PARIS, January 28 (A*).—The Bank of France, attempting to discourage1 borrowing for speculative purpose*, boosted its discount rate from 2 to 4 per cent today. British bankers with whom the gov ernment is negotiating a (250,000.000 loan demanded the. curb on specu lative borrowing. French financial sources declared banks had been "dumping” collateral into the Bank of France for discount with a con sequent heavy drain on the national currency. The first changes in money rates since October 15—also applied to 30 day loans and loans on securities— followed disclosure by informed sources that Georges Bonnet, new French Ambassador to the United States, probably will *eck permanent stabilization of the franc, dollar and pound. The bank increased Us 30-day rate from 2 to 4 per cent and the rate on advances on securities from 3 Vi per cent to 5 per cent. The United States dollar closed offi cially in the foreign exchange market today at 21.461,4 francs (4.659 cents to the franc), which was unchanged from the overnight New York rat*.

TULSA, Okla., January 28 —Having muddled along for nearly a month with an incongruous price situation, Mid-Continent oil operators showed a disposition today to make light of the situation. “Your guess Is as good as mine,” was the inevitable answer around the oil offices to the query of what likely would be the way out of the quandry which finds Continental and Bamsdall paying 17 cents more for crude oil than the rest of the majors. There was no more indication of what the majors eventually would do than there was December 4 when Continental announced the advance, effective January 4. Production hit a new peak of 3,200, 000 barrels daily but there was no no ticeable slackening in the demand for crude. The Bureau of Mines’ estimate of market demand for February of 3,068,600 barrels daily, 70,200 barrels daily higher than the December esti mate, was taken as an indication of continued good business. A further weakening in the demand for motor fuel was expected to result from the floods in the Ohio and Miss issippi valleys. There was no change in the gasoline price structure. A brisk demand for kerosene resulted in fractional increases in the tank car price. In the Mid-Continent, drilling work was held up by bad weather, but a number of new pools were opened in Texas. Oklahoma had an active leasing campaign in progress in western and northwestern counties. The Oil and Gas Journal's survey showed 411 wells were completed dur ing the week, 11 more than the week before. ADVERTISING INDEX UP. NEW YORK. January 28 —The gen eral Index of advertising for 1936, re ported by Printer’s Ink, today indi cated a gain of 12.4 per cent over 1935, doubling the gain of 1935 over 1934. The advance was steady throughout the year, the magazine said, except for minor recessions in February, July and August. FIRST TRUST LOANS Long-term REFINANCING . . .
