MARKET WITHOUT
SETTLED TREND
Trading Much curtailed by In
terrupted Communication
With the Middle West

New York March 29.--Contrasted
with some Of the recent tumultuous
sessions today's stock market was a very
tame affair. There was a pronounced
curtailment in the voluem of business
which was attributed to several in
fluences Most potent of which was in
tcrrupted wire service because of the
severe storm in the Middle West and the
more or less confusion created by the
adoption Of the daylight time. Another
contributing influence of restraint could
be found in the digestion process. The
extensive profit taking in the latter
part Of last week unquestionably neces-
STATED considerable adjustments. which
alone could be counted upon keeping the
surface of market uneven.
Apart from the gold arrivals there
was nothing in the week end develop
ments TO encourage resumption of the
bo.sterous trading in the pool issues.
A closer analysis of the bank state
ments failed to disclose any tangible
evidence indicating essential change in
money market conditions. The renewal
rote for call loans was fixed at 8 per
cent but the demand was light. At the
same time British exchange after easing
of at the opening rallied almost to
last weeks high quotation.
After the higher. opening price move
ments were extremely irregular and the
trading ''spotty," which, however, was
in line with the highly professional cali
bre of the trading. Recent favorites.

and Baldwin Locomotive, we're under

however, was shown by Chandler Mo-

opening. The rails also hardened, but

acter of the market, little after the
mid day session vigorous demand de q.

spirited advance of almost y points
from its low price of the morning. At
the same time Stutz Motor scored more
than full recovery. Otherwise changes

LOCAL TRADING
AT STANDST|LL
Early Dealings Smallest Wit
messed in Long Time and Were
Absolutely Featureless

The local trading was next to
standstill The volume of business dur
ing the first forty five minutes OF the
trading was the smallest witnessed Tor
some time More than two thirds OF the
local list failed to register a transac-
tion during this early period, and those
few fortunate enough to receive atten,
ton were either bought or sold in small
odd lots. ...
About the only semblance of activity
was found in the. Insurance Company OF
North America full paid receipts. which
advanced u point to 2Sh, while the
old stock sold at 29as. United Gas I'm
provement was firm at 504, Union
Traction moved up ss to 33A and Phil,
adelphia Electric held at par. In all
these the transactions were less than
100 shares, so that the market could
hardly be taken seriously.
The fatness of the market was dis
appointing In some ways, but there was
really nothing in the over Sunday de-
velopments Of sufficient influence to
bring about material change in the
general conditions prevailing in the To-
cal market. 1t is generally recognized
in more conservative circles that until
money conditions become decidedly
easier there is little possibility of Wild
cning market interest.

GREAT SUM IN TAXES
PAID U. S. IN YEAR
Would in Dollar Bills Pave Street
Around World

For the fiscal year, ending June 30,
1920, the United States government
collected in taxes the stupendous sum
of $5,408,075068, according to Tate T,
Hackney, Of the field audit section of
income ax\unit, of the Treasury de-
partment, who compiled the tax fig
ures.
According to the latest census re-
ports there are l05,000,000 people in
continental United States. This means
levy of ISL 55 for every man, wom-
an and child in the country.
AS means of overcoming the short
age in housing throughout the nation,
this cash would build more than $780,
GOO modest five-room cottages, costing
$1,000 each, sufficient to house more
than 100000 people, allowing five to
family, or the entire population of
New York State, or twenty-seven of
our less populous Western states of
less than 100000 population each. This
money would give to each of these
individuals a Ford automobile costing
Sl65 each.
If Adam Had Drawn Pay
Speaking of high wages paid today"
said Mr. Hackney, think of this: The
earliest dawn of recorded history be-
gan about 5000 years before Christ, or
1000 years ago, including the present
century.
"If Father Adam had begun work
ing on the first day of his life at
Sl47 a minute-SSSl6 an hour, or
50, JIG a day, working every day since,
taking no Sundays or holidays, not
even stopping for lunch or sleep, care
fully saving all his earnings, not even
buying Eve a new dress or spring hat,
having no twentieth century high cost
of living to pay he would lack eighty
years of having earned an amount
equal to our 1920 taxes"
In silver dollars the vast amount of
money would reach from New York
to San Francisco with enough left to
run a silver cable across the Atlantic
ocean. This is figured on the basis
that silver dollar is IL inches in
diameter and 2-25 of an inch thick,
one onuce. Placing our dol
lars fiat together, they will count l5O
to a foot The distance from New
York to San Francisco is 6,S2S miles.
Placed edge to edge, only eight will
be required to measure foot. This
means $42240 to the mile, the total
amount in silver dollars measuring
l28,O32 miles, or more than four COM
plete lines around the earth 1t would
take 33SO5 trucks of ive-ton we to
carry the money in silver dollars.
Tax Pile in Paper
Let us imagine further our tax pile
in one dollar notes. A one dollar bill
is 3-S inches wide by Z 3-8 inches
long and weighs 003 Of a pound Uncle
Sans five and two-ffths billions will
weigh in one dollar bills l6,2R4,225
pounds, or 1876 carloads of paper mon
ev. Placed end to end, the tax money
would reach a distance of 6S2, S37 miles
or more than twenty-seven complete
lines OF distance around the globe, or
in other words pave a street eight feet
wide entirely around the earth.
