New York, February 2l.- tSpecial)- The announcement that the United States Steel Corporation is to inaugu- rate in April two new steamship lines, one from Mobile to Rotterdam and the other from Mobile to Japan and the Far East, is taken to indicate that the big steel concern is bent upon going after more export business, despite the fact that it is being deluged with orders for domestic account. The ves- sells to be used in the new services were built in the corporation's yard.
 The annual report of the Union Bag and Paper Company, covering opera tions in 1919, is scheduled to be is- sued to the stockholders soon, and it is understood that it will better the report of 1918, which showed $1432 share earned on the capital stock While the business of the com pany in the first half of the year was rather poor, it is stated by interests in close touch with it's affairs that the heavy increase in sales in the last six months of 1919 was moro than suffi- cient to make up for the early unfa- vorable showing. The 75 per cent in terest which the company has in the St. Maurice newsprint mill is said to be showing a good profit by reason of the high prices obtaining for this kind of paper.

Jersey. This company has sent an outfit of drillers into the frozen north of Canada, well inside the arctic cir cle. The drilling rig has been set up at a spot about 1,40o miles directly north of Edmonton, Alberta, about 200 miles from the nearest railroad
 However satisfactory the new projected railroad legislation may be from the standpoint of the rails, and there is still much difference of opinion, it is quite generally recognized by financial men and railroad executives that whole lot of water will have to pass over the dam before there can be a restoration of railroad credit For this treason bankers are not over sanguine of the success of such new railroad financing as will have to be arranged after the re- turned to private control. Many of the leading roads will, it is expected, come into the market for funds The head of one of the largest investment houses in Wall street suggests that perhaps 1t might be worth while for the rail- roads whose credit standing is not of the best to take leaf out of the book of the French government and take a chance with an offer ing of premium bonds. While there might be a question of legality of such an issue involved, to offer bonds in which there would be the possibility. of obtaining a fancy profit for the lucky holder whose bond was drawn before maturity, would be merely to emphasize a feature which has already been made use of by American corpora tions. One such is the United States sinking fund gold } per cent loan, of which a certain percentage is drawn each year and redeemed at 110
