STOCKS HIGHER, MANY REACHING RECORD MARKS General Motors Advances to New High; Radio Is Steady, Quiet.

Average Stock Prices

Average of twenty industrials Thursday was 202 91, up 1.87. Average of twenty rails was 138.23, up .89. Average of forty bonds was 69.25, up .05. By United Pres NEW YORK, March 16—The rise announced after the close Thursday of $50,000,000 in brokerage loans proved no deterrent to tumultuous activity on the side of the advance in the stock market in the early dealings today. General Motors rose to new record levels. The first sale of the issue was at 16474, up 174 from the previous close. It reached 167% in the first fifteen minutes on heavy turnover. Hudson also was very active, selling at anew high for the year at 98%, up 2%. Loews reached anew record for all time. New Highs New highs were made by New York Central at 167, up 1%; Dupont at 35614, up 2%; Willys-Overland at 2314, up 14; St. Louis Southwestern, 81%, up 114; National Cash Register “A” at 6414, up 4; International Match preferred at 117%, and American Can at 8514. Radio opened at 143, unchanged, and held around that level. American Linseed spurted 6 points to 105. Describing the market, the Wall Street Journal financial review today said: “Less attention was devoted by the speculative community to the $50,000,000 increase in brokerage loans last week than to the weekly Federal Reserve statement. The latter showed a small increase in the holdings of government securities at New York and a decline of approximately $1,800,000 for the system as a whole. “These figures were regarded as significant in demonstrating that the Federal Reserve Board had not seen fit to take action against the current activities in stocks by resuming sales of government securities in the open market. This factor left the way free for further bullish operatings in the early dealings.” G. M. C. l T p # Points Advancing tendencies went ahead through the morning under the leadership of General Motors, which touched, 169, anew high, and a net gain of six points. Du Pont spurted 47* to 358. Allied Chemical was actively bought, the price advancing to a new record high at 15974, up 4%. Buying was based upon the excellast year when earnings were equivalent to $10.03, compared with $9.79 a share in 1926, the previous banner year. American Can and Continental Can both set new records, duplicating their performance of Thursday. Sinclair soared a point to 2374, a new 1928 peak on heavy trading.

In the Stock Market

(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, March 16.—We are surprised and rather disappointed at the moderate increase in brokers loans. We had expected anew top, and the only apology we have to offer tor the error of my calculation Is that there was a great deal more stock bought for all cash or nearly all cash than we figured on. Mors important, though than this is the picture of prosperity presented by the report of the Allied Chemical Corporation for 1927, the year that we talk about as a poor one, showing Increased earnings and investments of $86,000,000 and only a little circle within the circle that knows how much the book profit must be on these stocks that the company owns. Os greatest significance, however, is the increase of earnings of the year over previous years. Os course we dor* t know what the stock is going to be worth in two or three years from now, but it was selling at a good deal less than s2ou a share Thursday. And now just a word to the propagandist of hard times. During the so-called poor years of 1927 the New York savings banks show an increase of over $300,000,000, bringing the total up to well above $4,000,000,000.

STRONG FOREIGN MARKETS BOOST CORNPIT PRICE Export Demand Good; Liverpool and Argentine Prices Up. B.y United Press CHICAGO, March 16.—A higher close on Argentine markets Thursday and stronger tendencies at Liverpool today, combined with good export demand to send corn prices into another fractional advance on the Board of Trade today. Oats followed corn, but wheat was pulled both ways and averaged around steady. Opening figures were: Wheat, %c lower to 14c higher; egorn, M to 14c higher, and oats, V* to %c up. Provisions opened unchanged. The situation in corn is conceded to be strongly bullish. With the country movement from Southwest and western points practically over, receipts here are small. Export business is picking up and Europe will have to buy heavily of American corn before June. Sentiment in wheat is mixed. The American winter wheat situation still dominates the market, but while Southwest points report excellent conditions, the central section of the belt complains of heavy winter killing. Good rains and snow continued over the Souhwest last night. Talk of export business and a good cash demand are giving the oats market some strength. The market is still inclined, however, to follow other grains. Chicago Grain Table —March 16— WHEAT— prev. High. Low. 12:00 close.

BUS MERGER ORDER IS ATTACKED IN PETITION Ask Reopening of Line to Shadeland Ave. on Twenty-First St. Unification services offered by the Indianapolis Street Railway Company and the People’s Motor Coach Company, at the order of the public service commission, have been attacked in a petition for rescinding, filed with the commission by Mrs. Orie V. Burch and Mrs. George E. Crouch. The changes, which went into effect Thursday, included abandonment of the bus line on TwentyFirst St. between Emerson and Shadeland Aves. The petitioners, who are patrons of this route, ask that this order be rescinded so persons living east of Ritter and Emerson Aves may have transportation. Patronage in that section has increased. the petition cites, as a result of the change in schedule of the Newcastle Union Traction interurbans, making it necessary that the busses be used.

RAIL MAGNATES CONFERRING ON MERGERJLANS Discuss Proposal to Form Four-Line System of Eastern Roads. By United Press NEW YORK, March 16.—Eleven executives of eastern railroads went into session today at the office of W. W. Atterbury, president of the Pennsylvania Railroad, to discuss whether eastern lines should be consolidated into four or five systems. L. F. Loree. president of the Delaware & Hudson, who is the leading proponent of the five-system plan, was present, despite a recent 'llness. Road President Attended The session was private. In addition to Atterbury and Loree, those present were Daniel Willard, president of the Baltimore & Ohio; James Schreider, vice president of the B. & O.; A. J. County, vice president of the Pennsylvania: O. P. and M. J. Vansweringen, Nickel Plate; J. J. Bemet, president of the Erie; Elisha Lee, vice president of the Erie; Patrick Crowley, president of the New York Central, and George Ingalls, vice president of the New York Central. As the session began it was strongly reported that a compromise had been reached with Loree regarding abandonment of his proposed fifth eastern trunk line, and that the executives might agree finally today on the four-line system. Would Remove Barrier The greatest stumbling block in the three years of negotiations thus would be removed and the executives could prepare to submit a comprehensive plan to the Interstate Commerce Commission for the mergers. The four-line system would be built around the Pennsylvania, B. & 0.. New York Central and Nickel Plate as a nucleus, with Eastern short lines divided among them to facilitate the coordination of the big systems. Disposition would have to be made of Loree’s combination through control of the Lehigh Valley and Wabash with the Delaware & Hudson. Divide Smaller Lines The Loree lines may be divided equitably among the Big Four, Loree himself joining with the Van Sweringens in operation of their lines. The Delaware & Hudson would remain as an independent system, which would be used by the four trunks equally to reach the northeastern territory it serves.

Some of the larger short roads involved in the consolidation would be the Reading and the New Jersey Central, most of whose trackage probably would go to the B. & O : the Lehigh Valley, jointly to the Pennsylvania and Nickle Plate; the Western Maryland, to the B. & O.; the Norfolk & Western and the Virginian. to the Pennsylvania, and the Wabash, probably mostly to the B & O.
