STEEL OPERATIONS
FOR -FOUR WEEKS
Improvement Is Tempered by
Uneven Demand, Latest
Review Asserts.

Steel works operations have increased
for the fourth consecutive week, now
being 46-47 per cent, and bookings in
the past week exceeded shipments, says
Steel of Cleveland. This improvement,
however, is tempered by a more uneven
distribution of demand and there are
indications that sentiment has over
run actual progress.
Minus the impetus derived from re-
leases OF material suspended before the
holidays, the steel markets have settled
down to the basis of absolute current
requirements. Most consumers of steel
have yet to see their own products NOV
ing faster, though no less confident this
nears, and thus have had no occasion
to recorder.
As result, market activity is supplied
chiefly by Continued heavy awards of
building steel, the cleanup of track
material requirements of the railroads
and several large domestic pipe con-
tracts. Inevitably the situation is
spotty, and since sentiment is not en-
tered on mill order books, the contrast
between expectation and reality is more
marked.
The slower rate of gain both in pro-
duction and bookings has not disturbed
the underlying belief that the worst is
past, nor has it appreciably affected
prices. Most users having covered prior
10 the ADVANCE Tor this quarter, price is
a minor factor now. Vigorous buying,
however, is always a support for prices
and the abstinence Of buyers sometimes
is harmful.
Structural steel awards this week, at
1882 tons. exceed both the 1888 tons
OF last week and 10000 tons of a year
ago. For 1881 to date structural orders
have totaled 114,74 tons; for 1890, 3d.
267 tons. The most noteworthy letting
was $4,000 tons for an elevated highway
in New York, with 10000 tons for this
project active and 10000 tons still to
come out
New rail business includes 35, 100 tons
Tor the Southern, with the Rock Island
and Illinois Central prospective buyers
OF $4,000 tons, the St. Paul of $4,000
tons, and the Nickel Plate of Is, 900 tons,
Bids are in on New York Central and
Pennsylvania track faStenings which,
with other inquiry, aggregate $4,000
tons.
January shipments of pig iron in most
districts show an increase over Decem-
Der. Some meters who have not COW
cred are buying spot lots in preference
to contracting. Coke is dull even for
heating purposes. The scrap market is
more uncertain, there being more price
declines than advances this week, but

Following last weeks rise, the first in
SIX months, Steel's market composite is
unchanged at $31.73.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January 23.-In all of
the declines in the latter part of last
year General Motors resisted the popu-
lar trend of stocks better than nearly
any other industrial leader. 1t has also
been one of the first to move forward
when sentiment became more bulltsh.
The accumulation of the stock within
the range of 1926 must have been on
an enormous scale. 1t is still II points
under the high of last Spring. A very
thorough analysis of the company's
position indicates that earnings for 1880
will be above So share, with the COM
pany's balance sheet at the end of
December likely to show cash and
securities about equal to the figure Of
5000, 0000 900 at the end of September
This amount was sufficient to cover all
liabilities existing on September 80 two
and one-half times.

BANK LOANS DROP,
RESERVE REPORTS
Cheaper Money and Further
Decline in Wholesale Prices
Also Announced.

Loans and investments of reporting
member banks declined in the four
week period ending January IA. reflect
ing further liquidation of security loans,
as well as a reduction in "all other"
loans and in investments, the Federal
Reserve Board announced today
Changes in the position of Reserve
banks in recent weeks reflected largely
changes in the demand for currency.
In December this demand increased
more than is usual for the season, owing
to the withdrawal of cash by banks and
by the public in districts where there
were important bank failures. In the
two weeks after Christmas the return
flow of currency from circulation was
smaller than the usual seasonal amount
and the result was that money in cir
culation, which during the larger part
OF 1880 had been in considerably small
er volume than in 1929, in January,
1881, was above the level of year ago.
In the. following two weeks the return
flow OF currency was somewhat larger
than usual indicating a return of part
OF the extra currency which had been
called into use In December.
Money Rates Go Lower.
Money rates in the open market con-
tlnued at low levels during December
and declined further in the first half
OF January. The discount rate at the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York was
reduced to 2 per cent en- December "a.
and in the following three weeks the
rate at the Federal Reserve Bank of
Boston was reduced to 2i5 per cent, and
rates at the Federal Reserve Banks of
Cleveland, st. Louis. Chicago. Atlanta
and San Francisco to per cent.
Construction contracts awarded dur
ing December were in about the same
volume as in November. according to
reports Of the r. W. Dodge Corporation
There were slight declines, partly sea-
sonal lE nature, in contracts for resi-
dental and commercial construction
while public works and utility awards
increased somewhat.
In early January, following vear.end
inventory periods, reports indicate in
creased employment in certain indus
tries, particularly automobiles. steel and
railroads. ''A-0

that looked like eyes, lump like a
nose, two other Jumps for ears and
long, narrow hole, just like a
mouth.
What a funny stone facet said
Baby Bunty.
Il wonder if it can talk?" asked
Jingle.
"It would be a funny stone, even
shaped like face, that could talk!' -
chuckled Buster, boy rabbit.
Nov there's an ideal" said Uncle
Wiggily, laughing. IF that stone
could talk l would have an adven-
ture."
Lets listen and see if it says
anything" said Custer, who was
Busters brother. They kept very
quiet, but the stone did not talk
that is just then. And, having
looked at the rocky face a while
longer the bunny boys and girls
scattered through the woods to play
tag.
Uncle Wiggily kept looking at the
stone face. He hoped all around
it and then he saw where it was
hollow in back-there was hole
large enough for him to get inside
and he found himself behind the
stone face, near the long, narrow
slit that was the mouth.
Looking out of this mouth hole,
all of a sudden Uncle Wiggily saw
the Fox sneaking through the
woods.
"Oh. the Fox will get some of my
little bunnies!" thought Mr.. Long
ears. How can / scare him and
make him run away? If I could get
out from behind this stone face in
time I might pinch his tail. But I
can't. Oh, dear!" Then, all at once,
Mr.. Longears thought of making the
stone face talk and say something
to that Fox.
Putting his own mouth close To
the stone mouth of the stone face
behind which he was hidden out OF
sight, the rabbit shouted: Run
away, Mr.. Fox, or I'll bite you'll"
And the Fox, looking at the stone
face, thought it had really talked
and that so surprised and fright
ened him that away he ran, howl
ing:
"Oh, I didn't know stone coulc
talk! This must be magic!"
Then Uncle Wiggily laughed and
when his Dummies came back. safe
and happy, Mr.. Longears talked tc
them through the stone and they
thought it was the jolliest joke they
had ever heard. So if the egg beat
er doesn't try to turn the white dog
black by making him swim in the
ink bottle, I'll tell you next about
Uncle Wiggily's falling leaves. D..

Run away Mr.: Fox.

"Forward-March," And away they
hoped, with Mr.. Longears leading
the procession like captain.
The reason Nurse Jane put down
the names of all the bunny boys and
girls in a book when they went ad-
venturing with Uncle Wiggily was
so she could check up on them when
they came back. 1t was needful to
do this, for once Uncle Wiggily took
thirty bunnies on one of these Sat-
urday afternoon hikes and he
brought back only tWenty-sevenl
Twenty-seven taken from thirty
leaves three, and this meant three
little rabbits had been left behind
in the woods. Uncle Wiggily was
SO forgetful, thinking about an ad-
venture he had with a mud turtle,
that he forgot TO keep count. jim
gle, Jangle and Baby Bunty had
been left in the woods.
But as soon as Nurse Jane dis
covered this she made Uncle Wig
gily go right back to the woods and
she and Mrs. Longears went with
him and they found the three little
lost Dummies fast asleep under the
leaves. So everything was all right
only, after this, I'll put their
names in a book" said Nurse Jane
And SO she did.
1t was lovely day for october
and Uncle Wiggily showed his bun
ny children where nuts grew or
trees and where wild grapes grew
on vines and he found some sweet
grass for them to nibble. Then he
said:
Hop this way, everybody. I have
something strange TO show youl'
When they were all gathered arounc
him, the rabbit gentleman pointed
to a queer rock. 1t was in the shape
Of face. There were two hole
