STEEL PRODUCTION
FORCES UPWARD
Ingot Output Placed at 47.4 Per
Cent of Capacity-Furthsr
Advance Predicted.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 14.-A sharp
upturn in steel ingot production this
week carried the estimated rate up Al
points to 474 per cent of capacity,
and trade predictions were for fur
their improvement. Contracts placed
prior to the price advances were well
in excess of first quarter commitments
and were said to insure sustained
operations during the second quarter,
barring further automobile labor diff
culties.
All non-ferrous metals were firm
with the exception of tin. In that
metal decline of more than l cent
per pound for the week reflected the
action of the London market and for
eign exchange as we'll as uncertainty
over possible production quota charges
by the International Tin Committee.
An additional IA cent per pound
advance in copper reflected trade ex-
pectations that the copper code under
the N. R. A. would soon be signed. An
advance of SIS per ton in the New
York price for lead resulted from ac-
tive buying. The advance in zinc was
extended further. making a gain of
81 per ton from the recent low. Anti
mony was quiet.

New York Cotton
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 14.-While trad
irg was quiet and fluctuations some
what irregular, cotton showed a gen.
orally steady tone today with a slight
early decline followed by rallies. July
contracts after selling at 11.92 early
worked up to 1900 and closed at 1877
with the general market closing steady
at net advances of 2 to points.
Initial offerings were absorbed by
continued demand from trade or
spot houses, and after selling off to
11.81 for May and 1904 for October
prices steadied on support from these
sources.
Covering became a little more ac-
tive in the late trading. May sold up
to 11.88 and October to 1912. making
rallies of about to points from
the low prices of the morning, and
the close was at or within few points
T of the best.
The report of the Census Bureau
showing domestic consumption for
March at 543,690 bales against 495,-
1873 last year was a shade above ex-
pectations.
Favorable week end reviews of gen.
eral business conditions also appeared
to help the markets tone.
Local merchants reported quiet
business in spot cotton with no fur
ther change in the basis. They point
ed out that the easier tone recently
reported applied to certain grades
rather than on general market.
The amount of cotton on shipboard
awaiting clearance was estimated at
$4,000 bales, against 100000 last year

comparatively small.

weeks have shown downward trend,
moved horizontally, recording no
change from the previous week.

lower. The price level is now well
under the price level established in

These were offset by declines in oats,
cotton, eggs, peanuts and butter.

cents. There was a dollar mark-up
in quicksilver. Antimony, silver and
zinc also averaged higher.

OFFICIALS PREDICT
NEW TRADE SPURT
Federal Economists Believe
Upturn Will Extend Well
Into 1885.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The consensus among Government
economists is that another upturn in
business is imminent, to take shape
within the next month and to extend
well into next year.
Many reasons are given to back up
this belief. Chief among these is that
purchasing power of workers and
farmers has not declined so fast as In
dustrial production, with the result
that a reservoir of buying power ap-
parently has been built up.
Commerce Department observers
argue that the business setback since
last June did not follow prolonged
upward trend, but came on the heels
Of temporary and minor improvement
that started last November. This they
call important, for it means that the
squirt beginning last Fall was too short
to permit unwieldly inventories to be
built up.
Another premise these economists
stress is that governmental emergency
expenditures, which have been tagging
behind schedules cited in the Presi-
dents budget message, will be stepped
up during the next few months, par
ticularly by the A. A. A. and the F. E.
R. A.
Furthermore, it was pointed out, the
threat of industrial interruption by
strikes is, for the time being at least.
no longer so menacing.

Crowley Opposes
Too Many Banks,
Advises Caution
Special Dispatch to The Star.

special DfSpatcn 10 Inc Star.
BALTIMORE, October 20.-For the
13 years preceding the bank holiday oi
| 1888, America had too many banks
and extreme caution must be observed
to avoid a repetition of the situation,
] according to Leo T. Crowley, chair
man of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corp.
He delivered his warning at the
convention of the National Associa-
tion of Supervisors Of State Banks,
here yesterday.
Mr. Crowley said:
with the gains we have made since
the bank holiday we must be careful
not to return to the errors of those
earlier days and let banks open indis-
criminately. I am fearful that now,
with improved conditions. there may
be a tendency to let down the bars a
little and permit the establishment Of
banks that are both unnecessary and
uneconomic"
Mr.. Crowley declared State banks
generally were in an extremely liquid
condition" and pointed out that the
last bank call showed deposits had
increased by S4,500, ,000, 900.
Declaring that banks which are in
a rs per cent liquid condition are
not really banks, but are mere depos-
itories, Mr.. Crowley predicted that as
business improves and business loans
increase this liquidity will be reduced.
