SCHENECTADY, N. Y, Oct. A
Orders received by General Electric
Co. during the quarter ended Sep
tember 30 totaled $l85,156,837, the
biggest amount of business ever
written on the books in any three
months period, the company an
nounced today.
The aggregate represented an in
crease of 1873 per cent over the S79,-
510,205 of orders for the like 1899
period.
For the first nine 1910 months
orders totaled $397 ,S10,151, biggest
for any similar period, and gain
of 60 per cent over the SPAS, ,581 ,851
for the like period last year.
Largely as a result of the ma
tional defense plan, United States
Government orders accounted for
slightly more than one-fourth the
total business so far this year,
Charles E. Wilson, president, said.
But he added that exclusive of busi-
ness for the Government, the COM
pany's orders received from "regu-
lar commercial sources" during the
first nine 1910 months were 81 per
cent greater than in the like period
last year.

Firms to Face Test
BY the Associated Press

BALTIMORE, Oct. 4.-State In
Surance Commissioner John B.
Centrum yesterday served notice
that insurance companies profess
ing to be fraternal beneficial as
sociations' but actually operating
as mutual or stock companies would
be barred from Maryland.
The action, he said, was taken
with "the support of the legiti-
mate fraternal beneficial associa-
tions."
These fraternal societies are ex-
empt from taxation, as "benevo-
lent or charitable institutions.
Centrum said he would "recog-
nize in every way legitimate fra
ternal beneficial associations, as
many of these perform fine public
service" but the "so-called" fra
ternals would be barred.

NEW YORK, Oct. 4.-Loans Of
the German government, its munic-
ipalities and industries had another
upward whirl today in the bond
market, but domestic corporate issues
were mixed, with minus signs having
the edge.
Talk was heard in Wall Street of
legislative efforts in the offing to
attach German assets here for the
benefit of creditors, and added fur
ther to the wave of buying which
has in some cases doubled the
quotations of German city, and in
dustrial loans recently. Rumors that
there was propaganda buying for
official quarters behind the recent
move did not find confirmation in
usually we'll informed quarters.
Gains of 3 to as much as 7 points
were scored for German Central

CrucibIe Steel Plan
Approved Despite
Court Action
Holders Back Merger;
Injunction Hearing
Set for Monday
By the Associated Press.

BY the ASSOClhIeu fTeSs.
JERSEY CITY, N. j, Oct. A.
Stockholders of Crucible Steel Co.
of America have approved a plan
for merger with the company's wholly
owned subsidiary, Pittsburgh Cru
chile Steel Co., in the face of court
action to prevent the consolidation.
The plan also provided for
change in capitalization which would
dispose of preferred dividends ar
rearages totaling about $40 a share.
On Monday a Jersey City court
will act on making permanent a.
temporary injunction granted last
Wednesday to eight preferred stock
holders who sought to block the
merger. =
Also approved by stockholders were
proposals to eliminate a S31, 900 900
deficit in the earned surplus by
charging the amount against capital
surplus, and to revalue the CONS
pany's properties.
Outlook for the company is "ex-
cellent," F. B. Hufnagel. chairman,
told stockholders. He said he based
the opinion on orders on hand
rather than prospective business.
Hufnagel said the ordnance divi-
sion was operating at full time, al
though defense contracts were not
directly responsible for a major part
of current operations.
Expansion might be necessary in
divisions making munitions and de-
fense materials, he said, adding that
general capacity was pretty well
taken up except for the spring and
railroad steel divisions.
