Gross Sales Nearly 20 Per
Cent. Greater Than in 1919.

Although the last three months OF 1870

ness done by the White Motor Company
the net for the year showed substan-
tial increase over 1918 In point of sales.
That was disclosed yesterday when the
annual report of Windsor T. White,
president. showed gross sales to have
ben S1.99s,122. an increase OF 1913 per

STREET HEARS RENEWED
TALK OF FORD LOAN
Rapid Liquidation of InUen-
tory Considered a Factor.

Edscl Ford. who has been convalesc-
ing at Pinehurst from the effects or a
surgical operation. is scheduled to re-
turn this morning to Detroit. and tho
resumption of conversations relative to
the much discussed Ford loan in the
near fitNre would cause no surprise
among lcaal hnanciers.
Henry Ford continues to express the
opinion that he can get along without
Wall Street, but II Is suggested here
that liquidation OF inventory between
this date and April l win have to bo
extraordinarily rapid to obviate the
necessity of loan. In some quarters
Il Is believed that as much as $4,000 O0,-
600 of inventory will have TO be dis
posed Of In that period and doubt Is
expressed as TO the ability OF the auto
mobile and tractor market to absorb that
amount in so short a period.
Should the motor manufacturer come
to Wall Street for the loan, the price
no doubt would be as favorable as u
was when negotiations were first in
itlated, but 1t Is possible that conditions
and limitations would be altered IN tho
case OF fresh negotiations.

says the company, having sustained a
heavy decrease In its gross end net
revenues, had no recourse but to make
Severe retrenchment in its operating
expenses" 1T is hoped" he says. that
the rcadjustment period will be short
lived. but OF that no assurance can be
given. because 1t Is not restricted to the
United States"
The report refers to the action Of the
railroads in asking the discontinuance
of the national agreements and working
conditions OF the war period and says:
ut Is hoped by such action nom
employment and wage reductions will
be restricted to reasonable limits, but in
view Of the extent of the recession OF
traffic and In the output of the indus
tries with the wage reductions that have
been brought about In other lines OF
activity it Is hard to see how railroad
wages can be continued at the standard
scale established to meet war condi-
tiona"
'sThe railroads of the country" the re-
port also says. "are considerably en-
barrassed by the long delay in effecting
settlement with the Government for the
Federal control and guarantee periods.
which deprives them OF much needed
funds to meet current expenses and re-
duce their floating debt"
The net income for 1890 was s32.s01,-

and s611,479 to profit and loss The re-
port adds that until final settlements are
effected with the Government son,e of
the items appearing In the income state

essarily estimated.
