Copper Acceptance Credits

It was said in copper circles yes
terday that the credits extended to
French buyers of the metal in this
country will take the form Of accept
ances to run for ninety days, with the
privilege of three renewals. AS has
already been stated, this class Of paper
is indorsed by leading French banks
and is eligible for rediscount at the
Federal Reserve banks, inasmuch as
it is based on exports of Ameri-
can products. The plans of the Cop
per Export Association are said to
call for the delivery Of 5000 tons of
copper a month. The initial sales are
being made at about 1914 cents a
pound, but this quotation may be
raised should the demand either at
home or abroad warrant an increase.
Producers state that a considerable
amount of copper is now being sold
on cash basis to Denmark, Canada
and Italy. 1t is estimated that between
40 and 30 per cent of the country's
current output is now being taken
abroad.
New-York tribune., 1920-05-21
Columbia Gas & Electric

Columbia Gas & Electric sharehold
ers, according to reports in the Street.
are expecting the stock will be placed
on per cent dividend basis at the
next meeting of directors. The COM
pany paid per cent last year and in
the first two quarters Of 1920 the
distribution has been at the rate OF
5 per cent on the S50,000,000 capital
stock Earnings thus far this year
are said to afford the management
reason to expect that 1920 will be the
banner year Of the company. 1t is
of1ic tally stated that new business taken
by the electric department for the four
months ended with April was equiva-
lent to the total booked throughout
the entire year 1919. Gross business
gained more than 100000 in the first
quarter Of the current year, and the
net income after fixed charges showed
an expansion of S4500OO. The com
pany receives $4,000 900 par value Of
stock of the United Fuel e. Gas Com
pany as its share Of the 200 per cent
stock dividend recently declared by the
latter concern, increasing the Colum-
bias holdings to SIS 100000. At cur
rent market quotations these holdings
are worth about $30,000,000.
New-York tribune., 1920-05-21
Railroad Wage Increases

1t Is the belief of local railroad man
ayers that the Railroad Labor Board
will announce within a month the wage
increases that are to be granted en-
ployees. The new rates, it is under
stood, will apply mainly to those classes
of labor which have not received addi-
tional compensation commensurate with
the increase in the cost of living. In
this category are yard workers.. The
relatively lower wages being paid these
railroad employees, it is said, have re-
suited in the loss of many workers who
have migrated to other industries,
where the remuneration is higher. The
need Of attracting more Of these men
back to the railroad yards is generally
recognized by the managers.
New-York tribune., 1920-05-21
Shorts Cause Rally

AS was generally expected after
Wednesdays heavy liquidation, the
market early yesterday met large
volume of selling orders at the open
ing and prices IN most cases sagged
to new lows for the year. But it was
soon apparent that important support
ing orders were IN the market, and
prices rallied quite sharply before the
noon hour, only to decline again in the
early afternoon. From o'clock or.
however, the bears found it increasing
ly difficult to depress stocks, and when
they heard report that S40,000,0O0
gold was on the way from London they
started to cover in earnest. This move
ment carried Steel common, after it
had sold as low as S97s, back to 81 at
the close. Baldwin Locomotive and
the Doheny oil issues also responded
quickly to the nervous buying of the
shorts, and by 3 o'clock had shown suo-
stantlal gains over Wednesdays clos
ing quotations. The buying by the
shorts was said to have been started
by several Of the big floor traders, VINO
were of the opinion that the days re-
covery might carry further to-day
These interests are still bearish on
the stock market outlook, however. and
are understood to be ready to sell
stocks again if prices go much higher
New-York tribune., 1920-05-21
East Buying Stocks

It's an old precept of Wall Street
that when the West is selling stocks the
East is buying or is thinking seriously
about buying. Brokers reported that
the bulk of the buying orders that made
their appearance yesterday were for
Eastern interests, who argued that the
sudden bearishness of their Western
brothers was belated appreciation of
what had been going on in the money
market and the business world for the
last three months. "The stock mar
ket," said one broker, "has been dis
counting the defiation process for q
long time, and there seems to be little
reason to become too pessimistic at
this stage of the game just because a
lot of spectacular publicity is being
given to ptece cutting by merchants all
over the country. If this IS done in an
orderly manner the country will be in
much better position to start on a new
era of prosperity"

The Dollar in Foreign Exchange

otefIIng exchange was firmer ves-
terday, and francs, lire and marks
moved upward. The squirt in marks
was the most striking development in
the foreign exchange market. Bankers
returning from Europe report a ten
dency of the Germans to get down to
work, and the movement to fix a def
mite war bill also has improved senti-
ment in regard to marks, which sold
as low as l cent in February.

Calena Signal Oil Company

Stockholders of the Galena Signal
Oil Company al a special meeting ap-
proved the proposed plan Of an in
crease in the authorized common stock
from $4,000, 900 to $22 900 900 and in
crease in authorized Indebtedness by
the creation Of S6.000,000 convertible

the financing Will be determined by the
directors in the near future.
New-York tribune., 1920-05-21
I'm Wall Street
One Explanation

One of the explanations offered yes
terday for the heavy selling that took
place in the market Wednesday after
noon was that Western spectators did
not know of the early weakness until
around the noon hour here. This was
blamed to the New York daylight saw
ings law, which makes it s o'clock in
Chicago when it is 10 o'clock in New
York Many people who trade through
Chicago, it was said, did not arrive at
their brokers' Offices until the market
here had been in session for two hours,
and when they learned of the morning
break they became frightened and sold
stocks for what they would bring.

Debate on Discount Rates

Bankers here are in sa-reement as
TO the efficacy Of a further increase in
the redlscount rate on commercial
paper at the Federal Reserve Bank as
a step toward dehation Some contend
that the banking situation can best be

that rate increase would be helpful
1t was said in banking circles that
James S. Alexander, Class A director
of the Federal Reserve Bank, had rec
commended an increase from 6 to per
cent on the rate of commercial paper
at the conference with the Federal Re
serve board on Tuesday. Al that con-
terence II was understood that John
Skelton Williams, Controller Of the
Currency, took the view that such a
rate increase would merely penalize
legitimate business and would not
bother the prohteers, who would borrow
in spite of high rates, if the bankers
would furnish the money.

on Tuesday, it was generally agreed
that no further increase in discount
rates by the Federal Reserve banks is
necessary. Our chief efforts will be
toward financing agricultural require
nents this year. We want to avoid
