NEW YORK, April 4—Cotton opened today at a decline of § to 9 points under renewal of the selling in uraged by relatively easy Li 1 cables and continued favorable mr in the South. Some stop orders were uncovered on the decline, which extended to 19.66 for July and 19.65 for October, making net losses of about 8 to 14 points during the early trading. Trade interests were buyers of the near months, and there was considerable covering at the de- cline. This steadied the market, which showed rallies of 5 or 6 points from the lom: lz thablend of the nmmm mr. ate cables re i- dation in Liverpool, influenced by the boll weevil report of yesterday and bet- ter weather news from the South.

England has a Toadside Red Cross organization to take care of the great number of road accidents which take place on the highways.

The roadside aid g:m are complete with ambulances, dressing stations and first- aid staffs, & For their work, the road service have commission - about 350 ambulances, women, number many . it year- the ambulances alone carried 2,500 Toad accident cazes, while a further vast number of people received expert first-aid treatment at the roadside. ‘The wonderful thing about. this or- ganization is the spirit behind it.

In- asmuch as the mergers as set up in the recent plan carry out a number of the recommendations made the tentative consolidations program spon- sored by the Interstate Commerce Com- mission, raflroad men cannot under- stand why the commission shows such hostility 1o the fulfillment of sugges- tions which it originally had made. ‘The position of the commission in re- gard to the holdings by the Pennsyl- vania Co. of the Wabash and Lehigh Valley is another one that remains to be officially established. So far, only intimations have been given that it does not favor the purc] of these roads ‘The attitude of is understood to be resistance to any effort to dis- rupt this investment and, if necessary, to take the question to the United States Supreme Court for adjudication. Mergers Involved. Other matters that are hanging fire before the col n concern the Bal- ern Maryland, the Wheeling & Lake Erie holdings now vested with the Nickel Plate interests, the right of the B.'& O. to retain the Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburgh, which it bought from Van Sweringens, and the price at which the Chesapeake & Ohio is to be per- mitted to sell additional stock as well as the figure at which it may purchase Pere Marquette stock. Then there is the merger of the so-called Northern lines, in which the argument for the rallroads was completed three mon! ago and whose outcome is anxiously awalted not only in the territory of these roads, but in rallroad and bank- ing circles. A decision in any one of these major cases would indicate a trend of thought or policy to relieve the present unsettled situation, whose effects are beginning to be felt in the personnel of the rallroads involved. They are also causing delay in making important commitments for mew construction and betterment work involving many mil- lions of dollars. WHEAT PRICES DROP ON INITIAL DEALS Speculators Take Bearish Position on Reports of Favorable Weather. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, April 4.—General selling, together with absence of buying sup- port, except on downturns, brought about a sharp early setback in prices today, both for wheat and corn. Con- ditions for domestic Winter wheat growth and for Spring seeding were fa- vorable, and speculators led the selling of wheat, but in corn the selling came largely from holders. Opening % to 1% cents off, wheat later scored rallies. Corn started % to % cent down, with recoveries lacking . Oats were easy. Provisions tended lower. A feature of the wheat crop advices current today was reported from one of the !oremn‘l.:. :ur.h:rlua :ntt.h& w;:; , SA) Al n ‘es '!gnmfi:ficb has often been uncer- tain, has a better crop prospect than usual on account of abundant subsoil moisture. Other said the crop outlook for Winter wheat, taking the domestic belt as a whole, could hardly be improved. Meanwhile European de- mand overnight for wheat from North America was disappointingly small, although there were said to be nu- merous bids in the market at a couple of cents below current levels. A comprehensive crop summary cov- ering Spring wheat. territory said Spring work was well under way in all States. The general crop outlook for Spring ge: wheat in the American North- west was optimistic, and, with favorable weather from now on, the wheat should get & good start. The Canadian drought situation, however, was but little, if any, improved. “ SILVER QUOTATIONS, NEW YORK, April 4 (#) —Bar silver, 56; Mexican dollars, 42%. ’ Charter No, 4247.." 1.

Moreover, these concerns today are prosperous enough to afford much more time and money in research than was possible a few years ago. Their progress can be expected to continuc in the future. Allied Chemical. The Allied Chemical & Dye Corpora- tion is one of the largest chemical com- panies in the world. It was formed in 1920 as a combination of several smaller companies specializing in dif- ferent brancl of the industry, The combined interests now produce acids, alkalis, soda, coke and its by-products, coal tar products, dyestuffs and man: other chemicals. The company is now building a tremendous nitrogen fixation plant at Hopewell, Va., which will cost 120,000,000 and will be capable of caring for the nitrogen needs of the country in peace or war time. This Imporiast. advance " ine- industry "hes po! vance made in recent vears. In judging Allied Chemical the in- vestor is under a great disadvantage. ‘The company, evidently having become used to keeping its chemical processes secret, has carried that licy into its relations to the stockhol for it re- ports only once a year, and those re- ths | ports are rather meager. It has been believed for some time that the com- pany could show very much larger earnings if it cared to. The earnings reported, however, understated though they may be, are sufficiently high to in- dicate a financial strength rivaled by few companies. Financial Strength. Allied Chemical has no bank or bond- ed indebtedness and a relatively small issue of 7 cent cumulative preferred ahead of common. It is anticipated that the &u!en'ed will eventually be re- tired. With $15,000,000 in cash and $83,- 000,000 in securities, the company is in a very strong financial condition. It is rumored that the market value of its securities is well above $150,000,000 in- stead of the $83,000,000 shown. There is some talk of forming a securities company as a separate entity to handle . REPORT OF CONDITION h ecks other cash items 1 S fund with United the company’s securities. The fact that the $120,000,000 Hopewell plant is to be financed by earnings alone is evidence of the company's great financial strength. In spite of the fact that the price of chemicals has been constantly reduced, Allled’s earnings have risen steadily. They have avera $8.51 in the last Reserve District No. 5.
