FINANCIAL.' OIL SHARES LEAD {NCURB TURNOVER Lower Priced Petroleum Is- sues Are Featured at Short Session. BY JOHN A. CRONE. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, March 22.—Petroleum shares, especially the Standard Oil group, featured active trading on the c market today. This movement ‘wal based on a reported possible in- crease in the price of crude oil in the ! mid-continent field. Public utilities were mixed. Electric Bond & Share started out unpromis- ingly and continued that way the first Rfi. of the session. United Light & wer was higher, but dull. American Gas & Electric climbed to a new peak. Seven Standard Oil issues in the first half hour of trading climbed to record heights. They were Humble Ofl, Inter- national Petroleum, Ohio Oil, Standard Oil of Kansas (which ran up from 3334 to 391 before mesting selling), Stand- ard of Indiana and Standard of Ohio. ‘The lower-priced oils, such as Pan- dem, which came out in large blocks &t advancing quotations, and South American petroleums like Calon Oil, again reflected organized buying. Stocks allied with the oil industry likewise attracted a following. This bidding benefited A. O. Smith, which has been booking large natural gas and oil pipe orders. Missouri Kansas Pipe moved to a new maximum price General Baking common opened high- er as a result of persistent reports that some sort of recapitalization plan soon will be announced. American Chain was whirled to a new high. Deere & Co. old shares moved to a new high level along with the betterment in wheat quotations. Baltimore Markets Special Dispatch to The Star.

C., SATURDAY, INDUSTRY AWAITS AGTION ON TARIFF Uncertainty Over Schedules Is Held Cause of Hesitancy in Trade World. By the Associated Pre Many administral large number of members of Congress are convinced that the approaching en- actment of the tariff bill will materially help the uplift of business in the United States. They argue that the doubt cast upon the advisability of entering new transactions while import taxes are un- fixed on commodity items that must be estimated in calculating possible profits is at least as important in tying up operations as are the schedule levels themselves. “What we are facing now in the busi- ness world is the high cost of uncer- tainty,” Chairman Hawley of the House ways and means committee remarked in discussing the situation. ‘“The impos- sibility of forecasting rates is a damper on all enterprise. I think that every- body expects considerable betterment when the task of framing the bill is completed, and I am glad to be able to say that the time yet to elapse before final enactment is short.” ‘Though higher officials of the Gov- ernment are by tradition averse to dis- cussing actual effects produced by the long tariff debate, their incoming mail in recent weeks has been laden with many complaints on that score. In a confidential discussion this week over the situation one cabinet member, well informed as to industrial matters, said he could cite several industries in which normal operations were being increas- ingly restricted because tariff duties on material with which they must deal are unfixed. Concerns anxious to place contracts, it was explained, as well as producers anxious to accept contracts, simply cannot get together until the tax rates and the possible domestic prices on items of goods involved are settled. This damming up is said to have grown more and more important with the passage of time. It does, however, leave one hopeful aspect. Business of this sort is merely awaiting the fixing of sched- ules, and the fact that this cannot be postponed much longer is one of the points that leads observers in the ad- ministration to look for a marked bet- terment in conditions the moment that the issues are settled. . Western Maryland Railway. BALTIMORE, March 22 (Special) — Estimated gross revenues of the Western Maryland railway from January 1 lo March 14 show a rln of $85,046, or 2 per cent. Total for the period was $3,755,283, comparing with $3,670,237 last year. Heavier movement of coal d by-products account for $64,416 of the gain, with freight other than coal contributing $38,043. Passenger receipts continued to dwindle, loss from that source amounting to $12,020, or 20 per cent. For the first two weeks of March esti- mated earnings were $715,993, a gain of $10,591, or 2 per cent. DIVIDENDS DECLARED. NEW YORK, M:rch 22 (A)— Hidrs. of Tecor: Pay- Fiod. ao Comp Rate.

VIOLENT SWINGS FINA HAVE MARKED ACTION OF AUTO TIRE GROUP il iR N NN NEEEWE] e eE=ee oK The trend of the general market has been a factor of comparatively little im- portance in determining price move- ments of the automobile tire stocks, says the Standard Statistics Co. of New York, in a current survey, which con- tinues, in part: “The major upward movement, which culminated in August., 1929, carried many industrial classifications to the highest levels ever recorded. The group index of tire and rubber stocks, how- ever, failed last year by a margin of about 22 per cent to duplicate the peak attained in July, 1919. “The index of 337 industrials reached the lowest levels of the past decade in August, 1921, as may be seen from the appended chart. Many individual groups included also reached their post- war lows in that y ‘The copper stocks had turned upward in December, 1920, while the broad trend of the automobile shares continued downward until February, 1922. The extreme low point of the tire group, however, was not reached until June, 1924—almost three years later. “Swings in tne tire group have been much more violent than those of the | i2y the major bear market, extending from | Octe general run of industrial shares. November, 1919, to August, 1921, the ober. industrial index declined by 47.9 per|Dec cent. The downward movement in the tire shares, which was halted in that month, after running from July, 1919, resulted in a net loss of 72.2 per cent in the index of that classification. “Between June, 1924, and March, 1929, appreciation in the tire shares, as measu; y the group index, amounted to 440 per cent. The cormponflin1 major upward swing in the industrial ups as a whole—which extended rom August, 1921, to August, 19— resulted in a gain in the index of 387 per cent. The tire issues experienced two substantial lnurmedhu reactions during their last wing. Be- tween November, 1 an May, 1926, a decline of 33.2 per cent was experienc- ed, while between January and June, 1928, the group index declined to ap- proximately 30 per cent. “It will be noted that the peak of the last upward swing in the tire group was reached in March, 1929, or six months before the industrial index attained its record level for all time. The low of STOCK AND BOND the following downward movement was not attained until January, 1930; loss sustained by the group index during this period amounted to 58.6 per cent. The industrial index declined by only 38.5 r cent during the 21 monthll endet‘Fe November :a. 1929." NEW YORK K COTTON. NEW YORK, March 22 (Special) — After making new high records for the recovery, the cotton market today de- veloped a series of nervous price changes over a range of nearly $1 bale and ended the day virtually un changed from Yyesterday. Above 15% cents for May buying less aj ive, but absence of any in. crease the supply of May contracts kept the market nervous and interests were still inclined to cover short obliga- tions in old crop positions.
