SAYS FOREIGN LOANS AID
AMERICAN INDUSTRIES

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 21.-Dr.
George w. Edwards, economist for
Stone, Webster & Blodgett, says Amer
lea is now lending money abroad at the
rate Of about $2,OO0,Ooo a year, and
that the total of the United States in
veStmentS approXimateS $4,000, ,000,0 900
The question has often been raised in
connection with these foreign accounts
whether the money being sent abroad
increases foreign competition. Is 1t
being put into investments which, in
turn, compete with the investments OF
foreign citizens in their own lands?
DR.. Edwards attempts to answer that
when he says:
1--WE have gone into this question
rather carefully, and our inquiries show
that less than $750,000,000 of all the
money we have sent out in the last five
years went into industry which by any
stretch of the imagination could be
called competitive"
Then another question: Does the
sending of American money abroad
lead to unemployment at home? Mr..
Edwards answers this, also, in the
negative.
Actually It leads to increased en-
ployment, since when loan is made
1t goes out in the form, not Of gold, but
of goods which must be manufactured
before being sent out"

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 21.-The
rate for bankers acceptanceS yesterday
was moved up to about a parity with
the Federal Reserve rediScount rate.
This ordinarily would mean that the
rediScount rate also might be raised,
for in banking practice a spread OF
from one-quarter to one-half per cent
is generally maintained.
It is doubtful, however, If the Fed
eral Reserve will make change in
its rate of discount, preferring to exert
its effect over the market for Specu-
lative money by indirect rather than
by direct procedure.
This it can do and, apparently in
tends to do, by withdrawing gradually
as buyer of acceptances, after having
taken up a very large amount OF this
paper In the last three months, and in
this way lessened the strain on the
credit situation. The Federal Reserve
policy is to maintain as long as pos
sible a moderately low rate for COM
mercial paper, and thereby prevent any
handicap to business while at the same
time making it as difficult as possible
for those who borrow money for the
primary purpose Of specializing in the
stock market.
Another phase of the discrimination
between borrowers for business and bor-
rowers for speculation is to be found
in the considerable amounts of money
being loaned at 6 per. cent for fairly
long terms to corporations and at be-
tween 812 and 10 per cent for 80 days
to brokers. Some of the latter have
complained that they could not get
time loans even at this high rate.
Between now and the end Of De-
cember interest rates, not only in New
York, but in European money markets
are expected to advance sharply. The

NEW YORK, December 21.-Away

This year about 200 blocks of these
decrepit securities were sold. in lots OF
from S or 10 to several hundred shares
each. For SIS one could pick up load

BY KENNETH ,. VAN SIhUM'
NEW YORK, December 21.-During
the recent break no group OF stocks
suffered as heavily as the oils. That
this break was something more than q
technical reaction is shown by the fact
that the 70 stocks which rose most from
June to November included only four
oils, while of the 70 stocks which de-
clined most sharply in the recent break
there were IL oil stocks. While few oils
lost all of the ground gained since June,
there seems to be a feeling that the rise
in oil stocks had been somewhat faster
than the improvement in the industry
warranted.
It is common knowledge that from a
consumption standpoint the oil industry
is on a stable basis. The continued IN
crease in the use of petroleum products,
particularly as fuel and for motor cars,
has caused consumption figures to reach
new record levels continuously. This
year the demand for gasolene has lifted
consumption higher than ever.
The Nightmare.
The constant nightmare of the oil
industry is the threat of over production
from new wells or the discovery Of new
fields. The experience of last year Illus
trates the point At that time the dis
covery of the Seminole and other flush
flow pools led to great increase in
crude petroleum production. Although
consumption was forging ahead rapidly,
this increased production, together with
the greatly improved chronological
methods which permit more efficient
production and refining, were too much
for the industry and sharply declining
prices for petroleum products caused a
severe def1ation in the industry. The
prices of leading oil stocks declined
sharply at time when the general
stock market was rising.
A Vicious Circle.
Early this year a curtailment of oil
production had taken place and condi-
tions began to improve. At the same
time under the stimulus of the pros
perity Of the motors consumption went
ahead at a fast pace. As result lead
ing oil stocks shared in the general
stocks market rise.
During the past year the oil industry
has tried to restrict production by CO.
operation among the producers, with
the result that prices were increased
somewhat. At the time of the price in
creaSes last Summer it was believed that

Withdrawals of gold, which suggested
the possibility of an advance In its

Crude Production Mounting.

increasing rapidly and during the week
ended December Is averaged 2,548, ,226
barrels daily, which is very close to the
peak of 2,546, 100 reached during the
worst part of the 1927 deflation. Up
to the present time the prices Of petro-
leum products have not been affected
by the increasing production.
Practically all Of the profits Of the

Ii. D. TO PROTEST
FASCIST TORTURE
OF W 0 R K E R S
To Act in Cases of 3
Italian Communists

Mass protests against the impris-
onment and torture of three leaders
of the Italian Communist Party, An
tonic Cramsci, Umberto Terracini
and Fabrizio Maffi, are being or
ganized by the New York section
of the international Labor Defense,
709 Broadway.
At a meeting of all the Italian
branches of the New York section,
active steps to organize, these pro-
tests were decided upon in response
to an appeal sent to all working
class organizations by the national
office of the /. L. D.
At Point of Death.
Both Gramsci and Terracini are
at the point Of death, reports state.
Despite the fact that he is seriously
i'll with tuberculosis, Gramsci has
been subjected to unspeakable tor
lures for the crime of being a men,
Der of the Communist Party. Ter
racini and Maffi are former depu-
ties and both of them are also dan
gerously ill as a result of their suf-
ferings.
The New York section of the In
ternational Labor Defense aims to
enlist thousands of workers in pro-
tests against the savage torture of
these three leaders of the Italian
working class who are only three
out of hundreds of similar victims
of Mussolini's bloody regime.
Form 2 New Branches.
In order to further the work of
the 1. L. D. it was decided at the
meeting of the Italian branches to
organize two new branches; one in
Hoboken and the other in New
Brighton, S. l. The latter has been
named after Gastone Sozzi, the
Italian Communist who was tor
tured to death by the Mussolini re-
CINE. 1t was also decided to elect
an Italian city secretary to coor-
dinate the work Of the various
branches. Peter Midella was elected
to this office.
