ALL j. s. ISSUES
SHOWS STRONG
TONE
Both Long and Short Term
Notes Have Been Popular
With investors.
BY MUNROE ROBERTS.
Copyright. 1894, by Cosmopolitan
News Servica.l

NEW YORK, Feb. All issues
OF Treasury Department notes, both
long and short terms, have been
popular with investors. prices have
been gradually rising, and today's
level of active issues Is within a
point Of the highest prices attained.
The bulk Of the Treasury notes were
put out for the, purpose of refunding
maturing Victory notes, though
proceeds of some Of the short-term
issues were useful in tiding over
the Government Treasury while
waiting for quarterly payments.
The Treasury ANS OF 1e47-52 have
been quite active in the listed mar
ket Of the New York stock ex-
change, due mainly to the album
dance Of money and heavy buying
Of institutions. The issue Is rela-
lively small, and, therefore, more
subject to the influence Of sudden
spurts Of buying. It IL particularly
attractive to corporations, because
1t offers exemptions from the nor
NAL income tax, thus making the
yield approximately 4.20 per cent.
Last year this issue sold down to
q low Of 98 1872, after reaching q
high point of 101 1-32 in the early
part Of the year. In 1924 It declined
to 988-32, from which level 1T has
risen to 100 1889. Continuance OF
present easy money conditions and
the gradual exhaustion Of the float
ing supply viii doubtless force prices
slightly higher.
In the short-term market there
are five issues of Treasury notes
maturing In March, three in June,
two in September, and three in De-
cember, selling at prices to yield
81 to APT per cent to maturity.
Public offering was made today Of
an ihsue OF $4,000, 900 Parker Young
Company first closed mortgage l6h
per cent sinking fund gold bonds,
due 1914, at 971z, to yield approx
mately 6.75 per cent.
Other offerings included $S45, 900
City Of New Haven Az per cent
bonds, due 1929 to 1858, priced to
yield 3.95 to per cent; $528, 900
city Of Detroit 81 and per cent
registered bonds, priced to- yield 400
to 4.65 per cent, and $625,0O Los
Angeles Az, 5, and per cent regis
tered bonds, priced to yield 4.60 to
AIS per cent. ,.,t1<

TOBACCO INDUSTRY HAS
PROFITABLE PROSPECTS

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-The to-
bacco industry, which az whole
was profitable last year. starts the
current year with prospects Of
equally good results. it. was re-
ported today.
The greater portion Of the cur
rent prosperity in the tobacco In.
dustry is traceable to the steady
expansion Of demand for American.
made cigarettes. The domestic
consumption Of cigarettes last year
was sixty-five billions. That was
an increase Of fully 20 per cent
over 1929 and established a new
high record for that PRODUCT. Elk
ports of cigarettes increased more
than 10 per cent to twelve billions.
The grand total production Of
cigarettes, therefore, was about
|seventy-seven billions.
"A further gain in cigarette. pro.
duction is In sight for 1924" said
the Standard Daily Trade Service,
Domestic consumption WIN prob
ably show somewhat smaller gain
than was recorded in 1928. but
from present indications, sales eff.
forts Of American Companies in
foreign markets will. yield greater
results"

Influence With Stock
Market Bulls.
BY MERRYLE 8. RUKEYSER,

NAWa SAruinA

"a q u q -.
NEW YORK, Feb. hilbert Fl.
Gary. chairman of the United states
Steel Corporation, has thrown the
weight of his influence with. the
stock market bulls.
That IL the speculative sfenffi-
canoe of the declaration Of an extrS.
dividend Of so cents a share On
steel common.
Three months ago the leader ar
the industry set out upon the career
0I snartng Its peak prosperity OF
peace days with common stock
holders. who since. 1919 had BEEN
only receiving IS q share. II the
rate declared three months ako had
Oeen contlnued, the annual dividend
would nave been raised to Sc 4
snare. II the new rate persists thu
dividend will be 81 q wear.
Technically, Judge Gary and HIN
Fellow directors, including ]. p. Mo-.
gan ana Charles F. Baker. are l,,aT.
ing no commitments as 10 flIflDr,a

ters. In fact, they have esnouaad
the theory that the business outiooE
10 distinctly encouragfng. Their ac.
ton win be interpreted to mean thar
they foresee no financial storms
ahead.
Steel. the commodity. is the ba.
rometer Of industry generally,
Steel, the stock. IL. the leader Of
the market, and its dancing Ia s,,,t,
fro give tone to the whole speCuIa-
tive scene.
The signal, for the turn IN +ha
market, after weeks Of hesitancv
and decline last fall, came fhre,
months ago, when steel declared -
extra dividend Of rs cents. q shara -
Since that time the market trend
has been upward.
Inc company earned $16.42 a

than amy pre.war year.

There is another ASPECT tn the "a.
port. Il covers. the first three
months period in which the eirht.
hour working day had a genuine
trial. Mr. Gary indicated that the
three shift working day instead Of
the tWo-shift day added approxi-
Mately SIS ,00O, 900 to costs, but that
part OF this was offset by economies
IN: Qther directions. ssssssss !.
e The lesson Is that IL long delayed
humanitarian adjustment yvaa can.
sistent with good business ana
prosperity. The steel corporation
has demonstrated that it was boe4
Stble to cease, sweating labor and
to be. generous to stock holders &C
the same time.
For almost decade, all through
the fluctuations Of the business
cycle, iron masters, loath to ex-
pertinent, kept saying that the
present was no time radically to
change hours Of labor.
Prosperity is the time to inno-
vate, for in flush times there il q
margin to absorb expanding costs.

...s5..., News Service)
NEW YORK. Feb. 1.-The trend
Of prices was again upward in the
first two hours trading on the
stock exchange today. Railway
and industrial stocks shared in the
advance, which was generally based
on the rise in the reserve ratio OF
the Federal Reserve system to the
highest level since May. 1917, and the
publication of car loadings for the
week ended January 10 showing
the largest number of cars ever
loaded in any one week in January
on record. Such .unlnistakable evi-
dences of the nations banking ind
business strength were bound to
have q stimulating effect on the
entire list although the buying was
discriminatfVe in character and
mainly converged on those groups
Of stocks in which trade prospects
are known to be unusually bright.
The steels received the lions
share OF attention, United States
Steel establishing new high for
this year above 107. A further rise
i'm pig iron prices in the Chicago
district accounted for the great
strength In issues like Crucible,
MIL 0tdtC6 dI1O 1NCPuO14Cs
Marine stocks, too, came in for a
good deal of interest, due to the
Frightening complexion of the ship
ping industry. Tobacco and mer-
chandise stocks met with excellent
buying. t 80. g.
The oils. although steady, were
held in check by renewed heaviness
in .Pan-American, due to the Sen.
ate committees investigation OF
naval oil leases.
Motors derived additional stimulus
from rumors Of impending price ad-
vanoes, but the rubbers were sub
jected to heavy selling in spite Of
reports that the reduction in bal
loon tires by the Firestone Tire and
Rubber Company will not be fol-
lowed by a downward revision by
other organizations. Among the
specialties, Savage Arms. Renting
ton, and Columbia Gas were espe-
cially prominent.
The brilliant car loading figures
caused confident buying, of railroad
shares, the largest gains being re.
corded in st. Louis Southwestern,
Wabash preferred A, New Haven,
and Southern Railway, the latter on
expectation Of dividend declaration
in the near future.
Call money renewed at Az per
