BANK CLEARINGs.

Bank clearings again show quite q
heavy loss. The total this week for
leading cities in the United States. as
reported to Dun's Review. Of $S,485,-
$4,000 is 24.5 per cent below that of a
years ago. At New York City clearings
Of 5000, 1877 900 disclose a decline of
ESQ per cent, while the aggregate at
centers outside of New York of $2,405,-
$4,000 Is 233 per cent smaller.
The week this year ended with the last
day OF April, whereas q year ago the
weekly statement Of clearings included
one day OF the heavy May settlements.
This condition would account, in part,
for the larger losses in bank clearings
that now appear at many Of the cities.
On this basis, the decline is really less
than was shown in the first half of the
month. This also is indicated by the
average daily figures for April.
Bank clearings for the week, as re-
ported to R. G. Dun & Co... and average
daily bank clearings for the last four
months, are compared herewith:

CURB HAS RALLY
IN CLOSING HOUR
Exchange Strengthens Vigor-

in Early Trading.
BY JOHN A. CRONE.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, May 2.-Stocks on the
Curb Exchange rallied vigorously in the
final hour today after steadily slipping
on tapering offerings in the first hour.
Oils and utilities, weak spots in the
first half of the session. in many in
stances regained their early losses.

was true Of Electric Bond & Share,

hammered in the bear attack at the
vious final levels.
Net income of $9,S76,831 in 1880,
against S11,482,114 for 1929, caused
some selling of American Light g. Trac-
ton. In some quarters 1t is believed
Electric Bond & Share will show q net
of $3.50 a share on the common for the
IL months ended June 80, but this stock
at present Is more influenced by pro-
fesSional operations than by corporate
developments.
The advance Of Auburn Auto on the

tor. Ltd, was little affected either by
approval Of distribution of one new for
each four shares held by a subsidiary,
Ford Motor Of Sweden. or better profits
earned by Ford Motor Of Iberia, the
Spanish subsidiary.
Weakness of oil and natural gas
shares was aggravated by two specific
developments Dissolution Of Oil & Nat
ural Gas Shares, fixed trust, because
of the unsettlement of those industries,
depressed such securities. Then earn
tngs contributed to the gloom in these

FARM
MEETS OPPOSITION
Legislature of Kansas Acts
to Prevent Extension
of S." TEN.
BY OWEN L. SCOTT.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CHICAGO, May 1.-THE corporation
farm, hailed in recent years as q pos
sible answer to the problem of profita-
BILE farming. today finds its shedding
rough politically. with few defenders.
In Kansas, where the Farming Cor
poration is a reality, the Legislature
has Just enacted . law to forbid any
extension of the system. The attorney
general there is moving against the
biggest Of the corporation FARMS
70.0O0-acre notwithstanding q re
ceivership If successful. similar actions
are intended against the remainder OF
the corporations.
Fought in Southwest.
The Southwest appears aroused and
militantly opposed TO this scheme Tor
mass production and factory methods
in agriculture. Senator Capper, through
his publications, is a leader In the
attack. In the Northwest less opposi-
ton is encountered. 1t is there that
Thomas D. Campbell, at present ad-
wiser to the Russian government, the
principal exponent of corporation
farming. has his huge wheat enter
prise. Application of mass production
methods In Russia has resulted In
huge production gains.
The Middle West is less concerned
with the Farm Corporation. This
rich farming section finds, instead, the
chain farm, built around the institu-
ton of the farm family, but with su-
pervisory management and co-or-
dinated marketing and buying. Chain
farming has become widespread since
banks and insurance companies have
found themselves holding large num-
bers of farms, which must be op-
Grated If carrying charges are to be
paid Many have been profitable.
The corporation farm involves little
bat machinery and land. Labor Is tran
silent and hired for the job. The Amer
and as the home for q family Is aban-
doned.
One Crop Is Aim.
Usually the farm corporation Is de-
signed to produce but one crop. Com
binations of machines prepare the land
for planting in one operation. Seeding
Is done by machine and no labor or
machinery is required while the crop IS
growing. At maturity a single opera
ton harvestS and threshes. BY mass
production farm corporations have
claimed to be able to produce wheat at
% cents a bushel, but the largest has
had difficulty paying q dividend when
wheat was so cents a bushel.
THE corporation farm means that
there would be no average farmer, no
farm family, no farm home in the wheat
belt wherever the corporation farmer
operates" Senator Capper has told the
Southwest.
His picture of the results Of mass pro-
duction and machine methods in farm
ing so aroused Kansas, where a dozen
corporation farms are operating and
more are projected, that the system
found almost no defenders among polit-
ical leaders. Both Republicans and
Democrats agreed to legislate against
the new method of farming.

STREET IS PUZZLED
BY WEEKS CHANGES
Rank and File Do Not Know
What to Think After
Hectic Period.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, May 1.-THE kaleido-
scopic changes in this weeks stock
market have left professional Wall
Street bewildered. 1t Is true that there
is a small group Of constitutional bears
who profess the utmost confidence in
their position, but even they were
little dazed at the close on Thursday,
when prices had staged the most ex-
tended recovery since last December.
AS for the rank and file of the trad
ers, they say frankly they do not know
what to think. After the midweek rally
they were almost unanimous in pre-
dieting a continuation of the advance.
The action Of the market on that day
persuaded them that the turn had
come. but after the bear raid in the
last hour Friday they were not so Ger
tain. That it was bear raid admits
of no argument, but the disturbing 1ea-
ture was the success 1t achieved.
Predictions Seen Useless.
For the most part, therefore, opinion
Is that the tape will decide and that
are useless. This makes Tor
trading market more purely professional
in character, If that were possible tnan
that of the past eight weeks. The two
quarters most closely watched for line
on the future are the bond market ana
the action of the railroad shares. Bonos
of any grade below the gilt-edge nave
for a long time now moved sympatnetl.
cally with stocks or Just enough ahead
Of them to foreshadow the course OF
the share market. Similarly, the rail-
road stocks have called the turn on
the market as a whole. II bonds weaken
and II the rails give way again traders
will BE- persuaded that stocks are sale.
AS far as trade news goes and earn
ing reports, the bear party has stu the
better of the argument. The united
States Steel first quarter report, show
ing only cents share for the COM
mon stock, made deep impression,
Reduction of the dividend on Illinois
Central common had been expected and
vet it offset the effect of the moderate
Improvement in car loadings.
Less Outside Liquidation.
Half a dozen times during the week
it happened that unfavorable income
statements were followed by sharp de-
clines in the price Of the stock con-
cerned, showing, the peSS1mists insisted,
that the market had not discounted
even vet the business losses of the first
quarter
Against all this it has been urged
that there has been less outside liquida-
ton in two groups-the rails and the
oils-than at any time during the long
decline. Books of the specialists in
carrier shares, it is said, contain re-
markedly few selling orders. The sup
ply comes from operators for the de-
cline and not investors. The oils, too,
are sold out. There has been no better
ment in the trade position, but there
has been better buying in the Standard
Oil shares-buying for permanent hold
ing and not for scalping point or two.
