OF VANADIUM CO.
Holders of Old Stock Offered
$1,000 in Cash and Notes.

J. L. Replogle. who began his career
in the steel business as a water boy at
s. a week in the Cambria mills and
finally completed his service to the
company in engineering the deal by
which control passed to the Midvale
Steel and Ordnance Company, early
this wear. appears in another important
financial transaction. With the aid of
strong banking interests as underwrit-
ers, Mr.. Replogle has prepared plan
providing for recapitalization of the
American Vanadium Company, Of
which he is now one of the largest
stockholders and vice-president. Hold
ers of the 100000 capital stock now
outstanding are being offered $1,000
share for their holdings. The new COM
many will be capitalized at sll,OOO,000,
divided into s5,OOO,OOO preferred and
$4,000 900 common. In addition there
will be approximately S2,50O,00O 6 per
cent short term notes.
The underwriters of the plan are

Kuhn, Loeb & Co., Cassat & Co., of
Philadelphia; Mr.. Replogle, Chandler
Bros. & Co., Harrison Williams and
others
The terms Of the Republication
programme provide that the stockhold-
ers of the American Vanadium Com
pany shall receive $3.50 cash and $3.50
in per cent notes for each share OF
stock now held. This exchange will call
for a total cash outlay of S4,550,O00 and
S2.5000 900 in 6 per cent notes.
The American Vanadium Company
controls about 90 per cent OF the known
vanadium deposits of the world through
ownership of mines in the Peruvian
Andes. The increased demand from
the steel companies has caused big
lump in the price, resulting in a great
enhancement of the company's earn
ings since the beginning Of the war.
Most of the present stockholders got
their stock at par. Vanadium. used
extensively to strengthen manufact-
ured steel, is now quoted at between
$4,000 and $4,000 a ton.

TEUTONS AIM NEW
BLOW AT BRITISH
Bundesrath RetaliateS
Against English
Enterprises.
BY FRANCIS w. HIRST.
fBy Cable 10 The Tribune

London, Aug. 22-As Great Brit
ain had before the war trade with
Germany worth about f100,000,000
Of which the shipping and banking
Profits were mainly British, the ques-
ton of how private firms and COM
panies engaged in this commerce
should be treated during the war and
after peace by the respective govern
pents is very important.
Interested city firms are studying
n decree issued July 81 by the Ger
man Bundesrath, which empowers
the Chancellor to order the liquida-
ton of undertakings in Germany
whose capital is held preponderantly
By British subjects, or which are
controlled or managed from British
territory. The decree is described as
being "in reprisal for liquidation by
England of German undertakings"
An official notice declares the de-
cree follows the British law of Janu-
ary 81, but whereas our law makes
the liquidation of enemy concerns
compulsory, the Federal Councils
decree leaves it at the discretion of
the German Chancellor.
According to the "Vossische Zeit-
ing" the German liquidation may
deal not only with the present par
cnt undertakings, but with branch
establishments, inheritances, landed
property and British interests Of all
kinds. Obviously, if the policy is
carried out ruthlessly on both sides,
much of the direct trade between
Great Britain and Germany will be
diverted after the war into neutral
channels, probably to the advantage
of Dutch and Scandinavian shippers
and bankers.
The exchange business has already
rassed largely to Amsterdam and
Copenhagen, but London will strive
bard to recover its old position after
the war, and the present fashions OF
commercial retaliation may disap-
pear as speedily as they arrived.
The British Association will dis
cuss war finance at Newcastle and
the Trade Union Congress will take
up the question of peace negotia-
tions, war wages, prices, etc, in the
first week of September at Birming-
ham.
A feature of the stock exchanges
is a small boom in Mexican securi-
ties.

WILLYS-OYERLAND
ISSUES SHARES
S15,OOO,OOO of New Stock
Offered for SubScrip-
ton at "A.

To provide additional working capt.
tai the WHY'S Overland Company an
nounced yesterday a plan to increase
its common stock outstanding by SIo'-
600 900. The projected issue has been
underwritten by the Stock Exchange
firms Of ]. S. Bache & Co. and I. u.
Barney & Co. at a price reported to be
SAL a share.
Common stock holders are offered the
privilege of subscribing to the new
stock at s44 share in proportion to
their holdings. Concerning the rights
of the preferred share holders the Of
fetal statement said:
"The preferred share holders, under
the law, have no right to subscribe to
anv part of any new issue of common
stock. but in view of the fact that the
preferred stock is convertible into
common stock, Mr.. WHY'S has waived
in favor of the preferred share holders
a sufficient amount of the stock to
which he has the right to subscribe to
permit of an offering to the preferred
stock holders of one share, par value
s25. for each share of preferred stock
outstanding"
The proposed increase in WHY'S
Overland capital was foreshadowed
early in Wall Street yesterday by
marked weakness in the common stock,
while the majority of issues were
making new high prices on the current
upward movement. When the official
announcement appeared a further de-
cline took place, and the closing quo
tation of 4St showed a net loss for
the day Of seven points. Other motor
issues were adversely affected by the
break in this issue. Willys-Overland
at its extreme low of AZ yesterday
showed loss OF 1914 points from the
high price established on June 5,
shortly after the announcement that
the par value had been reduced to SIS
a share from $780,
The Willys-Overland Company has
an authorized common stock capitali-
zation of s5O,OOO,OOO. The increase
will bring the amount outstanding up
10 s37 500 900. After the sale of the
sl5,0O0,000 Of new stock the company,
by its own announcement, will have
approximately sl5,OOO,OOO of cash and
$50 900 Of other quick assets. The
earnings OF tho corporation on basis
of the first six months Of this year
were estimated in yesterdays state
ment at approximately 40 per cent up
on the par value of the common stock,
including that proposed TO be issued.

action" The Interstate Commerce
Commission has been more than
neutral. 1t has been mute. Neither
side has called upon it. That is not
50 much to be wondered at, as the
fact that the Administration has
commanded nothing out of its store
of expert knowledge. Its opinion of
the eight-hour day, so far as any
body knows, has not been required.
The hope of another increase in rail
road rates has been offered to the
railroads in trade for an eight-hour
cay by the President of the United
States, who, if it were proper to
make a bargain of that sort, would
have no legal power to enforce it.

Commission for?

which the imports are derived. As the
United States is providing by far the
greater part Of our increased imports
il is upon the New York exchange ana
the question Of providing funds in New
York that the situation depends. From
time 20 time as the war goes on 1t be-
comes necessary for us to raise further
credits in that centre, for which, fortu-
nately, all the conditions are favorable.
Thanks to the large inflow of gold and
to the potentialities of the new Federai
Reserve act, there is little doubt that
New York will have ample funds 10
finance the harvesting requirements OF
the West, the needs of her own active
industries and the provision of credit
against the purchases Of the Allies

ton of those now pledged here I'M
der the $3.50 ,0O0, 900 loan is owned
outright by the government and
what proportion is borrowed. Those
that are owned outright may be
withdrawn and sold, according TO
the agreement with the Morgan syn
dictate. Those that have been bor-
rowed, of course, could not be sold.
Nor is there any way of telling what
relation this lot of S100,000,OOo in
nearly five hundred items bears TO
the amount still in the hands Of the
British Treasury. 1t is very prob
able that the most saleable securi-
ties, especially shares, have been
withheld. Financial experts so
adroit as those who are handling
Great Britain's foreign loans would
not have failed to perceive the ad-
vantage of pledging the least sale
able collateral and holding back that
which could be sold without notice
on a rising market in Wall Street.
A very large proportion of the Sc
curities pledged could not have been
Inundated on the Stock Exchange.
They are too little known and too
inactive and altogether unsupported
by speculation. They are principal
" bonds. 1t is much harder to
liauidate bonds than stocks.
Nobody knows either the proper
tions or the aggregate of the dollar
securities modified" by the British
Treasury. In a recent conversation
with the London correspondent OF
"The New York Times" Mr.. Nc
Kenna, the Chancellor of the Elk
chequer, said: "Your readers would,
| am sure, very much like to know
what is the amount of American Sc
curities of which we have OBTAINED
control, but l fear | must stop short
of the actual figures and content my
self with saying that the aggregate
is extremely satisfactory, and has
relieved me of all fears in regard
to the problem Of providing ex-
change to meet our expenses IN
America" Several correspondents
have mentioned the effect upon Brit
ish securities of the mobilization"
of American issues. A scarcity of
is created, which in
creases the demand for British is
sues. Wall Street probably is not
anywhere near the end of the for
eign liquidation. All that can be
said is that the amount of it for
while may be reduced.

Baling England Out.

The variety of American dollar
securities pledged under the new
British loan is amazing. The Eng
liSh investor is shrewd and perse-
vering beyond any other in the
world, with a way Of spreading his
risk over a great many things which
is learned only by long experience.
All of this was known. The evil
dence nevertheless is interesting
There is a touch of pathos in the
spectacle Of what was hitherto the
greatest creditor nation of the world
borrowing in this manner-exposing
and pawning for the first time the
contents Of its private strong box.
1t is not a pleasant experience.
There are nearly five hundred
items in the list, some of them OBJ
scure, having disappeared so long
ago from the activities of the mar
ket place as to be almost forgotten.
If a private borrower came with a
list of collateral like this, one would
know what to think. The inference
would be fairly obvious. One would
say: This man has turned his
strong box upside down and knocked
it on the table. 1t is empty" That,
in fact, is the opinion as to Great
Britain now entertained in Wall
Street, and the strength of the
stock market, following the publica-
ton of the list, was probably owing
in some measure to the assumption
that England had at last been baled
out of American securities. 1t is a
large assumption. The resources of
Great Britain in securities have been
perhaps under-estimated. In any
case, this list Of nearly five hundred
securities of American corporations
does not nearly exhaust the variety
Of her holdings.
From time to time in the English
financial papers the American Dol
lar Securities Committee of the Ma
tional Debt Office has published
lists of American securities (which
the Treasury is prepared to pur-
chase, and which will be subject to
a special income tax" The last
published list which has reached this
side was of July 20. 1t was the
fifth. And the number of items had
then reached 9S4, the last one being
Worcester & Connecticut Eastern
Railway 1st Mortgage S. f. Az per
cent. 1943." In this advertisement
it was said that further lists of
the securities in respect of which
holders will be liable to the special
income tax of IS. in the { may be
issued from time to time" So, the
five hundred items appearing in the
list of dollar securities now pledged
here under the British loan are only
one-half the number of American
issues owned in England against
which a special income tax, TO force
their surrender to the government,
has already been published.
The British Treasury both buys
and borrows American securities.
The special income tax does not lie
against securities which are loaned
by their owners 70 the government
to be borrowed on abroad. There
is no way Of telling what proper

Money and Credit.

Call money on the Stock Exchange
ruled at pa per cent. The lowest was
2 per cent, at the close Of the market.
Time money on bankers collateral
was unchanged, at 3A to 81 per cent
for sixty and ninety days. There is
so little fear Of tight money that bor-
rowers are relying perhaps more than
usual upon call money with which to
carry customers stocks. Brokers loans
would rise rapidly however, with a
continuation Of such activity as de-
veloped yesterday on the Stock Ex-
change.
The demand for commercial paper in
Wall Street was a little more active,
making rates somewhat easier, and this
illustrates the availability of bank
funds here and elsewhere.

discount rates in each of the twelve
Federal Reserve districts are as fol-
