Demand Increases
As Crude Prices Lag

Comparison of the 1882 position
of the oil industry with 1929, the
peak business year, indicates im'
provement in every statistical re-
Spect with the exception of the
price of crude, according to the
T. S. Hose report on the oil situ-
alton. The first six months OF
1882 compares with the first half
of 1929, as follows:
Wells drilled, 1900 less; produc-
ton, 80,O00,000 barrels less; runs
to stills, 60,OOO,O0O barrels less;
imports, 14,275,O0O barrels less;
exports 1889 900 barrels more;
stocks of crude, 5O.OOO,O0O barrels
less; price of crude, 53c a barrel
less; demand for gasoline, 1907.
600 gallons more, and stocks Of
gasoline at refineries, 2,617,000
barrels less.

STOCKS RESUME
CLIMB On BIC
BOARD
By LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, July 90 G.N.SO.
The rails stiffened the stock mar
ket today and brought about
resumption of the advance after
a reactionary tone in the first
hour.
The rise assumed yesterdays
spectacular proportions in the
early afternoon. Trading became
heavy, with the high-speed ticker
falling two minutes behind.
Prices spurted from l to 4 points
above last nights close.
Rail Shares Spurt
Railroad shares were the out
standing performers. New York
Central resumed its old place at
the head of the list and rose
more than points in huge deal
dngs.
Many low-priced issues like
Chesapeake and Ohio, Illinois
Central, Pennsylvania and Baltt-
more and Ohio advanced l to 2
points, while the more spectacu-
lar group, including Atchison,
Union Pacific and Delaware and
Hudson, jumped 2 to points.
Stocks suspected of still harbor-
4ng big short interests added to
their recent sharp gains. Amer
lean Telephone advanced 2 points
while Consolidated Gas did well.
Allied Chemical spurted 3 points.
American Can and U. S. Steel
common were inclined to lag but
Steel preferred spurted couple
of points.
More Group Activity
J More group activities were ap-
parent. Alcohol stocks were
pushed to new highs for the ad-
vance on reversal of their earnings
over a year ago. Amusement stocks
were lifted by speculative buying.
Oil shares improved fractionally
under the leadership of Standard
of New Jersey.
Bethlehem Steel preferred re-
covered a 3-point loss which fol
lowed omission of it's dividend

mand. General Motors went to a
new high for the move.

IS FIRM
AND PRICES
HIGHER

NEW YORK, July 20 ON.S0.
Cotton futures today displayed
a firm tone with the run Of con.
tracts a few points above the
previous close.
Trading was restricted in vol
ume and somewhat mixed.
CoOperativeS Selling
Cooperative brokers continued
to sell October. Most Of the
sales came from this source and
from the Continent. New Or
leans sold distant months.
There was a moderate volume
of price-fixing orders from the
trade. Local shorts made cover
ing purchases. Scattered buying
came from Wall Street.
Rains obtained generally over
the belt in the past "a hours,
but for the most part the amount
was small. The forecast for to-
day indicated fair in East Texas
and showers for the balance OF
the belt.
The Texas crop, still two weeks
late, will enter August ABOUT
evenly divided as to normal sea-
sonal progress and a slight set
back occasioned by steadily dry
ing soils, hot winds and localized
insect attack, the Dallas News
condition report says, but on the
whole somewhat improved over
last week. Oklahoma cotton prog.
ress was mostly normal.
Record CarryOver
With the close of the 1882 cot
ton season only a few days off
the largest carry-over ever re-
corded for American cotton is ex-
pected by the Department of
Agriculture in both this country
and the world.
Noon prices were up 2 to 4
points, with October UP 3 at
5.94, December up 3 at Gil,
March up at 6.33, May up 2
at 6.45, and July 1888 up 4 at
