HEARINGS ON

Hearing on the application of
the Delaware & Hudson Rail
road to abandon a part of it's
Honesdale branch, before the
Pennsylvania Public Service Com
mission at Harrisburg, has been
postponed from February 4 to
February 18, the Interstate Com
merce Commission announced to-
day.
The Interstate Commerce Com
mission today authorized the
Washington Run R lroa d to
abandon its line extending from
Star Junction to Layton, Pa, a
distance of four miles.
The commission stipulated that
within 80 days the railroad sell
it's properties to the Perry Manu-
featuring Company, for continued
operation, at price equal to the
fair net salvage value of the
property.

ROADS BATTLE
FOR CONTROL

PROVIDENCE, R. l., Feb. 4
U.N.SO.-A challenge hurled by
the Van Sweringen railroad in.
tereSts at the Pennsylvania Rail
road was on record today in the
battle between the four great
Eastern railroad combines for
control of New England railroads.
William H. Boyd, personal coun-
sci of o. P. and M. j. van Swerin-
gen, addressing a gathering of
500 persons at the Providence
Chamber of Commerce dinner, de-
clared the Chesapeake and Ohio
Nickel Plate road would like to
acquire the Maine Central and
the Bangor and ArooStook roads,
as we'll as the Boston and Maine
system. He brought out that by
this plan, New England would be
given uninterrupted connections
from the Gulf of Mexico to
Canada, and from the Atlantic to
the Pacific.
At the same time, Boyd hurled
the charge that the Pennsylvania
Railroad has acquired a domi-
mating influence in the Boston
and Maine and the New York,
New Haven and Hartford rail
roads. He claimed that such an
influence assumed all the benefits
but none of the obligations Of
outright ownership, and that the
people of New England should
not permit their principal rail-
roads to be captured by a single
system,

Disappointing Report on Car

Commodity Issues Steady
BY w. S. COUSINS

NEW YORK, Feb. 4 GNS0.
Strength in the stock market in
early trading today was confined
mostly to the pool Specialties and
utilities. Speculative interest in
the market showed no sign OF an
increase and city-wide Interrupt
ton of the ticker service cut
down the volume of outside par
ticipation in the dull market.
The additional rise of l per
cent in steel production was off
set by the disappointing car load
ings statements and the falling
off in December net income of
the roads now reporting to the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
Standard Oil of Nebraska joined
the list of big oil units reducing
the rate of cash dividend on its
common stock.
Last year, according to the
president of this company, the
total earnings of 1925 a share
we're paid to stockholders as
dividends, and the current rate
has been reduced to 2 per cent.

STEEL GAIN

PITTSBURGH, Feb. 4 QN.SO.
A gain in pig iron production, the
first since April, 1880, and an
increase in the number of blast
furnaces in operation will be
noted tomorrow by the Iron Age
in it's weekly summary OF the
iron and steel trade.
Pig iron output for January
was 1,714,266 tons, or 55,299 tons
a day, compared with 1865, $50
tons, or 53,732 tons daily, in De-
cember. Merchant pig iron out
put, however, suffered a further
sharp decline, dropping to 9,4l6
tons daily in January from an
average of 1890 tons in the pre-
vious month.
Steel Demand Lessons
Steel demand has lost momen-
tum and is increasingly uneven,
with some market centers report
ing that improvement has been
definitely arrested. Specifications
in the aggregate continue to show
Slight expansion, with tin plate,
rails. track accessories and line
pipe giving production the best
support.
Raw steel output is at least hold
ing it's own, with ingot production
for the country at large now
averaging fully 48 per cent, com
pared with Al per cent a week
ago.

Despite the general bearishneSs
evidenced in many quarters OF
the financial district, It has been
an undisputable fact that selling
movements in the industrlah
have flatened out into duilness on
several occasions at points above
the December II lows, indicating
resistance to further declines ID
greater than at any time during
the last half of 1890. Another de-
Velopment of late is the tendency
for the market to turn more So
lective, as witness the sharp adj
Vances in such SpeCialties as Au
burns, Worthington Pump. Vulcan

hon, while the general list haA
been backing and filling aimlessly.
Chart Students Puzzled
Even chart students have been
considerably nonplussed by the in.
ability of the market to turn de
clsively in either direction, and
consequently traders have been
advised to maintain a Gidelines
position until a trend either up
ward or downward is sufficiently
well defined to justify trading
commitments without undue risk
Reports of Value
Sources who have been con.
sistently maintaining the market
is in a long pull accumulation
zone point out it is inevitable
that earnings and other financial
statistics should be unimpreSsive
in a period of accumulation.
These reports are declared to be
of value at this time mainly for
comparative purposes between in
dividual companies.
Autos Rate Highest
Efficiency of industrial com.
panies as measured by the amount
they had been able to earn on
their tangible net worth over the
priod 1927-1929, is the highest
among automobile and truck
manufacturing corporations, ac-
cording to a survey made by Q
leading industrial agency. Auto
mobile companies had a percent
age of 1869, while oil produc.
ing and refining companies were
at 55.85 per cent Of normal.
Steel companies rated 47.91 per
cent: office equipment companies
138.O8; automobile parts and ac-
CeSSory companies 1908, and
food product companies 1910
per cent.
Gas Consumption Gains
Preliminary statistics of oil
operations during 1880 indicate
that the domestic consumption OF
gasoline increased by So per cent
over that in the previous year.
The increase, however, was at re-
duced rate, comparing with gain
of 1872 per cent in 1929 over 1928
A similar record is shown in gaso'
line exports, which increased SO
per cent over those in 1929 in
comparison with a gain of !3.0
per cent the preceding year.
Crude oil production in the United
States cleraly reflected the results
of the many proration orders put
into effect during the year. With

The stock market edge

The stock market edged up
a trifle more in Tuesdays
listlesS session, duplicating
January's record of two sue
cesSive days of advancing
prices. This is not as i'm
. preSsive as it sounds, since
the total net advance since
the opening of the week
amounted to IL points, as
measured by Standard Sta
tisticS' index of 80 composite
stocks. However, it does con-
vey somewhat greater i'm
portance to the course of
the market in today's ses-
sion, since continued firm
ness would establish a new
precedent on the upside, and
might easily be the forerun-
ner of a more substantial

FRANCE LEADS
IN STEPS FOR
TARIFF ACCORD
European Nations Strive to
Reach Agreement on
Customs.
BY RICHARD d. NPNuLLAN
United Press stan Correspondent

PARIS, Nov. 4.-The government
concentrated on series of CONNER
cial negotiations which will affect
the entire customs map of Europe
and which are designed to stimulate
international business throughout
the continent.
French business will be protected
in connection with the decline of
the British pound and the plans of
the British government for tariff
measures. it was said.
First step in the customs negoti-
ations was the signing Of an &C
cord with Spain. This will be ex-
tended if proposed negotiations to
include a trade agreement on
Moroccan business succeed.
Meanwhile, France has been con-
Quoting talks with Italy, Great
Britain. Germany, Latvia, Finland
and Esthonia, while negotiations
with representatives of Czecho-
SIovakia and Rumania will be
opened this week
All of the negotiations are for
the purpose of improving trade re-
lations by overcoming the present
handicaps imposed by tariff walls
around virtually every European
nation.
The Italian delegates who are in
Paris now to discuss rectification of
the recent Italian tariff have asked
for favored treatment for various
Italian products imported to France,
chiefly wines. It was pointed out
that there probably would be some
difficulty in completing such an
agreement because France granted
concessions of that character in her
agreement with Spain.
