Mr. Neville Chamberlain renflirma the British determina- tion to defend Poland. It is reported that Signor Mussolini has been invited to mediate between Britain und Germany. Britain is considering filling the armaments needs of Rumania.
All parties agree that the London market is arm. Our own market neted better to-day, but evidence of an upturn is still inconclusive. Steel mill operations are down 1.2 per cent. The United States Steel Corp's first-quarter output averaged 52 per cent of capacity. A Congressional Committee finds the Tennessee Valley Authority's rates an honest yard-stick.
Distilling companies are concerned regarding the prospects. of additional liquor taxes pending in Afteen States. The market here was only steady, in spite of the firmness. in London and Singapore.
Farmers' compliance with the Government's agricultural programme is indicated as much larger than in 1938.. COTTON: The Senate has adopted the Bankhead Bill, permitting farmers to re-possess 3,000,000 bates of cotton on payment of 5 cents per pound and a pledge to curtall screage. Quick action by the House of Representatives is indicated.
