After having made careful Investigation, your directors are convinced that, in addition to the very profitable business in crude oil shipments, your company should follow the example of the other large producers operating In the same territory and take advantage of the additional profits to be obtained through the extraction of gasoline, foal oil and by products.

Other companies have demonstrated that the refining profits greatly exceed the profits made in the production and sale of crude oil. In view of the fact that your company now has a potential production of over 35,000,000 barrels of oil annually, these plans for diversifying and increasing the company's products need in no way restrict the company's shipments ef Crude oil.

The United States has displaced England and all other pre war creditor countries in supplying long time money for 'the financing of industry' and transportation, P. G. Penny, of New York, told the reserve city bankers hero today.

Mr. Penny, who is vice president of the National Bank of Commerce of New York, delivered his address before the annual convention of the Association of Reserve City Bankers. "During the war dollar exchange has made remarkable progress in dealings in South America and tho Far said Mr. Penny. "It is more readjly negotiated In Japan and China than I any other exchange.

Closely allied to dollar exchange and leading directly to an extension of dollar exchange is what Is known as 'direct For example, we are doing business with Argentina, Greece. Japan and other foreign countries In their own moneys now. Reversely, they quote dollars In their markets and make payments to us in dollars. Prior to 1914 hank acceptances In the I'nited States were unimportant, and we consequently lacked the instrumentality for making dollar exchange important factor in international operations. Since the Inauguration lot the Federal Reserve however, the growth in the volume of bank ac ceptance has been rapid.

On August 31, 1918, the total acceptance liabilities of member banks of the Federal Reserve system were $522,000,000. The total for all banks In the country may well have been $730,000,000 or three fourths of a billion. Of our bank acceptances something over half are employed in foreign trade. 'We must take many a leaf from London's book. Our commodity markets must be made more liquid.

Our stock market must bo prepared to take foreign securities and must deal in a larger list of securities. We, are far behind London In the range and scope of both commodity and stock dealings, although the volume Is large. We need no't feel called upon, however, to extend dollar excange at tho expense of our friends across the water. The recent break In sterling exchange gives America a great opportunity both to aid London and to extend dollar exchange throughout the world. "Whether or not we displace England in tho short term money market in financing the actual shipment of goods from country to country, we have displaced her and all the pre war creditor countries in supplying real capital, or long time money, for the financing of industry and transportation.

To accumulate long time capital we must produce In a year than we consume in a year. In saving capital our people will not merely be making Individual profit, but they will also be performing services both to their country and to humanity of vital sort. Civilization must bo saved from poverty and economic shipwreck. The whole world looks to America." EAST BUFFALO CATTLE KAST HTTFAU), S. March SI.

Tho rennet deadlock in Paris, which expressed itself in further demoralization of French exchange and heaviness of foreign war flotations, imposed additional on the stock market today, though at its worts tne undertone was' uncertain. Publication over the week end nf series of remarkable annual reports. notaDiy tnose of U. S. Steel, Midvale Steel and U.

S. Rubber, probably would have furnished incentives for an extension of the bull movement but for the less reassuring character of the foreign news. Strength was most conspicuous In Isr sues recently under greatest pressure. such as local tractions and other active utilities, including telepgraph and telephone shares. Reason for last week's sharp advance in several of the food stocks was furnished by the proposed voluntary liquidation of the Corn Products Company.

Motors and Rubbers moved counter to the Oils, scoring extreme gains of 1 to 214 points, while Mexican Petroleum and the two Royal Dutch issues denoted sell ing, due in part to latest developments in U. S. Steel recated a point soon after the opening, related shares, including affiliated equipments, also yielding a3 much, but full or partial rallies set In later, the market strengthening on an extensive demand for Leathers and Ship pings Sales amounted to 750,000 shares. A six per cent, ruling rate for call loans was the logical result of last week's further contraction of excess reserves, time funds showing no change. The easier tone of the fractional reactions In minor domestic rails, steadiness of Liberty Issues and strength of utilities measured the irreg ularity of the bond market.
