change stocks moved uniformly lower
around midday today, after opening
heavy, but with gains and unchanged
initial quotations virtually offsetting the
fractional declines.
Electric Bond & Share at 1875 was
up slightly. Other public utilities in
the first hours also pointed higher,
but turned in the opposite direction
during the noon hour. Cities Service
at 5 was at its previous low level.
Standard Oil of Indiana and Standard
of Kentucky were both easy.
Most movements early In the session
reflected corporate developments made
public over the week end. Aluminium
Co. of America, for example, dropped
to new low on its first few trades be-
cause of it's 1881 earnings of $3I2 a
share on the $6 preferred stock, which
netted $793 share in $780, Tonnage
sales were off about a third from those
of 1880. Appalachian Gas Corporation
duplicated its preceding low as receivers
were appointed for Ohio-Kentucky Cas-
a subsidiary.
Ford Motor, Ltd, was active and
lower, despite the fact that London got
it's first glimpse of the new model to-
day The action of the stock. however,
was more under the influence of the re-
port of a 1881 net deficit Of f134 4,489
and the statement that no dividend
would be distributed for last year,
against 10 per cent for 1890 Ford Motor
of Canada opened up fractionally as
Montreal dispatches told of increased
activity there and at the East Windsor
plants. The B shares, however, were

Holding Companies.

NEW YORK, April 4 (SpeciaD =
Brokers feel that one Of the most dis
turbing features of the market is the
suspicious attitude of shareholders to-
ward the Public Utility Holding Co.
group. Apparently no amount Of evi-
dence that dividends are being COW
cred two or three times over is con-
vincing, for preferred stocks with and
per cent dividends, which have al
ways been regarded as among the best
of their kind, are being sacrificed at
discounts from par ranging from so
to 10 points. Brokers say it will re-
quire time and evidence that the larger
public utility holding companies are
engaged in the power and light busi-
ness, and not managing investment
trusts, to bring back the confidence
that once was so general in this group
of securities. They are selling "ex-
confidence" today at prices that might
be regarded as normal if they were
selling minus their dividends.

Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, April 4.-Bonds dipped
down today in active trading to levels
comparable with their extreme bear
market lows or. in other 2ords, to
prices approximating the bottom levels
of the 1920-1921 depression.
Some satisfaction, perhaps could be
gained from the fact that the decline
chiefly affected the railroad issues, but
the collapse of this group brought out
forced liquidation of every conceivable
kind of bond, from a United States
Treasury tax-exempt issue down to a
defaulted foreign dollar issue selling for
less than 10 cents on the dollar.
The market opened with a steadier
tone, following Saturdays decline Con-
sideration of the taxation proposals over
the week end, 1t was thought, together
with President Hoover's determination
further to reduce budgetary eXpend
itures would improve sentiment in the
security markets. But a few carrier
earnings reports and renewed agitation
in Washington against loans to rail-
roads served to start prices downward
again.
The market displayed uneaSiness over
the position of near-maturity bonds
such as Nickel Plate IS and Cotton Belt
Is. The former dropped IS points to
ner- low for this year and about As
points under the high of less than a
month ago. Cotton Belt As, which
reached SO a month ago, sold today
around 50, off about points, and then
were offered at 81 with not a single bid
in the market. 1t was hardly Surpris-
ing, then, to witness declines Of l to 4
points in such semi-speculative railroad
issues as Southern Pacific AIS, New
Haven AIS. Missouri-Pacific general As,
SIS and 512s. Illinois Central 4As,
Chesapeake Corporation SIS and Ale
ghany Corporation SIS.
The character of the selling was evi-
denced by the losses of Il to u point
in United States Government bonds
much sought after because of their tax
exempt provisions. Prime corporation
investment issues such as American
Telephone IS, Consolidated Gas 51as,
National Dairy Products 51.s and Nor
folk g. western IS were similarly af-
fected Junior industrials sagged with
the rails, though their losses were not
as large.

|COLORS STREAM DISCUSS PLANS FROM HAL YARDS FOR SWITCH IN
 'OF TOURIST SHIP ROAD AUTHORITY
Gov. Parks and Maj. Elliott Talk Over Plans for
 Transfer of Roads

Although orders for the trans fer of the Alaska Road Commis- sions activities to the Interior Department had not been received here today, plans were being dis cussed for that move. The bill passed by Congress directing the transfer is effective now, and the formal order is expected here at any time.
 Gov Parks and Maj. Malcolm Elliott, President of the Commits sion, today conferred on the change. As much property is involved and it is widely scattered over the Ter ritory, it may require some time to complete the switch.
 Until the transfer order is re- ceived here, the Governor said he would be unable to make public any statement on plans for con- tinuing the Commissions work which is now under full swing throughout the interior and north.
 There is also, the question of funds for work after today to be considered The War Department $ supply bill is held up in confer ence and late Associated Press dispatches indicated there was lit tie hope for it to be passed and sent to the President before to- morrow. The Commissions cash on hand has dwindled to few thousand dollars, in excess of the sum required to meet obligations to the end of June
 Field superintendents have been notified by Maj. Elliott to inform the crews that after today they will be working on credit There isn't much doubt that the money will be available for the July pay day, but there is some question about how much there will be. The House allowed the Commission only $354, 900. The Senate added s140,- 900 to that sum, but until ar agreement is reached by the con- ferees on the entire measure, there is no certainty about which amount will stand.
