Electricity Sales, Retail
Trade and Clearings Show
Rapid Rise.
' BY EDWARD C. STONE.
Leading business barometers indi
cate that Washington is heading for
another year of advancement that will
surpass even the remarkable records
of 1936. The Potomac Electric Power
Co. reports that kilowatt-hour sales
in January totaled 55.008,550, as corner
pared with 52.964.846 in January,
1936, a gain of 2,043.708 kilowatt
hours or 3.86 per cent. These sales
compare with 47,724,426 kilowatt
hours in 1935 and only 41,106.210 in
1934.
Check transactions in the Capital
In January mirrored very substantial
business activity when they totaled
$100,562,038. against $86,990,549 in
January, 1936, only $69,566,923 in the
same month in 1935 and $55,737,297
in 1934.
The department store sales index in
January stood at 100.0, while the same
Index number in January, 1936, was
93.1, in 1935, 81.6; in 1934, 72.3, and
In 1933. 65.7. In 1923, the year upon
which index is based, the figure in
January was 72.9.
January telephone figures tell the
$ame story of business advances, the
number of phones in service being
215,738. against 203.210 at the end
of January, 1936, a net gain of 1,429
telephones. Chesapeake & Potomac
telephone calls averaged 839,424 in
comparison with 861,785 average daily
calls during January, 1936.
» January receipts at the City Post
Office reversed the general trend, the
$577,503 figure being slightly under
the 1936 mark, but above $536,949
postal receipts in 1935 and $488,062
in 1934.
Insurance Firm's Best Year.
The New England Mutual Life In
surance Co., Earle W. Sapp, Washing
ton agent, reported today that new
Insurance paid for in 1936 totaled
$144,800,000. the largest amount ever
written by the company in one year.
Insurance jn force at the close of
1936 also topped previous records with
$1,393,448,000. an increase of $64,
(D00.000. largest single increase since
1S29. The insurance in force is now
106 per cent of the total at the end
of 1931, peak year of insurance in force
fbr all American companies. Assets
rose to $375,000,000, a gain of $32,
000,000 over 1935.
The records of the company show
that the popular desire for privately
financed old-age incomes is growing.
Retirement income forms increased
43 per cent over 1935 and 104 per cent
over 1934.
During the year securities were pur
chased to the amount of $62,000,000,
of which bonds were $59,000,000 and
preferred and common stocks $3,000.
000. Total income from premiums,
interest and all other sources received
by the company was $80,000,000, ex
ceeding all disbursements by $31,
000,000.
In each of the past several years
marked decreases have taken place in
the amounts borrowed by policyhold
ers, the demand for policy loans now
having returned to normal.

the country are now in the soundest

1928. The current figure also shows
an increase of $1,367,602,000, or 4.60
per cent, since June 30, 1936. the date
of the previous call, when there were
5.347 active banks, and an increase
•f $2,845,740,000, or 10.8 per cent, over
fpe amount reported by a,392 active
Itenks as of December 31. 1935.
The total deposits on December 31,
3936, aggregated $27,608,397,000. ex

664.000, or 11.11 per cent, the total
reported as of December 31, 1935, the
controller said, also presenting a del
uge of other figures revealing recent
striking banking progress. i

At the institute dinner Robert V.
Fleming was accorded an ovation
when praised by Second Vice Presi

liant work he has done for the Ameri
can Bankers’ Association and the
Nation’s financial interests. Mr. Ben
son referred to the former A. B. A.
chief and president of Riggs National
Bank as a "great citizen of this city
and ft great American." It was an
enviable tribute to the Washington
banker. As a high official of the
A. B. A., Mr. Benson was also given
a very warm welcome.
Thomas B. McAdams, Baltimore
financier, was another former presi
dent of the A. B. A. who was present.
The 850 members and guests voted

NEW. YORK, February 23—The
stock market back-tracked today lor
losses of 1 to around 5 points.
Wall Street attributed falling ten
dencies principally to fresh nervous
ness over the labor outlook and the
belief in some quarters that exciting
speculation abroad in armaments ma
terials was due to come a cropper.
Fast dealings put the ticker tape
behind frequently in the first hour.
1 The volume lessened later, but picked
| up at the finish. Transfers approxi
mated 2.950.000 shares.
Yesterday’s sensational London up
turn in the price of copper, tin, lead
and zinc buoyed stocks in this line at
the opening, many climbing fractions
to 2 points. The sprint was short
lived, however, as price trends were
reversed in the British market.
Handicapping buying forces wer*’
outbreaks of new strikes, including
one at the Electric Boat plant, hold
ing up construction of new sub*
marines. There was also a “sit-down
move started at the Douglas Aircraft
works. In addition, delegates of th<
16 "non-operating” railway brother*
hoods, representing 800.000. voted tc
ask a wage raise of approximately 20 ^
per cent.
On top of all this, commission hour
observers thought the recent failur
of many high-grade stocks to tak<
part in the selective climb encouraged
traders to shelve commitments and
take a turn on the short side.
Conspicuous shares on the losinr
side were Douglas Aircraft, How\
Sound. United States Steel, Bethle
hem, Republic. Crucible. General Mo
tors. Chrysler, Yellow Truck, Electric
Boat. Goodyear. Goodrich. Montgom-.
ery Ward, Woolworth. American Tele
phone. Western Union, North Ameri
can. Public Service of New Jersey
International Telephone. Santa Fe
