A car left Takoma with orders to
run to Congress Heights, the regular
run. At Florida avenue an inspector
told the motorman to switch back at
Missouri avenue. At Center Market
another inspector ordered him to cut
back at Anacostia. At Anacostia he
was told to 60 to the steel plant, and
when he got to the steel plant the
starter there was undecided whether
to order him to cut back at Ninth

ers. And this car is supposed to run
from Takoma to Congress Heights.

Scientists AS Cattle Food

Investigations Of seaweed with refer
ence to the possibility of using certain
species as food for cattle have recently
been carried on at the Royal Agricu!-
tural Station for the Control of Cattle
Food at Wageningen, Holland, says
"The Scientific American. The general
conclusion reached is that. in the abb
sence of other roughages, seaweeds
may be fed to cattle, when the sodium
chloride has been sufficiently removed.
In Ireland, Scotland and the Farce ISL
ands dried seaweed is used as a winter
feed for cattle and horses. In South
ern Sweden it is fed to swine. In Ger
many, during the war, special nstruc-
tons were issued concerning the gath
erlng and preparation of seaweed for
use as fodder. The weed was to be
spread out so that the rain could wash
out the sodium chloride; then dried
and baled in a press.

Investment Issues

Ordinarily bull markets manifest
themselves first in higher prices for
good bonds and investment stocks. The
present one has ignored precedents in
this respect as we'll as in other re-
spects. We predict that it will soon
repair some of these discrepancies and
especially that the prices of preferred
stocks and bonds will advance very
materially in the next few weeks and
months. 1t may be, in fact, that good
preferred stocks and bonds will not
only be the safest but will prove to
be the best speculative purchases for
the next few months. The prices of
investment securities have been
stronger during the last few days than
they have been for over year. We
think that most speculative accounts
should now carry a large proportion
of investment securities. We, of course,
expect lower money rates in the near
future, or we would not favor the pur-
chase of such ccurities.-Go odbody

The Markets
A Day for the Motors

There appears to be considerable
doubt now whether Judge Gary was
talking of the crops or of steel when
he predicted q Vecord production for
this year, but that doubt yesterday had
no visible effect on the stock market.
Steel common (now tx" on the tape
closed with net gain of Y point.
On top of Fridays advance, further
brilliant gains were made in shares
which had something to do with the
automobile trade, such as an increase
OF 6ha points in Chandler Motors on a
turnover of 1000 shares, as compared
with the addition of more than 10
points on Friday; an advance of 6A
in General Motors, Of 27s in Kelly
Springfield Tire, 22s in Maxwell Motors
first preferred, 3h in Pierce Arrow, 8
in Stromberg Carburetor, 5la in Stude-
baker, in StutT and Az in United
States Rubber. There were a few good
gains in other parts of the list, but the
motors and their accessories stood
apart. The prospects for the immedi-
ate future of the automobile companies
seem bright, but few professional
traders discuss the probable technical
position Of the motor stocks after such
a rise without reaction.

Serial Bonds Here
Public Offering of Issue To

Important Foreign Finan-

The city of Rio de Janeiro, capital of
Brazil, has sold $4,000, 900 new per
cent serial ID nds TO Imbrie & Co.. New
York bankers. The bonds will be Of
fered for sale publicly this week.
This is the first important South
American financing arranged privately
since the United States entered the
war. The successful sale of these
bonds to American investors, it was
stated yesterday, is likely to be fol
lowed by other important transactions
OF a similar character.
In the past Rio de Janeiro, as we'll as
the other South American municipali
ties and states, has done the great
bulk of their public financing in Lon
don and Paris. In the future most of
this business will probably be trans
TERED to New York, provided salts

The Big Consumer

The director general protests, but
the fact remains that he is buying
100000 tons of rails. 1t is a frequent
experience, after periods of stagna-
ton in a market, that when the biggest
consumer begins buying again all
others follow suit.
Steel Stock Price Levels
What justification can the steel
stocks have for selling at this level
now, so near to the high levels during
the war period? Steel common as q
per cent stock is selling higher than
1t was at times as IT per cent stock
With the industry operating at IS per
cent of capacity, steel stocks are sell
ing higher than they were at times at
full capacity, and at higher prices.
The explanation is that the steel stocks
never did discount their earnings and
dividends at the height of the war,
because they were not expected to last.
The war markets were peculiarly con
servatlve. 1t was not only that the
stocks did not achieve a capitalized
price on current earnings. Some of
them did not so much as add the actual
earnings themselves to price. Republic
Iron & Steel, selling in 1915 as high
as 81, added in 1916, 1917 and 1913 $1O9
a share in earnings for those three
years, not only after deduction of all
excess profit taxes, but after deduc-
ton Of its common dividend payment.
Yet the shares now sell below 90
Similarly, United States Steel's book
value is now figured at 1925 share.
The assumption during the war was chat
steel capacity when hostilities ceased
would be greatly expanded, while con-
sumption would return to the pre- war
level, and goodness knows what would
happen to prices. Six months actual
experience of peace and it's further
prospects have thrown nsiderable
doubt on that assumption.

1922 Earned Last Year
On Nickel Common Stock
Surplus After All Charges, In.

022.620

The International Nickel Company
earned surplus of 1922 1929 in the
year ended March 81 last, after all
charges and taxes, compared with $10,-
129,988 in the preceding year. After
payment of $534,756 in preferred divi-
bends, there was a surplus Of $685.
232 available for Sd, 1S3,46O in common
dividend disbursements, equivalent to
1922 a share earned on the 41834, 800
outstanding common stock, compared
with 1913 share earned the year
before. After all deductions and divi-
dends final surplus for the year
amounted to $1,204,413, falling off
OF $860591.
In his remarks to the stockholders
W A. Bostwick, president, pointed out
that it was futile to attempt to fore
cast the conditions that will rule
throughout the current fiscal year.
There are certain important factors
in the consuming markets, both here
and abroad" he said, that must be
reckoned with that are temporarily
adverse in character, such as the
hesitant condition of industry gener-
ally, until the definite consumption
Of the peace treaty; the presence of
large stocks of metal and scrap metal,
both in governmental and private pos
session; the embargoes against i'm
ports in foreign countries, the diff
culties of financing and exchanging in
foreign markets and the possibilities
of some restrictive measures as to
ornaments or trading freely in raw
materials being incorporated in the
peace treaty.
"On the other hand the company's
plants, mines and ore reserves are in
splendid physical condition and there
has been provided a capacity badly
needed by the company to enable it to
advance the uses Of its various
speciality nickel and Monel metal prod
ucts for commercial uses. Moreover,
with increasing growth in the uses Of
alloy steels an increased consumption
in that quarter can be looked for"
The companys balance sheet to
March 81 last, discloses S9,692,42 in
inventories, compared with $G,824,5
for the preceding year. Accounts re-
cevable were placed at S836,8S4, while
accounts payable aggregated S1,597 ,547
