Drought Effect on
Federal Land Banks
Is Declared Slight

TO the full amount of payments
delayed 30 days and over had
been upl; the aggregate amount
Of payments on which there had
been delays Of less than 80 days
against which reserves had not
yet been set up would be about
$2,243.
"It ls the custom Of the banks
to set up reserves against the
full amount Of all payments de-
layed foA 80 days and ever.
AFTER deducting reserves set
up against possible losses, the
real estate taken over would
stand on the books of such q
bank at $1l,5OO. The total
amount Of sheriffs' certificates,
judgments, ETC., which were still
subject to redemption would be
$500. This in o bank whose
loans aggregated S1,104,O00.
These figures, rs small as
they are, do not represent losses.
For example, the real estate that
stands on the books of such q
bank ut S11,5OO net after de-
ducting special reserves, pos
sessed an original appraised
value of not less than $40, 900,
and the banks have been selling

In the past two years."
The Washington times., 1930-09-02

Effect Of the drought upon the
Federal Land Banks will be slight,
due to the fact that most Of the
sections affected lie within the ter
ritories of the strongest banks and
the percentage Of loans made with

pared with the total loans of the

years as interpreted by the Fed

are back about where they were
before all the bearishness went

some speculative buying, though
strength in this group has mainly
been due to short covering.

any commitments at the present

are better speculative opportuni-

Radio Rumors

The Street hears that the Gov
fernment is planning to drop the
antitrust suit against General
Electric, Westinghouse and Radio
on the patents pool. The story
is that the Federal authorities
have discovered they have no
case against the trio. This Is
just one of the rumors one hears
about the above stocks. There is
also talk that General Electric
and Westinghouse are to get
some big orders next week.
On Radio I hear that the
crowd planning to give it whirl
is waiting until a big operator
gets out. He is said to be switch
ing into General Electric. What
ever the real story, all three
stocks have been well bought for
sometime, especially General Elec'
tric.
There was some inside buying
in the oils especially Jersey
Standard, on Friday for the first
time In a long while. We may
have a repetition in petroleum
Of the old adage. that it is always
darkest before dawn.
The oil situation certainly
looks bad, what with lower earn
inps, weakening price structure
and excessive refinery operations
/ hear, however. that the refiners
may take active steps soon to
curtail production over the win
ter. The crude oil situation
seems we'll in hand.
Childs
Childs has been a different
stock for about week, and l
hear good things about the
company. This despite the fact
that earnings for the first six
months were only s. on the COM
mon. and that the hot weather
cut heavily into sales this sum-
mer. One informant in the
know says that profits are bigger
than really shown and that net
on the stock for the year viii be
substantial. Childs has more
eggs in the basket than food, for
ii has valuable real estate hold
ings both in this country and IN
Canada. It's tape action would
indicate higher prices. Buying is
said to have been high grade.
There has been some quiet
long pull buying in Newmont
Mining. The company is an IN
yestment trust with huge hold
ings in the coppers, especially
Kennecott, and the oils. The
current depression in both indus
tries is reflected in the present
low price for Newmont. 1t will
benefit from any Improvement
in these industries. It has shown
real earning power in the past,
profits last year being $22 a
share.

"Practice,' that's the secret of success in golf, explained Toivo Lahikainen, 10-year-old, after he had completed in tournament play the round of 18 holes at the Midget Course in 52 strokes, just 3 above par. But these is something else l that operates to the advantage of the light haired little fellow, who this week for the second time in competition in the popular indoor sport has gained first hon. CTS.
