Weather Having Less Seri
ous Effect on Trade,
Survey Shows.
BY EDWARD C. STONE.
General business conditions in the
fifth Federal Reserve district, which
Includes Washington, are looking up
ward, despite recent weather condi
tions, according to the latest Depart
ment of Commerce review.
While business in Baltimore was
well ahead of last year, judging by
bank clearings, and Washington made
department store sales gains over the
piCViUUO WCCR., UUM11CW dCCUifi iu nave
been best in the Southern part of the
district below the "bad-weather zone.”
Details from the latest Commerce
summary show:
“Business in the fifth reserve dis
trist recovered losses of previous se
verely cold weeks, but there was no
appreciable margin over last year. In
Richmond bank debits rose to $29.
394,000, against $26,259,000 last week
and $28,960,000 last year.
“While department store sales in
Charleston, S. C.. did not advance be
yond last year’s level, retail trade in
general was 12 per cent better, auto
mooile sales having gained 25 per
cent and furniture 15 per cent. A
sharp rise was also reported in radio
sales. The contest amcng retailers
for the election of a queen for the
forthcoming annual Azalea Festival
served to stimulate business. Whole
sale grocery trade picked up 10 per
cent over previous week. Bank clear
ings receded 13 per cen.. under pre
vious week and 3 per cent under last
year. South Carolina’s fruit and vege
table crop for 1935 has been valued
at $10,000,000.
“Department store sales in Nor
folk gained moderately over the pre
vious and 1935 weeks and, while bank
debits increased over last week, they
receded from the leve. of the com
parable 1935 period. Coal dumpings
were up 20 per cent over last week,
but were 15 per cent lighter than last
year.
“Washington department stores had
5.1 per cent better business than last
week, but the volume receded mod
erately from last year. Bank clear
ings declined 6.5 per cent fiom last
week, but were 22.9 per cent greater
than a year ago,” the review' con
cludes.
Rapid Transit Reports Gains.
The Washington Rapid Transit Co.
has started 1936 with an improvement
in earnings over 1935, the January re
port being filed with the Public Utili
ties Commission today.
The bus company reported operat- j
lng revenues of $41,769.64 against !
536,237.77, a gain of $5,531.87 over j
January, 1935. Operating expenses
and taxes called for $36,381.43. an in- |
crease of $2.840 94 over the same j
month in 1935, leaving a net income
from operations of $5,388.21 against
$2,697.28, a pick-up of $2,690.93.
Gross income was practically the
same as operating net. Deductions
from gross totaled $1,812.11. as com
pared with $1,906.87 a year ago. leav
ing a total net income of $3,643.27. in
comparison with $856.42, an advance
of $2,786.85 over the first month of
1935. The report also reveals a gain
in passenger traffic and a good grip j
on expenses.
Washington Rapid Co. is the con- j
cern which the Capital Transit Co. j
wishes to buy and weld into its own !
service, the price offered having j
caused a lively controversy with the
Public Utilities Commission, being ;
considered in some quarters as ex
cessive.
Insurance Payments Grow.
During 1935 the New York Life In
surance Co. paid or credited $141,602,
272 to living policyholders and $67,
991,240 to the beneficiaries of those
who died* it is stated by Thomas A.
Buckner, president, in the company's
annual statement.
On December 31. 1935 the company
had 2,672,636 policies in force. Tire
amount of new insurance issued by
the company during the year was
$466,356,000. In addition, men and
women paid $40,428,582 for annuities
to provide a guaranteed life income.
fiascos ai me close oi i9jd totaled
$2,243,587,752. This represents an in.
crease of $134,082,528 over the pre
vious year. Liabilities were $2,126,
880,881.
Heard in Financial District.
William J. Flather. one of the vice
presidents of the Riggs National Bank,
who has been connected with the in
stitution for more than half a cen
tury, is confined to Emergency with
double pneumonia. His condition is
considered very serious.
The Senate Banking and Currency
Committee has definitely fixed tomor
row as the date for opening hearings
on a tentative bill prepared by Chair
man Landis of the S. E. C. which
would give that agency the power to
continue unlisted trading activities
beyond the June 1 deadline fixed in
the present law.
New life insurance written in Wash
ington in January was 2 per cent
lower than the amount of business
done in January, 1935, Hartford re
ports state. This is a very different
showing from the average for the
Whole country, which was off 26 per
cent from a year ago.
Virginia Firm Forges Ahead.
The annual report of the Life In
surance Co. of Virginia reveals a
notable upward trend. The Wash
ington agents report that the Rich
mond company had an increase in
Insurance in force of more than $20,
000,000 during 1935. Assets were up
$4,500,000 and the average rate of in
terest earned on investments during
the year 4.54 per cent. Over $370,000
was added to surplus. Payments to

NEW YORK, February 24.—Stock
market prices gave ground today in
relatively dull trading.
While scattered rail equipments and
specialties managed to swim against
the current, most of the recent fa
vorites exhibited a sagging trend. The
reversal was attributed partly to tech
nical influences following the lengthy
and generally uninterrupted advance.
Around the final hour such issues as
Baldwin preferred and common, West
inghouse Air Brake. American Loco
motive, Celanese, Industrial Rayon
and Yellow Truck were up fractions to
a point or more. Losers of as much
included United States Steel. Bethle-,.
hem. Chrysler, General Motors, West-'
inghouse, American Can, Consolidated
Gas, North American. Great Northern,
Southern Facific and Santa Fe.
The late tone was heavy. Transfers
approximated 2,300.000 shares.
