reported agreement between the O- and the Rockefeller interests is said to have been made in the interest of andther road Both the Rockefeller office and George Schriver vice-president of the refused to discuess the rumors The Alabama senator found fault with the supreme court on three principal- grounds 1 He said the justices 'tire 'partisan in their decisions though supposed to be far above

1926 we find the sales this year for the country as a whole slightly in excess of the 1926 sales 'From all indications the seasonal improve raent should get under way by the end of February BUSINESS ACTIVITY it Is interesting to look over the past six months and see the variations of business activity In August 4 of 1926 business registered about eight per cent above normal It then jumped to twelve per cent above in September while the past four months have varied frtfm thirteen to fourteen percent above Comparing the past past six months with the corresponding six months of the year previous we find1- greater monthly variation August 1925 registered four per cent above nor-mal September and October eleven per cent above while November an December jumped to sixteen per abov normal January 1926 an 1927 each recorded thirteen per cent above normal- OUTLOOK FOR INDUSTRY Automobile: 1927 will undoubtedly be a very competitive one for auto-Tnobile manufacturers- There yi little prospect of lowering production costs and therefore if price cuts are made later in the year as they are very apt to be the profits for many companies will'probably be small OILS: At present there seems to be a well balanced position between supply and and no burden some stocks have appeared Prices are firm and probably will remain so fo a considerable time Record consumption is looked for this year which with only normal supplies on Jian should cause earnings to break a previous records CHAIN STORES: Earnings for the past year showed nearly a twenty per cent increase bver those for 1025 according to the reports already is sued While 1927 promises to be profitable one for the chain stores their earnings will probably not be greatly in excess of the 1926 ecorc TEXTILE: The situation particu arly in the cotton manufacturing branch is slowly improving and while continued Improvement is indicated it is doubtful if earnings will show any material expansion until goods prices become stabilized UTILITIES: For the past yea the earnings -of power and light companies have expanded'steadily While there is nothing to indicate any immediate contraction the probability is that furthe gains will not he as pronounced as they have been How- ever profits of gas companies should tontinue to show substantial increases ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT: Manufacturers of heavy power plant ports today
