POOLS RESUMED OPERATIONS IN
 STOCK MARKET
Professional Interests Were Assisted By a Revival of Public Participation in
 Days Turnovers
By Associated Press

New York. March 22.--Encourag ged by the improved showing of the fed eral reserve banks and other advIces over the weekend, which reported increased activity in many lines of in- dustry, pools today resumed their bull- ish operations in the stock market.
 Professional interests were assisted by an appreciable revival of public participation. Buying from that quar- ter concentrated in steels, equipments and numerous specialties which have yet to act on the recent decision of the supreme court respecting stock dividends.
 Trading was not so large In the ag- gregate as that of last Thursday, when total transactions approximated 2,0o0,- 900 shares, but was characterized by greater scope and price changes cov- cred a wider range.

 Trailing along with these leaders were other motors, their speeialties, numerous secondary oils, equipments and steels, including superior steel, which rose almost 5 points on an in creased dividend declaration.
 Shippipgs, coppers, tobaccos, leath- CTS and various unclassified specialties made up the balance of the trading, but rails were comparatively dull at slight changes. Extreme advances were shaded by 1 to 5 points at the end ton the hardening of call money from per cent.

There was March for sale early at 40.40c but the small offerings were soon absorbed and the price was for forcer up to 41.70c in the late trading, making a net advance of 135 points, and a new high record. Other months wore influenced by the strength of the spot position and also made new high ground. with May selling at 3S49o and closing at 3s.40c. The general list closed firm at a net advance of 37 to 135 points.
 There was some selling at the start owing to relatively weak cables, the easy ruling of exchange and the long range forecast for better weather in the south. First prices were Is points lower to points higher, with May and later deliveries selling about to 15 points below Saturdays closing ffruras during the first few minutes. The evident strength of the March position soon checked selling of the later de- iiveries, particularly in view of less IavoraDle daily weather forecasts than expected and the market turned firmar Trade interests were among buyers particuiarly in the case of July and enat oenvery led the advance in the oE Eas actve positions. selling up to So.soc' or 7b points net higher in inc later trading.

New York, March 22.-(Special) The complete pamphlet report of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation for the calendar year 1919, Issued to stockholders today, reveals few changes from the preliminary fig ures issued in January, when 1t was shown that earnings for the common stock were equivalent to $19.S0 a share. compared with 20.s per cent earned in 1918.
 An optimistic view of the busi- ness is taken by Charles NJ. Schwab and E. c. Grace, the two leading officials of the company.
 The report stated that net addi- tions to property account during 1919 for plant construction and properties acquired amounted to s34,021,0Ss. The amount estimated to complete the construction in progress at December 31, 1918, is s1e,000,000. The major portion of the expenditure for new construc- ton was made at the Maryland plant of the Bethlehem Steel Com pany.
 For the 1919 calendar year the American International Corpora tion reported record gross and net earnings ana an increase or x40,b26s 0s9 in It's total assets, the latter on December 31 standing at ss3.- 6s7,S02. Of this sum s4S,3s6,145 was in the form of current assets, compared with only s12,416,940 at the close of 191S
 Last years surplus, after all charges. including federal taxes, was s4,71s.167, equivalent to s94s share on the s50,000.0oo capital stock outstanding, contrasted with $744 & share earned in 1918, on $49,950,000 in stock and, $T50 share In 1917. Gross earnings from operations in 1919 totaled ss,153,- III, which was brought up to s12.- a27,7S0 by the addition of s4.174,- 668 of other income. Deductions included se,084,138 for operating expenses, $611,204 for domestic and foreign taxes, and $s3s,272 for in-

 Of the current assets shown at the end of the year. t1.s17.TS4 was in cash. $b,s5o,000 was out on call loans, S7,427.S60 represented bills receivable, s12,s36. s6s was due from customers, s5,214,496 represented other accounts receivable, while in- ventories were valued at S15,049,- i26, or practically double the total shown on December 31, 1918.
 Plans for a capital readjustment of American Hide and Leather are reported to be nearing completion. It IS understood that the manage ment now has in hand plan which will take care of the 114 per cent in back dividends. Announcement of this Is likely to be made in the course of the next six weeks, ac- cording to friends of the company. The hide and leather board has had the matter under considera- ton for more than two years. The last plan, which was framed last summer was found unavoidable, and therefore had to be abandoned. Since then the management has been devoting time to working out q new plan.
 For few moments right at the opening today the unfortunate shorts in General Motors common stock, the old stock had visions of paying $1,000 or more a share. For when they tried to buy to cover they found nightly slim float ing supply But the whole situa- tion changed in the twinkling of an eye. Some rather caustic criti- cism of the action of the stock ex- change authorities in ruling that the temporary certificates for the new stock could be used against contracts in the old stock was heard around the street The ques- tion was raised why the exchange committee having this matter in hand had waited so long before making the new temporary certifl- cates good delivery for the old on the 10-to-1 basis announced

recognized grades and classes of hides
and skins. Such an understanding
Will enable him to prepare and DISPOSE
OF his products much more Intelligent
ly and profitably. But even if he
should produce the best quality of hide
and skins, the small producer is at a
disadvantage compared with large
producers like the packers, for ex-
ample, because the latter handle large
quantities Of hides and can sort and
grade them according to the demands
OF various tanners. The extremely
scattered sources and the comparative
ly small individual production of com.
try hides and skins makes it impossi
bic for country producers to sort and
classify their product in marketable
lots.
Nevertheless, many features of the
present methods of marketing country
hides can be improved since these
methods support expensive nonessen-
tial profit-absorbing and speculatinp
Intermediates which operate, poss:b.
