Steel Common Jumps Up

Aggressive strength of Steel common
yesterday completely dominated the
entire market. That issue moved for
ward vigorously under the impulse of
heavy buying orders. touching 1912 and
closing at 1918 for a net gain Of 3
points on a turnover of 121 800 shares,
The biggest display of strength came
in the closing hours, when Steel was
selling fraction above par. The last
time the market leader sold above
par was on May 20. Since then the
quarterly dividend of Az per cent has
been taken off the selling price

8. r. T. Notes Rise;
Syndicate Will Meet
Issue, Report Says
Bankers Discussing Plan. to
Refund $57, 100000 Due
Next Month

Official announcement that a plan
for providing funds to meet the $751;
735,0o0 note issue of the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit Company, maturing
July l, has been agreed upon may be
expected in the near future, according
to reports current in the financial dis
'trlct yesterday. Bankers were in con-
ference with interests identified with
the company, and while no details of
the discussion were made public, it
was stated that the obligation, the
largest falling due this year, will be
met.
1t is understood that Kuhn, Loeb e.
Co. will head q syndicate which will
announce the terms upon which the
notes are to be refunded Strength
and activity in the notes on the Stock
Exchange were taken as an indication
that the negotiations were proceeding
satisfactorily. On turnover of $780,
900 they advanced from 96A, the open
ing price, to 981s and closed at 975s,
compared with Wednesdays last sale
at 96As. The stock of the company
after selling as low as 42S4 closed at
"a, net gain of ss of point.
The Brooklyn Rapid Transit ma
turity was one of the questions dis
cussed at Wednesdays conference of
bankers with directors of the War
Finance Corporation. The suggestion
was made that the credit of this com
pany would be greatly improved if an
increase in the present fare from s
cents to cents were allowed by the
Public Service Commission. Some
bankers yesterday professed to see
hope that this action would be taken
soon because of the unIikelihood that
any change will be made in the near
future iii the War Finance Corpora
tion act, which would influence bank
ers to change their position in regard
to guaranteeing loans made through
them to public utility companies.
The maturing notes were issued in
1912 to carry out subway improve
ments under contract with the city.

Relevant Comment
Move to Raise Stock Commissions

A movement has been started in
Stock Exchange circles to increase the
present commission on stock transac-
tions. A committee of five will prob
ably be appointed by the president,
H. G. S. Noble, to investigate "high-
cost" conditions as they affect brokers',
and upon the decision of this commit
tee will depend whether definite action
will be taken. Bayard Dominick, of
Dominick & Dominick, is mentioned as
the chairman. Discussions up to the
present time indicate that if an in
crease is put into effect it will be on a
placed on out-of-town business, which
requires the use of expensive leased
wire systems. For buying and selling
100 shares of stock, the unit of trading,

That IS what the farmers OF the
south are being told by agricultural
experts and the newspapers The
southern states have never produced
enough foodstuffs TO feed themselves.
Always great stores OF food have
been moved south from the north and
cotton has been sent north in ex-
change. With the railroads congested
and European countries crying for
every pound of food America can
spare, the south must not draw on the
north for food. but must raise a suf-
ficient amount at all hazards.
It is pointed out that the world can
get along with 100000 bales OF cot
ton. against the usual 10000. 900 or
100000 and that instead OF produc-
ing a surplus OF cotton the south
must produce fully one third more
foodstuff or go hungry.
