Reports made to President T. R.
Preston of the American Bankers’ Asso

checks issued in the United States now
conform with the simplified forms pro
j posed by the organization two years
ago to replace the multitude of
heterogeneous shapes and sizes in use,
he announced today in New York.
, Universal adoption of the plan will
* J mean a saving of $20,000,000 a year
in the conduct of the Nation's business.
1 he said, to the benefit not only of bank
ing but general business as well.
* "About two years ago standardized
. checks, notes and drafts began to be
generally adopted throughout the
United States." Mr. Preston said. "This
was due to many years’ work of the
American Bankers’ Association's com
mittee on standardization of checks,
greatly aided by the Department of
Commerce of the United States, to
gether with other organizations.
"Two years ago when the simplified
check formula was first established,
less than 50 per cent of the checks
issued in the United States were even
approximately uniform in size. Since
then there has been a tremendous
I increase in standardization and the
; American Bankers' Association reports
show that more than 85 per cent of all
j checks today are approximately unl
j I*”™ in both type and size. In a few
I unif ormity exists to the extent
j of 100 per cent."

BUYING IS BROAD
ON STOCK MARKET
General Motors and Steel Are
Leaders—Coppers and
Utilities Strong.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Spnci.il I)i«p;i|ch to The Star,
NEW YORK. April 9.—Pronounced
strength and Increased activity in the
railway shares, coppers, utilities and In
dustrial specialties, characterized re
sumption of operations on the Stock Ex
change today, following the three-da)
suspension of business. In no quarter
of the market was any weakness ap
parent and the demand carried numer
3Us favorites to their highest prices.
Although speculative Wall Street had
ample time over the Easter holiday to
consider the hardening tendency of
money rates, it displayed the same In
difference It had recently to this de
velopment. So far as speculative op
erations were concerned the supply of
funds available for stock market pur
poses apparently was as abundant as
ever, and the Issues selected for leader
ship were bid up again with reckless j
abandon.
Steel and Motors Leaders.
General Motors and United States •
Steel led their respective groups, but j
they by no means monopolized interest
and their strength was overshadowed !
| by developments In other quarters.
1 ‘ Last week's conference of Eastern rail
executives had stimulated buying of the j
i shares of roads Involved in the nego
i tiations. Pittsburgh and West Virginia
,' led the group today, advancing into j
, | new high ground for the year. But it
i was the old line dividend payers that ;
, i w-cre the most noteworthy performers. ]
1 Delaware and Hudson and Lackawanna |
, Baltimore and Ohio continued in de- ■
. mand, and Gulf. Mobile and Northern
crossing 60 reached a new top. South
ern Railway and New York Central also
came In for attention.
Anaconda Copper, opening on a block
1 ol 33.000 shares at 71. recorded a jump j
• of 4'a points and was at its highest;
since 1919. It was one of the features ;
of the entire proceedings and has Its 1
1 reflection in the movement of other
copper stocks. There was nothing that,
was not already known to account lor j
the activity in this quarter, which was
1 merely a resumption of the buying
started last week. The coppers were
thought to be behind other industrials,
and with the outlook for higher prices
lor the metal later in the year, leading
producers are likely to report substan
tial Increase in earnings over those for j
the 1927 period. American Smelting &
Refining naturally went along. Greene
Cananea was bid up some 4 points. Cal- 1
umet and Arizona. Kennecott and Mag
ma shared in the advance.
U. S. Rubber Preferred Drops.
Among industrial specialties one of
the chief incidents was the opening
drop of over 6 points in United States
Rubber first preferred, when it changed
hands at 79. it fluctuated within a
range of a point of this figure there- :
after. Its action was a direct response
to the omission of the dividend due at
this time. Rubber common was sym
pathetically affected, although the de
cline was not as sharp.
Local tractions were bid up 1 to more
than 5 points. Interborough Rapid
' Transit the leader. There was nothing
aside from the higher fare prospect to
' account for the strength in both bonds
and stocks of these companies. Utili
ties moved forward sharply, with
' Brookly Edison at its highest for all
time and Brooklyn Union Gas up more
than 2 points across 151.
