conditions last year as compared with
1921 which suffered from the post.

MEXICAN NEWS FAILS

American Companies Are Said TO
Face Big Losses.

BV United Financial
NEW YORK, March 16.-The state
ment Of Chairman Bedford Of Stand
ard Oil Of New Jersey that American
companies operating in Mexico faced
a loss of a quarter Of a billion dollars
because Of the exhaustion of the Mexi-
can field, failed to depress the general
level Of oil stocks today. While Pan
American issues on the stock ex-
change fell off a point, Mexican oil
on the curb rose to 2.
Traders apparently took the po-
sition that Bedford had said nothing
which had not been said before and
we're therefore inclined to disregard
his statements as a market factor.
The other feature of the early deal
ings was in United Verde Extension,
which rose to 30, new record high.
The jump in the quarterly dividend
rate Of 81 was behind this.
