NEW YORK. Aug. 15.—Rail and
Utility loans got out in front of a
briskly advancing bond market to
day.
Volume expanded and at the start
Of the last hour gains of fractions
to a point or so—and some even
more—were plentiful. Brokers said
recent selling pressure had decreased
noticeably.
Many observers credited the Ital- !
Ian offer to discuss Danzig with part j
of the lift, but the continued flow of '
business news were also noted.
Most in demand were such issues
as Commonwealth Edison 34s,
Portland General Electric 44s, j
Southern Railway 4s, Western Un
ion 5s of ’60. St. Paul 5s, Pennsyl- i
vania debenture 4'2s of 70 and
Nickel Plate 4‘2s. |
United States Governments gained j
an outside of 10-32d point on slim
volume.
Italian loans were well supported
in the foreign section, government j
7s added nearly 2 points and Milan
6'2s more than a point.

can dollar creditors of the suspend
ed banking house of Mendelssohn &
Co. fnclude the New York Trust
Co.. $8,000,000: the Manufacturers
Trust Co.. $4,000,000; the Chemical
Bank & Trust Co.. $2,000,000. and
the Chase National Bank, $1,000,000.
it was disclosed today.
Loans which had been made by j
New York banks to Mendelssohn & I
Co. were in all cases fully secured
by stock exchange collateral, it was
said at the various banks today.
While the amounts in the list of
creditors given out at Amsterdam ;
were as of last Friday, w’hen the
bank suspended, it was understood
they since had been reduced in many
cases.
Although the New York Trust Co.
appears as the largest creditor, the
entire sum was not advanced by
that bank alone. It headed a syn
dicate of seven banks, six of which
are located in other cities.
The indebtedness to the New York
Trust Co., it was learned, had been
reduced to $3,000,000 and that to the
Manufacturers Trust Co. to $660,000.

By the Associated Press.
Daily average sales of variety
stores for July were about 3 per cent
T above the dollar volume of July last
year, the Commerce Department
estimated.
The dollar value of total sales for
the first seven months of 1939 was
about 4 per cent above that for the
comparable figure of 1938.
Sales declined from June to July
by less than the seasonal count.

Railroads to Change
Demurrage, Storage
Rules October 1
Receivers of Freight
To Get More Time
For Moving Goods
By the Assoclsted Press.
The Association of American Rail
roads announced yesterday that ef
fective October 1 it would revise its
demurrage and storage rules so to
give receivers of freight a longer
period for removal of goods from
railroad terminals.
The association said the changes
were made at the suggestion of
the regional shippers' advisory
boards. the National Industrial
Traffic League and individual ship
pers and receivers of freight.
One amendment will permit a re
ceiver of less-than-carload lot
freight five days, rather than the
present four, in which to claim the
freight before it is subject to storage
charges.
Another will permit a consignee of
less-than-carlot freight, who is lo
cated from 10 to 30 miles from the
receiving freight station. 10 days,
rather than 5, in which to claim the
shipment.
At present, railroads permit two
days for loading or unloading a car.

Chemical Consumption
Far Ahead of 1938
Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. Aug. 15.—Seasonal
influences were responsible for mod
erate declines in the movement of
such commodities as pigments, dry
colors, fertilizer materials, but many
other chemicals found a ready mar
ket in the past month and opti
mistic views are held generally both
regarding the current tonnage
movement and the outlook for the
next two or three months.
The preliminary index of Chem- !
ical and Metallurgical Engineering
! places chemical consumption in July
at slightly above 116. which com
pares with 92.66 for July last year.
Operating rates have been speeded
up this month in some of the large
consuming industries, including ray
on. textiles, rubber, steel and metal
lurgical. glass and coal products.
This points to a rising trend for
the chemical index for August, with
seasonal influences favoring marked
advances in September and October, j
