Short Term Seem-ides
are Chief Demand
The securities market has been in
‘a waiting mood all summer: and the
dullness which characterised it in
July has continued ‘during the last
month. wording to the current is-
sue of the Guaranty Survey. pub-
lished by the Guaranty Trust com-
pany of New York. While prices of
some stocks have_ ruched. new low
points for the year. recently there
has been an upward reaction. The
vacation season. however. has left
the market in the hands of a few
and trading has been exceptionally
light.
. Short-term securities are still in
chief demand in the bond market
but here also there has been but a
small volume of transactions. the
Survey says further. Although there
is no major trend of bond prices‘yet
in evidence. there are indications-of
the improvement which is anticipat-
ed for long-term securities when
commercial money rates again do-
cline. The highest grade bonds
have not lost ground as has been
the cure with some of the lower
grades- new long~term loans sell
well when attractively priced: and
some banks in the larger cities have
increased their holdings of United
states government bonds since the
first of June. while disposing of
their government certificates and
notes.
New railway financing consists
largely of equipment. trust certifi-
cates which are generally well so-
cured by a. large equity and are
considered tut attractive form of Mn
vestment. but there are also a. few
new mortgage bonds offered occa-
sionaily.
The steadily increasing use of
electric power in all parts of the
country also continues to absorb
new capital. indeed. the offerings
of public utility and rail securities
have formed by far the greater
part of new corporate financing dur~
ing August. As in July. however.
the volume has not been large and
the proportion of refunding bonds
relatively small. but recent weeks
were marked by an increase in the
number and size of new issues.
hands 0'. those foreign govern-
ments that. are most. concerned in
the reparations problem again have
shown sensitivencss to the current
news from Europe. but on dho whole
have held up remarkably well. re-
cently showing some improvement.
On the other band. bonds of these
foreign governments which enjoy a
good credit standing. have moved
relatively \ery llttlo throughout the
Tim tnonth hits been marked
by the announcement of a short-
u...t iouu .lu Switzerland and a
long-term one to Norway. both of
which have been well received by
investors.
The market for tux-exempt Mu-
nit'ipal and State bonds has been a
typically mid-summer one with most
investors away and relatively few
transactions. Among United States
government bonds prices of the 1st
Liberty Loan have aofuped but the
other Liberty
have been practically stationary.
The Federal Treasury must come
into the market again this month to
refund two issue:- of certificates og-
grcgating about 83.00.000.000 which
mature on September 15. In the
past two years the program for re-
flnuncing the short-term debt has
been carried out successfully and a
new program must be undertaken.
Two years ago there wore outstand-
ing nearly 02.700.000.000 of ccrtfl-
:ules. maturing during almost every
month within a. year. nearly 84.-
000.000.000 of Victory Notes matur-
ing on a. single date within. two
yt‘arl. cmla large amount of sav-
ings ccrtii‘lcatoo—the whole totaling
over 37.600.000.000.
Today. this has been reduced by
more than 82.000.000.000 and dis-
tributed over a period of four years
in reasonably small amounts with
the principal maturities on dates of
quarterly tax-payments. a provision
which should greatly facilitate its
furtherrcfinanclng. Moreover. the
investment market is now 'offcred a
wider choice of these premier short-
term securities and is no longer
faced with too frequent new issues.
This refinancing has been accom-
plished by means of attractive of-
ferings of both short and long-term
securities without disturbance of the
market. which policy with its bene-
fits both to the government and to
the investor should be continued.
The Petroleum Industry
In his recent address at Titusvlllo.
Pa. A. C. Badford. chairman of the
board of the Standard, Oil company
of New Jersey. mentioned a num.
ber of factors which are responsible
for the present domoraliaation in
the petroleum industry. During the
first half of 1923. be said. stocks of
crude oil increased 85,000,000 bar-
rels .of which 10.400.000 barrels
were credited in June. imports from
Mexico declined 30.744.000 barrels
in the last five months. but that de-
crease was onset by California
crude. which has twice the gasoline
content of Mexican oils. The ag-
gregate crude oil production and im-
ports during the first five months
amounted to 810.108.000 barrels.
representing“ increase of 22.820.-
000 barrels. or 7.94 per cent. over
the corresponding ported of 192:.
Of that total. “1.100.436 barrels
were refined. leaving 60,087,576 bar-
rels. less an indeterminabls quantity.
used “straight" as fuel and not
taken up in the govemmeat statis-
tics. This balance is now in the
field or in storage. Mr. Redford es~
timatcd 10:8 domestic crude pro-

sisting of 823.080.!" barrels from

qult'ements by 350,183 barrels. in
addition to the California surplus.
Features of Foreign Trade
Export trade for July and the
aoven month-of the anatomic both
ter than in the like periods of the
year before but one finds little sign
of this better buying manifesting it-
self in the old-time important Has.
A few years ago the returns of ex-
ports of grains. meats. cotton. live
animals and petroleum and its pedd-
ucts wore esteemed valuable as
showing trends of trade. .but what
July returns are atailable of such
oxpofis thus far in August fail to
show much growth. and. in fact. ex-
ports of meats. dairy products. ani-
mal oils and fats. grain and flour.
canned fruits. conned salmon. raw
cotton and cotton fabrics all show
decreases in July this year from
last. And yet. as the returns of an
export trade for July and the seven
months show. July exports cxceedcd
those of a. year ago by . per cent"
and the seven .months' total ex-
ceeded those of 1922 by over 6 per
cent. In imports. partial explana-
tion of the gain over July a year: ago
of 1'3. per cent. is to be bad in the
figures of receipts of textiles. which
arc. generally. heavily in excess of
the earlier firrlod.
Segregation Law Not Applicable to
Interstate Passengers.
The Maryland statute requiring the
segregation of white and colored
passengers is inapplicable to mien
state pcsengers, according to the dc.
clsion of‘ the Court of Appeals of the
District of Columbia in the case of
Washington. Baltimore & Annapolis
Electric Railroad company vs. Viral-
ler. reported in the \Vaahlngzon Law
Reportcr. in this case it appeared
that the appellcc. a colored man.
purchased from tho appellant a
roundqup ticket from. \Talfilngttul
to‘ Annapolis. At the latter place.
after showing the conductor his tick-
et. he entered a car of the train
bound from Annapolis to Baltimore
with the intention of returning to
“'aahington. for whlch purpose it
would be necessary for him to take
another train at some point on the
journey. The conductor asked him
to remove to a section of the-car ro-
served for colored men. This he ro
fused to do and was ejected about
midnight, being forced to remain at
a station in the state of Maryland
until some time in the morning. He
recovered a verdict in an action for
damages and a Judgment thereon
was affirmed by the Court of Ap-
peals. which held that no Justifica-
tion of the eviction had been shown.
(told Exports Gain.
Possibility of a shift in the inter-
national movement of gold resulting
some time this year in the gold ex-
ts from the United States ox-
oding imports is being discussed
ere on the basis of statistics on
gold imports by the United States
for the eleven months aggregated
only 82i9.000.000. a decrease of
“11,000,000. Ol 62 per cent. from
the figure. for the corresponding
period of 1021.
While the imports were decreas-
ing at a rate unprecedented since
America's entry into the war. ex-
ports wcrc going up at a. rate of 07
per cent. The exports. so long neg-
ligible. were only $34,000,000 for the
eleven months. against $22,000.000
for the same period in 1921. but
homo officials declare the trend is
unmistakable and. if continued. war-
rants the assumption that the coun-
try. before many months. will be
sending out more gold than it rc-
celv'ca. .
. The gold receipts are said to have
been the smallest in five years and
indicate to some omcials enormous
forward strides in industry and com-
merce in some foreign countries
rather than a dc reused or decreas-
ed outgoing bus nose or trade for
the United States. Conditions. how-
ever. are regarded as pointing to a
continuation of the export flow even
in the face of payments on account
of the Allied debts.
Lead Output. Increases.
The mine and reflncry outputs of
lead in the United States made good
gains in 1922. and the mine and
smelter outputs of zinc each increas-
od about 70 per cent. over those of
1021. says a Geological Survey re-
port. .
The mine production of soft lead
was 464,000 tons. compared with
409.700 in 19:1.' Mississippi Valley
and Eastern production being about,
350.000. tons and Western States
production 208,000 tons.
The recoverable zinc content of
