quarterly dividends on both common and
preferred stock. Indeed the net earnings
as reported are not only, except for
last september's quarter. tho smallest
since the first three months Of 1915, when
the Influence OF the war panic" was
dominant. but Janusry's net receipts
were without exception the smallest OF
any month since February of 1915. Had
such a showing eoineided with continu-
ing trsde reaction, IL would have been
highly unpleasant contribution TO the
talk Of Wall Street. But every one
recognizes II AZ picture OF conditions

per cent last week. and even the March
net earnings were almost double the
January figure.
Omaha daily bee., 1922-04-26

on the stock exchange today's move
meut OF prices was hesitant and uncer-
tain. with a downward tendency. Steel
common rose a fraction ana a few other
stocks made isolated advances of a point
or more: but net declines OF equal or
greater scope were more numerous. Rail-
way shares once more hardly moved
The March reports Of eSnIngs now IN
course Of publication Indicate that the
months increase OF something like rs
per cent in total car loadings must have
been III distributed. As against the New
York Centrars increase of sl.27c.o00 over
1921 in gross receipts or about per
cent. Union Pacific's operating revenue
decreased $4,000 or nearly per cent.
But the gain in net receipts. rs a con-
sequence OF reduced expenses, continues
general.
In other markets than stocks. there
was considerable uncertainty Of move
ment. Foreign exchange moved little,
though the German mark fell back rather
sharply. Wheat broke with a good deal
of violence. but cotton moved forward3
