CONVERTIBLE BOND
!. LIST AGAIN ACTIVE
Copper and Telephone Issues
in Demand-U. S. Group
Steady.
BY CHARLES F. sPEARE.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. May 3.-Speculative N.
terest today shifted over from American
I. G. Chemical 81 rs to American IN.
ternaticnal 5i2s. The former re-
fected the absence of a short interest
which was run in yesterday, while The
latter was bid up over 2 points to The
highest price reached since the early
days of its listing.
1t was a session in which converti-
bles occupied the center Of the trading
stage. Substantial gains were made IN
both the Tennessee Copper per cent
issues and in International Telephone
412s, Public Service of New Jersey IS,
with smaller advances in American
Telephone & Telegraph las and Atchl-
son 4i2s. This weeks total OF oono
transactions shows a high percentage
of convertibles dealt in to straight
mortgage issues.
Although money held firm. with the
renewal rate 10 per cent carrying over
until Mor.1ay. there was better tone
to the nlen-gIe<s bond list. Fractional
gains occurred i'll AtchiSon As, Union
Pacific AIS and Baltimore & Ohio Is.
Some OF the railroad AIS that have
been recently made legal were also
strong, as well as some Of the non
legal bonds IN this group.
steady. This weeks statement of the
Federal Reserve banks shows that pur-
.chases of Treasury notes since April "a
amounted to about S4000,000, while
sales of certificates of Indebtedness were
81 900 600. The total holdings by the
reserve system Of United States Govern
,ment securities are nearly so per cent
lower than a year ago. In the New York
bank they are only one-third as large
as in May, 1928. Seldom in the his
tory of the Federal Reserve has it re-
.duced its Government obligations to
such a low point.
The more optimistic tenor of the news
from Paris today accounted for firmer
prices in continental European bonds.
German governments, municipals and
public utilities were nearly all higher.
: There were small gains in the obliga-
tons of Southeastern European coun-
tries. French and Belgian descriptions
shave held strong throughout the crisis
and continued so today. Italian con-
Vertibles advanced.
The offering today Of $10,000.0 900
Central of Georgia Railway refunding
and General mortgage per cent bonds
at 9S14, IS for the purpose of retiring
$4,000, 900 of per cent notes. These
were originally sold in 1919, when
money was also tight and the best rail-
road credits in the country were fac
ing conditions that later compelled
them to issue 6la and per cent equip
ment obligations and z per cent notes
This subsequently sold on an 8 per cent
and higher basis.

Grain market effects of the volun-
tary emergency export grain rate cut
announced by Eastern railroads will be
followed most closely by administration
agents and advisers who have helped
to bring the action about. 1t is the
outspoken hope of all concerned that
grain prices can be helped matter OF
some cents per bushel.
In my opinion, 1t will operate dl-
rectly to aid the farm price Of grain
throughout the West" said julius
Barnes, President Hoover's leading aide
in wartime grain price control. That
is an important objective, in view OF the
unduly depressed condition of the wheat
market in recent weeks"
Speedy movement by the roads, with
the sanction Of the Interstate Commerce
Commission. is promised to cut the
rates from Buffalo to Atlantic ports by
New York and other ports by sig cents
per 100 pounds and from st. Louis to
the Seaboard by 6i2 cents. The reduc-
ton will be limited to expire Septem-
Der 80.
Facts and figures upon which the
Eastern lines depend in making their
! tional proportions exists" show that the
/ United States has exported 36 per cent
less wheat from the 1928 crop than wss
exported in 1927. Further, on April
6, it was calculated that farmers held
149 900, coo bushels of the crop, against
Isl 100000 bushels at the same time
last year, while the visible supply in all
positions was reported to be about rs
per cent greater.
Except for this claimed surplus OF
grain, however business conditions
through the West traversed by our lines
are of the best" said F. w. Sargent,
president of the Chicago & Northwest
ern, one of the men concerned in the
general wheat discussion. I'VE look foT
a traffic volume equal to our best years,
especially if the grain situation can be
met"
W. w. Atterbury, president Of the
Pennsylvania; P. E. Cromley president
of the New York Central, and Daniel
Willard, president of the Baltimore 81
Ohio, all participated in the brief ses-
sion at which the rate reduction was
agreed upon Advance discussion en-
abled the executives to reach an i'm
mediate decision and leave the city in
the same day.
Several mingled problems Of industry
and transportation have been raised by
what the rail executives described as
the great accumulation Of grain in the
I West" Lumber demand is said to be
increasing as effort is made to build
temporary storage facilities for the new
crop Extra calls are being made on
Eastern railroads by Western carriers
for empty cars in advance.
use OF combined harvester ma
chinery, now general in the Southwest,
makes it probable that the wheat crop
will come out Of the fields with a rush
this year." explained L. N. Belts, who
represents the American Railway Asso-
citation in organizing the cooperation.
THE car demand may be correspond
ingly great"
