ports Sales Increase

NEW YORK, May 80. - Stock

president, stated that the average
net sales in the first four months
Of 1880 were up IS per cent over
the same period of last year. The
average increase in customers in
April of this year was 291z per
cent over the same month Of a
year ago. For the first four
months the increase was 18 per
cent.
Asked about the prospects for
an advance in retail price of
cigarettes, Mr.. Morrow said that
the present IL cent price is bring
ing customers in for other mer-
chandise. He also said United
Cigar Stores is protected against
any loss in the suit of Autostrop

of Gillette blades.
United Cigar Stores has now
retired $1,900,000 of an original

realized than if the sale of Securi-
ties had been delayed until the

Counsel for the Radio Cor

5l.4 per cent of its voting power.
At the present time the two
electric companies own oil per
cent of the outstanding Radio
stock.
The plan provided for the is
suance of 6,560,375 shares of ad-
ditional common stock, or the
equivalent of the number of com.
mon shares at present outstand-
ing. OF the additional stock,
3,948,225 shares, or go per cent,
will go to General Electric, and

DAWES WARNS
Of BRANCHES

Extension of chain and group
banking will concentrate banking
control of the nation in the hands
of a few institutions, Henry M
Dawes, of Chicago, ex-comptroller
of the currency. and brother of
Ambassador Dawes. told the House
Banking Committee yesterday.
He declared that growth of bank
holding companies has been &C,
companied by "a tremendous spec.
ulation in bank stocks " He
added:
Undoubtedly a great many
bankers located in our large
interior cities have visions of
developing holding companies
which control the banking stu
atiOnS in their sections.
They can draw a most al
Turing picture and appeal most
strongly to provincial and sec.
tiOnal prejudice. Personally, !
never have been able to locate
Wall Street very definitely ex
cept in a geographical sense.
but whatever Wall Street may
be they expect in this way
to become emancipated from it.
IF it is feasible to cOncen
trate the banking of a Fed
eral Reserve district in one
control in IL districts. does it
require any very great stretch
of the immigration to conceive
Of combination of these IL
districts and a new and a real
Wall Street?
Call il by an. name you will,
the concentrated control of
banking in a few hands is
involved and in spite of the
size and resources of our COun
try the number of hands will
be very few"
