Favor Change in
Settlements on
Stock Exchange
Committee of Bankers and
Brokers Advoeates Euro?
pean Plan, but Says
Time Is Not Yet Ripe
Tho principle of the term settle?
ment? which would provide for tho
weekly, fortnightly or monthly de?
livery of stock? traded in on the New
York Steck Exchange, instead of by
2:30 the next day, as at present, Is heart?
ily indorsed by a joint committee 01
bankers ?nd brokers, recently ap?
pointed by tho American Acceptance
Council. However, like the authorities
0f the Stock Exchange, the committee
does not feel that the innovation
could be successfully introduced im?
mediately.
Paul M. Warburg, formerly vice
governor of the Federal Reserve
Hoard, is chairman of the committee,
which was selected on Mr. Warburg',
motion "for the purpose of studying
the advisability of creating ways ana
means of modifying the present system
of settlements on the New York Stocn
Bxchanjie and substituting thereior
gon.o system of periodical settlement."

What Committee Finds
After Several months' deliberation, i
the committee yesterday made public.
its preliminary report, which shows;
1. I;*.*.- the adoption of the term
settlement on the New York Stock
Exchange would resuit in the elimina- ;
tion of a vast amount of duplication :
in the handling o? securities and in j
the effecting of payments.
2. J' at, with proper safeguards, a
term settlement system would be con?
ducive not only in bringing about a
d?sirai mj ification in settlement
opera! ons but also in providing a
safer basis for coping with the money
requirements than is possible in the
; * call money market.
rhat a mass of technical ques?
tions W( aid have to be solved and
gome legal points to be disposed of
before u final conclusion could be
reached.
4. That it would not do simply to
copy the European systems, but that
they would have to be modified and
strengthened in order to serve our
peculiai needs. To illustrate; a plan J
lor term settlement with us would i
have to provide for at least as strong j
a protection by margins, constantly i
to De kept up, as offered by the sys- j
tern now in vogue.
Time Not Ripe
"And," according to the Acceptance
Council bulletin, "finally that the new
daily sett ? ment machin? ry provided
by ' * Ni w York Stock Clearing Cor?
poration is to be welcomed as a very
marked sup in the right direct on.
When '.. - highly complex and splen?
didly conceived apparatus has func?
tion? I for a certain urne and lias been
:? * . and perfected ?n the right of
actual experience a safe basis will then
be furnished for the contemplation of
thi ultimate step, the adoption of a
term settlement system.
"While the American Acceptance
mcil is strongly in favor of a de
ment in this direction; while it
perceives in the adoption of the term
** ement system one of the indis
ab ? st( s t ward tue perfection
our banking system, it cannot be
sized too strongly that precipi
?? action at this time would be noth
orl of disastrous. The prob.em
: it be fully understood and t e plans
carefully matured before the

NO EASING of the discount rate? on commercial paper la yet in sight, ac?
cording to bankers, who said yesterday that the demand for funds from
business still bulks large. The better names are quoted at 7 per cent and little
money is being loaned below that figure. Tha improvement in the market
I for bankers' acceptances continues and there is a good demand from both
i local and interior banks.
COTTONS?Primary
Markets Active; Prices Advance
Pnces of cotton goods in the gray or
unfinished state advanced Yesterday, as
| a result of more active trading than
! ?e market has experienced on many
i Mondays past. The standard 64-60,1
38^-inch print cloths gained a half
; cent a yard for spots, going from 24
[ to 24H cents. In many brokerage:
| housts the demand for print cloths pre- !
dominated, leading to the belief that?
printers are the most active buyers at I
present. Most brokers reported that, ?
while the market was active, sales were
I confined largely to small lots for im- !
mediate use. Buying far into tho fu?
ture has not been resumed to any great
extent, according to brokers.
_ Finished goods continued relatively
inactive. Converters supplying the gar?
ment manufacturing trades, particular?
ly tho children's clothing field, report?
ed that sales were few and collections
slow. The financial side of the busi?
ness is crowing in importance, convert?
ers assert, and many of them are pull?
ing in the credit reins on their cus?
tomers. On the buying side the con?
verters appear unwilling to tie up large
amounts of money in unfinished goods
at present,
SILKS?interest in High
Class Staples Reviving
Retailers and garment manufactur?
ers, the largest buyers of silk goods,
are showing more interest in the mar?
ket than they have for some time past,
in tho opinion of several leading manu?
facturers. Some of the producers of
high-grade goods are of the opinion
that the worst of the slump, which be?
gan around the first, of last month, is
over. However, the price-cutting that
has been going on in the low-end silks
still persists.
Demand for silks for use during the
next two months has revived to some
extent, and inquiries for fall goods are
increasing, according to the makers of
fine fabrics. Figuring on fall lines has
been resumed and some of the manu?
facturers are basing their costs on raw
silk at around $14 a pound. This is from
|1.50 to $2 above the price at which raw
silks have been figured in goods already
produced for spring or in the process of
manufacture. The big producers are
ulso figuring on labor at its present
price. Th? cuts of three cents a yard
made in the weavers' pay in a few of
the Georgette mills in Paterson, say
the big-mill men, are not indicative of
a general reduction in tho price of
labor.
A few manufacturers who were dubi?
ous a few weeks ago concerning the
ability of the trade to pass along high?
er prices are beginning to believe that
prices must advance. The more con?
servative among them frankly expect
a diminished demand to result from
another increase.
JEWELRY?Retailers Report
Strong Call for Movclties
There is a strong demand for glit?
tering effects in chains, beads and
bags. Imitation amethysts, topazes and
sapphires are perhaps the most popu?
lar, owing to the readiness with which
they harmonize with the various shades
of brown which prevail in the season's
';r?.-s shades. As the season advances
jet is expected to become more fash
?nnble. Beads, bracelets, hair orna?
ments, shoe buckles and bags made of

Tho feature In the market yesterday
was continued covering by near snorts
and ? sensational ajvanc? in the price
of March contracts. There was some
March for sal?, around 40.40 at the open?
ing and It was rumored that the liquida?
tion of one of the larger long lines was
completed around that figure. Other
March loners were evidently holding for
higher prices, however, and shorts found
It necessary to advance their bids sharply
to secure a ci>mpar?tlv?ly limited supply
of contracts. The price touohed 41.70
in the late trading, ur 135 points above
the closing quotation of last week, and
closed at that level, with the general list
closing firm at a net advance of 37 to
136 points.
There was some selling at the start
owing to lower Liverpool cables, a favor
able long range weather forecast and the
early decline in foreign exchange. First
? were 15 points lower to * points
higher, with May and later dellverlos sell?
ing i; i" IS points net lower during the
first few minutes. The evident strength
of March held offerings In check, how?
ever, and the tiaik"! soon turned firmer
on covering by May and July shorts. Buy?
ing for trade account also was in evi?
dence, particularly in July, which Bold up
to 31 B5 In the late trading, or 75 points
net higher. The ? lose was only a few
points off from the best on May and later
deliveries as a result of realising.
The opinion prevailed around the ring
that only a small Interest remained out?
standing in March, but It was realized
that even a few contracts might cause
violent fluctuations owing to the Impossi?
bility of getting cotton nere for delivery
before the end of the month. Trading In
the present March contract will end at
noon on Thursday, even If the remaining
interest is ri"t completely evened up be?
fore then. The daily forecasts published
shortly after the op nlng were less favor?
able than expected and probably con?
tributed to the advance In May and later
deliveries. Southern spot markets as of?
ficially reported were- 1 ;i points lower to
56 points higher, ' with a small volume of
business
The local spot market was steady and
7? points higher at 43c for middling. No
sales were recorded.

Wheat?Kxport orders again appeared
In the market and bids were considerably [
raised over those of last week. It was
I said that the principal buyers were pre
I pared to take large quantities of wheat
either at the Atlantic range or at Oulf
I ports, but otters were limited. Sales were
i reported, however, of 200.000 bushels at
the ?lulf. which was said to have ?old

! There were also one or two small lots

! This demand at the seaboard appoared to
strengthen the Interior market, and Min?
neapolis was up 6 cents, white Kansas
i City was unchanged to 2 cents higher.
The visible supply showed a decrease for
the week of 1.347,000 bushels, bringing
the total to 47.679,000, compared with
j 101.94?.000 a year ago. There aro large
i supplies In the country, but the move.
I meut is of small proportions, owing to
the car situation. The numerous com?
plaints regarding the outlook for the now
crop aro having more or less Influence on
the market at the present time, and the;
trade appears to toe less concerned over!

dinner gowns. Smart collars made of
strings of pearl held together by up?
standing jewelled links are among the
newest lines. In addition, 45-inch
strings of pearls are worn looped
about the neck.
Jewelry manufacturers continue to
find it difficult to secure adequate sup?
plies of semi-precious stones. A scar?
city of tourmalines, amethysts, gar?
nets and peridots exists. Although
a few shipments have reached here
within tho past few weeks, they failed
to keep in step with the demand.
Manufacturers who expressed the opin?
ion that supplies would be received
from Austria after the ending of the
war have grown uneasy and have sent
representatives to that country and
Czecho-Slovakia to get stocks.
LEATHER?Deliveries of
Fall and Summer Shoes Better
Shipments of finished shoes are go?
ing out of the local factories in large
volume, following embargo removals
and the breaking of transportation dif?
ficulties. Figures for the last week
show that shipments in that period !
were the largest thus far during 1920.
Large stocks of merchandise had ac- ?
cumulated, and, with retailers and i
wholesalers calling for quick delivery,
shoes were rushed out as fast as poss'i- j
ble. While the shipping departments
are being cleared as quickly as possible, j
production schedules arc still off, al?
though the industry is rapidly getting
back to normal.
Most firms now have all their sales
men on the road showing fall stocks, i
Brooklyn manufacturers, after putting i
out the brogue cautiously on the mar- i
ket, are pushing this style with more I
vigor. Practically every salesman is
carrying a varied line of brogues. !
There is no recession in prices. Brogues
are being made of grained and boarded j
leathers, with heavy soles. A big sea
son in brogues is expected, and retail?
ers arc placing fall orders for this
style accordingly. Retailers also pre- !
diet a long low shoe run, particularly
in women's footwear.
The leather market is still carefully ?
watched by buyers. Witb salesmen on
the road sendintr hack orders, buyers
nparehtly are holdinjr off as long as
possible. Several of the large manu?
facturers finally have reached the con?
clusion that higher prices are danger?
ous. Pointing to tho extensive propa?
ganda against the high cost of shoos
and other leather goods, these manu?
facturers expect a more conservative
buying policy from both the public and
the retailer.
F ?UR S?Canadian
Auction Sale Opens
Approximately four hundred buyers
from the United States, Canada and
Europe assembled in Montreal yester?
day for the first fur auction sale to be
staged by the recently organized Cana?
dian Fur Auction Sales Corporation,
Ltd. American buyers were interested
in the large offering of Canadian furs.
Mole, one of the first articles offered,
brought average prices slightly below
those set at the New York and St.
Louis nuctions.
A beaver skin, emblematic of Canada,
was sold for th'o benefit of the Univer?
sity of Montreal building fund, and
brought $13,750. The morning sales
totaled $190,473.

the grain corporation goes out of busi?
ness on June 1.
Corn?New high records were ?gain es?
tablished In the corn market and prices
more than recover? d the losses experienced
at the close of last week. The main bull- I
ish feature in the whole sltuntion was tha
car shortage and the Inability to move
corn from country points to the terminal
markets. This has resulted in repeated
advances and the trade has-sbout come to
the conclusion that there is little probabil?
ity of any sustained decline until re?
ceipts increase sufficiently to create a sur?
plus to stabilize the market. There was
heavy buying for outside account at times
and those who had ?old short last week '
on the assumption that the bull move?
ment had culminated, were forced to
cover.

Exchange Ruling
Blocks NearCorner
In General Motors
Announces That New Shares
Are Deliverable in the
Ratio of Ten to One
Against Sales of Old
Prompt action by tho Stock Ex?
change authorities yesterday prevented
what may have developed into a comer
of General Motors common stock. Af?
ter the price in the first few minutes
of trading had reached the new high
record of 409, mainly because of ur?
gent buying by those who had sold in
anticipation of a decline, the commit?
tee on securities ruled that the com?
pany's new no-par value shares were
a good delivery against sales of the
old stock in the ratio of ten shares
of now for one of old.
This announcement encouraged the*
bears to start new operations and,
aided bv selling from those who had
bought for tho rise, they succeeded in
bringing about a decline in tho old;
stock to 363, or 46 points under the
high. Both the sensational rise and
the subsequent, drop fbok place in the!
first hour of trading. Covering opera- j
tions by traders and what was termed
"inside buying" curried the price at
the close back to 373.6, a net loss on'
the day of G'4 points.
The action of the Stock Exchange au?
thorities in their attempt to put a stop
to the wild market in the old stock
met with considerable criticism in '
some brokerage quarters, where it was '?
felt that tho committed on securities
should have acted sooner in announc- '
ing its decision. Tho new stock was!
admitted to trading on the exchange !
on March 5 as a result of the recapi- ]
taiization plan of the Genoral Motors)
Corporation in issuing ten shares of:
new common stock in place of one I
share of the old stock. Since that!
time, however, those who have sold
the old stock have been compelled to i
deliver in shares of the same issue.
In view of the fact that the floating!
supply of the old shares has been |
greatly reduced by their exchange for!
the new stock, it has been difficult for;
the "shorts" to borrow stock to deliver!
against their short sales. It was this!
condition that; accounted in a large
measure for the wild market of the
past week in the old shares.
At yesterday's record high price
General Motors showed an advance of
183^ points from the year's low of
225%, touched in February, and a gain
of 2V6 points over the previous high
price of 406**2, made last November,
just prior to tho big decline. The
new high price was equivalent to 2,045
for the original common stock, which
was split up live for one late in 1916. In
that year the stock could have been
purchased as low as 120.

Western Electric
1919 Profits Grow
Though sales of the Western Elec?
tric Company in 1919 declined
$0,504,000 to $135.722,000 owing to
the lessened government requirements
following the cessation of the war, net
profits available for interest and divi?
dends were larger in the year than
in 1918. The reason for this, the an?
nual repotr issued yesterday to stock?
holders explained, was due to the cut
in merchandising costs of $9,799,251.
Total income last year amounted to
$136.577,067, which compares with
$145,891.038 in tho preceding year. Cost
of merchandise absorbed $118,420,440
of that amount against costs in the
year before of $128.219,691. Other
expenses aggregated $10,986,139 and
taxes $1,518,399. The balance avail?
able for dividends after all expenses
and charges was $4.388,909, a gain of
S87X.528 over 1918. After allowing for
dividends of $1,800,000 on the pre?
ferred stock there remained a balance
applicable to the 150,000 shares of com?
mon stock equivalent to $17.25 a share,
against $11.40 a share in the preceding
year. Holders of the common shared
$1,500,000 in dividend disbursements
during the year, leaving a $1,089,909
surplus.
Merchandise on hand December 31
last, was inventoried at $45,097,845 on '
the balance sheet. This is about the
same amount as the year previous.
Cash on hand was placed at $4,914,238,
and bills receivable $1,355,015. Ac?
counts receivable aggregated $29,526,
549. Total assets were $128,489,925.
On the liability side $30,000.000 was
shown in preferred stock and $27,054,
594 in common. First mortgage 1922
5 per cent bonds were put at $15,000,
000. General bills payable totaled
$13,500,000.
Unfilled orders at the end of the year '
amounted to $47,442,000, which is the
largest amount of business ever on the
books and compares with $26,265,000
at tho end of 1918.
Booth Fisheries Earned 34
Cents a Share on Common
As a result of operations in the year'
ended December 31, 1919. the Booth
Fisheries Company returned a surplus
after charges and Federal taxes of
$431,834, equivalent, after preferred!
dividends, to 34 cents a share earned
on the 250.000 shnres of common stock
outstanding, compared with $749,359, or
$1.89 a share, in 1918. i
Net profits were $1,433,238, a $784,439
falling off from the preceding year.
Interest absorbed $707,728 of that
amount, or $12,148 less than in the year j
before. Federal taxes also showed a ;
decline, being placed at $48,000, com?
pared with $250,000 in 1918. After in-;
terest of $707.728 had been deducted:
balance available for dividends was j
$431,834. Surplus after all charges ag-!
gregated $86,887, a decline of $386,638;
from the preceding year.

750 Deep Sea
Doekmen Quit; !

United Fruit Co. Employees
Demand Increa^ and |
Permission to Unionize; |
Harbor Situation Worse
Food at Piers Spoiling
Longshoremen and Road
Heads End Parley; Re?
ferred to Managers' Board j
-
The harbor situation resulting from i
| the strike of 7,000 longshoremen
I against the five coastwise lines of the
part was aggravated yesterday, when
! 750 deep sea doekmen walked out on
three piers of the United Fruit Com-,
1 pany.
The action had no connection with
i the coastwise controversy, but grew
; out of the demands of the deep sea ?
longshoremen for more money for the
checkers and permission to unionize
them. The checkers now get $105 a
month and want $160. The United Fruit
Company always has maintained an
open shop, and notices posted to that
effect on the piers of the firm yester- ;
day are said to have assisted in pre?
cipitating the break.
The men are said to have gone out in
: violation of the orders of T. V. O'Con
! nor, president of the International
j Longshoremen's Association, who in
i structed on Saturday that no strikes be
i called until his return from B?falo.
Incoming Vessels Affecte J
The walk-out affects incoming vessels
of the company at Piers 15 and 16, on
the East River, and outgoing ships on
Pier 9, North River. At Pier 16, the
? steamer Calamares, which arrived dur
I ing the morning from Jamaica and Cen
I tral American ports, was tied up with
! 55.000 stems of bananas and a large
j quantity of sugar, coffee and coconuts.
Ralph Keating, freight agent, said
I much of the food would spoil if not
? unloaded promptly. The loading of the
steamer Carrillo at Pier 9 also was
halted, making thirty-six vessels now
tied up by strikes in the harbor.
The reported dissolution of the union
of masters, mates and pilots of Harbor
No. 1, embracing the New York district,
and the formation of a new local, to be
affiliated through the National Associ?
ation of Masters, Mates and Pilots of
j America with the "Big Four" railroad
I brotherhoods, was discredited yester
j day by Captain William A. Maher,
I business agent of tho Harbor No. 1.
Union Declared Intact
It had been said that, fearing to be
j drawn into the present longshoremen's
i strike, masters, mates and pilots em?
ployed on railroad floating equipment
| at this port had formed a union of their
| own, were given a charter by John
l H. Pruett, national president, and now
; were affiliated with the railroad broth
; erhoods. The new local is declared to
I be known as Jersey City Local No. 3.
! The Harbor No. 1 union had 2,200 mem
| bers, of which about 900 were employed
i on railroad craft and the remainder on
j independent vessels.
"The formation of this new body out
1 of our union," said Captain Maher yes?
terday, "is all news to me, and I don't
believe it. It's an unheard of pro?
cedure in organized labor circles for a
national or international president to
issue a charter to locals having for its
purpose the destruction of other locals
i in the national organization. It may be
! true that a dispensation or permission
| has been granted a handful of dis
! gruntled members of our organization
; to form a union that will line up with
the railroad brotherhoods, but Presi?
dent Pruett would certainly not repre?
sent the best interests of the workers
by granting these discontents a char?
ter, without first obtaining the sanction
of the local they belong to.
Negotiations Are Ended
"As it is, only thirty-two pilots have
dropped out of our union, and no engi?
neers have left us. The so-called in?
surgents are headed by James J. De
laney, Michael McLain, brother of Tug
Superintendent McLain of the Pennsyl?
vania Railroad, and M. J. Harkins, Mc
Lain's cousin. You can say that we are
still intact and supported by the Ma?
rine Workers' Affiliation."
The negotiations that have been go?
ing on between the unions and the
railroad managers for an increase of
about $85 a month for engineers, mas?
ters, mates and pilots were concluded
at a conference yesterday. The matter
will now be referred to the General
Railroad Managers' Association, who
will make known their award in about
ten days.
