TIRE BUSINESS GOOD,
RESERVE BANK SAYS
Operations in Many Lines in Cleve-
land Area Still Below This
Time Last Year.

BY the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, March SIN
contrast with most other industries.
which are tagging behind. tire manu-
iy better than a year ago. says the
monthly business review of the
Fourth Federal Reserve Bank
A canvass of all industries in the
district comprising Ohio, parts of
Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ken
lucky shows that operations in many
lines are still running behind the cor
responding period of 1925.
However. the seasonal increase in
business activity In the district CON
tinued to manifest itself during Feb
ruary.
Possibility of strike in April has
confused the coal situation. Retail
trade was shown to be a little disap-
pointing, while business in clothing
ana various other lines was fair to
good, even II behind thu exceptionally
active levels Of 1925.
The Kentucky hurley tobacco prices
have been fairly stable during the
last two months although very
low in comparison with the price OF
about FL cents pound received
year ago.
Credit conditions, the review says.
remain sound, with the supply ample
to cover requirements. February sta
tistics were not available to the bank.
but a comparison made of January
figures in the three important indus
tries of the district-iron and steel,
automobiles and building-threw con-
siderable light on the decline in gen.
eral business from 1925. Automobile
output, the bank found, ran over 90
per cent behind last year during jan
uary; pig iron output was 6.6 per cent
less: steel ingot SO per cent less, and
building contracts awarded, 16 per
cent less.

ERYMAN'S
INVESTMENTS
Questionable Practice.
BIZ GEORGE r. HUGHES.

There Is a legitimate use for put
and call trading discussed in the two
preceding articles in this series and
there Is an Legitimate use The
latter Is when the buyer of either a
put or a call has no intention of de-
livering or accepting stock, but is
simply betting with the option dealer
on the market and the transaction is
settled by the payment of the differ
ences.
1t Is this misuse of the privilege
which has brought it into disrepute
with many people and is back of the
prohibition that prevents the making
OF offers and selling puts and calls on
the floor of the New York Stock Elk
change.
There is. on the other hand, a per-
fectly proper function involved. Sup
pose the speculator Is long of a block
of stock in which he has substa initial
profits. He la of the opinion that the
market price will go much higher and
that his profits will be increased ac-
cordingly. Still he Is not sure of IL
and he wants to limit his risk. 10 he
buys put on the number of shares
he holds at such price below the
market as the put and call dealer Is
willing to sell at.
To ILLUSTRATE: Suppose a Spectator
has 100 shares of u. S. Steel common
which cost him $50 and which In now
selling at 1877, showing a 7-point profit.
II he can buy put at 154 he knows
that no matter how sharply Steel com
mon might break he can at least get
that price for his shares and 10 ga "a
some of his profit. In this case the
buying Of the put is somewhat similar
to stoploss order. Or turn 1t around
and suppose that the speculator is
short of u. S. Steel at 1865. the market
price now being as before. 1877. This
short seller has an S-point profit. He
thinks the price will go still lower, but
he isn't sure of 1t either. SO he buys
a call on tho stock at a certain mum
Der Of points above the market.
RI the call is quoted 5 points M
that would make the call price 1852 and
the Spectator knows that for {
| month TO come he can always buy L
S. Steel at least 3 points below the
figure at which he originally sold II
This, too, Is form of insurance de
signed to protect profits.

COTTON HAS RALLY

; Gain on Week End Cover
ing and Buying.


NEW YORK, March "a further
decline of one to five points at the
opening of the cotton market today
attracted considerable buying and
prices rallied on covering for over the
week end. The initial selling was pro-
NOTED by relatively easy Liverpool and

lied to 1927, while October advanced
. from 1883 to 14.5s, the general mar
ket showing net gains Of some three
or four points by the end of the first
hour. The rally was encouraged by
reports of increased activity in the
domestic goods markets and there
were also reports that Southern spot
holders were resisting declines in the
basis.
Private cable reported hedging and
continental liquidation in Liverpool.
