medium priced rail loans blazed the
way for an advancing bond market
today.

point—some much more—near the
start of the final hour as prices
extended the advances chalked up
in the first session of the new year
Western Union 5s spurted nearly 2
on the Federal Communications
Commission's proposal for a tele
graph system consolidation.
The market seemed to draw
strength largely from a cessation
of the recent year-end liquidation
plus re-investment demand and the
ceaseless accumulation of unem
ployed funds in hands of institu
tions and individuals.
Some Scandinavian issues ex
panded their previous rally. Norway
4s rose a point. United States Treas
ury loans most!.' pointed a little
higher in keeping with the main
trend.
Conspicuous gainers in the cor
porate list included Pittsburgh
West Virginia 4’2s. Nickel Plate 4’2s
International Telephone 5s, Boston
& Maine 5s. General Steel Casting
B'2s and International Railways of
Central America 5s.

U. S. Chamber Group
Asks Revision of
Securities Ad
Committee Advocates
Repeal of 'Stringent'
Provisions
By the Associated Press.
A United States Chamber of Com
merce Committee said yesterday that
new investment capital would flow
into employment-creating enterprise
if "the stringent and repressive pro
visions” of the Securities Exchange
Act were removed.
Elimination of those provisions,
the Industrial Financing Commit
tee said in its annual report, would
not affect “essential objectives” of
the law. It recommended that the
1933 and 1934 acts be consolidated
into a single statute.
Among other recommendations
were:
The prospectus required in con
nection with new issues of securities
should be shortened and simplified.
The waiting period after the filing
of registration statements should be
eliminated.
The right of civil action arising
from a “material misstatement or
an omission of material facts” in
the registration statement and pros- j
pectus should be allowed only upon \
proof that the damage resulted from i
a, "material misstatement or an
omission of a material fact.”

Steel Industry Sees
Signs for 1940
As 'Auspicious'
Fourth-Quarter Output
Highest on Record
For Three-Month Period
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Jan. 3.—The steel
industry and some of its principal
consumption outlets is heading
into 1940 under the most auspicious
circumstances since 1929, Iron Age
said today in a weekly survey.
The review included 1937 in this
forecast, which was the* best year
for steel business in the last decade.
“Steel production in the fourth
quarter of 1939 was about 16,000.000
gross tons, the highest on record
for any three-month period," the
magazine said, “while automobile
output was about 1.163,000 units,
which is slightly above the previous
peak for the fourth quarter of a
year, established in 1926. Pig iron
production is holding at a high
level; additional furnaces have gone
into blast during December. * • •
“Operations this month will be
uujMerea somewnat dv tne necessity
faced by some steel companies for
rebuilding badly-depleted stocks of
ingots and semi-finished steel. • * •
"A favorable indication is that
the decline in prices of steel scrap
over the last three months has ap
parently been checked. The Iron
Age steel scrap composite price has
been reduced every week since the
first week of October until this week,
when it remains at last week’s figure
of $17.67. * * •
“Ingot production this week has
rebounded from the low of 74 per
cent in Christmas week to 86 per
cent.”
