AS MARKET CLOSES
List Subjected to Heavy
Profit Taking, but Shows
Strength.

NEW YORK, May 2.-On reduced
volume but with all the activity center
ing on stocks that were advancing, to-
days market again gave a good &C
count of itself. The best prices were
reached in the last hour when there
was a spirited demonstration in Cen
eral Electric, up at one time more than
IL points.
United States Steel and General Mo-
tors, together with many other stand
ard stocks, dragged, but specialtieS
made large gains. Among the features
at the close were Kennecott Copper,
United States Realty, Associated Dry
Goods and the Continental Baking is
sues, all of them substantially higher.
Money held at 10 per cent all day.
The early heaviness was partly due
to expectation of an increase in brokers
loans, to be announced after the close.
Another money pinch was admitted 10
be possible, and that was restraining
influence Nevertheless, it was signltl-
cant that sales in the first half hour,
when the market showed its most
doubtful tone, were only 515,400 shares,
against 10000 at the same time yes
terday.
Weakness in Columbia Graphophone,
which had been bid up rapidly earlier
in the week, and heavy selling of the
Advance Rumley stocks disturbed sent1-
ment. American Telephone & Telegraph
at 225 was down approximately 10
points from the price when the terms
of the new bond offering were an
nounced. It was also pointed out that
U. S. Steel had failed to respond to
the striking earning exhibit in the first
quarter figures.
When confidence was restored, how
ever, it was under new leadership. In
ternational Harvester was bid up over
S points before noon. Radio, changing
hands in large blocks, ran up to liz,
where it was at new high for the
present shares. Air Reduction and U.
S. Industrial Alcohol, particularly the
former, were very strong. Air Reduc-
ton at 1913 was up almost points and
at the highest the present stock ever
sold.

OUTPUT OF PETROLEUM
REACHES HIGH RECORD

Petroleum production in the United
States for March amounted to 82,515,-
600 barrels.
The Commerce Department, in an
nouncing the figure, said this was the
largest amount produced in any one
month ever recorded, but that the in
creasing consumption of petroleum prod
ucts, notably gasoline, resulted in
slowing down the rate of increase in
stocks on hand. Gasoline consumption
was estimated to have reached daily
average of $4,000 barrels during
March. or a figure II per cent above
the March consumption rate last year.
The grand total of stocks Of petro-
leum on hand was placed at 642, $50 600
barrels at the END Of March, against
634, O63, 900 barrels on hand the pre-
ceding month, and 612 ,928 900 on hand
at the end of March, 1923. Gasoline
stocks March 81 amounted to 47,2O5.O 600
barrels, against 100000 on hand at
the end of February, and Al 100000 on
hand March 81 last year.
At the same time the Commerce De-
partment's statement said that the sup
ply of gasoline in storage represented
but 44-day supply, in view of the in
creased consumption, while the amount
on hand at the end of February consti-
tuted a 48-day supply for consumption
at the rate then indicated.
Texas was the only State to record
daily average production increase dur
ing March among States important in
petroleum supply. The output in Cali
fornia and Oklahoma declined during
March as compared with February.

This Fast Age

DR.. Eli Moschowitz, an eminent
New York scientist, writing in the
Journal of the American Medical AS
ISOLATION, declares that most Of us
live two lives now as compared with
those of an earlier generation. "A
man who attains the age of fifty
today" he says, "has in reality lived
one hundred years, as years were for
merly reckoned; and judging by the
deluge of inventions aimeGs at even
swifter methods of accomplishments,
the prospect of the individual OF the
future is that he will be an old man
in experience before his adolescence
has begun"
