Reflect the Improving Trade
Conditions and Greater
Electricity Demand.
BY EDWARD C. STONE.
Reflecting constantly improving
business conditions in the Capital, as
well as an increased demand for elec
tricity because of exceptionally bitter
Winter weather, the January financial
report of the Potomac Electric Power
f!r> filed with the Public Utilities
Commission, reveals a sharp increase
In net income of $41,068.35.
January net income totaled $445,
S06.30 in comparison with $404,237.95
In January, 1935, making a per
centage gain of 10.16. The percentage
figure is of special interest owing to
the estimate already made be na
tional authorities that this year’s elec
trical demand for the whole country
will be 7 per cent better than last
year. The Potomac Power figure for
the first month of 1936 is far ahead
of the semi-guess put out on national
probabilities'.
Operating revenues totaled $1,257,
837.56, an increase of $91,739.06, or
nearly 8 per cent over January, 1935.
At the same time revenue deductions
for operating expenses called for
$721,732.11, an advance of $42,416.24,
or 6.24 pier cent.
Net operating income amounted to
$536,105.45 in January, 1936, a sub
stantial increase of $49,322.82 or 10 per
cent. Non-operatihg income was
slightly lower than a year ago. De
ductions from gross totaled $99,146.
77, up $6,421.87, or nearly 7 per cent.
The notable gain in Potomac Pow
er’s net earnings is in line with in
creases in January net earnings al
ready reported to the Utilities Com
mission by the Washington Gas Light
Co., Georgetown Gas Light Co. and
the Washington Rapid Transit Co.
Collections Lag in District.
Collections in Washington depart
ment stores in January were slower
than in other fifth district cities, the
Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond
reported today, 27 per cent of receiv
ables due the first of the month being
paid. Payments during the month in
the whole district averaged 30 per cent,
Richmond leading with 34.7 per cent,
fololwed by Baltimore with 31.5 per
cent.
As previously noted, retail trade in
Washington was 143 per cent better
than last year. It was up 13.3 per
cent in Richmond and 8.1 per cent in
Baltimore, with an advance of more
than 11 per cent in the whole area, the
report covering 51 department stores.
Stocks on hand in Washington stores
were 8 per cent higher than at the end
of January, 1935, 7 per cent higher in
Richmond and 4 per pent higher over
the whole territory. Stocks on hand
were lower in all cities than at the end
of December, off 3.4 per cent in the
Capital.
Building Officers Banquet.
Members of the District of Columbia
Building and Loan League, which is
composed of all the building and loan
associations in the city, held their sixth !
annual banauet at the Mayflower Hotel
last night, with an attendance of more
than 400, including many guests.
Commissioner Hazen was present and
•poke briefly.
In the enforced absence of President
Robert E. Buckley, Vice President Ar
thur G. Bishop presided. George H.
O'Connor acted as master of cere
monies during an unusually fine enter
tainment program, which had been
arranged by Fred A. Smith. The eve
ning concluded with dancing. Mor
ton Bodfish of Chicago was among the
special guests introduced. He brought
enthusiastic greetings from the na
tional league.
The Banquet Committee consisted
of Rudolph W. Santelman, Fred A.
Smith, William S. Quinter, Charles W.
Schafer, Frank J. Ehlers, William
Camp and Raymond K. Espey. Carl
Bergmann, president of the local asso
ciation last year, was among those at
the head table, as was Edward C. Baltz,
now second vice president of the na
tional association. The record at
tendance shows how the District
League has expanded in the past year
or two.
Pennsy Dividend Tomorrow.
Stockholders of the Pennsylvania
Railroad will tomorrow receive checks
for the 203d dividend in the company’s
history, $13,167,696, to be paid to
226,336 stockholders.
The summary of the annual report
contains a condensed income account,
which shows that the railway operat
ing revenues were $367,812,186, an in
crease over 1934 of 7 per cent. All of
the principal items of revenue except
express showed increases, passenger
earnings registering a gain for the
second successive year.
Railway operating earnings increased
7 per cent, chiefly due to higher wages
and fuel costs. Taxes continued to
gain and absorbed nearly 7 cents out
of every dollar of revenue. Net in
come for the year was $23,849,798, an
Increase of $2,215,833.
Today’s Trading on Exchange.
Mergenthaler Linotype sold at 4714

today, a fractional gain over the last
previous transfer. Real Estate Mort
gage & Guaranty preferred figured in
a 100-share sale at 4% and Washing
ton Loan & Trust Co. stock sold at
225. In the bond division, $1,000 Po
tomac Electric Consolidated 5s changed

quirements of the purchase fund for
