WATCH TRADING
VOLUME, SAYS
HANEY
Present Range Likely to Hold
Until Test of Waning Hope
For Spring Revival Is Over
BY LEWIS HANEY
Director New York University Bureau
OF Business Research and Former
Economist Of Federal Trade

Director New York University Bureau
OF Business Research and Former
Economist Of Federal Trade
Commission.
Since a week ago, when ad-
vised even traders to wait until
Wednesday, the market has on
the whole been reactionary. The
averages closed on Saturday
about 8 points under the preced-
ing week end, in spite Of a last
hour run up.
On wednesday I suggested a
small early rally. This came
Thursday and Friday morning
but was brief.
Test Spring Revival
Possibly the present trading
range may now continue for .
short time, pending testing OF
the waning hopes for a real
spring revival in business. A
further sustained advance, how
ever, at this time seems highly
improbable. Further liquidation
and lower prices seem to be the
logical expectation.
Remember that this Is almost
entirely professional market.
The professional bull and bear
operators are in a cllnch. The
business news. dividend cuts,
earnings reports, and the high
prices of utility stocks (Which are
the really market leaders,, favor
the bet that the bears will get IN
the first punch on the break.
Watch Volume
Speculators should now Watcn
the volume of trading with
especial care, for this will PROB
ably tell the tale. If the market
reacts a little today and at the
same time the trading volume de.
clines, a favorable indication Will
be given, This would be an lndl-
cation that liquidation pressure
is absent, and that the bulls are
holding their own.
But II GAe IuInOcE VI SAAoAOS
sold rises on weakness in the
market, look out. Even If the VOL
ume picks up sharply on q little
rise in the market, the indication
would probably be unfavorable.
During the last four trading
days it has been notable that the
trading has increased on declines
and decreased on rallies. This
suggests an effort to distribute"
stocks and difficulty in doing so.
Another point to watch is the
action of the rails. This group OF
stocks has been persistently weak
and has shown little rallying
power. AS long as this condition
prevails, it is doubtful If any sus-
tanned strength can develop In
the market as a whole.

NATIONAL DAIRY.
SETS RECORD
FOR YEAR
Corporation Sales Reported
at $74,536, 1928 Above 1929
With Gain in Share Earnings

Washington shareholders in
National Dairy Products Coz pora-
ton and it's local subsidiaries,
nearby producers and District
distributors and consumers of
dairy products will be interested
in the consolidated report OF the
corporation made public here to-
day.
The corporation set an alEtime
record in net sales volume in
1880, the report shows, with an
increase of $74,536,928 aud a gain
I'm per share earnings, although
there were over million more
shares outstanding than In 1929.
Net is S4.1O Per Share
Thomas H. McInnerney, presi-
dent, in submitting the rel'ort
stated that including operations
for the entire year of companies
acquired during the year and The
companies held under firm con-
tracts at December 81, 1890, and
since acquired, net sales iLr the
year, excluding all intercompany
sales, amounted to $374,oo8 Ali so
as compared with $300,021 ,483 .05
in 1929. The statement con-
tinues:
Con the same basis, confined
net profits for the yeaS 1880,
after giving effect to the an
terest on funded and floating
debt and dividends on prefer
red stock outstanding a. the
end of the year, amounted to
S25,47O.942.48. This is equiva-
lent to $4.1O per share on $780,
1T shares of common stock
outstanding at the end Of the
year.
Combined net profits for
1929 similarly computed were
$2O,758,898.4z, equivalent to S4.O4
per share on 5,133,645 shares
of common stock outstanding
on December 81, 1929.
Total current assets of the cor.
poration are shown at $6S, ,152 1924,
with cash on hand of $19,886,O12
reflecting a current position ratio
of 3.22 to l. This compares with
the report for 1929 which indi-
Gated total current assets of $54-
569,991 and cash on hand of $21,-
O21 1927, a current position ratio
Of 2.68 to /.
$2OO,OOO,OOO to Farmers
The report shows total assets
Of $210,730, ,040.04, exclusive of
good will, compared with total as
sets in 1929 Of $165, ,736, ,620.17;
earned surplus of $37.369 ,222.41,
compared with the $29.733, ,848.81
in 1929; real estate and proper
ties after depreciation, $124,731,-
1850, as compared with $780,
133,207.9O in 1929; provision for
Federal income tax, $3,358,775. 90,
as compared with $2,455,752.95 in
1929. It adds:
National Dairy last year
paid out to the farmers of the
country in excess of S2OO,OOO,-
600; it paid to labor more than
$7O,OOO,OOO; paid taxes of over
$6,OOO,OOO and distributed to its
shareholders more than $13,-
100000. In these connections
as well as in the economic dis
tributiOn of foods we believe
we are playing an important
role in our national life."

PHONE CHARTER
To Be MADE
PERPETUAL
American Plans to Increase
Capital to $2,5Oo, ,ooo,o 900,
Stockholders Are Informed

Plans to increase the author
lied capitalization of the Ameri-
can Telephone g. Telegraph Co.
from $4,000, 100000 to $2,5O0,-
100000 at the annual meeting on
March 81 were revealed in let
ter to stockholders today.
Stockholders at the same time
will be asked to vote on con-
tinuing Am eric a n Telephones
corporate existence.
Seek Perpetual Charter +
The nations utility giant, the
chief component of the Bell Sys-
tenn. whose annual report re-
vealed that its assets had risen
in 1880 to more than $4,000, ,00O,-
600, was incorporated in March,
1885, for term of so years.
Action to continue the corpora
tion is necessary before March,
1885. The directors will ask that
the charter ow be made perma-
nent. A two-thirds vote Of the
outstanding stock is necessary.
American Telephone at the be-
ginning Of this year had $1,795,-
651 200 stock outstanding. About
$39, 900, 900 more offered last year
will be paid for and issued in
1881. There are in addition bonds
outstanding that can be con-
verted into $12,923, 900 additional
stock. Offerings from time to
time under the employees stock
plan also increased the capitaliza-
ton.
Block Left for Future
There will, however, be a con-
siderable block of stock left for
future expansion needs, and the
current plan seems to make it
certain that American Telephone
will finance through stock again.
Talk in Wall Street recently was
that Telephone might have to re-
sort to bonds if it wanted more
money in 1881 due to the unset
tied state of the security markets.
The company's strong cash po.
sition, however. would indicate
that no financing is likely this
year Net working capital at the
end of 1880 was $330,339, 900. or
more than sufficient to take care
of its 1880 construction program
of $450,OO0,O00, part of which is
met through current receipts.
