STEEL DIVIDEND POSSI3LE, SAYS FINANCIAL FIRM Write-Down of Fixed Assets Suggested as Means to Payment. II if 7 / m r* 5 /*iuc ?<// BOSTON, Jan. 17Hornblowcr -fc Weeks, in the first of a newly inaugurated scries of "weekly observation look for the declaration of the regular preferred Steel dividend at this month's meeting. They also point out: "That a v.ritc-down of fixed asset . against the company’s large surplus end reserve accounts, could be made to oifset depreciation charger , which otherwise constitute too heavy a burden against current earning power. Such a move has already been made by the United Fruit Company, which has permitted continuance of regular dividends. "United, States Steel, at the end of 1031, had property and mining equipment valued at approximately $1,700,000,000, and surplus reserves and premiums of better than $860,000,000. Close followers of United States Steel expect if such a procram is undertaken that at least $300,000,000 will be so appropriated to reduce surplus account and it is thereby computed that this would lower depreciation charges in 1933 by $7,000,000. a sum equivalent to $3 a share on the preferred stock." Another of their observations is that of money coming out of hoarding in substantial volume as reflected by the strength in German securities. In turn reflecting not only improved conditions in Germany but the real return of hidden foreign exchange balances occasioned by the restoration of confidence.

In Alaska, near the scene of the explosion of Mount Katmai, 'in 1912, lies the "Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes.” Much of the ground in this. curious valley is too hot for walking. One ran sleep comfortably in a tent on the coldest nights. A few feet below the surface, the temperature of the steam vents is very high, and scientists predict that some day this region will become a geyser basin greater than that of the Yellowstone.

DULL TONE IS FEATURED uY GRAIN^OPTIGNS Lack of Definite News on Either Side of Market Prevents Action. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff i orrespondrnt CHICAGO, Jan. 17. Wheat opened unevenly steady on tha Board of Trade today, s cent lower to * s cent higher. Trading was very low, with a scattering of orders on either side of the market. There was very little in the news. Liverpool was steady at the decline. but reported Argentine and Canadian competition disturbing. Stocks were easy. Uncertainties still held the attention of the trade. Corn was dull and unchanged to cent higher with wheat. Oats also unchanged to ’ 8 cent higher in a light trade, out rye weakened with May off 's cent. Provisions were steady. The heavy selling of late Monday was credited by the pit element to a leading operator hedging a long line of corn. The decline was rather sharp and the close weak. Liverpool was off •?, to 1 cent at midafternoon, about as expected. Corn was under pressure most of the session Monday, owing to the weakness in wheat and increased receipts. Oats remained featureless.
