Council Refuses To
o. K. Birth OF Nation

"Birth of a Nation" will not be
shown in Portland. The council
Thursday turned down promoters
who were to give the Portland post
of the American Legion Is per cent
of the proceeds. This is the fourth
time that the council has refused
applications for permits to show this
picture. Each time there have been
protests from Negroes and various
organizations, including the Council
of Churches.
Representation had been made to
the council that Objectionable parts
of the picture had been eliminated
but representatives of the Council of
Churches and the local branch of the
National Association for Advance
ment of Colored People told the
council the picture still is objection
able and might stir up race hatred.
Mayor Baker reiterated his stand
that the picture should not be shown
in Portland. C. f. Ivey represented
the N.A.A.C.P. Mr.. Wilbur MERCER
was instrumental in creating senti-
ment among his "buddies" against
the picture.

WEEKLY BANK CLEARINGs.

Little evidence of expansion is to be
found in the report of bank clearings
for the second week of January. Total
clearings for this week at leading cities
in the United States, as reported to
Dun's Review, of $7,966,365 900 are
24.5 per cent below last years At New
York City, clearings amounted to S.
AIS, 766. 900 and are 24.6 per cent under
those of a year ago, while the aggregate
at center outside of New York of 81
55l ,099, 900 is pa per cent smaller. At
practically every city a substantial loss
appears. The decline in January clear
ings this year is now quite as large as
that for December, although in Janu-
airy Of last year there had been a fall
ing off from the earlier months, as
might have been expected after the
occurrences of the final quarter of
1929. January clearings a year ago
were reduced as compared with those
of November and December, whereas
under normal conditions payments
through the banks in January, which
are measured by clearings, would ex-
coed those of the two months men
toned, by fully 10 to Is per cent, with
the lower totals for January last year.
and decline for the first half of the
month this year, as great as that for
December, continued adverse conditions
are clearly apparent.

CORN SUBSTITUTES
|. BEAT DOWN PRICES
Market Disappoints Traders
Who Have Been Expecting
Higher Values.
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, January 17.-Grain trade
authorities say cheap substitutes for
corn are playing hob with the corn
market. 1t is also asserted that corn
values necessarily suffer from the fact
that this Winter has been the m1ldest
for many years. In any case, the corn
market just now is in striking contrast
with what friends of higher prices for
corn have pictured as likely to result
from the seasons sensational crop
shortage.
Compared with a week back, the
corn market this morning was 1929
cents a bushel lower, with wheat "a off
to II up, oats at "a decline to "a ad-
vance and provisions unchanged to As
cents down.
Some Substitutes.
Among the principal cheap substi-
tutes enumerated as competing severe
ly with corn is Canadian mill feed, in
Guiding offal from Canadian wheat
nilled in bond in the United States.
Despite corn yield curtailment by
drought, visible stocks of corn are a
good deal larger than year ago. This
situation, however, is more or less due
apparently to the circumstance that
corn continues p be about the only
81 GILL 0OA11AA5 az VI dOONC bIlC COSG Vi
production. Close observers predict the
real test of the market is to come
within the next six weeks, and that
the average farmers attitude in regard
to disposing of his corn during the
period intervening will determine, to a
large extent, the trend of prices.
Judged by stock-yards complaints
that very lightweight hogs are scarce,
rural feeding of corn appears to be on
a liberal scale. Official reports, too,
suggesting that there is a larger hog
crop than last year are construed in
various quarters as an Offset for reduc-
ton Of the number of cattle on feed
although the cut in corn belt cattle
herds is 10 per cent; meanwhile, If his
tory repeats itself, the 1881 corn crop
may turn out 1000 600, 900 bushels in
excess of the 1880 harvest, as exactly
such happening followed abnormal
meager crops in 1894 and 1901.
Wheat traders are sharply watching
developments regarding crop scare pos
sibilities about domestic Winter wheat
especially lack of subsoil moisture
Latest reports indicate generally sufi-
Gent surface moisture to carry the crop
without damage. The Texas Panhandle
and parts of Oklahoma have received
the most moisture so far, compared to
normal. Investment buying of cats ap-
pears on price setbacks.
Provisions mirror the course of the
hog market.

|H|GH-GRADE BOND
LIST. HOLDS FIRM
Remainder of Market Dis

cial pisnatch to The star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January Thigh
grade bonds were firm today, but the
rest of the list had an irregular tone.
United States Governments, which on
Friday all worked to new high levels
for this year and last, we're subject
to some selling that carried them down
2-32 to 4-32 from their highs. These
losses were partially recovered in the
last half hour. Money rates were I'M
changed. Volume was small.
At the opening there was good
demand for seasoned investment de-
scriptions such as Baltimore & Ohio
first As, Canadian Pacific As, Pennsyl-
vania 415s, Southern Pacific AIS,
American Telephone 51ks, Consolidated
Gas 512s, Duquesne Light AIS. Utah
Power & Light SIS, Western Union SIS
of 1851 and 1860, Inland Steel AIS
and Youngstown Sheet and Tube SIS.
Junior railroad bonds were quiet and
irregular. Chicago Great Western As
gained point and there were smaller
advances in Erie SIS, Florida East Coast
SIS, Missouri As and SIPS and
Eastern Illinois SIS dropped nearly a
point and both Southern Railway Is
and Western Maryland As had fraction
al dips.
Industrials were more active, espe-
cially Armour of Delaware 51as, which
gained nearly 3 points at one time,
and Rich1eld Oil of California IS,
which advanced over points to a level
more than IA points above the price
quoted following the receivership an
nouncement earlier in the week. Both
these spurtS were shaded in late trad
ing. McKesson & Robbins. SIPS rose
IL points. Convertibles moved up
ward with stocks.
Foreign dollar bonds were strong,
notably the German group. German
Government 515s were over a point bet
ter and in heavy demand. Japanese,
French, Belgian and Italian issues were
firm. South Americans were strong,
especially Colombia 6s.

Public Utilities

CThis is the twenty-third article of .
series on the subject Of public utilities,
holding companies, giving their history,
held Of operations and an ANALYSIS 81 the
SaSs bonds As well IA as stocEs, but win
present the facts without any attempt to
recommend purchase or sale Of spectnc
securitieS.)
The second largest producer of cleo
tricity In Canada, Shawinigan Water d
Power Co., has enjoyed steady ex-
pansion in recent years commensurate
with industrial growth in territory 1t
serves in the Province of Quebec. In
the past 10 years the gross operating
revenue has been multiplied more than
three times. In 1920 it was $3,943, 1853,
and in 1929 it was $13,475,863, while
during the same period income available
for dividends rose from 81 ,484, 043 to
$5,10T,980. Even in this present year OF
business depression Shawinigan Water
g. Power has made favorable showing
Results for the full year are not avail
able at this writing, but it has been on
cially stated that earnings will cover
all charges and dividends at present rate
with a substantial surplus.
1t is because OF the consistent growth
that the market appraises the corpora
tons securities so highly. All of the
bonds are admittedly high-grade In
vestments. In recent markets, they have
sold to yield only trifle over per cent
and in any normal time e return
would be less. There is only one class
of stock which is of no par value, out
standing to the amount of 2,178,25O
shares. The current dividend on this
stock is $3.50 annually. Earnings in
the year 1929 we're $2.34 per share, less
than the present disbursement, but dur
ing the first part of 1880 net was said
to have gained 10 per cent and as stated
above estimates are that the dividend
will be covered with something to spare
for the calendar year.
The market capitalizes these earnings
generously. Even at the low of the
bear movement the stock sold roughly
for 20 times earnings per share and at
the height of the imitation of 1929 the
price was nearer so times earnings per
share. This is the price buyers are
willing to pay for an opportunity to
share in the industrial future of Eastern
Canada. Obviously whether this is a
sound investment or not depends almost
as much upon general conditions in that
region as it does upon the earning power
and financial strength of the corpora
ton ITSELF

SHORT COVERING ACTS
AS SPUR TO QUOTATIONS

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January 1.-THE re-
bound in the stock market late Friday
indicated that professional bears had
been unable to bring out any long stock
after several days of pressure on the
list and were covering their contracts
at the end of the week. The rally was
a general surprise. 1t had the effect
of changing the tone of market COM
ment, which today quite generally
seemed to anticipate further improve
ment.
The fact that stocks have had q 10
point average decline gave the market
a stronger technical position. 1t was
also recognized that individual issues
had stood up we'll against news un-
favorable to them and to the groups
of which they are part.

Business Notes

| BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January ia sales
total of $1.OOO,0 OQ was reported by the
New York Fur Auction Co. yesterday at
the conclusion of its four-day January
sale of silver fox skins. Over 30 per
cent of the sales represented goods
which actually changed hands, officials
said. A high price Of $500 was estab-
lished at the auction, as compared with
$480 for the corresponding sale last
year.
The Shirtings Fabrics Association has
approved proposal for design regis
tration bureau. Ofdcials said COM
mittee has been appointed to investigate
the design piracy situation within the
industry and to report on the best
method of establishing such a bureau
in the near future.
While the gain has not been particu-
larry heavy some improvement in orders
has followed the recent reduction In
rayon prices, the trade reports the
hosiery trade was said to be making
more liberal commitments than was the
case, while underwear manufacturers
were credited with placing a larger
amount of business to get their new
Spring lines out to customers.
Business in the country's electrical
equipment markets is expanding
markedly under the impetus of ac-
tolerated buying activity on the part
of railroads, central stations and
power companies whose entrance into
the market comedies with the COM
nencement of enlarged production In
many lines of industry, Electrical World
reports.
Automobile tire prices quoted in the
1881 Spring and Summer catalogue of
Sears, Roebuck & Co. are approx
mately the same as those in the COM
pany's MidWinter flyer" catalogue,
which represented a weighted average
decrease of close to IL per cent from
those previously prevailing.
After lull of several weeks follow
ing a period of fairly active buying,
purchases of straw hats have begun
to increase against, the trade reports
Despite the fact that manufacturers are
telling their clients that the shutting
off of imports through the new tariff
will place a greater burden on the
domestic makers and that there is a
possibility of a shortage if buying is
delayed too long. Retailers have not
been anxious to enter the market.

Brokers' Comment

NEW YORK, January 17.-Commis-
sion house letters to clients TODAY
emphasized the professional character
OF the current stock market. Several
pointed to the probability of another
technical rally. Comments:
Winthrop, Mitchell & Co.-Selling
pressure has dried up to a goodly ex-
tent, however, so that, while further
drift lower Is indicated by the main
price trend, no drastic breaks are
looked for. 1t seems apparent that
banking powers are reconciled to the
correction running its course, and while
they hold to such attitude there can be
none OF the aggressive bull leadership
necessary for any advance of conse-
quence.
Benjamin, Hill & Cove feel the
rally should go somewhat further, as
technically the sentiment is too bearish.
Jackson Bros, Boesel & Cove
feel that current pressure on the mar
ket Is largely professional and does not
reflect further important liquidation.
Pask & Walbridge: Apparently one
of two things Is going to happen. Either
the stock market is in for a somewhat
further decline within the next few
weeks or activity will practically dry
up around approximately present levels.
Hamershlag, Borg & Cot is our
opinion that further defiation in market
leaders is a condition precedent to
general advance.
Smith, Graham & Rockwell-Minor
swings are all that seem to be promised,
and with the industrial outlook not
bright, selling should not be neglected
when recoveries come along.
Redmand & Co.-Many issues show
indications of being oversold, at least
temporarily, as evidenced by the recent
drying up of selling so that a further
recovery would not be surprising par
ticularly if the market was favored with
a piece of good news. Any rally at this
stage, however, must be regarded as
technical in character and we would not
be inclined to follow it too far. Current
business news does not yet justify
broad and sustained advance in securi-
ties prices.
e. F. Hutton g. Cove feel that
conditions still require caution. particu-
larry If the gain should extend few
points, in which case the added techni-
cal strength of Thursday would probably
be completely Cancelled out.
