Evidence that foreign governments
and producers are slow to take Advan-
tage of the new American tariff law
provision permitting them to petition
the Tariff Commission for rate relief Is
seen by commission officials.
Manufacturers of only four nations
have applied for duty cuts on a dozen
commodities since the new law became
operative 10 months ago.
One Of the IL investigations ordered
under the flexible clause as q result of
foreign complaints has been completes,
and a reduction in duty proclaimed by
President Hoover in the edible gelatin
tariff.
Other countries from which reduction
petitions have come are Argentina,
Switzerland and France. Commodities
involved are f1axseed, leather gloves,
window glass, rayon yarns and filaments,
ferro-silicon aluminium, ferro-aluminu II
silicon, alsimin, sleeps milk cheese,
dried or fresh mushrooms, drained and
candied cherries, candied fruit and silk

Harmony is the watchword OF the re-
organized bipartisan Tariff Commission,
which took Office last September. Chair
man Fletcher sees the best proof of this
in the unanimous approval by the three
Republican and three Democratic men,
bers of the 16 rate reports thus far sent
to President Hoover.

CHICAGO, May 19.-There is a gang

has been more than $4,000, 900, United

johnson said last night. Presumably he
was referring to the syndicate Of AL

though no mention Of Capone's name
was made.
The Federal prosecutor spoke before
the Rogers Park Mems Club, asserting
that the gangs income. as learned by
Government auditors, was $1,717,552 in
1925, $3.50, 1872 in 1926, S1,787,436 in
1927 and $1,641 ,979 in 1923.
Johnson said the gangs apparent
hard times In 1926 were due to the
efforts Of Mayor Dever to curb lawless-
ness
The prediction has been made by
Federal authorities that Capone will be
indicted for tax fraud. He Is already

PRODUCTIVE FINANCING
NOW AT HIGH LEVEL

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, April 21.-Both the
quality and the productivity" OF new
security flotations in March continued
at the high level set earlier in the quar-
ter. according to an analysis issued to-
dav nv Moody's Investors Service. The
survey states that for the first three
months Of the year productive issues
aggregated $S43, 0Oo, 600. or 77.6 per cent
OF ALI new offerings, exclusive OF refund
ing. For March alone the productive
total was $444, 600, 900. or the highest In
any month since 1920, with but three
exceptions.
THE five-month moving average OF
productive offerings is still well below
that reached year ago." Moody's aooS,
but 1t has increased for three success
sive months. The record volume OF new
productive issues during the first quar-
ter of 1880 was due to the Improvement
in the bond market and also partly to
the efforts to maintain construction
projects as an Offset to business depreS-
sion.
'Dur!ng the first three months of
1881 800 per cent of the volume OF all
corporate issues were rated A or bet
ter. as compared with SIT per cent OF
the total in 1880 and only 1912 per cent
in 1929. thus indicating concluSively the
higher quality of the recent flotations."
The amount of productive issues was
determined by Moodys by selecting from
the total of domestic fiotationS Of new
capital Cless refunding) only those is
sues which were obviously destined
solely for capital expansion and inn
provement. Issues of indefinite purpose,
or those hoated for working capital or

Business Notes
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK, April 21-With wealth
er conditions highly favorable to retail
turnover, an unusually active demand
for coats featured the business placed
in the New York wholesale markets last
week. The orders, reaching a market
almost bare of stocks, were chiefly for
untrimmed coats in skipper blue and
black, with white styles coming to the
fore. The week also was marked by a
heavy increase in the purchasing of
Summer apparel, particularly spectator
and sports wear.
The flrmer prices put on raisins in
the offering TO commercial packers last
week Is seen as an evidence of conf
dence that the future of this item is
favorable. The pool does not see any
difficulty in moving out its estimated
$4,000 tons of Thompsons before the
new crop, and since present indications
are for considerably reduced crop in
the coming season, the outlook is for a
steady trend, trade reports say.
Many retail and jobbing buyers are
understood to have deferred covering
on their 1881 flannel requirements,
feeling content for the time being to
purchase the one or two cases at time
that they may need Immediately. 1t Is
the contention Of several that they have
found no difficulty In getting whatever
fancies they require Of new season
styles.
Orders for current and Summer de-
livery featured most of the business
placed yesterday at the opening of the
Spring Toy Fair in New York While
final prices and complete lines for the
year are being shown, large department
store and syndicate buyers are showing
no haste in covering their Christmas
holiday requirements, exhibitors re-
ported.
Advances Of 10 per cent each were
shown by beaver, Japanese marten and
fisher at the opening of the Spring sale
of the New York Auction Co. Beaver
brought as high as SIS, marten So and
fisher $50. Bidding for Northern musk
rat was fairly active, the skins bringing
a top price of SITS, or about open mar
ket levels and per cent down from the
February sale.
With the leading branded lines of
wide sheetings and sheets being under
sold from 10 to is per cent on the
higher-priced numbers by Southern
makers. some readjustment on goods
, for June delivery and later probably
will have to be made, it was indicated
in the market.
