NEW YORK, January 23.-The Ma
tional Credit Corporation has issued q
call for payment on next Monday Of the
third installment Of 10 per cent, or ap-
proximately 50o0o, 900, on subscriptions
to its gold notes. The previous calls
were for similar amounts All are pay
able at the Federal Reserve Bank in
each district. The last call will bring
the payments to about 100000, 900, or
80 per cent Of the corporations sub
scribed funds.
The corporation, which began opera
tions last November, met its initial
financial requirements by borrowing
from member banks. and not until this
year did 1t send out its first call for
payments against subscriptions. It was
understood that the proceeds from the
first call would be used to pay loans in
CURED to assist needy banks. .4
The three calls in about three weeks
Indicate that the corporations activi-
ties are increasing, and the result lis
believed to be the decrease in bank
failures in the last few weeks.
After the formation of the National
Credit Corporation last October, banks
throughout the country were asked to
subscribe to its gold notes to the ex-
tent of per cent of their net deposits.
Only subscribing banks are permitted
to borrow funds from It. These ad-
yances of loans must first be passed
upon by the Regional Clearing House
Bankers Committee in the district in
which the bank operates and again by
the home office Of the corporation.
After the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation begins functioning, it Is
understood it will take over the aoeivi-
ties Of the National Credit Corporation.
When the latter was formed, 1t was the
consensus that 1t would be dissolved as
soon as possible after legislation had
been enacted to permit the Federal
Government to render such service.

RAIL STOCKS HAVE HELD
WELL IN RECENT WEEKS
Special Dispatch to Tht Star.

SpCIAdI DlophtCI W III oL1A'
NEW YORK, January 23-Wall
Street today was pointing to the con-
trast in the performance Of the rail-
road group Of stocks this month as
compared with their action throughout
1881. They have been the leaders in a
number of movements that have i'm
pressed the Street, and on several oc-
casions their average has closed higher
for the day when the industrials have
shown net decline. 1t Is recognized
that they were liquidated more fully
than any other group, and probably
sold nearer their actual values than
either the industrials or public utilities.
Few of the rail stocks have been re-
capitalized during the past decade, so
that existing quotations made correct
comparison with those of the past, and
are not involved in "split-ups" or stock
dividends to any extent or large in
creases in floating supply. There is q
very confident feeling that the wage
discussion will be brought to close
by the first of next week, and that it
will result in satisfactory adjustment
for both parties. Some enthusiasts to-
day said they expected news of a
definite decision before the end Of this
week.
