ports to the commissioner of agriculture

mated earlier in the season The quail
ity OF the crop was generally good and
prices of all types, excepting hurley,

FINANCING VOLUME
INCREASES IN WEEK
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, April 12.-New financing
this week was not only heavier in volume
than the previous week, but was charac-
terized by the largest stock issue brought
out so far this year, one Of $4,000, 900
preferred stock sold by the Republic
Steel Corporation.
Stock issues have been comparatively
few so far this year, their paucity con-
stituting one of the most interesting
characteristics of the market for new
issues for 1880.
A summary of new financing for the
first quarter Of the year shows less than
IS per cent of the total was stock issues.
Bond issues aggregated approximately
81 400, 600 600, while stock offerings ex-
ceeded $453 1895, 600. Compare that with
stock issues in excess of 81 ,000, 600, 600
and bond offerings of $1,000, 000, 900,
S1OO, OO0, 900 In the first quarter of last
year and the distinct change in the
trend of new financing this year is
very apparent. Bond offerings have
gained IS per cent over a year ago
while stock offerings have dropped
about go per cent.
Reasons for the change are both
economic and psychological. Low rates
of interest, compared with last year
furnish an incentive to finance with
bonds, while the break in the stock
market and resultant loss of confidence
initiated against popularity of stocks
at least common stocks, as investments
Stock financing last year was the
largest ever done in any year. The
volume is estimated at approximately
81 ,000, 100000. Two dollars in stocks
were offered for every dollar Ia the
form Of bond financing.

AUTOMOBILE OUTPUT
IS BEING INCREASED
Factories Are Regulating Produc-

Dealers Orders.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
DETROIT, April 12.-Reports of
automobile factories on current BUSH
ness are to the effect that the last
week has been the best the trade has
experienced since last September. This
Is the second consecutive week to be so
designated, but excepting the lowest
priced makes, sales levels and produce
ton are still far below the peak rate Of
1929, which made itself felt in April
one year ago.
Ford scheduled output is being boost
ed to average 5000 cars day for this
month"; development figured on not
until May in previous statements issued
by the company. The other plants,
including the G. M. c. group, are keep
ing operations going at steady rate,
but the number of cars that are being
manufactured follows closely the retail
requirements, as shown by reports from
the sales divisions.
A relative idea Of present conditions
Is shown by comparison with the Ford
rate Of IL months ago, which was
slightly above 5000 cars daily. His
competitors, and there are four or five
more of them now that at that time,
are maintaining fair averages, but they
are much below the 1929 volume.
Among them, the three-day and four
day week Is being resorted to, the stu
alton being such that quick changes
can be made should greater quantity
be called for.
The selling picture seems still to be
pervaded by concentration of Effort on
used cars and overproduced new cars
to which sales divisions devoted the
last month. The sales executives are
waiting for fine weather and more gen.
eral business activity to restore the real
Spring buying atmosphere usually ex-
perienced at this time.

572 BALANCE SHEETS
SHOW DROP IN CASH

ANALYSIS of the balance sheets Of 572
representative corporations IN 81 differ
emf Industries, by the Standard Stats
tics Co. of New York, reveals that as OF
December 81, 1929, cash had decreased
40 per cent in q year, inventories hao
gained lis per cent, and value OF
plants, less depreciation, had increased
per cent. The following table shows
the dollar value of the three items as
of December 81:
I Plys9s : 1o,sSos SSSSSO sSiGS07OOO
No real element of danger is to be
drawn from this contraction IN cash
over the period, the survey continues.
To an appreciate extent 1t refiectS, IN
individual cases, expenditures Tor plant
expansion, installation OF new equip
ment or purchases OF new units.
Commenting on the increase In IN
ventories, the analysis holds that, max
ing due allowance for secular trend,
industry's inventory position has stead
ily become less and less satisfactory.
It's present condition Is by no means
pronouncedly uncomfortable, but It will
not bear further aggravation without
danger.
The increase in the value of plants
would indicate that the machinery OF
industry stands ready to adequately
keep pace with any business revival
even should it approach the peak levels
of last year. This feature of the situa-
ton is constructive as relates to certain
individual enterprises in that 1t means
further Heavy OUTLAWS for equipment
over, the next several months will not
be necessary. On the other hand, 1t
may well tend to contract machinery
sales during the ueax term.

Washington Real Estate Bonds fire Again in Demand
Local Investment Situation Has Been Improved

Bank, Mr. George Roberts, has this to
say Of the situation in money itself:
IAN outstanding development is the
sharp drop that has taken place in in
terest rates. marking the end of G
period of credit strain and bringing
rates to the lowest point in severa
years.
an its bearing on general business
conditions the advent of really cheaI
money has been widely heralded, ano
rightly so, as the most important ano
promising feature in the general stu
alton. That cheap money is tonic
for the recuperation of business ha!
been proven by long experience. Il
works in a variety of ways, by encourag-
ing commercial enterprise, new building
construction, public utility, railroad anc
municipal projects and the stock anC
bond markets, including the sale o.
foreign bonds, which assist the financ.
ing Of our export trade"
Some Improvement.
For all this, local bankers report a
better demand from merchants who are
now asking assistance from their banks
in meeting their bills for Spring stocks
So far this year there has been very
little Spring and as result shelves
are too heavily loaded with seasonablt
goods, for which they are awaiting
Seasonable weather. Bankers are get

Some of the larger institutions are

ize anything like the face value of
bonds issued under the mortgages
Many of these bonds have been sold
here, others have been shipped to New
York and other markets.
Many bonds on capital buildings are
being quoted these days at far below
their issue price, presaging trouble and
loss at maturity.
Publicity has been given to some Of
these bond issues and the manner Of
their overinfiation, not only in this
city, but all over the country, and 1t Is
this fact that leads to the belief that
this kind of financing is over for all
time.
Bonds Are Wanted.
Bonds are in splendid demand today,
that is, safe, good issues paying So to
per cent. Investors are searching for
the right kind and bankers also. One
of the most conservative bankers IN the
city made the remark a few days ago
that "he would rather have a good real
mortgage on Washington realty as Sc
curity for a loan than securities" Saw
ingS departments of banks are carrying
millions of the peoples money until
such time as desirable investment can
be found for the owners.
Small bonds covering city homes, say
for $4,000 to $4,000, are scarce, while
the lack of activity in building restricts
the issuance of notes in large blocks.
Money is very plentiful and is offered
in exchange for good bonds on so to
IS per cent face value basis at 5h to
6l2 per cent. Life insurance companies
offer money at the lower rates.
Stock exchange bonds are attracting
more attention. Almost without ex-
ception they are splendid investment,
perhaps a little high at this time, but
they seem to be worth it.

MODERATE TRADING
NOTED IN TEXTILES

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, April 12.-Dun's Re-
view today says:
Several factors have combined to
prevent a full development of pre-
Easter activity in dry goods, yet bust
ness has shown a decided gain over
the volume of recent weeks. More ex-
panSion in the next week Is looked
for, and merchants are stressing the
attractive values offered as a probable
ultimate stimulus to demand from Gus
toners. The general situation in
primary channels does not differ es-
sentially from the conditions lately OBJ
served. Conservative operations remain
the rule, while there is considerable
complaint of the Smallness of the orders
which are being placed, and also of the
effect of low prices on profit margins.
The trade is largely awaiting further
developments in respect of employ
ment of workers, action on the tariff
and the progress of crop planting, and
caution Is the rule"
