Will Fight If Necessary

DUT the Street also has made up
- its mind to fight if things in
Washington go too much against
it. Il realizes that It's business is at
stake, and it has no idea Of giving
up without battle. And it is not
without considerable influence. It's
political tactics in the past have
been very bad, but it seems to be
learning a few of the tricks. More
over it has had a taste of blood,
and its courage and determination
have been materially improved.
Whether there is to be peace or war
depends entirely upon the President.
Another matter in which Wall
Street is vitality interested is the sill
yer issue and its inflationary posi-
bilities. Mr.. Roosevelt is reputed to
be opposed to the Dies bill, to which
the silver wagon has been attached,
but many of those in the financial
district believe it might be passed
even over a veto. The fact that the
initiation issue has been tied to an
agricultural measure is thought to
place the chief executive in a tough
SPOT

ARMOUR & COMPANY
STUDIES new PLAN
disqualification Program
Near Completion.
By Times Special

by tm6S Cp6ctub
CHICAGO, April ia recapital-
ization plan for Armour & Co. is
expected to be completed some time
this week in time to be submitted
at the regular meeting of directors
here Friday.
Plans for the new program were
discussed in New York last week
by T. G. Lee, president, and Philip
A. Reed, first vice-president and
treasurer with Frederick H. Prince,
chairman of the executive commit
teee.
All three have refused to COM
ment on the new plan, but indica-
lions are that something has be-
come known, for from compare
tive Iethargy, the preferred and A
and B stock leaped into the group
of the ten most active stocks in
the New York Stock Exchange last
week.
Details of the plan vary widely,
but authoritative sources reveal that
an earlier plan quoted in many
quarters that one class of the COM
mon would be established in ex-
change for the present pereferred
and common issues would not be
followed.
Officials and directors have de-
clared that any plan that is worked
out will permit an earlier dividend
resumption than the present set
up permits.
The company attempted recap
italization program last year, but
failed. Directors are determined
that the present scheme shall be
acceptable before submission to
| stockholders.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Administration Estimates
Emergency Needs at
S7,523,486, 700.
BY RICHARD L. GRIDLEY
United Press Financial Correspondent

WASHINGTON, April 16.-A sharp
decline in federal relief expenditures
with expansion of business and
termination of the CWA program
was shown by treasury department
figures today.
Emergency expenditures OF the
government have dropped nearly so
per cent after reaching the depres-
sion peak of s808,000,000 during
January.
Because of lower relief needs and
slower government relief spending
emergency expenditures total just
half the amount provided in the
budget.
Store Sales Climb
For the present fiscal year the
administration estimated emergency
needs at 1888, 1876, ZOO. For the first
nine months of the current fiscal
year to March 81, 1888, emergency
expenditures amounted to only ST.
900,000,00Q. They are currently run
ming slightly above this rate, but at
about half that of January.
The less than anticipated govern
ment aid for business and relief was
believed to indicate a greater than
expected expansion in business.
Of the various government de-
partments the Reconstruction FL
nance Corporation is believed to
have shown greatest reduction in
emergency expenditures. This unit,
Jesse H. Jones, chairman, esti-
mated will spend $50O,OOO,000 less
this fiscal year than provided for in
the budget.
Important business indices showed
further gains in business activity
this week. Department store sales
in March showed the greatest climb
since the depression, registering a
gain of Al per cent over last year.
Pay Rolls Show Gain
The gain was believed to reflect
the nations growing pay rolls and
employment and marked rapid
flow of goods into the hands of con-
sumers. Another important con-
sumner buying index, automobile
production, last week reached an
other ne WHICH when 1922 units
were turned out.
Both production and employment
records in the automobile industry
since September, 1929, were re-
ported broken by the upturn dur
ing March. The steel industry
stepped up ingot output to the high
est level of the current year at
1872 per cent of capacity. Electric
power output last week was 15.5 per
cent above year ago.

the stock market regulation meas
ure.
The boys in the financial district
have sawed a lot of wood since Mr..
Roosevelt went away. 1t looks as
though they have cut the market
regulation bill down to where it is
not too severe, and it looks also as
though they have sold some of the
Presidents representatives on the
notion that the Securities Act Of
1888 should be amended. Their &C
complishments, in fact, have seemed
almost too good to be true. There
fore, they await Mr.. Roosevelt's re-
turn with fear and trembling. but
also with the feeling that they
should know the worst as soon as
possible.
