TURNSEENNEAR
BY RAIL HEAD

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-An op,
timiStic note as to the future
course of business was sounded
by George P. Bagby, president
Western Maryland Railway, in
his address before the annual
dinner of the Traffic Club of
New York.
He held that there were un-
doubtedly certain definite signs
that the bottom of the depression
had been reached, 80 that bust
ness now has but one way to go.
The practical problem, he
added. is not so much when the
improvement will come, as what
can we do to speed it up.
More than 1000 important ship
pers, including the executive Of
ficerS of all of the major Eastern
railroads were in attendance at
the meeting.
Mr.. Bagby placed a high value
upon the work of the traffic de-
partments of the various indus
tries. On the average, he stated,
induStry'S cost dollar is made up
of Cd the cost Of production, (2)
the cost of sales, and 90 the cost
of transportation or getting the
goods to market.

COUNTRY BANKS
To AIR NEEDS
At PARLEY
Management Conference Here
Tomorrow to Make Main
Theme on Rural Problems


Sessions of the second annual
bank management conference of
the Central Atlantic States get
underway at the Willard Hotel at
a. m. tomorrow.
Representatives of financial in
Stitutions of New York, New Jer-
sey, Pennsylvania. Delaware,
Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia
and the District of Columbia are
assembling today. Some bankers
from nearby points, who will take
part in the discussions. probably
will commute to and from their
homes daily.
Aid for Country Banks
Robert V. Fleming, president Of
the Riggs National Bank, at the
request of Lanier P. McLachlen,

lumbia Bankers Association, host
to the visitors, will act as chair
man of the conference.
The program announced by
George o. VaSS, assistant secre-
tary of the bank management con-
ference, will include technical
talks of interest primarily to bank

whole is directed principally to
management problems of "cOun-
try banks" as distinguished from
institutions located in metro
pOlitan areas.
Three sessions are scheduled to-
morrow and one for Friday morn
ing. The two day plan makes no
provision for social activities, but
relaxation will be provided by the
Washington Chapter of the Ameri-
can Institute of Banking, which
will stage its annual mid-wlnter
banquet and ball at the Willard
Hotel Saturday night.
800 to Attend Banquet

ecutives will remain over for this
and reservations have been excep-
tionally heavy. Plans are being
made for the entertainment Of
800 members and guests.

the Currency, will make the first
address at the opening session

Farm Income for 1880 Cut
20 Per Cent From 1929
Fractions represent SENDS
f0IJ mbODS 1DI I-S2

Agricultural income for 1880
approximated $4,000, 100000, a
decrease of 2O.S per cent from
that of 1929, says the Standard
Statistics Company, of New York,
in a current survey of the eco
nomic status of farm products.
Based on prices recently pre-
vailing and assuming aggregate
yields similar to those of 1890,
income in the current year would
be reduced to about SO, 800, 200, 900.
Standard Statistics comment on
prospects for leading farm prod,
ucts in this section follows:
Wheat-DeSpite obvious price
deflation and anxiety regarding
possible further drought damage,
our markets will continue, in gen,
eral. to be governed by strictly
domestic demand. Sustained
higher prices are improbable.
& Corn Trend Lower
Corn Probably no increase in
supply with downward trend in
quotations. Momentary strength
prior to new crop is a possibility
Oats-Prices fairly we'll de-
flated, but no basis for sustained
recovery in values.
Cotton-While reports of acre
age curtailment may induce tenn.
porary rallies. world conditions
do not suggest near term sus
tanned recovery.
Wool-Despite obvious della
ton. fundamentally adverse sta
tistical position is an obstacle to
any early material recovery.

HEAT RESEARCH
ANFORD.C.

Convinced that Washington
has made more rapid strides
toward recovery from the recent
depression than any other Of the
first 20 cities of the country, the
Oil Heating Institute of America
has selected the National Capt.
tai as the one in which its ex-
tenSive program Of research and
education will be started.
This statement was made yes
terday by w. T. Johnson, direc-
tor of the institute, on arrival
here.
w. P. Grove, chairman of the
oil heating division Of the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers Asso-
citation, has assured the institute
of cooperation.
A series of meetings to con-
slider the Standardization of man
ufacturing and merchandising of
oitheating appliances will be held
IN the next three months.
According to Mr.. Grove about
5000 houses in Washington have
been equipped with officiating
plants in the last few years.

CAUTION URGED
IN BUYING At
PRESENT
Another Reaction in Stocks
Nears, Says Haney, Before
Business Settles to Climb
BY LEWIS HANEY
Director New York University Bureau
of Business Research and Former
Economist Of Federal Trade
COmmlHsiOn

Whether one is bullish or bear.
iSh, or in or out Of the market
it should be admitted that at
least a little technical reaction
will be required very soon.
Even the bull leaders recognize
that. 1 make this point at the
start to urge against being
tempted into the market at this
time.
Time To Keep Heads
Maybe you wish you had
bought something in December
That is no reason to buy now
Maybe you want to get into the
market again. This is no reason
to enter now.
II you must speculate and get
into this inflationary whirl In
the stock market, at least wait
for the next minor reaction
Even the brokers are expecting
one this week.
They say the rise for the past
three weeks is the greatest since
August, 1929. Well, do you re.
member what happened at about
those times?
Natural Rebound
This rally in stocks is clearly
the usual rebound at the end Of
the main decline in a bear mar.
ket. The big decline in 1920
ended in December. Then stocks
rallied till May 1921, merely re.
acting in March, 1921. Some,
thing like that generally occurs.
Sometimes the final decline
after such rally hits a new bot,
tom Gas in August, 1920 and
sometimes it does not. But there
always is such a decline, and it
is the best time to buy for in.
VeStment.
AS in similar cases the current
rise is based on two conditions:
U-The accumulation of
idle funds in New York avail
able at abnOrmaIly low rates.
t2)-The Overselling of the
market on the last great break.
Bull Pools Busy
The first condition urges pools
and bull operators to get to work,
and furnishes them with ample
funds Cheaply. 1t tends to cause
secondary wave of initiation in
the stock market.
The second condition gives the
pools and bull operators a strong
leverage. Many stocks had be,
come thoroughly liquidated and
unduly depressed. A large short
interest had accumulated.
So the easy money cat New
York; is put to work and the
shorts are driven to cover, The
rebound is sharp. But note that
is entirely independent of bust
ness conditions. How far it car
ries and how severe the follow
ing reaction is, depends on the
progress in business that is made
meanwhile.

HARVESTER CO.
EARNINGS
General Depression Also Has
Part in Reducing Profits
to rs Per Cent on Capital

CHICAGO, Feb. 25.-Interna
tional Harvester's annual report
for 1880, indicates a considerably
reduced volume Of business anc
earnings. Explaining this shrink
age, the report says:
while favorable trade cOndi.
tiOnS continued in our industry
during the early part of 1880,
the effects of the worldwide
business depression were later
reflected in the cOmpany'S
business both in the United
States and foreign countries.
Farming conditions in the
United States were especially
affected during the summer
and fall by severe and ex-
tensive drought"
Earns rs Per Cent Net
Net profit for the year was
$25, ,703 900, or rs per cent on the
capital invested in the business
The ratio of current assets tc
current liabilities at the end oi
the year was eight to one.
Due to the generally adverse
conditions of business throughout
the world, and particularly ir
agriculture, there was a falling
off in collections and a slight
increase in the amount of re-
ceivables.
Capital expenditures were linn
tied to pressing improvements
and to projects begun in 1929.
Price reductions were effected
in numerous lines, including three
types of tractors. The report con
tinueS:
American agriculture was
called upon to face almost un-
precedented conditions during
the past year. Farm prices for
agricultural products were Sc
verely reduced, causing a situa-
tiOn that has called for great
courage and fOrtitude on the
part OF the American farmer.
Faith in Agriculture
"The conditions of the coun-
try banks, numbers of which
were obliged to close, seriously
aggravated this situation.
This company has complete
faith in the future of American
agriculture and the men who
follow 1t as their life work, and
has every confidence that the
American farmer will meet the
serious problems confronting
him.
The Washington times., 1931-02-25

Hay-Prices have been unusu-
ally well maintained, and values
should continue to display more
strength than weakness over the
near future.
Tobacco-Some further weak
ening in certain divisions of the
price structure may well be wit
messed over the medium term;
however, no further major decline
is in prospect.
.ButterAWith no definite indi-
cation that production will be ma
terially lowered, we see little
chance for an early recovery in
prices.
Better Fall Egg Prices
Eggs-While, in view of current
large holdings and the approach
of the spring season, no immedi-
ate improvement in quotations is
in prospect, the effects of curtail-
ment this year should be reflected
in lower receipts by fall, with a
moderate strengthening in prices
a that time.
Poultry-While the tendency
will very likely be to raise a
smaller number of chickens this
summer, We do not believe that
this will become a price-determin-
ing factor in the next few months
and we look for continued low
prices.
Potatoes-It is the intention of
growers, according to reports, to
expand production for 1881. In
view of this prospect, it is un-
likely that prices will undergo
early improvement.
