4 OUTLOOK SPOTTY IN VARIOUS LINES Half-Year Retail Trade Will| Show Gains Over Same Period in 1930. Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, May 30.—Current in- dications of the trend in various di- visions of industry and trade are sum- marized by the Standard Statisties Ccl of New York from its first of June resume of the outlook for important lines, as foilows: Agricultural machinery—Sales, col- lections and net income undoubtedly will remain at severely depressed levels during the balance of the year. Aircraft—Curtailed siles will prevent any material improvement in operatin; refurns of manufacturing companies in the near future. Alr passenger trans- gan has mede some sppreriable gains, t satisfactory results in this division must await substantial reductions in op"lflnfi costs. Apparel—Clothing producers will show oniy moderats gains over the de- gress-d earnings reported in the first alf of 1930. Automobiles—Until gener2l business improvement results in a decidsd ex- pansion of purchasing power and a restoration of public confidence it is cted that motor vehicle demand will remain of restricted proportions. Practically all manuf:cturing units, however, “will und:ubtedly report & considerably better experience for the current, quarter than for the first quar- ter of 1931. Automcebile parts—Considerable rela- tive earnings improvement is in pros- pect for the current quarter, as com- red with the decline reccrded in the st three months of the vear. Automobile tires—For the entire year ‘only the most favorably situated units likely to show even m>derate Building—The second quarter prob. ably will make a less s>tisfactory com- parison than was registered in the first three months of the year. Chemical Profits. Hold Up. Chemicals—Pr-fits in the comestic chemical industry. broadly considered, continue to hold up relatively well, but | marked improvement in returns must await & definite reversal in general in- dustrial conditions. i Coal—For most companies profits | robably are still running slightiy be- gmd the levels of last vear and will’ continue to do 8o during the imme- diate future. Copper—Over _early future months | shipments will rem: at relaiively un- | satisfactory levels pending fundamental improvement in general industry. Cotton goods—Mill margins Wwill re- main unrcmunerative taroughout the | major part of th> Summer, at leest. Electrical equipment—The cperat of leading units are being supp. to some extent by demana for li items of electrical equipment. Fertilizers—In mos. cases profits for the current year will bs of minor pro- porticns. | Food products (other than meat)— For the entire industry 1931 profits prebably will compare quite closely with the favorable 1930 siowing. Houeencld producis—Only a branches of tha i produce nece:siti well sustained business.

Radio—Corporate earnings for set | producers will, with few exceptions, be | non-cxisient or negligible for tae greater | part of this year. Reduced prices for tubes, and introduction of some new and more efficient types, have some- what improved the sales outlook for this branch of the industry. Third Quarter Awaited. Railroad=—Not until the final quar-| ter of 1931 will there be unmistakable ! evidence of improvement over a year earli'r, and the extent of such gains will be dependent upon th> amount of expansion in general business volume. Railroad equipment—Leasing of re- frigerator and tank cars is eon in good voiume and in the manu actur- ing wivsions, earnings of tn: sgnal units should be better sustained than the balance of the industry ! Rayon—Some evidence is now ap- pearing of a change for the b tter in th2 out'ook. A stable demeni sems probable for the Summer monibs, com- pared with the sharp decline in pur- chases which took place a year ago. Retail trade—Increased first hal. year earnings will b reported, as compared with the like 1930 per.od, only in the case of tho variety chains concentrat- ing in the lower price fieics, as well #s a 1ew grocery systems. Shipping— improvement in rev- enuss of own=rs and op rators is ina cated for the final six months of the year. 8ilk—Th» deficits suffsred by the trade as a whole are likely to fall som<- what short of those registered for the 1 six months last year. Marked improvement in pro- rturns is unlikely until the lat- ter part of 1931. Sugar—At best, not more than a grad- ual advance in sugar prices is exp2cted, particularly over the remainder of the year. ‘Theat:re—There seems no basis for near future earnings expansion from current levels. Tobacco Outlook Good. ‘Tobacco—Full year pros, at pres. ent are hvurablc for the leading cigar- ette compan Giliticee—Thére 1s reason for expect- ing losses in ths use of electricity to stabilize during the Summer, although hmm“ ed bett:rment is unlikely before Business volume of the manufactured El industry in 1931 will be slightly b-- last year.

Brokers’ Comment NEW YORK, May 30.—Brokerage house opinion on tne stock 'market remained mixed and uncertain, al- though there seems to be a growing feeling that at least a technical rally | cannot be far away. Comments follow Hornblower & Weeks—Because the Iast two years have offered so man: precedents of the market changing i's direction over a double holiday, and bacause the current wave of Hquldl- tion hes run for nearly 215 months, is quite possible that the first week H June will inaugurate an upturn. Jackson Bros., Boesel & Co.—Reports persist and have been widely dissem- inated that some Kkind of organized banking arrangement is in the making to sublme security prices.

Certainly | the action of the market did not reflect it. We Jook lfor another irregular mar- ket today and believe that further ef- forts may be made to extend the rally. but we still adhere to the opinion that the market does not yet show definite indicaticns of having touchsd bottom and that many stocks will sell lower in the next few weeks. Ruseell, ‘Miller & Co.—The market is no longer a matter of analvsis based on corporation earnings, dividend returns, trade facts.
