serious mistake in withdrawing its
membership from the Automobile As

ton, John N. Mackall, chairman of

that, SO far as he knows, the latter

that 1t Is broadcasting misinforma-

Mr.. Mackall strenuOusly opposed the
change, but. when he saw the attitude
of the members in the>shape of a post
card election, he remained silent. The
vote as tabulated stood approximately
$50 for the change and IS opposed to
such a move.

9. E. Ceer, Industrial Leader,
Predicts Next Ten Years
As Profitable Era.
By Cosmopolitan News Service.


RICHMOND, Va, Nov. 24.-The
South within the next ten years will
see its greatest era OF industrial de-
velopment, B. e. Geer, president and
treasurer OF the Judson Mills, Green.
vile, S. c., told q convention Of the
Robert Morris associates here. There
will be especially marked advance
ment Of the cotton mill industry in
this period. with the building of dye
plants, finishing plants, print works,
textile machinery and the like as out
standing features Of the development,
Geer said.
Within the next five years, he pre-
dicted, practically all fine and fancy
goods are going to be finished in the
South.
Mr.. Geer pointed out that the
South now has $3.50, 200, 900 invested
In cotton mills, which consumed last
year 3.733,000 bales of cotton, as com.
pared with 2,178,000 bales for the
rest Of the country.
The development of this industry
from 1870 mills in 1880 with S2l,978,.
900 capital to go mills with $3.50.
100000 capital at present Is one of
the romances Of American history,
he said.
Mr.. Geer said much of the success
of the Southern cotton mills was due
to the character Of the labor which
they employ. the operatives being
almost all native Americans Of the
purest Anglo-Saxon stock.

Business Improves.

The outstanding feature of October
business conditions, according to fig
ures compiled by the Department OF
Commerce in its Survey of Current
Business, was the large increase In
production In the basic commodities
The output of pig iron and steel in
Cots, the consumption of cotton and
silk and the output of cement all eX
ceeded in October any previous
month since 1920.
The clearing up Of the bituminous
coal situation has enabled the steel
mills to increase their operations. but
untitled steel orders continued to
gain. Production of both bituminous
and anthracite coal show further in
creases, but the transportation situa
ton, with a record postwar shortage
Of cars, Is still limiting factor, not
only for coal, but steel, building ma
terials and other products for which
the demand has increased.
Dwindling stocks, delays in trans
portation and increased wages, due
70 labor shortage, have combined to
raise prices to a marked degree. The
volume of business, as reflected In
sales of mail-order houses and chain
stores and in bank clearings and
debts, continues to increase and
credit has expanded to meet these
conditions. This has resulted in q
rise in interest rates and a fall In
bond prices.

Measure, Which Is Referred
to Committee.
BY HARRY GUSACK.

The rural credits bill. sponsored
oy Eugene Meyer. jr., managing d.
Rector of the War Finance Corpora
ton, was introduced in the Senate
Yesterday by Senator Capper of
Kansas.
The bill was referred to the Com.
mittee on Banking and Currency, OF
which Senator Mclean, OF Con-
necticut, Is chairman. The COM
mittee is expected to begin hearings
some time in December following the
annual address Of President Harding
TO Congress, in which a recon-
mendation for the enactment of rural
credit legislation will be made. 1t Is
understood that Mr.. Meyer Is seek
ing the Presidents Endorsement OF
the Capper bill, but the President Is
likely to deal with the subject only
In a general way, leaving it to Con-
gress to work out the details of the
bill.
Senator Capper believes that the
Dill introduced by him today will
form a basis for discussion from
which an acceptable measure can be
drafted. He thinks that changes
VIII be necessary. Most of the men,
oers of the farm bloc have been in
clined to favor the setting up Of an
independent agricultural credit sys-
tenn, and are of the opinin that the
Capper bill goes too far in it's amend
ments to the Federal reserve act.

BOND DEALERS

Small Bond Selling Organize

news CeTNlCe.D
NEW YORK, Nov. 24.-It will be
q surprise to a good many investors
to learn that there are any number
of the smaller bond selling organiza-
tons in New York and other tmpor-
tant financial centers which have
been greatly embarrassed by their
failure to dispose Of the bonds which
they have acquired from the big
underwriting syndicatss. Not only
so, but they have caused so much
embarrassment to the banking syn
dicates that the latter group have
determined to take effective meas
ures to protect themselves. 1t Is
an easy matter to sell good bonds
when prices are advancing at the
rate of point or two per week,
but the shoe is on the other foot
when prices are declining.
1t must be said, however, that
poor judgment was shown by many
of the banking syndicates in mark
ing up Introductory prices entirely
too high. thus paving the way Tor
an injection Of "undigested secpr.
tiles" on the market. A number lof
legal suits have been instituted by
against the dealers who have failed
to live up to their contracts and at.
tempted to throw back their bonds
onto the original syndicates.
The committee Of taxation Of the
| Investment Bankers Association has
been in conference with the Internal
Revenue Department in order to be
come posted on its regulations rela

ceived by non-residents on bonds OF
foreign countries which have been
bought in this country. Some OF
these foreign investors find them
selves in a very embarrassing po
sition by reason OF the fact that
they are compelled to pay one tau
In this country and another to their
own government. In some cases the
taxes amount to very nearly all OF
their income and in extreme cases
they practically amount to confisca
ton.
The Internal Revenue Department
has ruled that 1t is not called upon
| to withhold the tax on interest on
bonds Of foreign countries and for
| eign corporations placed in this
country when owned by nonresident
aliens. In other words. interest re.
ceived by a foreigner upon obliga.
tons to foreign governments not
doing business In the United States
is not counted as income subject to
tax in this country.
New bonds coming to the market
during the past few weeks have
been comparatively smaller than In
the preceding month. This may be
partly accounted for by the fac,
that the investment market was
quite fully stocked by the heavy
output, that the listed bond marke,
has been extremely irregular and
prices have been steadily declining
Investors are never 80 enthusiastic
about new bond issues when prices
| Of outstanding bonds show reac
tionary tendencies; they figure cor
rectly that they may be able to pick
up their favorites at lower prices
a little later. Then, too, 1t should
be considered that a good many OF
the buying corporations and indi
viduals will be needing large
amounts Of money for their year
end settlements and are, therefore
temporarily out Of the market.
