The Wdera Iteserve Bank of ( New
Tork yesterday' Inaugurated a .vliorous
campaign to get the" banks ot tlili dis
trict to buy new i.H persenL certificates,
to be Issued In anticipation of taxes by'
sending a circular letter to each bank In
the district The Issue of i per' cent
certificates started on August, 20 jwqb a
relative failure; only fl53.C00.00O having
been. Bold, against Jl.SOO.OOO sold In
anticipation of the taxes, payable last
June. The letter Issued 'last night by
the reserve bank' was -substantially an'
follows ;
The Treasury Department, has an
nounced the Issue of 4H per cent Treas
ury certificates of Indebtedness, series T,
dated November 7 and due Match' IB.
."ubscrlptlons are subject to allotment,
nnJ the amount which Wilt be allotted'
has not yet been made public The in
tention ot this Issue, however, la to make
advance preparation for the, extremely
heavy tax payments called for by the
pending revenue legislation.
"It Is contemplated In the revenue bill,
that one-third of the income and. excess
profits taxes (estimated at SS.EOO.000.
000) will have to be paid on Mstrch, 13. I
(This means a payment of, more- than'
11,800,000,000,. a sum- difficult, to handle
unless the new .certificates aro taken lib
erally.) "Tho 4 percent- certificates of Indobt-.
edness, which were Issued In anticipation,
of tax payments and are ngw outstand
ing; are convertible Into he new. series
of iVt per cent certificates, and will bo
accepted at par In payment with ad
justments of accrued Interest Any. of
the other Issues of 414 per- cent cer
tificates of Indebetdeness hitherto Issued'
and not called for redemption will also'
be accepted.
"The binks purchased freely the
various offerints of tho 4 per cent
certificates Issued In anticipation of the
Fourth Liberty Loan and this Ifjsue of
4H per" cent certificates, vvhtclr will bo'
received In payment of taxes It ,1s hoped
win meet with an equally good response.
"The Idea. "underlying this. Issue lo hot
that the banks should Increase their bor
rowings to subscribe to these certificates, '
but that they should make gradual 'prep
aration In advance for the hejvy tax
payments which are sure to go'through'
the banks In March. To thev extent'-that"
the banks can resell these .ce'rtlflcites to
customers having larje -taxes to; pay,:
they will relieve the stress and strain
incident to so large a financial opera
tion, "It hi not the Intention to Increase the
burdens of the banks, but to forestall
added burden- which -would fall on them
If they did not take the certificates and
Bell them to their customers?' Bankers
undoubtedly will respond bjrtakfng sub
stantial amounts of these certificates as
they have done In the past"
The rmrcrrase 0f a substantial amount
of these certificates and a- resale to Its
customers. It was pointed "but yesterday,
will relieve the Government's necessi
ties growing out of the- war Tho
greater the number of certificates-Issued'
In anticipation of taxes nnd taken by
tho banks, the smaller the amount of
certificates to bo Issued In advance of
and Fifty Liberty Loan, an announce
ment of a neW offering of these certifi
cates awaiting the outcome of the sale
of tax certificates. The latter possess
the advantage of avallabllltyvfor public
distribution, while the former usually
are retained In the portfolio of. the bank
or are wed In new borrowings from the
reserve bank. .

Washington, Nov. 6. Despite' pearo
prospects "prices generally throughout
the United Slates are showing a ten-!
oency toward a further upward move-,
ment," according ts tne f ederal Reaervi
Board's monthly review to-day of bus!
iness conditions as reported by agent:
in eacn Federal reserve district. I
creases are particularly noticeable l
commodity lines not affected by t!
uovernment s .price fixing proirnmme.
Many manufacturers and other pro
ducers are reported following a conserv
ative course by keeping only small stocks
on hand In preparation for newbuslneVs
conditions after the war. r
litems prices and credit Inflation, fJha
board pays, must bo opposed by strlcxly
personal economy. Despite war econolmy
Propaganda it appears, says the boavd,
"that many classes, of the population are
sun spending their 'current Incomes- in
freely as ever, notwithstanding tho f.&t
uut prices to-day are at n record fig'.
Because they have not yet embraced tlno
national duty to save as a personal Ah
ligation."
The board's explanation goes Intgfde
tall to show that bank loan foriffpuij
poees other than short time commercial
transactions are becoming tMeadlly
greater In volumo and In pro'lAUon to

Increases In prices.

EAKNINQ STATEMENTS.
Fixed Prices May Continuo
Months After tho War to
Stabilize Industry.
The question uppermost In the minds
of those Interested In the steel Industry
Is the degree with which demand for Iron
and steel products will diminish now that
peace Is In sight, according to the weekly
review of the iron Ag. Of minor Interest
Is the imomoial advice that pries fixing
by tho Government will continue for six
months after peace. The Iron Ag says :
How fast and. how far the war de
mand for Iron and steel will now fall
off Is the uppermost question In the In
dustry. Tha shortening of the pro
gramme of shipyard extensions was the
main feature' last week. Of greater sig
nificance are the moves, made this week
In the reduction of munitions and ord
nance orders, now tha; peace Is mors
plainly In sight
"In barbed wire a virtual cancellation
of 22,000 tons for Great Britain and 85,-
000 tons for Italy Is reported. France
was to receive 60,000 tons In the first
half of 1919, and both this and a 80,000 1
ton contract for wire rods for France
have now been held up.
"Steel lrorks and rolling mills may be
nearer the end of their work for shell
steel than Is commonly thought, even
though the war go-on for soma month.
"Considerable shell steel is still on the
books for tha Allies, and the first can
cellations are likely to come on' these
contracts rather than those of the
United States Government ,
1
Fixed Prices to Star.
"There is unofficial advice of plans for
the continuance of the price fixing com
mittee of the War Industries Board for
six months after peace Ls declared.'
This Is presumably in answer to In
quiries that have been going to Wash
ington from the steel trade concerning
the future of Government control.
"Influenza defeated the well laid plans
for new records in October at blast fur
naces and steel plants. Pig Iron output
was 3,486,941 tons, or 112,462 tons a
day;) as compared with 3, 418,270 tons for
tho' thirty days of September, or 113,942
tons a day. However, last month's rec
ord Was only exceeded once previous
to September, tho month ' of October,
1916. showing 113.139 tons a day.
"Tho wlro trade may bo, the first to
develop peace activity. After some
months of the withdrawal of Its sales
men from the field the leading wire In
terest has now sent out a considerable
number." ,
The Jrqn Trade Review will say :
"Germany's surrender clearly . having
been made a question only of time by
the stupendous events of the last week
the iron and steel Industry more squarely
Is being brought face to face with the
realities of .readjustment. The bewilder
ing rapidity with which International
affairs have reached their Dresent state-
has Intensified the Initial uncertainty.
ana suspense, oui calmer reflection nas
been exercising a due. measure of re
straint The cardinal fact that" vlrtuil'y
every ton of Iron and steel now being
produced contlnues'to be, 'demanded for
war or essential purposes is a steady
ing Influence. - ,
Dlsr Iron Order From England.
"Trade fears are not those of the effects
of a peace, but of the uncharted period of
transition from a war to., peace basis.
Authoritative expressions from Washing
ton show that the situation already Is
receiving consideration In the highest
circles. The belief has been strength
ened that present Governmental regula
tion will be extended In some form to
stabilise trade conditions after peace Is
made. - The 'vital necessity of maintain
ing production at high speed continues
to be sounded by the Government Great
Britain Is negotiating through the Gov
ernment for 7SO.O0O tons of basic Iron
for delivery over the first half of 1915.
This la probably the largest single In
quiry ever put before American Iron
producers.
"The sub-committee on iron and steel
scrap sticks to Its belief that there will
be enough scrap to supply the steel In
dustry during the coming winter. Tha
only doubt Is In the case of cast scrap.
due to tha fact that a number of fur
naces have been switched from foundry
to stcelmaklng iron, with a consequent
Increased demand for cast scrap. Al
though the supply of .scrap has not en
larged any. the outlook for peace has
made It much easier to purchase scrap.
The United States Railroad Adm,lnlstnw
tlon has put out an Inquiry for 2.000
hopper cars for the Virginian Railway,
and Is expected to make Inquiry for
some locomotives.
"The steel trade watches with Inter
est for the revisions to existing vessel
contracts which are to be made by the
United States Shipping Board. It is
teamed that the Shipping Board will
concentrate on the production of large
vessels, since these are the only kind
that will be of valuo In International
trade competition after thewar. Hven
(he 7,600 ton and 8.000 ton vessels
which are being turned out at Hog Isl
and fall short of the -Ideal. The read
justments In contracts, thereice, will
be drastic and It Is not unlikely that
until they are completed considerable
tonnage may be held up at the mills
until they receive new schedules of
specifications."

CHEMICAL CO. STOCK
Bankers' SynrtJcnto Will IJn
dcnvrlto Offering of Aracr- .
ienn Common.
Announcement was made yesterday
that Lee, Hlgglnson & Co. and Ilayden,
Stone & Co. have agreed to form syn
dicate to underwrite an offering of up
ward of 310,000,000 of American Agri
cultural Chemical Company common
stock.
The new shares' will be offered to hold
ers of common and preferred stock at
par on the basis, of one-rifth of their
present holdings All shareholders of
record at the 'close of business on No
vember 14 will be entitled to subscribe to
the new stock on or before November 29.,
Each shareholder of record will have the
right to take new common stock on the
basis of one share of new for every fire
stiares of common or preferred held.
Any part of tho offering that Is not
taken by the shareholders will be dis
posed of or taken by the underwriters.
The company now, has- outstanding a to
tal of 347,155,300 of preferred and-com-.
mon stocks, consisting of 327,650,200
preferred and 319,05,100 of common.
Blued on the amount of preferred and
common shares outstanding the total
amount of new common Imued would bo
at least 39.431,000, but this fa rxpected
to be enlarged- to perhaps, nearly $11,
000.000 by subscriptions from converti
ble bondholders, who may convert their
bonds into stock and thus 00 entitled to
subscribe to the new offering.
Robert 8. Bradley, chairman of the
board of directors. In a letter to share
holders showing tho financial position of
the company and giving tne reasons for
the proposed IssuonceVf stocks," says t
"It ls a matter for congratulation that
the excellent financial standing of the
company enables It to obtain this new
capital permanently through the sale ot
Its common stock,, and thus to strengthen
Its position by1 a large reduction in notes
payable.
"Tho enormous demand for all farm
products throughout the world has nat
urally had a stimulating effect upon the
fertiliser Industry, and has led to a
greater use of fertilisers 'not only be
cause they produce greater crops of bet
ter' quality, but also because they con
servo labor by Increasing the yield per
aero. This situation Is likely to continue
long after the war ends, as our farmers
are becoming educated to the advantages
of more scientific and enonomlcal agri
culture." .
Mr. llrndloy In directing the attention
of shareholders to the need of additional
working capital points to the fact that
current liabilities are now 321,105,101,
compared with a net working capital of
331,693,313, whereas current liabilities In
1913 were only 31,026.977, compared with
net working capital of $28,716,934. Cur
rent liabilities In 1917 were $6,627,247.
against net working capital of $30,737,
