By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Dec. 6—The bond
market developed more uniform
strength in late trading today after
a somewhat uncertain forenoon per
formance.

pointed definitely higher as over
the-counter trading got under way
in the new securities involved in the
December Treasury financing pro
gram. All were quoted at a pre
mium above the offering price and
existing obligations had gained as
much as 7-32 of a point at the start
of the final hour of trading in the
regular market.
Corporate hens higher by frac
tions to a point or more included
New York Central 5s. Studebaker 6s,
Western Union 5s, Delaware & Hud
son refunding 4s and International
Telephone 5s.
Foreign dollar bonds were fea
tured by strength in French gov
ernment and Italian municipal

Wholesale Commodity
Index Up Slightly
Commodity price changes were
mixed last week, with advances
slightly outnumbering declines. The
result was an advance in the weekly
Index compiled by the National
Fertilizer Association to 73.3 from
73.2 in the preceding week. A month
ago the index stood at 72.9 and a
year ago at 78 7, based on the 1926
1928 average as 100.
Last week's rise in the all-com
modity index was largely due to
higher prices for foodstuffs, with
the food group average advancing
to the highest point reached since
early September. In the farm prod
uct group a fractional drop in cotton
prices was more than offset by rising
quotations for grains.
A small decline in the index for
livestock and livestock products was
due to lower poultry prices; reliable
livestock quotations were not avail
able because of the stockyard strike
in Chicago.
The only significant decline in any
©f the group averages during the
week was in the index representing
the prices of miscellaneous com
modities. which fell off as a result of
declining prices for hides, cattle j
feed and book paper.

j Wall Street Hears
Carriers May Keep
Lower Fares
Eastern Roads Cut
Rates for Christmas
And Fair Travel
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. Dec. 6.—Wall Street
hears the Eastern railroads, which
are lowering passenger fares for
the Christmas holidays and New
York World Fair travel, may keep
permanently the lower-fare sched
ules when the World Fair is over.
Eastern territory rail fares are now
2 Vi cents a mile for coach and 3
cents for Pullman travel, the high
est in the land. However, special
reductions have been announced for
the Christmas season, and sched
ules posted for 1939 World Fair
travelers chop rates down to as little
as 1 Vi cents a mile for round-trip
coach tickets, or as low as prevail
ing rates in any section of the
country.
Coach Rates Boosted.
On July 25 of this year the East
ern carriers jumped coach rates to
2>i cents a mile from 2 cents, hop
ing revenues yielded up by the
boost would offset any decline in
number of travelers. Results, how
ever, did not come up to anticipa
tions.
August, a vacation travel month,
from the passenger standpoint was
reported as the worst in many years,
and Labor Day business was dis
appointing.
If the Christmas holiday and
World Fair reductions boast busi
ness by any discernible degree ft
it likely strong pressure will be
placed on managements to main
tain the lower rates as a perma
nent proposition, according to opin
ion in railroad circles.
Since the Government turned the
carriers back to their private own
ers after the World War there has
been frequent criticism of the pas
senger fare structure. From 1920
until 1932, when the Nation was
rapidly becoming automobile-mind
ed and bus lines were beginning to
web the country, the railways firmly
maintained the historic 3.6 cents
per mile rate, giving reductions
sparingly and usually only at holi
day times.
Western Lines Lead.
It was late in 1932 that the break
in the 3.6-cent rate came. Western
carriers reduced fares for Chicago's
World's Fair. In December, 1933.
Southern systems swung into line
alongside the Western roads, also
posting reductions. But Eastern
roads remained aloof. However,
special rates were set up for Chi
cago's World's Fair travel, but when
the fair was over back snapped
Eastern tariffs to the 3.6-cent rate.
The Interstate Commerce Com
mission in Washington, holding the
pulse of railway trends, noted pas
senger travel under reduced fares
was climbing in the West and the
South. Finally, in 1936, it ordered
Eastern roads to install basic rates
of 2 cents a mile for travel in coach
es and 3 cents in Pullman cars.
These rates held until July of this
year, when Eastern carriers obtained
I. C. C. permission to advance coach
rates to 2\2 cents from 2 cents.

Manhattan Co. Chairman
Says Uncertainties Must
Be Ended
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. Dec. 6.—J. Stewart
Baker, chairman of the board of
the Bank of the Manhattan Co.,
told stockholders at the annual
meeting today "it is as impossible
for our economic machine to run
indefinitely on money borrowed by
our Federal Government as for an
automobile to run on its self
starter.”
"The present improvement in
business,” he said, "will not con
tinue unless throughout the coun
try men are convinced they are
taking no undue risks in making 1
business commitments and that
they have a reasonable expectation
of profit.”
He said there was nothing so un
settling for business as the prospect
of constant change in laws, and
there recently had been indications
"that the people of this country
would like to see business men re
lieved of this uncertainty.”
“Already it has had its effect on
the business man." he continued, <
"and if he sees further signs that
he is not to be exposed to more ex- '
perimentation. it is my belief that
business activity will increase.”
Baker announced directors intend
ed to declare a special year end
dividend of 10 cents a share on the ;
capital stock.
