BUSINESS OUTLOOK
HELD UNCHANGED
Temporary Effect of T. v. A. Rul-
ing Leaves General Conditions
Undisturbed in Week.
Special Dispatc to The Sta1

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. February 22.-In its
weekly summary of the general busi-
ness situation, the Standard Statistics
Co. of New York currently comments
as follows:
Although the decision on the con-
stitutionality of the T. v. A. proved
disappointing to the utility industry
and may have temporary adverse
effect on sentiment generally, basic
factors likely to govern the medium
term course Of business remain
unchanged.
True, ruling in favor of the utili-
ties would have hastened the time
when that industry would have in
creased capital expenditures and
thus contributed to revival in the
durable goods trades. However, as
no worthwhile increase in demand for
equipment by the utilities had been
expected this year, and as much uf
the utility legislation still remains to
be threshed out by the courts the
effect of the decision on industrial
activity over the next several months
will be slight.
From a strictly business stand
point. there has been little change
in the outlook recently. Adverse
weather has continued to restrict re-
tail trade, but volumes as whole are
still above a year ago. Bank debts.
which provide a rough measure Of
trade generally, are running 10 per
cent to Is per cent. above q year
earlier"

REVIVAL WATCHED
IN FLOUR TRADE
Grain Market 0ptimists
Turn Attention to Present
Wheat Supplies.
BY JOHN p. BOUGHAN,
Associated Press Market Editor.

CHICAGO, February 22.-Fasci-
mated by evidence of a revival in
domestic -four trade, wheat market
optimists are just now giving atten-
ton to immediate supplies rather
than prospective crops.
In consequence, May contracts,
which represent wheat at present
available for use instead of wheat
yet to be harvested. has widened its
premium to 10 cents bushel over
July, new crop delivery. This means
the May premium has widened ex-
actly 2 cents after narrowing to 8
cents on recent declines.
With authoritative reports at hand
indicating mills are astir to meet
actual need of flour, latest wheat
quotations compared with week
ago range from q of cent off to
81 up, the latter for May. Corn is
ka1ls cents down, oats varying from
"a decline to Is advance, and pro-
visions showing so to 81 cents drop.
Southwest Mills Active.
In particular, Southwestern mills
are reported active, having sold 81
per cent of their -four production Ca
pacity last week, against but 38 per
cent the previous week and only 35
per cent year ago.
In addition to big output of flour,
and large sales of that commodity,
are curtailed receipts of wheat, to-
gether with prospects of heavier week
ly reductions in United States wheat
visible stocks from now on.
Supplies of wheat at Chicago espe-
cially are shown as decreasing, and
although fair-sized import purchases
of Canadian wheat are announced.
domestic wheat premiums hold strong.
Notwithstanding that importers
overseas appear to be taking their time
as to purchases of Canadian wheat,
Chicago specialists say it would seem
inevitable the deficiency in Argentine
supplies this season will have to be
made up largely from Canada.
European Stocks Low.
Assertions are also current that
European stocks are continuing mea-
ger, and that with Europe's crop out
look called the poorest in several
years, there may not be the usual reli-
ance on European new crop supplies.
A widely held belief is that price
advances here will depend much on
demand for Canadian wheat
is great enough to permit of gradual
lifting of quotations in world markets.

debtedness gained proportionately. one
of the important companies indicating
gain of more than 25 per cent in
this item. This, Of course, reflects to
some extent an increase in loans
against policies made by banks. Such
loans are believed by informed
observers to be small.
Despite the scarcity of sound invest
me,1ts returning a fair yield and the
fact that policy loans pay the insur-
ance companies per cent. executives
agree that a further reduction is
desirable.
This seeming paradox is explained
by one of them who points out that

step toward q lapse. We are prin-
cipally concerned with insuring lives,

of premiums.
Frederick H. Ecker. president of the
Metropolitan Life Insurance Co.,
pointed out that loans on insurance
policies really were borrowings against
estates being created to care for de-
pendents, and added: 1T is particu-
larly gratifying to observe that the
volume of new loans is decreasing and
rapidly approaching normal"

condition of butter stocks in foreign
countries. Supplies in a number of
these potential exporting nations. it
was said, are subnormal. Advices
to the trade indicate there is little
prospect of any fresh receipts of
butter at New York during the next
10s days.
Because domestic production and
movement of butter to markets has
been set back seriously by cold
weather and snow, United States
prices have skyrocketed recently.
Spot butter sold around 81 cents a
pound wholesale here the last week
and was quoted above 80 cents in
New York.

cate New Zealand butter can be

HEAVY INDUSTRY
HOLDS ATTENTION
Further Advance Hailed,
With Springs Influence
Yet to Be Felt.
BY J. G. DONLEY.

LA VI noANAkSAs
Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, February 22.-The ac-
cent again this week has been on
Improvement in heavy industry, with
the real seasonal influence of Spring
yet to be felt. The United States
Steel Corp, through its subsidiaries,
received orders for $500 tons of
rails, while Colorado Fuel & Iron re-
ceived an order for $1,000 tons.
There were also further reports of
railway equipment orders, the Ameri-
can Locomotive Co. receiving an order
for five from the Interoceanic Rail-
way of Mexico. The Northern Pacific
Railway, it is reported, will buy this
Spring II locomotives of the largest
type and 1000 freight cars. The en-
gines will be of the Mallet type. 2
feet longer than those now in use by
the company. and motive power and
cars will represent total investment
of about $4,O00.oOO. The company
will also spend $338.000 additional to
strengthen track, bridges and other
structures in preparation for opera
ton of the heavier locomotives, which
will weigh over million pounds in
working order.
Structural Orders Gain.
Structural steel orders have also
come in to supplement the growing
volume of railway business. The
American Bridge Co.. subsidiary of
United States Steel. has booked or
ders for nearly 10000 tons of struc-
turals in the past week. The Bethle-
hem Steel Co. has taken 4,200 tons
of structural steel orders. while Con-
solidated Steel Corp. obtained a Los
Angeles metropolitan water district
contract involving 5000 tons.
Less is heard, meanwhile, about
shading of steel prices in any impor-
tant semi-finished products.
A Wall Street broker-Frazier Jelke
of Frazier Jelke g. Co-after an ex-
tensive trip across the country, wired
his house the following this week:
II have encountered enthusiasm
among leading industrialists every
where have been. In my opinion,
this suggests that both the rise in
stocks and the improvement in busi-
ness is gaining momentum, in spite
of the unbalanced budget and polit-
ical uncertainties. find hotels, stores
and travel. facilities crowded tc ca
pacity. The pent-up, dynamic energy
of the country is being released and
people once more are spending"
Travel Agencies Busy.
Reports of travel agencies and cruise
managers, as well as airlines and rail-
ways, all of which are showing al
most unprecedented gains, bear out
Mr.. Jelke's observations.
Joseph H. zelch, credit manager
for Ginbel Bros, New York, cites
many instances of trade benefits
through the Federal-backed program
of housing modernization. One de-
partment store chain, in a few days
less than two months, sold $250,000
worth Of goods, mainly refrigerators,
washing and ironing machines. An
other chain, he says, has done $780,
900 Of like business in a little over two
months. Meanwhile, Government
losses under its insurance guarantee
have been less than / per cent.
