Make Even Stance
By Bending Knee
BY SOL METZGER.

Not all uneven lies are on slopes.
Occasionally the golfer finds his ball
on the level. but his feet anything
but. In taking his stance one foot
settles into a depression of some
sort that lowers him on that side.
He can't play it as a normal shot
nor as one of the sloping lies.
What to do? Phil Perkins has the
answer. It's simple, too. Suppose

Central track coach, thinks of Clifford
Smith, 15.year-old sophomore sprinter,
who won the 22O-yard dash in the in

lunbia Heights School and doubtless
would have done better in the 100-yard

he not got off to bad start.

pointed to the fact that Smith stepped
the 22O in "a seconds fiat In the inter
class meet and says that he can do
the 100 In close to 10 seconds. He's
almost 6 feet and weighs around lat

Standard Oil Export Corporation.

The preferred stock of the Standard
Oil Export Corporation is unique among
stocks. Standard Oil Export
organized to carry on the
exporting activities of the Standard Oil
Co. of New Jersey and its subsidiaries,
is operated as a service organization
and not for profit with all operating
expenses paid by the common stock
holders in proportion to the quantities
exported by each. The company owns
no property. has no funded debt and
there are only 100 shares of no par
value common stock. The public inter
est is confined to 100000 shares OF .
per cent cumulative preferred at 500
par.
The preferred issue is guaranteed as
to dividends and principal jointly and
severally by the Standard Oil Co. OF
New Jersey, the Standard Oil Co. OF
Louisiana, the Carter Oil Co. and
Humble Oil g. Refining. The three
last named are subsidiaries OF Stand
ard Oil of New Jersey. Therefore, the
investment rating of the preferred STOCK
depends solely on the guarantee, not on
earnings of the corporation OF which 1t
is a capital liability. For all practical
purposes Standard Oil Export preferred
is a stock the dividends on which are
an unsecured fixed charge of Standard
Oil of New Jersey. The parent COM
pany, however, is so strong and its
credit is so high that the preferred
stock of the Export Corporation sells
on the low yield basis of about Al per
cent
1t is interesting to note that Stand
ard Oil of New Jersey has a 5 per cent
debenture bond maturing in 1946 which
sells to yield almost as much as the
preferred stock of the Export Corpora
ton. This is partly explainable by the
fact that the bond is callable at lob
and the recent market quotation was a
point higher than the call price, but
the market appraisal of the preferred
stock Is a striking illustration Of the
value of a guarantee when that guar
antee is backed by such large resources
as that of Standard Oil of New Jersey.
The preferred stock of the Export Cor
poration is callable at 10 and recently
sold around 106, so that it has almost
no speculative attraction.

EASTERN ROLLING MILL
IN GOOD CASH POSITION

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, November 8.-Supple-
menting figures that were released
earlier in the week showing a loss on
operations of the Eastern Rolling Mill
Co. in the third quarter of 1880, figures
made available today indicate that the
companys financial position is excep-
tionally strong, with the ratio OF cur
rent assets to current liabilities better
than 10 to /.
Current assets, according to A. j..
Mazlett, president, are $2,619, 900, while
current liabilities are only $3.50, 600, Civ
ing the company net working capital
as of the end of September of $2,-
5000.
OF the current assets, $1,820,000 Is
in cash and readily marketable Sc
curities
For the nine months the company's
net loss for operations was 1922, AIS,
after allowing $195,719 for depreciation.
Reserve for depreciation at the end of
1929 totaled $1,917,087 In addition, the
statement shows surplus on hand Of
81 000,7 99. The plant and property at
cost value was put down in last years
statement at $3,041 ,787.
In common with all steel companies,
the current rate of operations Is far
below the levels of 1929 and 1928.
Lower prices and much smaller tonnage
are mainly responsible for the sharp
falling OF IN earnings from last year.

STOCKS SUBJECTED
TO FRESH ATTACK
Market Says to New Lows,
but Losses Are Not
Large.
BY GEORGE t. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, November 8.-Agairl
under severe pressure. the stock mar
ket today was still in the grip of the
liquidating movement, forced and vol
untary. While the losses measured In
points we're not as large as on Friday,
the list as a whole again went into
new low ground, with special weakness
in the rails and utilities.
The market paid no attention to the
statement by the Democratic leaders
promising cooperation in any attempt
to overcome the industrial depression
Outside Of this announcement there
was little news that might be expected
to affect prices of stocks, and it was
plain that the market was concerned
entirely with internal conditions.
The opening was irregularly lower
after which came an hour Of sagging
prices. The lows of the session were
made in the second hour.
United States Steel, which was looked
to for leadership, If there was to be
any rally opened point higher at 141,
but could not hold the gain. A block
of $4,000 shares thrown on the mar
ket an hour later brought the price
down to 140, and then it dipped under
that figure to another new low for the
past two years.
With Steel went American Can,
Bethlehem Steel and the shares of
other Independents. Radio was pressed
for sale on its income rtatement break
ing TO a new low. For a time j. I. Case
held out, but 1t, too, made new low
before the close and the same was
true of other industrial stocks.
The rails displayed no important
rallying power at all. Sentiment toward
them seemed as pessimistic as ever
Among the seasoned dividend payers
that went to new lows were PennSyl-
vania at so, New York Central below
100, Norfolk e. Western, Delaware g.
Hudson, Reading and Southern Pacific.
The last named under par was the
lowest since 1926.
1t was the same way with the
utilities. American Telephone & Tele-
graph was a point or so higher for a
time, but then came down. New lows
were made by Columbia Gas, Con-
solidated Gas. Southern California
Edison and Detroit Edison among
others. North American Co. broke over
4 points without meeting effective
support.
Better resistance was made by the
coppers, = particularly Kennecott, pre-
Sumably on the idea that the movement
toward restricting copper production
will meet with success. Temporarily
National Biscuit improved on analyses
the liquid position revealed in
the balance sheet. Westinghouse Elec-
trio held better than the average, but
these points of relative flrmness only
emphasized the general weakness.

NEW YORK, November 8.-The
greatest expansion of trade and industry
yet seen in this country will come in
the next 10 years, according to con-
sensus of $50 editors of business papers,
who closed their three-day national
conference last night at the Commodore
In conjunction with the conference Of
the Associated Business Papers, Inc.
The editors based their opinion on
contacts with leaders in the various
trades and professions with which they
are concerned. This same group Of
men has frequently been called into
conference by President Hoover when
he desired information on economic con-
ditions.
Among what they believe are the
projects which will be developed in this
10-year period are the piping of nat
ural gas from Texas to New England,
the taking over by railroads of local
transportation and the development by
them of Store-to-Store delivery, and
the complete remaking of the electrical
industry. The great electrical COM
panies, 1t was asserted, are now ready
to manufacture new generating and new
transmitting equipment, which will cut
the cost to the consumer in half Among
these there Is said to be new turbine
in which mercury vapor will take the
place Of steam.
Housing by Insurance Concerns.
Small housing will be taken over
by great insurance companies, it was
predicted, and houses will be sold on
a large scale in much the same way
as automobiles are today. Food mar
keting, it was said, will be changed
through packaging and freezing, and
furniture will be made of all sorts of
plastic materials instead of wood Sales
volumes, it was predicted. will be in
creased by cutting the cost. with hun

CAUTION is ADVISED
IN BROKERS' LETTERS

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November 8.-Comment
in brokers' letters today was largely
along the line of caution in period
when heavy liquidation has taken place
and average prices are breaking daily
into new low ground. While it is
realized that stocks which are selling
lower than in three to five years are
now on highly attractive basis, both
from the standpoint Of yield and from
that of probable appreciation in the
next year or two, it was suggested that
it would be better Judgment to wait
until the market is stabilized and pay
higher prices for stocks than to run
the risk of q further recession from the
present level.
