BY ELMER G. WALLER

NEW YORK, March 18.-Atten-
ton of the financial community was
directed at the railroad stocks to-
day, that group continuing to de-
cline, nearly all making new lows on
the movement; a few new lows for
the year and one, st. Louis-San
Francisco, new low since 1924.
Losses in the rails ranged TO AZ
points in the case of Union Pacific
which sold down to 1873. Others
we're off fractions to nearly 3 points
Atlantic Coast Line was at 1881
off 2, and a new low for the year;
Delaware, LackaWanna 81 Western
7eH, off "a Erie 30, off and equal
10 its low for the year; Missouri
Kansas-Texas 1874, off q and new
1891 low; New York Central 1887
off ~ and a new low for the year
Pennsylvania SIS, off q; Reading
72i5, off 2i5, and Southern Railway
50ss, off x.
List Is Uneven
Weakness in the rails was com
municated to other sections of the
list where trading was quiet and
prices irregular. Utilities lost their
snap; oils held barely steady; Fox
was an exception in the amuse-
plents, rising more than point in
anticipation of a refunding issue and
election to the board of Albert H.
Wiggin, head Of Chase National
bank.
United States Steel met some sup
port and ran up to 1865, following
favorable reports from the steel in
dustry, where automobile and con-
struction demand was causing a rise
in pace of output. General Electric
rose fractionally on it's report show
ing the annual dividend earned by a
30-cent margin in 1880, which ex-
cept for 1929 was the best year in
the company'S history.
Fear for Dividends
Westinghouse Electric was de-
pressed on further talk of reduction
of the dividend. Lorillard was
firm spot in the tobacco group, ris-
ing to new high for the year at
1914, up y. Standard Brands was
firm in the foods.
Weakness in the railroad shares
was caused by uneaSiness over the
future of the dividends in several
instances. The Nickel Plate divi-
dend of So annually was believed in
line for a sharp reduction. The
stock equaled its low of 70 made
In 1880 for the first time since
1924. Car loadings were down $780,
1872 cars for the week of March Z
compared with the previous week
and 224OO5 cars under the 1929
week.
