WHEN-ISSUED TRADE
ON SPLlT-UP BARRED
Stock and Curb Exchanges Take
Action Following Confusion
in Such Dealings.


NEW YORK, December 22.-Stocks
created by splitting up existing shares
of corporations already listed for trad
ing no longer are eligible to the lists
of the New York Stock Exchange and
Curb Market on a 'when-issued" basis
This was revealed yesterday when
preliminary steps were taken toward
listing on the curb 5000 shares of
new common stock of the Kroger
Grocery & Baking Co., recently
authorized in plan to exchange two
new shares for one Of old stock.
The ruling also applies to rights,
and to shares created in recapitaliZa-
ton plans involving number Of
issues smaller than that already exist
ing. Such stocks and rights will not
be admitted to trading until actually
issued and the original shares are
retired. New issues which do not
represent stock dividends or splitting
up of shares already listed. will be
admitted to trading as heretofore, on
a when-issued basis.
The action was taken to prevent
recurrence Of widespread confusion
caused by simultaneous trading in old
and new shares of United States Steel
and General Motors Corporations fol-
oNillS i1A olONh oif1dCliNS Cctl llCl
in the year. Transactions in these
new issues, which amounted to two
and four times the transactions in the
old issues, represented to a large ex-
tent the arbitrage operations of pro-
fessional traders who saw an oppor-
tunity to make quick profits through
the difference in fluctuations. Such
transactions tied up a large volume
of capital and were held largely re-
sponsible for the huge increase in
brokers' loans during that period. The
strictly speculative feature Of many
Of these transactions aroused wide
spread opposition on the part Of bank
ers and corporation officials, although
many brokers found them a profitable
source Of revenue.

SPECIALIZE GAIN
ON CURB MARKET
numerous Issues Rise, but
Soft Spots Are Found
i. Elsewhere on List.
BIZ WILLIAM F. HEFFERNAN.

Special Dispatchsto The Star.
NEW YORK, December 22.-There
were two sides to the trading situa-
ton on the Curb Exchange today.
Numerous issues scored substantial
gains and some reached new highs for
the year. On the other hand, there
were stocks that exhibited an easier
undertone from the outset and ended
the session in listless manner This
condition was thought to have been
brought about by pool operators who
have been switching from one group
to the other in an effort to keep alive
trading interest in the market as
whole.
Pivotal stocks were less active than
they have been, and many Of the Sc
curities that were strong today we've
or the speciality. class, although mere
and there were q few old faVorites
that maintained a buoyant tone due
to special developments.
Gulf Oil of Pennsylvania figured
prominently in the trading. The
stock ran up approximately points
to lis, or the highest price IT ever
has sold. and buying continued as
result OF additional apprecldlloh VI I'0
revenue expected to be derived from
the contract entered into by the COM
pany with Texas Gulf Sulphur to
work large sulphur deposit on Gull
Oils property.
Shares of Herman Nelson Co,
manufacturers of heating and venti-
lating devices, came in for consider
able attention, due to the announce
ment of a declaration of stock divi-
dend Of per cent in addition to the
regular $1.20 cash per share. An
additional buying incentive was found
in the report that the company had
obtained an important contract from
Sears, Roebuck.
Industrial Rayon "a" was another
issue to show activity and it sold at
a new high for the year, above. %.
Mountain Producers and Salt Creek
Producers scored new highs, as did
Newmont Mining, which ruled the
most active of the metals. Public
utilities generally were heavy and
Standard Oils did nothing out of the
ordinary.
