MOVEMENT
|NRAILS
Other so-calIed Merger and
High Priced Equipment Il
Issues Gain

NEW YORK. Aug. 12.-The
movement in railroad stocks gained
momentum in the early trading
today, under the leadership OF the
Wabash issues. Chesapeake, and
Ohio, Rock Island. MissouJi-Kansas7
Texas and other OF the so-called
merge stocks. The high priced
equipment stocks, like Westing-
house, General Railway Springs and
Pullman also made additional gains
near the opening, as also did few
Of the industrials and specialties,
including Allied Chemical and Inter-
national Combustion Engineering.
The oil stocks were still eunder
selling pressure at the opening, most
of the Independent oils declining
fractionally in the various markets
as traders made haste to sell them
in preference to the railreai and
Industrial stocks. But after reach.
ing slightly lower levels the oils
displayed a little firmer tone.
Speculation in the railroad shares
has been stimulated by rumors that
the Nickel Plate merger is nearing
contamination and that Loree's So
called fifth system" embracing
Delaware & Hudson, Lackwanna,
B. p. & r. and other lines in the
East, with Katy and Kansas City
Southern stock in the open market.
Wabash common gained more than
2 points, while the preferred A sold
at q new high at 72k, up 2
points from the previous close.
The movement in Allied Chemical
international Combustion Engine
and other specialties followed quite
closely the line of Tuesdays adj
vances. General Railway Signal,
on limited trading, added Is points
to yesterdays 5-point rise and sold
at BIS, against its low price Of IA
"a month or so ago. American Can
was not conspicuous, and did not
better its former high record price.
Westinghouse Air Brake jumped
points to new high at 125A, and
General Electric was active at top
prices for the movement.
Financial and Industrial condi.
tons were practically unchanged
and call money loaned In good
volume at Az per cent. The grain

Every Federal Taxpayer Will
Get Some Relief From the
Proposed Law-MOre Than
Il Million People Will Be
Relieved From Paying Any
Federal Tax

Washington. Nov. "a. L4)---The tax
reduction bill, as completed and un-
animously approved by the ways and
means committee, will go to the
house providing for an estimated
cut of 1886 6,236,OOO annually in the
federal tax burden.

scnted to the house on the opening
day Of congress, December Z, provides
relief for every federal taxpayer and

tions would relieve more than a mil
lion persons from payment Of any
federal tax.

for repeal of the automobile passeng-
cr car tax, which the committee cut
from five to three per cent.

committee are estimated by the trea-
sury to carry the total reduction

ports from the treasury that the sur
plus this fiscal year would reach

as first estimated.

of which were repealed. effective up
on enactment OF the bill into law, and
to make the revised occupational
levies effective July 1, 1926. Chair

gether December 2, to ratify the

siOns,
