BANK To ERECT
LARGER HOME
Up TOWN
Washington Loan and Trust
Plans Improvements at
18th and G Streets.
BY HARRY GUSACK.

Wofk of erecting a handsome new
bank building for the uptown office
OF the Washington Loan and Trust
Accompany will be begun this spring,
IT. was announced today by officials
fOfs that institution. The uptown Of
vice of this bank is at present To-
catsd at Seventeenth and G streets
northwest, on which site the new
structure will be built.
Plans for the new building. it is
understood, are about to be pre-
scented to the fine arts commission
Tor approval. 1t is proposed to
have the structure in harmony ar
chitecturally with the Government
. and other important buildings in
that part of the city Some of the
tenants in the present building are
vacating to allow work on the bank
to commence soon.
The plan of the Washington Loan
and Trust Company are in keeping
with the general development of
business in that section of the Dis
trict, as well as of the recent growth
in banking
Farm Loan Board Report.
The year 1922 has been one of
steady and consistent progress in
the development of the Federal
farm loan system. There have been
made during the year, through the
Federal land banks, 74,O55 loans in
kthe aggregate sum of 1924, 301 400.
This is very gratifying result in
the figures involved. but a feature
much more gratifying to those
charged with the administration Of
the banks is that it represents a
complete response to the borrowing
demands upon the system, and that
II shows u steady and normal flow
OF business by months. In view
of the fact that the year has been
one of very considerable borrowing
demand. we believe it may be ac-
eepted as measuring the maximum
call upon the banks and as demon
stratiHg their capacity to respond
70 such demand under any except
very unusual and extraordinary
conditions
Equally gratifying have been the
financial operations of the banks.
During the year farm-loan bonds
to the total of $27S $1,000 have
been sold to the public. These
sales being in excess of the loaning
demand, the excess was used to
call and retire bonds held by the
Treasury in the sum of SO, 80 ,00",
thereby reducing the Treasury hoiAf
1ngs as of December 81 to $112,-
$4,000

STOCKS
On UPWARD
TREND
Resumption of BuIIish ActiVi-
ties Features Early
Trading.
BY Cosmopolitan News Service.


NEW YORK, Feb. 15.-Resump-
tion of bullish activities in various
directions marked the first two
hours of trading on the stock ex-
change today. The slight setback,
which the market received yester-
day, was considered to- be suffi-
cient, and profit-taking was notice
able only in sporadic instances.
However, the extent of the recent
rise rendered traders more cautious.
Operations for the rise were
therefore more cOnservetively con-
Quoted and converged mainly on
those stocks, which by reason of IA
vorable trade development. did not
have their full share of the recent
appreciation.
Capacity operations in the steel
mills and accompanying rising
prices for all products created a
broad buying movement in all steel
stocks. Gulf States led the advance,
reaching a new high of 96A, for
gain of points. Spirited buying
also took place in Crucible. improv-
ing points at 813s, and Vanadium
rising over a point to 42A.
Equipment stocks were rather
dull, with Baldwin slightly below
yesterdays level.
Copper Gains.
Quiet accumulation, which went
on during the past week or so. was
followed today by more aggressive
bidding for practically all copper
stocks, copper selling at 15K cents
a pound, the highest rise in two
years, giving more confident at
titude toward these stocks. Utah
Copper gained points at 69%
Anaconda at 49A, Cerro de Pasco
at 46A, and American Smelling and
Refining were about a point higher.
Interest waned in the sugar-pro-
ducing companies. Prices continued
reactionary in sympathy with lower
quotations in the raw sugar mar
ket. Cuban Cane preferred at san ii,
Cuban American at 33, and Punta
Allegro at 55A, were point lower
Cosden and Royal Dutch featured
the oil section, the former advanc-
ing to 5S3s and the latter rising
nearly 2 points to 54b on buying
for foreign account. California Pc
troleum was firm at 81%, but other
oil shares did not command much
attention.
Chandler Motor attracted atten-
ton, advancing 2 points to TAN.
studebaker was dull, but steady at
1881.
Railroad stocks were colorless
and devoid Of feature. Fluctuations
were narrow, but the trend was
mixed. Baltimore and Ohio at 51B
and st. Paul preferred at 43A were
fractionally higher. New Haven at
2OH, and Northern Pacific at 7213,
were slightly lower.
American Can stood out among
the specialties, surging forward to
98R, a gain of more than 4 points
and a record high. Speculative en-
thusiasm was undoubtedly linked
with rumors regarding an impend-
ing stock dividend. Dupont de
Nemours jumped 51s points to 100.
Gains from l to 2 points were re-
corded by General Electric at 1861,
Westinghouse at 64h, and North
American at 1879.
Hayes Wheel and Cuban Do
minion Sugar. newcomers on the
board, sold at al and 9, respectively,
or fractionally above yesterdays
close on the curb exchange.

Coach Ben Cubbage and Manager
Baker have returned from Phlla'
deluhia where they went to pur-
chase togs for the outfitting OF the
Virginia Tech Varsity that plays
North Carolina State in Norfolk

out yesterday In their new flxtngs
and the team has taken on new lie
since the distressing fire of Sunday
that almost wiped them out OK ex-
istance. .
Monday the team worked out In
citizens clothes and it was mot
ley crowd that gathered at Miles
Field to get the kinks out OF
muscles. Don Rutherford. Teen
star dropkicker and triple threat
man, was rugged up In a borrowed
track suit, but this in no way IN
terferred with his kicking boot.
Rutherford dropped over three
from the 35-yard strip ana one
from the forty. rutherford IS the
greatest point getter on the GOD
Dler squad. He has scored forty
six of his teams seventy-elgnt TINS
year. He Is expected to be the
shining light in running the enos
and dropkicking against state III
Norfolk next Saturday.
Yesterday the Techs had tnelr
first real workout in their new
clothes. The stiffness of the new
togs handicapped them somewhat
but they will be in fine shape Tor
the Wolf Pack in what is con-
sidered as one of the most inn
portant games on the schedule.
Local lights of Norfolk, Suffolk
and Portsmouth will appear In the
Norfolk game There will be Capt
Harry Sutton, Cecil De la Barre
Eddie Liebrecht, Zip Owens ana a
number of others who have won
local fame in and around Norfolk:
Coach Cubbage will give each OF
these man a chance to exhibit be-
