Steel Statomont Published After Closing New York, TuJy 20. Today's stock market continued to drift nlong In the game languid manner ns noted In the recent sessions, The movement of the forenoon was almost an exact reverse of that of the first half of jentcrdoy's session, In that prices showed on in dolent drooping tendency. The halting character of the market was explain able in the logical disposition of the trading element to. await the publica tion of the quarterly earning statement of United States Steel Corporation; also that of the Central Leather Co. Then there was tho message to he de livered thl nftomopu by President Harding on the railroad situation. Host everybody was prepared for u miserable showing by the United States Steel Corporation. A number of esti mates were made as to tho probable figures for the becontl quarter, which rail anywhere from ono to two millions under the requirements for the pay ment of the common and preferred divi dends. The majority of the estimates put the net at from $10.00.0X) to ?li.000,000 The statements published recently by the Lackawanna and He public Iron and Steel Companies were generally accepted as it forecast of what the big Steel Corporation will show. Each of these companies reported de ficits. It was intimated by some, however, that in skimping depreciation and other charges there was a possibility of the quartcrl earnings showing up much better than figured from the standpoint of operations. It requires something like eleven millions for dividends and Interest charges and many were con vinced thi would he about the amount shown. It wns evident, in all events. thnt the bear crowd was quite reluctant to take any chances, and the stock, in consequence, ruled relatively steady. As to tho Central Leather report goasip had it that the quarterly state ment would not only be unfavorable, but tho statlbtlcs would al'o fall to con firm 8ome of tho recent more optimistic statements concerning the "coming back" of the industry. At the same time there wero additional reports ema natlnff from Washington sources to the effect that President Harding In his , message on the transportation problem would incorporate the suggestion of n I reduction in rates as an additional lever for breaking the deadlock in trade. ThU OI course, pill a luucrcui minims on the proposed constructive program for rehabilitating tho country's transporta tion industry, in that It watt pointed out that because of the famished con dition of the roads none of them could fctand any reduction in the present lean Income. necardless of either of these infill - I ences, a moderate bnektet in the mar- i ket was entirely natural In view of the slow ndvanre which has been under way for nearly a mouth, punctuated by ' extreme dullness. Tho furt that nrlces sll'ined buck so easily and with out proeipitatlns a fresh selling move ment gave all indications of a con siderable Improvement In the Inherent position of the general list. There wai some degree of increasing inaction as prices gave ground, as followed tho gradual forward swing of yesterday, Saturday and other preceding days. As might be expected under the cir cumstances, trading was altogether list less and represented virtually little else than the familiar jockeying for position. Slight changes were made at the out set, but with the majority of the more active shares showing advances. These gains, however, were effaced within the first hour, mainly as result of the heaviness shown by leading oil and motor pharos, and samo of the more con spicuous pool stocks. Mexican Pe troleum, Sttidebaker, Bethlehem and Crucible Steel, Wcstlnghouse and American Tobacco were among th heavier srots. There, however, ap peared to be considerable realizing nln In the sugar and rubber shares which featured the recovery in the preceding session. 1000 TOO 300 100 .100 109 190 too 100 TOO 100 900 400 400 A00 too a oo 00 100 200 1009 too 1200 8500 1700 100 too 3700 4S JJ00 H00 10Q 100 MM 0300 1000 100 3100 100 100 too 290 3100 3(00 11400 lOOO 1700 1400 300 200 100 too 100 100 300 100 300 IffOO 300 1200 too 3700 000 800 340 500 500 310 200 00 lllth . .

FOR BANK PRESIDENTS ONLY A MESSAGE from the ,l LONDON " THE line of credit you extend to your customers is largely dependent upon the earnings they show isn't it ? But what assurance have you that your customer's debtors will pay, and make those earnings good? It's one thing to examine the statement of a cus tomer's business, but quite another to be sure of all the accounts owing to that customer. Wouldn't you give your borrowers a better line of credit if each one of them had all of their debtor accounts Insured against failure! You know you would. "LONDON" Credit Insurance will do this for you and your customers. It makes your loans surer, because your borrower, protected by "LONDON" Credit Insurance, is absolutely safeguarded against excess losses. It's worth looking into, right now.
