TODAY'S
BUSINESS
MIRROR
BY SAM DAWSON

NEW YORK pa CHEEKY profits
report card is being handed in so
far BY American business.
The first 70 companies to issue
earnings statements for the first
three months of this year show
their combined profits after taxes
running Is per cent ahead of the
corresponding period last year.
Two-thirds of the companies did
better this year than last. OF the
rs whose report cards are poorer,
three operated in the red. Last
year four Of them showed net
loss.
The period for which the COM
panies are reporting is the one
directly preceding the start of the
Kremlin's peace hints. The effect
on business production and prof
its of the peace talks is yet to be
recorded.
And this years good showing IS
in contrast to last years poor one.
The first three months of 1852
business profits were trailing the
1851 first quarter by 9 per cent.
That 1851 first quarter, ID fact,
marked the high point of profits.
From that quarter until the third
quarer Of 1852 profits consistent.
ly fell below their marks of the
preceding year.
The turning point came last
summer with the END of the steel
strike. Profits climbed sufficiently
in the last half Of 1859 to all but
erase the slideback CT the first
half, so that for 1852 as a whole
business ran almost neck and neck
with its 1851 profit performance.
A majority of business execu-
tiyes are predicting that the first
half Of this year viii show con-
tinued profit gains. Then opinion
divides, with many still betting on
the year as a whole but d stable
number looking for a slackening
off in the final months.
The 10 companies who have re-
ported to date are but sampling

Meat Gould
Cost More

So you think the price of steak
is too hight
According to L. l.. Rummell,
director of the Ohio Agricultural
Extension Station, meat for the
dinner table might cost lot moro
today if agricultural research had
not taught farmers how to feed
corn to their cattle.
Our nutrition experts learned"
Rummell says, that an acre of
corn fed as silage produces 200
pounds more beef than it does
when the steer eats it as corn and
cob meal. This factors alone means
millions of dollars shared by the
farmer and city consumer"
Other experiments by the Ohio
station have shown that corn cobS
ground with the grain have a feed
ing value worth so percent as
much as the shelled corn for cat
tie. With widespread use of this
grain in the corn belt states, the
results of this feeding test have
made beef C8caper in the food
store.
Rummell points out that other
studies such as animal nuuIuon,
cross-breeding and disease control
are contributing toward an econ
.omical meat supply.
Each year, your experiment
station makes more and more inn
|provements available to the far
|mer," Rummell says. Without re-
search, the homemaker's visit to
the food market would be dismal
chore instead of an adventure in
he selection of interesting, tasty
and healthful foods"

Says Railroads In

Cleveland, Jan. 13 - Walter j
Iuohy, president of the Chesa-
peake &c Ohio Railway, today
charged that the government has
placed the railroads in double ieo-
pardy in their fight for fair re-
gulation.
'The scale is weighted against
the railroads doubly," he said
because we find our competitors
being subsidized and promoted
directly and indirectly, by the
same government that hedges us
in on every side with restrictive
legislation.
Mr.. Tuohy told a large gather
ing oil Industrial, civic and politi-
Cal leaders attending a 100,O0Oth
freight car luncheon at the Car
ter Hotel that the railroads are
trying to have this restrictive leg
islaion brought up to date for the
good of all American industry, not
simply that of the railroads or the
transportation industry"
He acknowledged at the same
time that the new legislative pro.

can't be considered "a panacea for
all the ills of railroads and rail-
road management" /"

Stocks Rise Slightly
As Volume Holds Up;
Series Influence Seen
BY the Associo,.d Pres.

NEW YORK, Oct. The
stock market advanced today
without especial emphasis.
Trading volume held up rather
well at a pace of around a mil
lion shares for the entire day.
Prices were up into the major
fractions with a few pushing to
around a point. Losses were
small. Some of the better gains
were shown by steels, motors,
oils, coppers, aircrafts, chemi-
calls, NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. and rub
bers. The railroads, utilities, and
air lines held steady.
The market remained under
the restraining influence of the
World Series, which commanded
a lot of broker and customer at
tention, and at the same time
the usual short term selling be-
fore the week end was in evil
dence.
The American stock exchange
was mostly higher. Trading was
moderate.
Demand for utilities and rail-
roads helped the bond market to
get ahead. United States Gov
ernment securities in the over
the-counter market were steady
to higher.
