KENTUCKY REPORTS
GOOD OIL OUTPUT
Present Production Amounts to
Nearly One Million Barrels
Each Month.

. One of misunderstanding features In
the oil situation is the increase In
production in the last few months
OF the Kentucky fields, in which
much Washington capital is interest
ed. At present the State is producing
at the rate of 100000 barrels a month
while the last actual monthly output
reported was $4,000 barrels in Au-
gust, a high record up to that timr
Present, rate OF output Is almost
double that of the first part Of this
year.
Kentucky output is valued higher
than any other crude oil produced in
the country with the exception Of
Pennsylvania. Somerset light sells
for $3.50 barrel, compared with
$3.50 for midcontinent, 50 for Gulf
Coast, and an average of about 81 for
Indiana-Ohio crude. oil and So for
Wyoming oil. The market value is
enhanced by the close proximity of
the middle West and Atlantic Sea-
board
Cumberland Pipe Line Company's
runs are averaging about II 900 bar
rels a day. The other principal pipe
line carrier Is Indiana Refining com
pany. There is only one big refining
interest in Kentucky, Standard Oil
Company handling a considerable
part of the States output. and this
COMPANY has found 1t necessary to
enlarge its plant to keep up with
the growth in production.

%. Do the branch banks serve

%. 70 the Dranch panhs se''S
particular parts of the district
Yes. Each branch Is usually as
signed a certain territory embracing
the banks which normally transact
business with the city in which the
branch is located.
23. What are the chief governing
factors which determine the estab-
lishment of a branch?
First, whether that part of a Fed
eral Reserve district for which a
branch is proposed can be more EN-
GENTLY served by a branch than by
the Federal Reserve bank OF the dis
trict: in this question, railroad IA
cilities and mail schedules play an
important part Second, whether the
improved facilities afforded by the
branch to the members located in the
territory to be assigned to II VIII
warrant the increased expenditure
involved by the creation OF the
branch, and whether the establish
ment of the/branch will be a distinct
economic gain to the banking and
business OF the district.
"a. How many branches has the
Federal Reserve bank OF Rich
mond?
The Federal Reserve Bank OF Rich
mond has one branch, located at Bal
timore, Md. The territory assigned
to the Baltimore branch is the entire
State Of Maryland and that part OF
West Virginia, approximately ONE
half, the railroad facilities OF which
make II more convenient for the
banks located therein to deal with
the branch.
rs. DO the Federal Reserve banks
perform any services for the Fed
'eral Government?
Yes. They are required by the Fed
oral Reserve act to serve as fiscal
agents Of the Federal Government.
During all the Liberty Loan cam
paigns they acted in this capacity,
received subscriptions for bonds,
notes, and certificates of indebted
ness. made collections on these sub

RAILROADS PASS
AUGUST RECORDS
Railway Age Says Increased e.
ficiency Proves Wisdom of
/ Private Control.

The wisdom of the public in having
the railroads returned to private con-
troll after twenty-six months OF Fed
eral operation has been proved in the
first six months Of private operation,
according to the. Railway Age, which
calls attention to the fact that the
roads are going ahead with their in
creased efficiency program, and are
making records never before attained.
statistics already made public,
says the Age, regarding the number
OF carloads of freight moved in
August have shown that in that
month more freight was handled than
in any previous August in history.
Statistics more recently compiled by
the Interstate Commerce Commission
disclose the fact, which even those
in close touch with traffic conditions
did not know. that even in July, when
the effects OF the switchmen's strike
were still felt. the railways handled
more business than In July Of any pre-
ceding year.

Standard Oil Stocks
Still Skyrocketing

The manner in which Standard
Oil securities are shooting for
ward pricewise i'm the past week
recalls the days before the dis
solution OF the old Standard Oil
Company of New Jersey, eight
years ago.
Standard OF New Jersey yes
terday advanced % points, to
$50 a share. Buying Is attrib-
uted to the great strides being
made in the oil industry. Presi-
dent Teagle in n recent letter to
the syndicate Offering new stock
of the company pointed out it's
position. indicating that earn
ings this year will top the slOO,-
OOO, 900 mark and that produc-
tion will be in the neighborhood
of 100000 barrels year. a
doubling Of It's capacity in ~
months.
Standard OF Indiana went sky
rocketipg again on persistent
rumors Of stock dividend.
This has attracted not ouly an
investment but also a speculative
following. II Is believed that
stock distributions will be gem
eral among Standard oil COM
panies. and this belief was
further inspired by announce
ment of an Increase in the cap
italixstion OF Swan e. Finch.

1870 TO BE GREATEST.

with the facts now before us II
is safe to predict that the total
amount of freight handled in the
entire year 1920 will be greater than
in any earlier year in history. The
number of cars loaded week by
week still continues to show in
creases over the corresponding weeks
of previous years. In the week
ended October 2, the latest for which
a report has been made, the number
of cars loaded by Glass roads was
975.946, as compared with 957,596 in
1919. and 971,s95 in 1918. In the
week ended october g. as the sta
tistics of the United States Geolog-
ical Survey show, the number of tons
Of bituminous coal transported was
l2.O75.0 900, which sets a new record
for this year and closely approaches
the highest record ever made In any
past year.
"One of the most important results
the railways have obtained is the
practical elimination of all conges-
tions in their terminals. When they
were returned to private operation
on March /. the number of loaded
cars accumulated in the terminals
awaiting movement was almost 1O0,-
900 In the week ended October 8
this had been reduced to Al ,135, of
which nearly $4,000 were being held
at the ports for ships in the trans
oceanic and coastwise service. The
accumulations OF cars are now so
small that II may be said without
exaggeration that congestions have
ceased to exist"

The Federal Reserve banks have,

OF the highest value. The extent OF
the work of the Federal Reserve
Bank of Richmond as fiscal agent Is
indicated by the fact that the Liberty
Loan Department, including the war
loan organization, had at one time
approx imately $50 employees. Liberty
bonds and Victory notes were sold in
the Fifth District to an amount cx-
ceeding one billion dollars. In addi-

In the near future, the various
sub-treasuries OF the United States,
now in existence. will be discontinued,
and Federal Reserve banks and their
branches will be called upon to ex-
ercise many OF the sut-treasury func-
tions for the Government. They. are
already rendering an important SER
vice to the Government and to the
public in connection with the receipt
of deposits from collectors OF reve-
nue., and the payment of Government
checks and the coupons from bonds

many.
Answer-We beg to advise that
Columbia Grnyhophone has called a
special meeting of the stockholders
for October 27 to vote on increasing
the authorized common capital from
1900, 900 shares to 100000 shares !:
but IL is not the intention OF the COM
pany, according to President Whit
ten. to issue any of the stock at this
time. nor is II the intention OF the
company to do any new financing, as
1t appears that II has sufficient funds
on hand to meet it's requirements.
In the six months ended June 80,
1920. the company reported net in
come, after charges and taxes OF 81
S09.375. the equivalent after preferred
dividends to $2.13 a share on the
l.l5O,15l outstanding common shares
of no par value. Last year the COM
pany earned $3.50 per share, and after
the payment of $3.50 per share in
common dividends there was a sur
plus of $l.213,325.
So far this year the stock has ranged
between a low of SIS and a high of
S65Ia. At Saturdays closing price of
$40 the stock yields 5 per cent. Ow-
ing to its speculative character. we
cannot attempt to advise further

we must request that you decided for

Defies Death With 1000
Mile Flight During
Hurricane

A nonstop flight OF 1000 miles by
Lieut.. Charles y. Austin, U. s. A.,
over the Caribbean Sea Is pro-
nounced by Brigadier General
Mitchell here the most remark
able ever made by an army aviator.
Austin started from France Field,
near Christobal, on the first flight
ever attempted from the Canal
Zone to Washington. When 900
miles out he met hurricane,
which tossed his plane about like
n chip in the air and threatened
every moment to dash him into the
sea,
At one time his plane was within
twenty-five feet OF mountain high
waves, Austin says.
To make matters worse the pro-
peller OF the plane became slight
" out OF order. But at this mo-
ment fate favored Austin and the
hurricane whirled away. He i'm
mcdiately turned back to his start
ing point at France Field, which he
reached after ten and a half hours
in the air.

A/further set back occurred at the
opening of the cotton market today,
owing to poor cables, selling by New
Orleans and Wall Street interests and
less optimistic news regarding the
British coal strike negotiations
First prices were Is to AZ points
lower. after which the list acted fair
w steady on support from spot con-
Germs and a later private message
stating that a favorable decision was
expected on the British coal matter.
Relative weakness at New Orleans
was assumed to be reflection OF

'fected the market here so that by the
end of the first twenty minutes prices
were about so points under the
