May Total Well Above 1936.
Hits All-Time Peak for

BY EDWARD C. STONE.
Indicating further steady improve
ment in business conditions in Wash

In May were higher than in May, 1936,
and also for any May on record.
Receipts at the city office totaled
$588,407.43 in comparison with $572,
633 in May a year ago, an increase of
$15,774.43 or 2.75 per cent. This was
ft direct turnabout from April of this
year when postal receipts for the first
time since recovery started were
alightly lower than in corresponding
thonths.
The gain of postal returns in May
ftnd the first five months of 1937 is
In line with reports on bank clearings
In the Capital which revealed a pick
up of $9,702,227 over May, 1936, and
»n advance of more than $81,000,000
In the first five months of the present
year compared with the like months a
year ago.
For their value in reflecting business
trends in the Capital, postal receipts
In the first five months of 1937 are
compared with the same months in
1936:

Roberts Convention Speaker
I. J. Roberts, assistant cashier, Riggs
National Bank, addressed the national
convention of the American Institute
of Banking in St. Paul today, accord
lng In dispatches,
on “Personnel
Training for Bet
ter Public Rela
tions.”
Banking is es
sentially a busi
ness of human
relationships, he
declared, and the
measure of a
bank's success is
determined by the
extent to which
it recognizes its
obligations to so
ciety, the sincer
ity and intelli

will of the public. He emphasized the
IPord “merit” because public confi
dence cannot be bought but must be
perned. It cannot be attained quickly
OP by artificial methods, he asserted.
In recognizing these facts, he added,
fcanks have lagged far behind public
utility and merchandising organiza
§ons, which for many years have em
phasized the value of developing
Scientific methods for handling their
public relations problems.
The bitter experience growing out
#f the depression aroused the banking
profession to the necessity of dispell
ing public misunderstanding of the
proper functions of banks and of their
methods and policies, Mr. Roberts said.
In outlining the development of a
practical course of procedure, he de
picted most fully the methods used by
the Riggs Bank in the last two or
three years in arousing among the per
sonnel a sense of the importance of
the problem, and gave an outline of
the great number of ways by which
a new deal in public relations has al
ready been brought about by this
bank.
Mr. Roberts said the meetings of
the entire staff to hear talks by offi
cers and other experts have proved so
beneficial that the present plan will
be made permanent.
nanKers uei i^iveiy uicums,
The Washington delegation at the
American Institute Convention got an
unexpected greeting on arrival at St.
Paul. There is a strike on In the
hotel where they are staying. Means
tome long walk-ups, very irregular
meals, If any, and a lot of extra ex
citement they had not planned for
when they made the reservations.
They found a large number of pickets
parading in front of the hotel, huge
[Placards stating that the hotel was
unfair to organized labor.. The dele
gates are probably finding it a bit dif
ficult to concentrate on banking and
high finance.
Oversubscribed Six Times.
Forecasting that the Treasury’s
1800,000,000 note offering would be
oversubscribed six times, Secretary
liorgenthau announced last night that
books on the issue had been closed.
Subscriptions placed In the mail be
fore midnight will be accepted.
Through 5 p.m. yesterday the sub
scriptions on the $400,000,000 issue of
per cent notes, due September 15,
1939, aggregated $1,788,000,000 and
subscriptions on the $400,000,000 offer
ing of 1% per cent notes, due March
16. 1942, aggregated $1,843,000,000,
Secretary Morgenthau stated.
Price Action Significant.
A significant feature of the stock
taarket in the past month has been
the comparative steadiness of prices
during a period of adverse news de
velopments.
. Price steadiness in the face of bad
hews is a sign of a technically strong
stock market, in the opinion of
Brookmine Economic Service. “After
» reaction, such as occurred in March
ftnd April, apparent symptoms that
Stocks are forming a base for a re
newed advance are (1) resistance to
bed news, and (2) reduced volume of
brading whi-h reflects slackening of
balling pressure. Both of these tend
encies have been in evidence for a
Humber of weeks.”
, > Capital Transit Stronger.
Capital Transit stock sold to the
extent of 180 shares on the Washing
ton Stock Exchange today at 11. This
Is the best price for some weeks. It
Closed with 10*a bid and 11*4 asked.
Washington Railway & Electric pre
ferred again }gd the market in volume
of trading, about 60 shares changing
bands at 110*4, same as yesterday’s
close. Two 100-share lots of Real
Estate Mortgage & Guaranty preferred
moved at 5*4 and 60 more shares
SVa
Capital Traction 5s were in demand
at 88, two $1,000 transfers being re
corded at that figure.
Heard in Financial District.
Both President Roosevelt and Secre
tary Morgenthau in private conversa
tions with visitors have been stating
repeatedly the intention of this Gov
ernment to hold Its gold price at $35
per ounce despite contrary rumors, ac
cording to persons who have talked
with them.
State and municipal financing for
May aggregated $46,172,286 as com
pared with $96,541,554 in May, 1936,
according to the Daily Bond Buyer.
The total for the first five months
of 1937 is $504,717,234, as compared
w^th $516,656,075 for the same period
last year.

BY VICTOR EUBANK. 4
Associated Press Financial Writer. a
NEW YORK, June 8—An upturn
in selected steels, coppers, aircrafts
and specialties imparted a rallying
touch to today's stock market.
Whether buying inspiration was
found in Great Britain's reassurances
she would stick to her non-gold stand
ard platform or whether the generally
sold-out condition of the list brought
belated support, was a matter of argu
ment in the board rooms.
At any rate the price betterment
i was accompanied by no pick-up in
trading momentum and the ticker tape
dragged from the start. There also
were a number of losers at the close,
although few issues were especially
weak.
While business news was on the
cheerful side, strikes in steel and other
industries tended to accentuate wari
ness in the financial sector. But
selling on labor developments appar
ently had dried up appreciably.
Transfers were around 550,000
shares.
ana ruooer iutures recovered
briskly, but cotton continued under
moderate pressure. At Chicago wheat
was up 23b to 33b cents a bushel anc
corn was s8 to 2'i higher.
Although the Treasury's new $800.
000,000 loan was oversubscribed su
times, listed Federal securities mads
little or no headway. Corporation
bonds were mixed.
