LESS PRESSURE
ON Foreign BONDS
Railway Shares Display
Strength-Libertys Appear
Under Accumulation.
BY GEORGE r. HUGHES.

SpechI DISpatcn 10 The Star.
NEW YORK, January 30--Except
that there was less pressure against
foreign government bonds. which.
while duplicating in the more active
issues the low prices of Monday. were
not sold in such great volume, the
investment market changed very lit
tie today.
The strength of railway shares,
based on December earnings that
have surprised stockholders, was
found to be an argument for recon-
mendIng the purchase of railroad
convertible bonds and other junior
issues that are more dependent for
their quotations on earnings than on
any other factor.
Railway Issues Firm.
Such movements have followed
monthly reports of railway revenues
for some time. but there has been no
permanency to these movements. The
market in general is in control of the
two factors OF oversupply of new
issues. quite a number of which are
now available below subscription
prices, and the nervousness that eX-
lists over the foreign situation.
The ill-effects of the Ruhr occupa-
vestor. were illustrated In the offer
ing down OF ParisLyonsMed 6s sew
eral points and in the new low rec
ord for framerican 7l2s. Arguments
for selling these bonds were that
since the occupation of the Ruhr
French iron and steel plants have
had to close for lack of coal and
railway traffic has suffered from par
tial cessation of raw materials pre-
viously obtained from Germany.
Liberty Bonds STEADY.
Liberty bonds were steady, with
apparent accumulation of the tax
exempt 3Hs. .Short-term issues were
more In demand.
1t is encouraging TO know that our
government finances are in such
good condition as indicated in the
Presidents message on the budget.
The deficit. which at one time prom
ised to exceed $500, 100000. has been
reduced to 3e2.000.o00. with the pros
pect of y balanced account before
the end of the fiscal year.
This has been accomplished by
"thc adherence TO the policy of econ
omy an thd effective coordination OF
routine business"

TRADE BOOM SEEN

Margin of Profit Outlook Best

Ne" YORK, January 30.-The sd.

copper is produced from low-crads
ores mined and treated in large vol.
ume at low cost Once the pay point
is reached-that is. the point when the
selling price exceeds the cost of pro-
ouction-each unit of price advance
represents a practically equal in
crease In net income
Dispatches from Salt Lake Cjtv
Butte, Arizona and upper Nicbigan
today indicate that conner noininz
costs have been pretty well stabilized
Miners wages had their advance IN
the summer and fall of last year. So
iar as could be learned today no fur
this time. Mine timbers and ctI,er
supplies have advanced in cost, but
experts indicated their belief thar
these increases would be more than
oounterbalanced by Increased volume
OF production, stimulated by the ad.
vance in price.
Chance to Increase OUTPUT,
Many OF the large producers are
running below capacity. The Mich
isan mines have not gotten into full
swing. The Utah Copper Company's
ptants are not operating at anywhere
near capacity, and. while $4,000 men
are reported on the Butte pay rolls,
the Montana output is capable O.
large increases. In all these cases
increased volume OF production means
a decreased overhead expense per
ton and a consequent wider margin
of profit.
The statistical position of the red
metal is excellent. due to demard
from domestic consumers which has
been stimulated by the tremendous
programs for building construction,

pean crisis. but the tonnage recently
absorbed by Italy and Great Britain
