There was a real air of mystery IN Stutz
Motor shares yesterday, for instead Of
following the market down they continued
on their upward fight, gaining 3 points
for the day If there was one issue that
might have been expected to react 1t was
Stutz, for it had the greatest rise OF any
stock on the board in the last few weeks.
The low for the year was made on Feb
ruary Is at 1O054. That mark is quite
bit removed from the close of yesterday at
24S. The pyrotechnic display in Stutz has
been in a measure overlooked because OF
the lack of heavy trading. Yesterday s
turnover. for instance, was only about hve
thousand shares. The crash IN stock
market prices generally WAS reflected IN
Stutz to this extent-that the shares re-
acted l point from their high for the day.

The activity in White Motors has been
based on the belief that stockholders will

stantial stock dividend in the course OF
the next few months. Predictions are
made that 1920 will be a record year. The
company has doubled its capacity for
turning out one and twO-ton trucks and It
Is estimated that so per cent OF the bust
ness now being handled is in the lighter
truck The report for 1919 IS expected to
show that the company IS well intrenched
with working capital. Interests con-
versant with the affairs of the company
sav the property IS worth well in excess Of
what it Is carried at on the balance sheet,
