VIRGINIA SALES TAX
PROPOSAL OPPOSED
Suggestion for Levy on Tobacco
Fails to Gain Committee Mem.
bers' Support.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


RICHMOND. Va, Move r Der THE
Williams of Fairfax County as one of
the suggested methods of increasing the
revenues OF the State. when he ap-
peared with a delegation before the
Legislative Budget Committee, seeking
the Endorsement of the $4,000, 900 APP
preparation for public education, to
provide for a nine-month school term
in all counties, Is not received with
favor by at least two members of that
body, who were quick to express their
opinion.
j. Sinclair Brown said that the result
of such tax would be that the manu-
facturers would most certainly cut even
the low prices they are now paying to
the producers, which would hurt the to-
bacco growers Of Virginia.
Senator w. A. Garrett, who lives in
the tobacco belt, declared that he would
be afraid to go back home If he voted
for such tax.
OF course, it is realized that any seri-
Gus consideration of sales tax on to-
bacco would raise a storm of protest.
though it would yield more revenue
than the combined tax on amusement
tickets, soft drinks, cosmetics and bill
boards, which Mr.. Williams mentioned
had been discussed at a recent meeting
helu under the auspices of the State
Association of School Trustees.
Gov. Pollard said that figures on
amusementS tickets, soft drinks and bill
boards had been compiled and inyesti-
CATION had shown that combined they
would not bring more than 81 ,OO0, 900.
He admitted that a tax on cosmetics
had not entered into his calculations.

JOINT STOCK LAND BANK
AID FROM U. S. is SOUGHT,

The Federal Government should come
to the aid of the joint stock land banks
as we'll as the Federal land banks, it
is contended in a brief for the Joint
Stock Land Bankers Association.
Everett Sanders, former Secretary to
ex-PreSident Coolidge, is the author of
the brief, which contends that any re-
medal legislation should apply equally
to both joint stock and Federal land
banks and their borrowers.
In support of this contention, quota
tons are listed from authorities, over
number of years. backing the asser-
ton that because the bonds of the joint
stocks are termed instrumentalities of
the Government, and because there Is
an avowed public purpose carried out
in the operation of these banks, accord
ing to Mr.. Sanders, 1.-The good faith and
credit of the sovereign requires that it
come to the aid of the joint stock and
Federal land banks, which from their
inception have been nothing but Federal
lnstrumentalities, the main purpose OF
which has been to perform Govern
ment function"

INVESTMENT MARKET
GAINS DURING WEEK
Index of go Bonds Advances 2 IL
Points Above Low
of Year.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, Nov. Tin the past week
the investment market regatned vtrtu-
ally all of the ground it had lost during
the entire month of August. Standard
Statistics index of 60 bonds ended the
week fully 215 points above the low OF
the year registered early in october.
Translated into dollars this means
that bonds listed on the New York Stock
Exchange have appreciated about ST.
750,000,000 from their 1881 low. In
Guiding issues listed elsewhere and I'M
listed bonds, it is estimated there has
been a total appreciation of not less
than $500, 900 in bonds held by
American investors.
Traditionally every recovery is 1nau-
gurated with an improvement in ccm-
modify prices followed by broad adj
vance in bonds. The present climb of
bond prices has not been as rapid, per-
haps, as some past recoveries, but it
has one feature that has been lacking
in all other upturns of the bond market
since the start of the liquidation of
1929.
The advance has been in heavy
volume, with day to day sales from 80
to 40 per cent heavier than year ago,
and almost twice as heavy as those of
the stagnant days of last Summer The
market has gained momentum on the
advance.
The new-capital market is still in the
doldrums. Only 100000 of bonds
were put out in the week, following
a week In which there were no offer
ings. In the same week of 1880, $40,-
$4,000 of new bonds were offered The
outlook for new issues is improving,

which Mr.. Reiman was selected as
chairman and Matthias F. Reese, man
ager of the Baltimore Clearing House,

was decided to allot the various coun-
ties Of the State to four subcommittee,
so that the banks in those counties can
confer directly with representatives of
the credit organization located in their
vicinities. without the necessity of COM
ing to Baltimore.
Under this arrangement the following
out-of-town committee members will
deal' with banks in the counties men,

BILE to do away with the very disheart-
ening spectacle of having a bond paid
off at par. while the market quotation is
around Is cents on the dollar.
AS to the department and municipali-
ties, as well as mortgage institutions,
it might be desirable to subject their
external obligations to careful analy-
sis, with view to determining the cir
cumstances under which loans may
have been contracted, the terms on
which they were made, the manner in
which proceeds were utilized, as well as
the capacity of the various debtors to
take care of their Indebtedness.
On the basis of such study, it should
be possible to effect such adjustments
as may seem desirable and eXpedient.
The recommendation relative to the
suspension of sinking funds should ap-
ply also to the obligations of the depart
ments, municipalities and mortgage
banks.
In order that the above suggestions
may be effective, the request for their
adoption should come from the credi-
tors, or whoever may agree to act on
their behalf, rather than from the gov
eminent of Colombia, or the various
political subdivisions.

WHEAT RISE WILL AID
STOCKS, SAYS McNEEL

Commenting upon this sub-cellar
bargain basement" in which many COM
mon stocks are now selling, r. w. Nc
Neel of Boston points out that promi-
nent agricultural and mail order stocks
will benefit financially, and eventually
marketwise, by the current spectacular
rise In grain prices. Mr.. McNeel writes:
1.-The advance of over 80 per cent in
the price of wheat is most important.
There are between 100000 and L.
100000 wheat growers in the United
States and between 100000 and A.
100000 persons actively engaged in
wheat producing. Many others are af-
fected indirectly. Tending to restore
buying power in enc of our most de-
pressed industries, and above all, tend
ing to restore confidence and hope
among large section of the people,
it is also demonstrating that the price
OF something can go up. It will be
surprising If this is not gradually COM
muntcated to other commodities, and
to the securities markets.

RECOVERY IN STEEL
OPERATIONS IS NOTED
Industry Hopeful of Reversal in
Decline as Pickup in Orders
Occurs.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November moderate
recoveries in steel operations occurred
in the past week, rejecting slight in
creases in orders and specifications
placed and the trade is now hope
full that a reversal of the steady de-
cline in production since last March
may occur this month.
Optimistic statements by leaders in
the industry and recent advances in
wheat, silver and other commodities
have encouraged the industry. Ingot
production advanced slightly for the
second week to about 80 per cent of
capacity, owing to slightly larger buy
ing of rails and miscellaneous lines.
While structural awards remain small
and operations of pipe and tube mills
are light, the outlook is said to be for
increased activity in the automobile
industry. Prices hold unchanged. Bet
ter inquiry has developed for pig iron
at steady prices.
A more cheerful tone was reported
in copper owning to improved export
buying, reports of increasing activity
In some domestic copper and brass
rolling mills and expectations of further
expansion in the coming week. Elec-
trolytic holds steadS at cents for
delivery in the Connecticut Valley, with
custom smelters supplying the demand.
Consumers and dealers were more
active buyers Of tin for delivery in the
next three months following q period
Of restricted purchases and prices ad-
vanced late in the week. Early de-
clineS in lead as result Of increas-
ing ore receipts at smelling plants were
followed by moderately improved de-
mand and the market has become
steady. Resistance of sellers to accept
further concessions resulted in a firmer
tone in zinc and the market recovered
part of its recent losses. late in the
week. Demand, however, is restricted.
Anthony was about steady.

Increase i'm Retail
Sales Is Reported
During Past Week
b. the Associated Press.

b. the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November Retail
sales showed a marked improvement
during the week, according to the week.
ly survey by the Fairchild Publications.
The movement of goods was more ia
vorable than during any week in recent
months.
The improvement in sales was due
to more seesonable weather, an i'm
provement in psychology and gain in
farm purchasing power. Reports re-
ceived indicate substantial gain In sales
in the wheat States. Kansas City in
particular reports the most favorable
volume in several years.
Apparel sales gained during the
week. This referred to both mems and
womens wear. There was a marked
improvement in women's coat sales.
Despite the improvement in whole
sale prices, the trend of retail prices
continued downward. Latest reports
indicate a new low in the present de-
flation. There is generally a lag be-
tween wholesale and retail prices.

prices have shown better stability in the
past five months than at any time IN
the past two years, says the United
Business Service. Since early in June
there have been minor gains and losses
that In total Offset each othc-, SO that
on November l the price level was
practically the same as in the early
Summer.
This price stability is probably the
most encouragi ng feature in the business
world at the present time. Falling
prices are great burden to industry be-
cause OF inventory losses, hesitation on
the part of the BUYERS and sacrifice
sales. With the price decline halted-at

ventory losses will no longer occur,
buying will be more active, and profit
margins will be protected.
