16 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. D MONDAY. JANUARY °d {1929, LISTIS UNSETTLED ON GUR EXCHANGE Trade Volume Heavy—Air- plane Stocks Are Active. Utilities Advance. BY WILLIAM F. HEFFERNAN. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, January 7.—It was an- | other day of heavy trading on the Curb Exchange, with the main body of stocks displaying more nervousness than at any time since the turn of the vear. While there was no uni- formity to the price movement, the | majority of changes occurred on the side of decline. Stocks of airplane companies were | active, with good sized losses taking | place in such recent favorites as Niles- | Bement-Pond, Sikorsky, E. W. Bliss and Boeing Air & Transport. Aviation Cor- poration of America, on the other hand, advanced sharply to a new high record, up 5 points at one time, and Uni- versal Aviation experienced one of the Jargest turnovers since trading com- menced in the issue. Public utilities, which advanced sharply following last week's announce- ment of the New York Central electri- fication plans, were held in check by profit taking today. Lower prices were reached by Elec- tric Bond & Share securities, United | Gas & Improvement and Northeastern | Power, recessions ranging from 1 to! more than 4 points. | Buying for control was the gossip in connection with the further upturn to new top prices in Ford Motor of Can- ada. At 816 the price was 16 points above last week's final, but lost the im- provement subsequently. Ford Motor, Ltd., the British subsidiary, opened frac- tionally higher on a block of 5,000 shares, but failed to attract the atten- tion it had immediately following the listing of the issue for trading here. Considerable interest centered in the trading on Radio Corporation. new pre- ferred. and Radio Corporation common. The stocks both opened on blocks of 5,000 shares at 737 and 795, respec- tively, and were pressed for sale there- after. The issues represented the stocks to be issued under the plan for the merger with Victor Machine. Mining shares were, for the most part, lower. ‘The ofls did little. COTTON STEADIES UP AFTER EARLY DROP Southern Selling and Liquidation Absorbed in Today’s Mar- ket Dealings. By the Assoclated Press. NEW YORK, January 7.—The cotton market opened steady’ at a decline of 2 to 9 points under Southern selling and liquidation which sent prices off to 19.74 for March and 19.37 for July. Trade buying and covering developed in sufficient volume around the 19%- cent level for Spring months to absorb the offerings, however, and the market soon became less active, with prices showing rallies of several points from the lowest by the end of the first half hour. March sold up to 19.81, with active months generally selling back to about Saturday’s closing quotations. Cables from Liverpool made a fairly steady showing and advices said that Jocal and Bombay liquidation there had been absorbed by trade calling and cov- ering on the declines. According to these advices the demand for cotton cl.ths was well sustained, but the de- mand for yarns was limited.

Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, January 7.—A farmer may catch a weasel asleep, but nobody nowadays has much chance to catch the farmer asleep. He has seen the growth and prosperity of the chain stems and already has adopted the business policy to his own activities. In Texas, the growth of farm chains has been phenomenal and has only started and progress is bemng watched by up-to-date men in agriculture in all other parts of the country, ‘The Texas chain farmers have band- | ed together, not only to aid each other. in the disposition of their products, buu to cut costs by collective buying and operation. They have put into effect a centralized and consolidated system of purchasing farm implements and of using them in rotation as the localities demanded. This was done on the Sin- gleton Farm, in Hillis County; the Bra- zos River plantations and the Luling and Trinity County farms. Farmers Stick Together. It has been asserted by opponents of the co-operative systems that farmers could not be induced to stick together, but this has proved untrue in the case of the Canadian grain growers and has been discredited for nearly 80 years by the operations of the Zions Co-operative Mercantile Institution in Salt Lake City. The Zions Co-operative Mercantile In- stitution was siarted as a mercantile and agricultural co-operative institution under the auspices of Brigham Young at a time when there was no currency in Utah and when barter and exchange replaced the passing of coin and checks It grew into one of the oldest and best department stores in America and re- mains a leader in its territory today, still backed and supported by farmer and merchant co-operation. Although there are widespread com- plaints in the farming districts of the Northwest concerning the = prices of grains, particularly wheat, the agricul- tural situation there is the best since the war, according to the Minnesota commissioners of agriculture, N. J. Holmberg. This is due in no small part to the development of co-operative dairying. One such organization, the Land O'Lakes Creameries, did a $50,- 000,000 business in 11 months of 1928, as compared with $46,000,000 for all of 1927. Car load shipments replaced the old broken lots and every pound was made to come up to the association standard. Live stock feeders in the territory have combined likewise and consequent- ly the farmers no longer depend so thoroughly on grain crops. Despite this, the nine principal grain crops brought in $272,095,000, a gain of $6,- 953,000. In North Dakota, where wheat was emphasized, there was a drop of $23,000,000 in returns. Potatoes were so plentiful that many were just plow- ed under as fertilizer. Holding for the Spring. Many farmers are holding wheat in bins on their farms in the hopes of better prices next Spring. They can do this since they have been fortified by a prosperous year. Deposits in country banks in the Northwest are the highest in history, averaging $502,000 per bank in Minnesota, North and South Dakota, Montana and parts of Wisconsin and Michigan. There have been few bank faflures and many consolidations, so that there are fewer but stronger banks. Sales of farm lands have not been “particularly active and it is obvious that values have not gotton back to the levels touched in the post-war boom, but there has been a wide improvement in both deriand and price in the last year. The farms on which banks were forced to foreclose during the depression are gradually passing into the hands of dirt farmers again. The banks of the Northwest now have approximately $1,- 256,506,000 on deposit. WHEAT GOES HIGHER. Severe Cold Weather in Winter Crop Area Is Factor. By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, January 7.—Influenced by severe cold weather in domestic Winter wheat territory and by unexpected price upturns at Liverpool, the wheat market here averaged higher early today. Fall- ing off of the amount of wheat on ocean passage was reported and also decreased offerings from. Argentina. Chicago wheat opened Yad% to 3 up, but later ' reacted somewhat. ' Corn started unchanged to 33 advance and subsequently held near to initial figures. Oats were firm. Provisions - likewise tended upgrade. sty BUTTER IS HIGHER.

VAN STRUM. NEW YORK, January 6.—The annual forecasts for the new year by business | leaders appeared last week. After reading them, however, it is difficult to defermine the average viewpoint on the future. t. business leaders are as usual decidedly optimistic, but dis- counting undue optimism it appears that while there is little doubt that bus ness will ‘continue good for the first ! quarter or first half of the vear, the second half is the cause of some uncer- tainty. This is not to say that they expect | a complete reversal of the present pros- perous condition, but merely that, many are inclined to believe that such rapid business progress as we are NOw ex- periencing may come to a halt after the middle of the year. ‘The opinion is| widely held that an abatement of spec~ ulation in stocks would be beneficial to business. Advances on High Money. Last week, in typical contrary style, the stock market advanced as long as | money rates were high, but showed signs of hesitation as soon as call rates began to fall. On Monday and Wed- nesday, with call money befween 10 per | ‘cent and 12 per cent, stocks advanced sharply, with the heaviest trading since December 10. During the latter part | of the week, however, even though money fell to 6 per cent, the market | refused to go higher, although the vol- | ume of trading each day was over 5,- | 000,000 shares. On Thursday and Friday both in- dustrial and railroad stocks reached the old high levels prevailing before the December break and they met heavy resistance to their advance. During November and early December the mar- ket tried unsuccessfully for three weeks to advance above the levels just now regained, and it is to be expected that heavy selling will again set in at this point which may prevent their break- ing through. Only future developments can show whether there is sufficient buying pow- er now to send prices higher, but with stocks at their former highs the market is especially liable to suffer from any development which can be construed as unfavorable. 1t is such sharp increases in brokers loans as occurred last week that are being frowned upon by banking and business interests, and it is widely be- lleved that if they continue at their present pace the reserve banks will take further steps to prevent the flow of credit into securities. The immediate future of stock prices seems to depend a great deal upon the attitude of the reserve banks toward brokers loan ex- pansion. An Electrical Week. Only a few groups of stocks featured last w};ek. Th%“;lecmcll industry with General Electric and Westinghouse, and the radio and phonograph group repre- sented by Radio Corporation, Victor Kolster, Columbia Graphone lead one section of the list while the coppers, one of the principal beneficiaries of pros- perity in electricity, lead in another section. Last week there was additional strik- ing evidence of the advancing fortunes of the copper industry, when domestic copper went to 16% cents right on the heels of last week’s advance from 16 to 161 cents. Copper producers are expecting 17 cents by the end of this week. ek. Another important development of the week was the increase in crude petrol- eum production to 2,581,050 barrels daily, which is very close to the record peak in July, 1927, of 2,587,100. The threat of overproduction is having a de- pressing effect upon oil stocks. Prices on the curb and the local stock exchange showed a tendency to move with those on the stock exchange, ris- ing the day before, but coming to a halt toward the end of the week. The gen- eral level of stocks in Boston, Phila- delphia, San Francisco, Baltimore and Cincinnati is somewhat below the No- vember peaks, while in St. Louis, De- | troit, Cleveland and Chicago, they are | near’ or above their old highs. !
