Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 13.-There i
q decided increase in demand for COM
mercial loans in evidence throughout
most sections Of the country. This Is Q
most encouraging factor in the business
SITUATION, according to bankers. It Is
tney say, the more surprising in view
OF the fact that preparations now are
being made to gather money In for divi-
demo and interest payments on Decem-
Der Is and January /.
The demand for commercial loans
mas been almost at O Standstill for many
months and bankers say its revival can
mean only one thing-that the bottom
OF the business depression has beer
bumped and that the rise is at hand.
Recorder Demand.
Some wholesalers and manufacturers
are finding themselves hard pressed 10
meet the recorder demand from retailers
Tor some holiday goods. The shelves OF
the retailers were only lightly burdened
TO start with and the volume of trade
mas peen increased as more and more
christmas club and holiday funds have
become available. Sales of clothing and
textiles have been especially good.
In manufacturing lines there Is as
yet little tendency toward expansion OF
operations. This Is due not to failure
70 sense the improved condition of busi-
ness, but to the fact that this is the
inventory-taking period and most COM
panies are approaching the end Of their
fiscal as well as their calendar wear
They naturally are anxious to set their
houses In order In preparation for re-
ports to stockholders, and the opening
up OF new lines and expansion Of old
ones Is hardly to be expected.
The steel industry Is certainly on q
much sounder and more satisfactory
basis than 1t was week ago. This Is
Evening star., 1930-12-13
INCREASED CONNER CIAL LOAN I
DEMAND Is ENCOURAGING SIGN

specially noticeable In tubular goods
Automobile sheet orders are expected
to increase sharply after January !.
The automobile industry Is making q
final clean-up Of its affairs and there
is every reason to believe that, IS q
result OF the clearing up Of old cars,
the industry VIII enjoy strongly increaS-
ed sales In the frst quarter Of 1891.
Coal Mines Active.
The anthracite mines are doing ex-
ceedingly well and have done much
through their courses Of education in
use Of small sizes TO put themselves In
q sound position from q distribution
standpoint. The bituminous coal mines
are working, but not at capacity and
not at satisfactory margin Of profit.
The oil industries position is growing
better steadily, but its progress Is as
slow as Il Is steady. Competition Is
keen, buh the anticipated slackening OF
gasoline consumption has not been en-
countered as yet.
The copper people are putting their
affairs in order and the outlook for the
red metal Is encouraging. However, de-
mand for lead, zinc and silver does not
seem likely to rise to the point where
Textile mills are doing splendidly and
this tendency Is also shown abroad, with
orders coming in from England. Scot
land and Australia for American tex
tile machinery and parts.
The demand for machine tools is being
maintained steadily. The shipbuilding
plants are, most of them, hiring instead
Of firing men and the shoe factories are
buster than they we're before the recent
small cut in wholesale prices. Cigar
sales are at their peak now and the
cigarette manufacturers are winding up
what has been probably their biggest
sales year. Car loadings continue well
below the level OF December, 1929.

CURB SHARES WEAK
AT SHORT SESSION
Liquidation Drives Prices to
Lowest Point Reached in
Two Years.
BY JOHN A. cRoNE.

: &DeciAl Dispatch to The Star.
- NEW YORK, December 13.-Weak
: nom the opening gong, the curb mar
!, ket today moved downward at in
creased speed as the session progressed.
Few. issues and virtually no groups of
; securities escaped the generally lower
trend. Public utilities, petroleums, mines,
trusts and miscellaneous industrials
were particularly hard hit.
The market leader, Electric Bond &
: share, opened on q block of 5000
ssshareS at 401k, of 1lA, and later got
: down. to 1914. Cities Service, after
!, opening at 1612, off "a, moved frac-
!. tionally lower
Combined liquidation and short SELL
ing drove prices to the lowest level for
the year and thereby the bottommost
point reached in two years.
Selling began in the utilities, carry
ing Associated Gas & Electric A, Com
nnonwealth Edison, United Light &
Power A and American e. Foreign Pow
er warrants to new minimum quota
tions. Scores Of power and light issues
early duplicated previous lows and
more than so came within fraction
Of such prices.
Foreign selling has had depressing
: effect in petroleum shares. It has
I. especially hit Standard Oil securities,
which constitute one of the most I'M
portant groups of dividend payers on
the curb. Pronounced weakness car
ried Humble Oil, Standard Oil of In
diana, Standard of Kentucky and
! Standard of Ohio to new low ground,
and the selling spread to the rest of
the petroleum list.
! Gulf Oil Of Pennsylvania, which has
underway huge expansion program,
( and Indian Territory A and B shares
: were the first miscellaneous oils to
slide to new bottom levels. They were
followed quickly by Pacific Western Oil
and some Of the Pennsylvania COM
pAnies, which have suffered not only
: from the decreased industrial demand
for their principal product, lubricating
ell, but likewise from special condi-
, tions in their field.
