CLAIMS 20,000 TANK/®
WASHINGTON, Sept. 3 (U. P.) — J. J. Pelley, president of the Asso-
there are 20,000 surplus or idle fant cars that could move between 6, 000 and 8,000,000 barrels of oil a month from Texas to the Atlantic Seaboard. Mr. Pelley téstified that these tank cars are available “at a moment’s notice” and that their ca-
line shortage if present estimates of that shortage are correct. In a statement prepared for readlie to the committee investigating the Eastern oil shortage, Mr. Pelley said that the American Petroleum Institute investigated the tank car situation last May and confirmed the fact that 20,000 surplus tank cars were available. “Within the past week, I have seen reports of another study made of this tank car situation,’ he said. “This report was made by » man selected by the tank car owners and lessees and from the results tabulated to date it is still evident that there is a surplus of some 20,000 tank cars. He said that as of Jan. 1, 1941 there were 143,921 privately-owned and 9734 railroad-owned tank cars in this country. The cars owned. by the railroad, he explained, are used for handling railroad fuel and other railroad materials. About 125,000 of these tanks cars, he said, are suitable for handling petroleum and its products and about one-third of them are owned by oil companies and the remainder by private car leasing companies.
Three Syndicates ToBidonA.T.&T.
NEW YORK, Sept. 3 (U. P.).—At least three major syndicates, including one headed by Morgan Stanley & Co., will enter into the competitive bidding for the forthcoming $95,000,000 long-term debenture issue of American Telephone & Tele-
Morgan Stanley’s decision to enter competitive bidding for the first time in its history came as only a mild surprise to investment quarters, however, since Morgan interests in the past 35 years had handled every pieceof A.T.& T. financing transacted through regular investment channels. J. P. Morgan & Co. and its underwriting successor company, Morgan Stanley, have participated in A. T. & T. flotations approximating $2,000,000, 000 since 1906 A ‘second syndicate will be headed by Halsey, Stuart & Co., leading proponent of competitive bidding,
formed under the direction of Salomon Bros. & Hutzler:.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass., Sept. ¥ (OU Ma-
By ROGER BUDROW ) For months now, the nation has
close squeeze in railroad
i this fall.
That was one of the reasons for urging householders to. buy their winter’s supply of coal this summer. Iv was thought that it would ease the burden somewhat when
res now getting into production, were expected to ship in big supplies. This, added regular Sivilian drow emand, was Roger Bu freely predicted to cause a crisis in freight car space late this. month and next. There may be a freight car shortage. But perhaps there won't. Freight car loadings in Indianapolis certainly are above last year. Inbound loadings are up nearly 16 per cent and outbound loadings have gained almost 24 per cent. With few exceptions, between 3500 and 4000 freight cars a week have been coming into Indianapolis. Outbound cars have usually numbered between 2000 and 2500. It will be interesting to see how high these figures will go in the next few months. Perhaps the railroads will be short of cars because of strikes and: because the shipbuilders got the steel plate in preference to the freight’ car builders. But maybe a lot of the heavy freight business in the past spring was due to companies laying in big stocks because they feared possible shortage, and now won’t need to order so much this fall. And perhaps the railroads have increased their efficiency to a point where the threatened shortage will fail to materialize. Livestock production is not as great it was last summer but that won’t relieve much strain on the railroads because so much livestock nowadays is shipped by truck. But Indiana’s bumper grain harvest wili probably more than make up for that. Grain shipments to Indianapolis, by the end of last week, were nearly 40 per cent ahead of last year at this time and much of the harvest
After two weeks of unusually good * business, department store sales, as reported by the larger stores in the Midwest, gained only 21 per cent over a year ago (in the week ended Aug. 23) as compared with increases of 37 per cent for the previous two weeks. The Federal Reserve Bank -of Chicago reported sales of the larger Indianapolis department stores were 28 per cent greater than in the same week of last year. For the three weeks ending Aug. 23 the gain over last year was 40 per cent. The four-week Somparison was a 38 per cent gain.
IN QUIET TRADING
NEW YORK, Sept. 3 (U. P).— Stocks moved irregularly in quiet Fading during afternoon dealings ay. New York Shipbuilding, a strong feature, gained 1! points to 33 and held a point of the rise. A speedup in shipbuilding was cited as a rexson for demand. Aircraft issues, active and strong early, quieted ang amusements encountered profit taking after several had made new highs for the year. ! Steel issues, rubbers, motors, some utilities and oils were easier.
