CURB SHARES FIRM
IN QUIET TRADING
Utilities Continue to Feature
Market-0iI Shares
Are Firm.
BY JOHN A. CRONE.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, August 18.-Curb Ex-
change stocks had an indeterminate
trend in dull trading today. Both
sides seemed to have adopted waiting
attitude, following reactions in some Of
the commodity markets and in reflec-
ton of the uncertain trading on the
big board.
The market opened irregularly high
er. There was a furry of buying az
the start, but this dried up as soon as
overnight orders had been executed and
prices eased.
The declaration of the regular divi-
dend by Electric Bond &, Share was
accepted as another sign of the conf
dence business leaders have in the out
look, but the market had discounted
this action in advance. as was evi-
denced by the inability of Electric Bond
& Share to stage any kind of rally on
the news. At one time it was about a
point higher, but most Of the trading
in the stock today was at levels only
narrowly above Wednesdays closing
price.
Most utility issues managed to hold
small gains, but trading was so thin as
to lack significance American Gas &
Electric was more than point higher
and there were smaller gains in Amer
lean Superpower, Eastern States Power
B, Niagara Hudson Power and United
Light g. Power A.
Cities Service was steady and traded
in small volume around 5l4. off a
shade. The company reported July sur
plus Of s549,854 after all charges and
preferred dividends but before common
dividends and reserves. This compared
with 1921 ,618 in July, 1881. For the
year ended July 81, surplus was SIS
$3.50, against S23 965, ,029 in the prev
ious year. Gulf Oil of Pennsylvania.
Standard Oil of Indiana and Interna-
tional Petroleum were firm.
In the motors StutZ was quoted
around its high for the year E. S.
Gorrell, president of the company, an
nounced that August Is untitled orders
on the books Of the company we're in
excess Of total orders for June and July.
The company is expected shortly to an
nounce the acquisition of another auto
mobile company. Cord was steady.
Ford Motors of Canada A was a shade
lower.

BONDS ARE PUSHED
TO NEW HIGH MARK
Domestic Government and
Corporation Issues Are
Favored by Buyers.
BY r. III. RICHARDSON.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, August 1s-After hest
tating for the first two hours, the ad-
vance in bonds got under way again at
midday today and prices were carried tc
new tops for the recovery. The improve
ment included domestic government and
corporation bonds but foreign dollar
issues were inclined to irregularity.
The market opened higher on an over
night accumulation of buying orders
based on Wednesdays rise. When these
were filled, however, the buying dried
up and the market turned irregular in
dull trading There was no renewed
flow of offerings, showing the deter
mination of those long of bonds to hold
for substantially higher levels.
The bond markets recovery. meaSur-
ing about Is points from the 1882 low,
now has wiped out third of the major
decline of over A points that has oc-
Cured since the bond market broke in
the Fall of 1890. The average of go
representative bonds stands today
around 73 cents on the dollar. When
1t is pointed out that many common
stocks. of firms whose bonds were SELL
ing we'll below the average level Of bond
prices, have ranged from 100 to $50 per
cent higher in the past six weeks in
spite of the fact that no dividends are
being paid or are likely to be paid for
many months the undervaluation OF
bonds is apparent.
Nevertheless each check to the ad-
vance in stocks is accompanied by
profit-taking in bonds. This caused
early declines in volatile issues such as
Southern Railway general IS, Nickel
Plate 6s. Rock Island 4l2s and other
junior rails and industrials. but later
these losses were recovered and the rise
was resumed.
Outstanding gains were made by st,
Paul S. Erie General lien 4s and Re
funding 5s, Illinois Central 434s ana
the issues of the st. Louis-San Fran
cisco. The reorganization plan OF the
last named road is reported progressing
rapidly towards a general approval by
Its bondholders.
United States Treasury issues rose IS
to u point in active trading. Inc
treasury is to sell s6o,O0O,0o0 of 9l-
day bills which are expected to reflect
in their prices the markets reduced
emphasis on highly liquid short-term
portfolios, although no fundamental
change in the easy money market con-
ditions now prevailing is expected !or
some time 1t is the good demand LOT
short term securities that brought the
province of British Columbia back into
this market to sell s2,00o,o0o OF two
year rs at 96as. These were readily
sold. The premium received in cana
dian dollars by the province VIII proVloe
more than sufficient funds to pay the
first wears interest and presumably be-
fore the bonds mature the Canadian
dollar will return to par.
