A—I8 wxx FINANCIAL. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., FRIDAY, JULY 5, 1935. FINANCIAL, LOANS CUT DOW IN FIFTH DISTRICT Membzr Banks Disclose $5,141,000 Increase in Security Holdings. BY EDWARD C. STONE. Details from the monthly review of Chairman William W. Hoxton of the Federal Reserve Bank of Rich- ‘mond, received here today, show that between May 8 and June 12, both of this year, 28 reporting member banks in leading cities reduced aggregate Joans by $226,000, of which $62,000 was in loans on securities and $164,- 000 was in all other loans. Investments in securities, chiefly Government issues, increased $5,141,- 000 during the month. The report- ing banks reduced their reserve bal- ance at the Federal Reserve Bank by $12,001,000 between May 8 and June 12, while they increased cash in vaults by $1,184,000. Total deposits in the 28 banks rose during the past month, a rise of $3.586,000 in demand deposits more than offsetting a decline of $704,000 in time deposits. A decrease in time deposits usually occurs at the wvacation season. Between June 13, 1934, and June 12, 1935, loans on stocks and bonds decreased $10,138,000 and all otherl loans dropped $16,051,000, a total de- cline of $26,189.000. All other uems in the statement increased during the year. Investments in securities rose by $34,269.000, and reserve bal- ance at the Federal Reserve Bank increased by $10,300,000. Cash in vau more on the 1935 date than a year earlier. Deposits rose during the year. with an increase of $33,194,000. ac-| counting for over 90 per cent of the gain. None of the 28 reporting banks were borrowing at the Federal Re-| serve Bank of Richmond on the three dates used in the table. Total Deposits Above 1934. Time deposits in 28 regularly re- porting member banks and aggregate deposits in 11 mutual savings banks totaled $338,335,063 at the end of May, 1985, a lower figure than $338.- 825,410 at the end of April, 1935, but a higher figure than $326,631.808 at the end of May, 1934. Reporting member banks showed a decline in time deposits during the month. but gained during the past year. while the mutual savings banks gained de- posits during both the past 'no'uh and the past year. Reflecting the volume of business that has passed through the member banks, Chairman Hoxton adds that in the five weeks ended June 12, 1935, aggregate debits in the reporting cities amounted to $1,110,130,000, a de- crease of $12,904,000, or 1.1 per cent, in comparison with debits totaling $1,123,034,000 during the preceding like period, ended May 8. However, & majority of the cities rcported‘ higher figures for the more recent period, 13 cities increasing and 10 decreasing. In the 10 cities which failed to| gain this year the 5 largest cities are included. At least part of the decline in debits during the five weeks eneded June 12 was due to inclusion of some quarterly payments in the earlier period, ended May 8, especially in the larger cities, in which dividend payments are an important factor in debits figures. H In comparison with debits reported | for the five weeks ended June 13, 1934, | those for the corresponding five weeks | this year showed an increase of $114.- | 776,000, or 11.5 per cent, part of | which is probably accounted for by higher price levels this year in some | lines. All of the reporting cities showed | higher figures for the 1935 period, } except Lynchburg, in which a de- | crease of 2.8 per cent was registered. [ Mr. Hoxton reports. | Permits Up 124.5 Per Cent. | Building permits issued in 31 lead- | ing fifth district cities in May, 1933 numbered 2,892, compared with 2.2 permits issued in May, 1934, an in- crease of 30.1 per cent. Esumabed‘ valuation figures for all classes of permits issued last month totaled $5,851,857, compared with $2.606.967 valuation for permits issued in May,' 1934, an increase this year of 124.5! per cent. Twenty-six of the thirty- one cities showed higher valuation figures for May, 1935, than for May. 1934, and most of the improvemem" appears to be in residential construc- | tion. To this surprising percentage in- erease in building permits is added | the commercial failure record. Chair-| man Hoxton states that the com- mercial failure situation in May was the most favorable made by any of the 12 Reserve districts, bankruptcies in this area in May numbering only 27 in comparison with 67 in May. 1934, while the months liabilities aggregated $507,813 as compared with $1,706,753. | At the same time, employment showed improvement in construction ‘work but there appeared to be no de- crease in relief rolls. Textile mills increased operations slightly. Tobacco manufacturing continued at a high level in May, materially exceeding the output in the same month a year | ago. | As previously noted, Washington | was the retail trade bright spot, with | an 8.7 per cent gain while the average | for the whole district was only about | 1 per cent ahead of the previous year. | Cool weather was given as the reason. | Today’s Trading on Exchange. In the last trading session of the | week on the Washington Stock Ex- change, $1,000 Washington Gas 5s, 1958, sold at 105%. Washington Gas 6s, series B, came out in a small sale at 102%. Capital Transit stock held its Wed- mesday gain and again changed hands; at 19. Potomac Electric Power 6 per cent preferred moved at 110, while the same corporation’s 5% per cent preferred opened at 1145 and closed &t 114 on a 28-share turnover.

Chicago Grain By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, July 5.—All future de- liveries of wheat in Chicago plunged downward 5 cents a bushel late today as compared with Wednesday's close. Announcement that the price of wheat at Winnipeg today had tumbled to the minimum permitted by the Ca- nadian government led to fresh out- bursts of distress selling in Chicago and other leading markets. A state- ment from Premier Bennett of Can- ada that there would be no sacri- ficing of grain from that country in international trade was ignored as a market influence. ‘Wheat closed semi-demoralized, 5-5% under Wednesday's finish, September, 817%; corn, 1%-2% off, September, 73a73%; oats, 1%-2 down, and pro- visions unchanged to 25 cents lower.

NEW YORK, July 5.—Based on the current rate of earnings, the Rem- ington Rand plan for reclassification of the company’s stock and settlement of back dividends, proposed by the board of directors to stockholders on | May 28, 1935, if adopted, will make possible enough savings on interest charges to increase net earnings of the company 10 per cent, it was estimated today by J. H. Rand, jr. chairman of the board and president. After giving effect to the reduction of interest the net earnings for the 12 | months ended May 31, 1935, would i be equivalent to 91 times the annual dividend requirements on the new 5 per cent prior preferred stock, and efter that would be equivalent to 1 8-10 times the annual requirements for the new $6 preferred stock, Mr. Rand stated.

Advances _____. 394 Declines = - 138 Unchanged __ 149 Total issues . BY VICTOR EUBANK, Associated Press Financial Writer. NEW YORK, July 5—The stock market forged ahead today under the leadership of steels and a wide as- sortment of specialties. Gains of 1 to 2 or more points ruled among the fa- vorites. A sharp drop in wheat prices failed to depress the list and other news was generally ignored. The close was firm. Transfers approximated 875,000 shares. Some of the motors and tobaccos were in demand, but most of the rails, oils and utilities were just about steady. Mining issues were not en- thustastic, as imported bar silver at New York was reduced % of a cent an ounce to 69 cents Aside from signing of the Wagner labor bill by the President, all was quiet along the Potomac. The slump in wheat to its full day’s permissable limit of 5 cents a bushel was attributed to fears that the Canadian govern- | ment will soon dispose of its huge wheat holdings. Cotton pointed down- ward along with rubber. Foreign gold | currencies were rather weak. Indus- trial bonds were higher. Foster-Wheeler preferred shares got up about 11 points on a few trans- actions. A number of new highs for the year or longer were registered. Net. High Low, Dividend Rate. A44 00 High. Low.Close.
