. Production has been heavily curtailed, but productive capacity still | remains high above any prospective «consumptive demand. Stocks of coal which a year ago totaled more than 70000000 "tons. have been reduced 40 per cent, but prices are still at a level | %50 low as to yield only minimum re- | jturns. Quotations are below those of | Merger Proposals. Recent tesumption of former union rnnn on a non-union hasis has checked | pp with price trends, and the non-union production alone without reserve stocks is about equal to present consumption Merger proposals have been only par- aally successful. Output is around 8.- #500,000 tons a week, with a normal ali- ear-round demand of less than 9.000,- 00. Even so, the entire output this ivear will be less than 50 per cent of i#he amount which might be produced Winder favorable conditions. Fuel engincers are almost unanimous stating that the solution of the prob- Mem lies in the processing of coal. and t i< here that the gas association has romized to aid The value of that aid can be judged %y the fact that in the last 50 years the igas industry has changed from a 90 wer cent lighting load to a 92 per cent heating load and increased its sales 400 er cent. In the last year 1,854,000,000,~ 2000 cubic feet of natural and manufac- tured gas was used. yielding a revenue ! $819.000.000. The amount of coal as manufactured was 81,000.000,000 eet and about 4.500,000 tons of coke nd about 9,500,000 tons of bituminous 0al was consumed. Seeking Process. ‘The gas enginecrs are now looking #oward the production of gas, steam “and electrical current in a singie plant #&n which coal could be completely pro- cessed and by-products utilized. The gas industry also foresees the genera- |tion of electricity by new mechanical lequipment which may make possible ,the locating of future gas and electric utility plants at the pit mouth, and is counting on the use of large quantities for house and theater heating and re- {frigeration. If the soft coal industry does not show enough signs of life to warrant the helping hand extended to it, the gas industry is always in the position to turn to anthracite, oil and natural gas for its requirements. Little anthra- cite has been used for this purpose in recent years because of high costs, but these, it is thought, may be possible of reduction. ‘The amount of oil used has been fair- Iy constant by the present low price of crude as a stimulating factor. The natural gas supply. of course, involves pipe line transportation, but such transportation facilities are being con- stantly increased. Added Danger. An added danger has made its ap- pearance before the coal producers. Heretofore heavy consumers of fuel have been accustomed to contract for their needs well in_advance. Now many of them avoid this practice. The reserve supplies of coal have been so heavy and the competition so strong and the efficiency of the rail carriers so great that consumers have found they could order fuel in small lots frequently and have it delivered when and as they wanted it without congesting their own bins and yards with reserve stocks. This has thrown many of the old-time ©oal producers into confusion. Wall Street Briefs The Wayne Pump Co. of Fort Wayne, nd.. has acquired the Boyle-Dayton Co. of Los Angeles. The Boyle-Dayton Co., one of the largest gasoline pump makers west of the Rockies, with six branches in the larger Pecific Coast | cities. will change its name to the | Wayne-Dayton Co. The management | will remain intact. with the cxception | of President F. E. Dayton, who will retire, and be succeeded by his son, F. L. Dayton. Operating income of the American Telephone & Telegraph Co. for August was $3.032.273, against $3321,139 in the same month in 1927. Ingot production of the United States Steel Corporation increased about 3 per cent last week, and is now at 89 per cent, against 86 the week before. Lead- | ing independents are estimated to be at 86 per cent, against 85 in two preced- ing weeks, For the third consecutive month the YLehigh Valley Railroad, in September, is expected to show an increase in net operating income over the same period in 1927. Preliminary estimates indicate 1he gross was about $6.300.000, or $385.- 000 below a vear ago, While net operat- ing income was about $1.200,000, an in- crease of $38,000 over September, 1927. | Louis K. Liggett Drug Co. has signed 8 contract with Consolidzted Automatic Merchandising Corporation for install- ing talking automatic merchandising machines to sell cigarcttes and cigars in all stores of the Liggett chain. The | company operates 450 drug stores from coast to coast.

By the Associated Press CHICAGO, October 10.—In sympathv | with the weakness of Liverpool wheat | market, wheat values here underwent | an early setback today. Corn prices also went lower, general selling being wit- nessed when a bulge at the start re- sulted from the Government crop re- port. Opening 15 to 3% off, Chicago wheat later showed a material further drop. Corn opened unchanged to 1. higher, and subsequently suffered a_de- cided downturn. Oats were easfer. Pro- visions also tended to decline. Despite assertions that all wheat crop figures in North America have been discounted and that prices are too low in view of the needs of importing coun- tries, the wheat market here {ook a fresh downward swing today. influenced largely by action of Liverpool quotations sell low-grade Canadian offerings. There also were favorable field advices from Australia, and estimates were at hand that seedings of wheat in New South Wales this season total 4,420,000 acres, against 2,990,000 acres last year. Although latest Government figures on 1928 corn production are 28.000,000 bushels less than indicated a month ago the corn market today met with a notable increase of selling goods. The | selling drive found the market at least | temporarily devoid of aggressive sup- port, except on declines. It was noted however, that some corn export bus ness was in progress East, and that export bids at Omaha for shipments via Galveston were on !>c higher basis, about equal to the shipping’ difference between Omaha and Chicago.

MELBOURNE, October 10 ®).— Recent heaviness of Australian obliga- tions in the New York market may h"[ explained by the fact that for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1928, every state in the cor.-ionwealth except Quee: land reported a deficit. The total was around $22,500.000. Recent loans have not been well received and it is under- stood they will be cut 25 per cent or R more this year.
