NEW YORK. Dec. 20.—Gains of
major fractions to a point or two
in a group of foreign dollar bonds,
principally Scandinavian. over
shadowed movements in other divi
sions of today's market.
A feature in afternoon trading was
A sudden pickup in Porto Rican
American Tobacco 6s. stamped and
unstamped, which advanced 5 to 6
points.
Brokers said new buying interest in
• such issues as Norway 6s, 4s and
4'2s. find City of Oslo 412s appar
ently was based on belief of trad
ers these loans were due for at least
a technical comeback of some pro
portions after their lengthy dip fol
lowing outbreak of the Finnish
Russo War. The decision of the
Allied War Council to aid Finland
as well as the $100,000 contribution
to that republic by Americans, cre
ated a better view of the "North
country" prospects, it was said.
Domestic loans in demand at ad
vances of fractions to more than
a point included Loew's 3'2s, Penn
sylvania General 4'2s, Union Pacific
3‘2s and Utilities Power <fc Light 5s.
Unchanged to a shade lower were
Nickel Plate 4'2s, Southern Pacific
4’2s. Walworth 4s. International
Hydro Electric 6s. and Erie 5s.
United Slates Government kept in
the background with lasses of 2-32
to 4-32 of a point, offset by gains
up to 11-32 for some of the' longer
term treasuries.

Electric Production
Reaches All-Time
High for Week
Output Is IT.6 Per Cent
Ahead of Comparable
Period for 1938
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Dec. 20.—Electric
power output, at record levels for
the last few months, mounted to a
new all-time high during the week
ended December 16, the Edison
Electric Institute reported today.
TVip Int.pcf tntol nf 9 find rtfifl
kilowatt hours was .7 of 1 per cent
ahead of 2.585.560,000 in the. pre
ceding week and 11.6 per cent above
2,332.978,000 in the comparable 1938 I
wreek.
Despite the record outturn, the j
gain was less than seasonally ex
pected. Hence the Associated Press 1
Power Index, based on 1929-30 as
100, declined to 127.8 from 129.1 in
, the previous week. A year ago the
| index, which is adjusted for sea
; sonal and long-term trend, was 116.8.
Range for recent years follows:

Downward Trend
Of Steel Production f
Goes Unchecked
Survey Shows Stocks,
Except Tin Plate,
Are Not Excessive
B> the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Dec. 20.—A check of »
steel inventories in the hands of
consumers and distributors showed
no excessive stocks, with the pos
sible exception of tinplate, Iron Age
said today in a weekly survey.
Stocks of tin plate in the handi
of can companies and mill ware
houses, however, the survey said,
would indicate a rather sharp de
cline in production of this item dur
ing the next several weeks.
The review added:
"The downward trend in steel
orders and specifications which has

weeks has not been checked, but is
assuming no more than usual year
end proportions. While some con
sumers are relaxing pressure for
shipments, presumably because of
inventory and seasonal considera
tions. others are taking steel as
rapidly as mills can supply them.
“Automobile manufacturers are
; pressing for steel deliveries as their
i assemblies reach almost record
breaking totals.”
A decline of 2 points in ingot pro
duction this week to 89.5 per cent
of capacity was attributed by the
magazine principally to curtailment
incident to plant repairs in South
ern Ohio. Some mills were expected
to taper operations as little as pos
sible next week, but a further de
cline in ingot output was looked for .
in view of the Christmas holiday.
The sixth consecutive weekly de
cline carried the Iron Age scrap
composite down to $17.83 a ton. a
drop of 25 cents. Mill buying of

$7,625,000,000
By the Associated Press.
[ The Bureau of Agricultural Eco
j nomics estimated today that Amer
ican farmers received $7,625,000,000
j from marketing of products during
; 1939. This compared with a 1938
! estimate of $7,627,000,000.
j This year's cash income was sup
| plemented. the bureau said, by Goy
' | ernment benefit payments of $675.
000.000 to farmers who co-operated
| with the Federal crop control pro
gram. Similar payments last year
were given as $482,000,000.
1 The 1939 income from marketing
_ represented an increase of 63 per
, , cent during the last seven years,
i The farm income slumped to a low
mark of $4,682,000,000 in 1932 after
climbing to $14,436,000,000 in 1919.
: j The bureau said that this year s
| cash income would average about
j $1,100 a farm, or about $238 a per
I son on farms, compared with $717
and $151, respectively, in 1932.
I Not included in the income esti
mate was the value of products re
' tained for consumption on farms,
i Those products were estimated to
be worth $2,000,000,000. The bureau
also estimated that farmers received
* about $2,000,000,000 from non-farm
sources.
