L L DT00L WA SFENBY DETERDNG Head of Royal Dutch Com- pany Stresses Need of Reduced Output. BY JOHN F. SINCLAIR. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, April 10—Sir Henri Deterding, head of the Royal Dutch Shell O1l Co., who arrived yesterday in New York, belleves that the oil war is Sgearly over and that the American ofl *"companies—in fact, every oil company, + whether American or European—will be : benefited. Here are a few of the crisp comments he made an hour after landing: “Restrict drilling; it is foolish to pro- duce twice as much ofl as can be used; too much destructive competition. Com- petition is largely a matter of vanity, . don’t you think?” . Sir Henri sums up the present situa- —tion in these words: “I think American .ol producers are beginning to see rea- son. You cannot make money 7t pres- .ent_prices.” Crude ofl prices in the midc :tinent :fleld are expected to advance in .12 next ~10 days. * The giant Niagara Hudson Yower .Corporation is making progress. ‘The “election of L. K. Thorne, president of :Bonbright & Co. and of the American Superpower Corporation, this week to :the. directorate of Niagara Hudson Power is another indication of the closer “tle-up of the Morgan interests to this ‘new huge utility holding company. . Look at the board: Floyd L. Carlisle, chairman; Arthur V. Davis, chairman ‘of the board of the Aluminum Corpora- tion of America (a Mellon company): \George H. Howard, president of the Tulted Corporation; George Roberts, !New York attorney; Jacob F. Schoell- .kopf, ir.; Paul A. Schoellkopf, Alfred H. Schoellkopf, all three of the Buffalo iagara Power Co.; Harold Stanley of . P. Morgan & Co. and John E. Zim- merman, president of the United Gas I e board hat ... Some board that. - mBO week the stockholders of the .Niagara Hudson Power Co. met and ap- proved the plan to consolidate that com- pany and the Mohawk Hudson Power "!Corporation. Soon the stockholders of ‘the Northeastern Power Corporation “‘will meet to consider the sale of all of +its assets to this new huge corporation. ‘Another company which will be taken over as soon as plans are completed is he Buffalo Niagara & Eastern Power ‘Corporation. -rrggc this year—perhaps not in five ‘years. But some day the United States ‘will be supplied with power and light by ‘half a dozen or less huge public utility ..corporations. Niagara Hudson Corpo- “fation will be one o‘f tgem," said a New \¥or . public utility leader. 5 ’YDBO ‘t’he simplification of its holding istructure goes on. Yes, watch Niagara Hudson Power Corporation! It's emerg- ‘ing as the giant public utility corpora- ‘tion of the East. omas E. Murray, New York inven- ;w;mnnd engineer, who died last year, ‘was little known outside his own pro- ‘fession. "”Aun\ong intimate friends, he was sup- to have recelved large royalties Arom patents used in public utilities, ‘but no one realized the extent of his E Ine. "’m‘Yp; this utility magnate and engineer, according to his attorneys, left an estate ‘estimated anywhere from $25,000,000 to <$50,000,000. = Hw onnm.ny millionaires are there in the United States today? A man, whose rning assets bring him in $50,000 to .$60,000 a year, is in the millionaire class. But there are many men whose proiessional income is from $50,000 to $100,000 a year, with little of it coming from earnine assets. These men, 100, . are considered “living” millionaires. Today there are supposed to be in the ‘ United States approximately 25,000 mil- Nonaires. If all facts were known, this figure might ':11 be increased by at least 50 per cent. Nothlngels so elusive or secretive as . money. The Federal Reserve officials have been :mrklnu for years to make bankers’ . acceptances ular with American 'banks. The idea has not had much .“Robert H. Bean, the executive secre- “tary of the American Acceptance Coun- ‘ell, declares that American banks ht less than 6 per cent of the American acceptances created in the .United States in 1920, while forelgn banks absorbed more than 50 per cent. : " 'While new in the United States, the ‘bankers’ acceptance is re in FINANCIAL.

In the United States commercial ‘paper is more in demand than the ac- -ceptance. Why? Because it's better known. . “The foreign banker understands “every angle of the acceptance; he knows ;about the bankers' bills as an invest- ment; he wants security, and the rate ‘18 not of the first importance,” says Mr. ‘Bean. “It's about time the American :bankers face their responsibility to the bill market and to the acceptance busi- ‘mess in its entirety and act accord- imgly.” Zhglnmng the acceptance market is on> way to co-operate in the building ‘up of American foreign trade. Fifty years from now it will be so recognized. But today in the swift-moving busi- ‘ness panorama it is ed by as more less incidental and unimportant.

NEW YORK, April 10.—The striking things about today’s Bond Market was the better demand for the prime invest- ment issues. It did not result in any large gains nor in any very large turn- over, but it was significant of the re- entry into the market of a few, at least, of the institutional buyers. United States Government issues were more active and higher, notably mo e group, Atchi neral 4s Iflvr:fl::d. as did New York Central 4s. Humble 5!4s responded to the same sort of purchasing. Among the more speculative issues the St. Paul adjustments were turned over actively at a slightly higher price level. While under present traffic con- ditions the road is not doing as well as & year ago, the margin of safety over and above the interest requirements on the adjustments is large, and meanwhile they give a high yield. Foreign bonds were generally firm. State of Sao Paulo 6s had a brisk run-up and there was a good turnover in other Brazil bonds. Of course, the bulk of the trading was in the stock privilege issues. Kreuger & Toll 55 come under this classification and went to a new year's high, responding to the increased profits in the annual statement. The most active issue was the American Telephone & Telegraph 4%s, which kept pace with the stock. The high price a year ago for this bond was 227, so that it still has some distance to go to equal it. Shubert Theater 6s made a new high for the year as they touched 67 in the early trading, up 3 points. Large blocks of QGeneral Theaters Equipment 6s, Loew's 6s, both with and without war- rants; Pathe 7s and Warner Bros. Pic- tures 6s changed hands, but without as wide fluctuations as on Wednesday. ——— BALTIMORE TROLLEY SYSTEM SHOWS GAIN Special Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, April 10.—Great im- provement in the financial position of the United Railways, which controls the trolley systems of Baltimore, during 1929, before the new 10-cent fare went into effect, is shown in the annual re- port, just made public. Net income was placed at $542,387.27, or $30,755.08 less than for 1928, but this net was achieved despite the fact that the company was able to add to its de- re;:;.;:nn reserve $759,996.67 more than ‘The total amount set aside for de- preciation was $1,650.660, compared with only $878,693 in 1928, the big in- crease being a result of a fight that re- sulted in a decision of the Court of Ap- peals of Maryland Eflnlfl.ln‘ the com- pany to increase depreciation re- serve. ‘The comparative net incomes for the last three years were: 1929, $542,387.27; 1928, $537,142.35; 1927, $535,364.99. Taking into consideration the in- creased depreciation reserve, the com- pany’s statement was considered $790,- 721.75 better than the 1928 report. Eme e Washington Stock Exchange SALES.

Rubber tire production, in accord with the pick-up in the automo- bile plants, increased their forces 13.1 per cent.

West Virginia. ‘The steel industry, after showing con- siderable improvement in February, again decreased its operating capacity in March to about 74 per cent. With the advent of milder weather, coal pro- duction has steadily decreased. In the first two weeks in March the output amounted to 4,381,000 tons, as against % | 5:283,000 in the same period a year ago, a decrease of 17.2 per cent.
