BY Cosmopolitan News Service.

NEW YORK, March 19.-Strength
in steel, equipment and Oil issues
featured the first two hours trading

was nothing in the general news
that could account for this buoy.
ancy, but traders were impressed by
the way in which Athe market rey
sisted professional selling at various
times during the past week. The
optimistic character Of trade reports
over the weekend also stimulated
hullish sentiment, whereas the spec.
tacle of many stocks attaining new

indication that the bull movement
Is not yet completed.

lively traded in, advancing nearly

highs at 143%, TAN and 139, re-
spectively.
Copper stocks were neglected. but
ruled steady.
Strength in the stocks Of Anneri-
can oil companies featured the
petroleum section. Since the chair
- - - No
OF New Jersey gave out his pessi-
mistic remarks regarding the Mex
lean oil production, attention was
focused on the promising outlook
for American oil producers. Spirited
buying went on in Producers and
Refiners, advancing nearly three
points to 81, a new high. Trading
was extremely heavy in Sinclair
Oil, gaining one point at 1914. New
high records were also. established
by Marland Oil at AZ and Texas
Company at 525s. Low priced Oil
stocks came in for increased at
tention. White Oil at and Pierce
Oil at 5, were about a point higher.
Motor and tire stocks displayed

more than a pound to 83M, and
u. S. Rubber one point to 63.

Punta Allegro Sugar, which rose
to a new high of 81.
Rails Dull.
Railroad stocks were featureless,
although the trend was toward
slightly higher levels. Baltimore
and Ohio improved nearly a point
to 81 and Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western one point to 1877.

PRODUCTION IN
j. s. SHOWS
GAIN
February Surpasses Record Of
Any Month in Six Years,
Says Report.
BY HARRY GUsACK.

American production is moving
forward through increased produc'
ton rather than increased prices or
increased use Of credit, according to
q survey OF American economic con.
ditions submitted to the second meet
Ing of the international Chamber OF
Commerce, now in session at Rome.
It is pointed out in the report that
February OF this year apparently
saw a production rate achieved in
basic industries which surpasses any
previous record, except for month
In 1917. Conditions in numerous
lines Of industry are reviewed to give
evidence of the general business
trend.
Sales Increase.
Taking UP the various factors, the
report recited that retail sales value
increases, shown in index figures
with 1919 sales taken as 100, showed
the following changes based on re-
ports from establishments in eight
cities as covering December business
IN 1921 and 1922, respectively: Boston,
1s0 to 1913; New York, 1877 to 2O5:
Philadelphia, Ill to 1856; Richmond,
lit to 1884,. Atlanta, 164 to al; Min
neapolls, 128 to 142; Dallas, 159 to
148; San Francisco, 1S4 to 204. Even
in the case Of Dallas, volume was
probably larger in December, 1922,
than the year before.
Rail freight traffic between No
vember, 1922, and February, 1923,
the report shows, has contradicted
qIl earlier experience according to
which there should be a pronounced
seasonal decrease, with a rise in
volume apparent only with the open
ing of spring. Ton-miles statistics
were not yet available, it was added,
but car loadings in December aver
aged 1886, 900 per week and in Janu-
ary S45, 900.
Increased efficiency Of the rail-
roads IS noticed, as disclosed in the
ratio Of operating costs to gross
earnings. This has been achieved
ia the face OF reductions in the
compensation received by the roads
Tor their service. The 1923 rate
reduction by the Interstate Conn
n1erce Commission brought the
average of 1.2S cents per ton-nile
the preceding year down to LIZ
cents for the latter part OF 1922.
Total freight receipts, however,
were BIO OF per cent more than
IN 1921, and In this connection the
report said:
Volume Of Business.
This practical equality in revenues
In itself testifies to the enlarged
volume of business in the United
States; for 1t seems that the volume
was sufficient not only to over.

also the effects of the long coal

In agriculture, the partial re-
covery in prices has fortunately

report continued. value of all farm
products for 1922 reaching q total
OF $14 lat, 100000 as compared to

Hurley A PESS|M|ST
ON fuel OUTLOOK
Situation Will Be as Bad Next
Winter as Last, He Says

The fuel situation in the New Eng
land states and particularly in Conn
: ecticut will be as bad next fall IL not
worse than 1t was this past winter,
. Robert T. Hurley, superintendent of
the state police department told the
members of the New Britain lions
club at the regular meeting held this
noon at the Elks club on Washington
street.
Mr. Hurley, who was appointed fuel
administrator for Connecticut and
served in that capacity for several
weeks this past year, stated that the
New York. New Haven and Hartford
railroad which serves Connecticut Is in
a bad condition and will not be able
to mend this condition between now
and fall. AS a result he said, traffic
congestion will remain a serious prob
lem.
I The speaker urged everyone pres
ent to stock in winters supply of
coal during the summer months II
they are able to secure the fuel from
their respective dealers, as they will
probably be unable to get 1t in the
fall.
Superintendent Hurley reviewed the
history of the state police department
in Connecticut which he said was or
ga.nized in 1908. At that time there
were but Is policemen in the depart
ment where as there are more than
40 at the present time. He told of
the wide scope of work now being
done by the department and how 1t
benefits the rural sections Of the state.
Because Of the additional work the
department has. he said. more men
are needed on the police force.
Colonel Stanley, who has toured the
United States. gave brief talk on his
Journeys. William Goldthwaite and
John ]. Cream were elected alternate
delegates to the Atlantic City con
vention in June.
