NEW YORK. October 17.-Holders
of Brazilian bonds as well as those in
terested in American Brazilian COM
mercial relations. should derive mate
rial consolation from statement made
by DR.. Assis Chatesubriand, editor in
chief of o formal and principal owner
of Diaries Associates. chain OF news
papers comprising the principal and
most influential dailies in Brazil.
In view of the enormous amount OF
American capital placed in the repub-
lie and the normally large commerce
carried on between the two nations, the
presentation of DR.. Chateaubriand's
plan would seem warranted.
Has Balanced Budget.
There is in Brazil current of pub
lie opinion inclined to favor suspension
of interest and amortization service on
the foreign debt The example Of
Chile finds on this side of the Andes
some who are disposed to follow 1t, al
though this would be a measure OF
despair, and Brazil is not in hopeless
condition. Quite to the contrary; al
though we have had bit of hard luck
lately, We are emerging from our tight

land budgets for deficit of f37,000,000
and the United States for very much
larger deficit. but Brazil has balanced
budget and a government which risks
unpopularity in order to go through
with program of stern economy. We
have grave difficulties to overcome. but
they are not to be compared with those
confronting some other nations more
severely punished than is Brazil by the
consequences of the world crisis.

OUTLOOK IN STEEL
INDUSTRY IMPROVES
Prices Remain Unchanged for
Week-Production Is About
20 Per Cent of Capacity.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, October 17.-Although
no material change occurred in the
steel situation during the past week
more cheerful tone was apparent, with
the trade hopeful that greater conf
dence resulting from the formation OF
the National Credit Corporation might
check the seasonal decline in production
at the year-end moderately increased
demand from the automobile trade, rail-
roads and miscellaneous lines developed,
but steel ingot production remained I'M
changed at about 20 per cent of ca
paclty. While structural awards were
smaller, some finishing plants were re-
ported to be increasing operations.
Prices were unchanged. Pig iron re-
mains quiet and steady.
Domestic buyers of copper became
more cautious when the statistics for
September revealed a further sharp in
crease in refined stocks, owing to fairly
steady production and decreased ship
mentS. The disposition to await the
conference of producers next week, when
it is said production policies will be dis
cuSsed, also checked buying. Custom
smelters continue to supply metal at Z
cents for electrolytic in the Connecticut
Valley, but inquiry is largely confined to
1882 positions. A fair volume of foreign
orders is reported daily.
The tin market remained dull, with
buyers holding off, reactions occurring
at the close Of the week in sympathy
with declines in London. Lead remains
quiet and steady, with demand limited
chiefly to carload lots for immediate
shipment. Stocks Of refined lead at the
end of September show slight reduc-
ton from a readjusted end-August
figure, but are still said to be larger
than immediate consuming needs.
Zinc eased further under pressure by
smelters. who are seeking business. 5nti-
monv held about steady with inquiries
limited to a few carload lots. No firm
offerings are reported from China.

PREFERRED STOCKS.

NEW YORK, October II Especially -
Markets in preferred stocks are still af-
fected by foreign liquidation, as well as
by selling out of loans Of bank CUSTOM
ers and from bank portfolios. While
some of the public utility senior issues
that broke most sharply last month
have rallied to 10 points, others have
been reactionary. Scattered through the
general list are industrial preferred
stocks now at the lowest prices of the
year. A prominent Stock Exchange
house has just issued list of about
20 preferred stocks of the highest char
acter on which the yields ranged about
per cent to 811a per cent. More than
half of them are non-callable. Twelve

Just done promptly with respect to the
interest and sinking fund on the per
cent Dawes loan.
There we're some slight evidences OF
business improvement this week, sucn
as were to be found in car loadings In
the iron and steel trade and in the
production of electric power. The END
of September saw the index OF business
at the lowest level since the war, one
third below that of the same period
in 1929, when the beginning of liquida-
ton in securities first influenced con-
traction in trade Before business can
exhibit sustained Improvement there
must be a clearing up of the bank
situation ans, after this. a sterilization
of bond and stock markets. These de-
velopments, while slow to start, are on
the way and should bring about a con-
siderable improvement in septiment
in the closing months Of this year.

A trade in Alaska Juneau gold mining shares was looked on with interest by tape watchers, reports the Denver Mining Record. The transaction involved 1000 shares. The price was 8A.

The stock lost its buoy ancy several day ago when the news of improvement was out and reg ular dividend basis of 40 cents a share annually was established.
 The reaction fro mthe years high prices however has been confined to a relatively narrow range and the evidence of bids above the $8 level was an encouraging sign to those who have been willing to as sume risks in a speculation in which the prospects rest on gold recover ieS.
 Further encouragement has been offered in the statements for the first two months of 1881, showing gross profit of $647,000 and net profit of $270,500 before deprecia- tion and federal taxes. This com pares with gross of $506, 500 shown for the first two months of 1929 and net profit of $l09,150 before depre- ciation and taxes but after interest charges, which are, now eliminated,
