US Steel Dividend Voted
" Just After Close
of Market
NEW YORK. March t.-VP-Traders
continued to bid up spe
cialities In today's stock market
while permitting most leaders to
drift-moderately lower.
The best news of the day came
Jnst after the 'close when U. S.
steel directors - surprised ' Wall
street by voting a -dividend of ?1
, a share on the" common, first pay
ment on this issne since December
1137.. Chairman Stettlnins ex-
d 1 a 1 n e d the disbursement "is
based on ' the corporation's earn
tags during recent months."
Previously speculative sent!
mcnt appeared to " hare been de
pressed by a sharp tumble Of the
"free" British pound sterling to
the lowest level on record In
terms of the old gold dollar.
Stock dealings were of a hap
hazard character throughout, with
trends at variance In the major
ity of departments. The Associa
ted Press average of CO stocks fin
ished off .1 of a point at 49.3.
Transfers amounted to 622,700
shares against 694,990 the day
before.
That the dividend action of the
"big steel" board caught the fi
nancial sector napping was shown
by the fact the company's Junior
stack was slightly under water
during the greater part of the ses
sion. It finished off H of a point
at 54 and Bethlehem was 4 in
arrears at 74.
Declines were posted for Chry
sler, US Rubber, Montgomery
.Ward, Anaconda, Allied Chemi
cal. N. Y. Central, and South Por
to Rico sugar. Quiet strength was
exhibited by Brunswick - Balke.
Canada Dry, Sears Roebuck and
Great Northern.

Improved Market Causes
Faster Movement; new
Acreage Estimated
With an Improved onion mar
ket, shipments held to a liberal
TOlnme during last week, accord
ing to the agricultural marketing
service. Oregon shipped 60 cars,
Washington 28 and Idaho 70.
Market prices advanced consider
able and growers received a top
of $1.75 per cwt. net as the week

mon storages."
Reports from the first and sec
ond sections of the intermediate
onion producing states. Indicate
that growera intend to Increase
their acreage this year by 7 per
cent. Important Increases are ex

acreage is indicated for the late
states, or a total of 55,550 acres
in 1940, compared with 57,850

is expected to be 3050 as com
pared with 3200 acres last year.
Washington's late onion acreage

Wheat Pit's Tone
Easy; Prices Down
CHICAGO, March 26.-(;P)-An
easy tone prevailed in the wheat
pit today and prices at times
yielded as much as 1 cents a
bushel.
Prospects of warmer and unset
tled weather in the southwest and
pressure of hedging sales against
purchases of loan wheat depressed
the market. Selling was only mod
erate, but at the same time de
mand was less aggressive than re
cently. Quotations opened fractionally
lower, recovered partly, but then
declined again in the final hour.
May contracts dropping to $1.05
off 1, and July to $1.034,
down 1 cents. Weakness at
Minneapolis, where prices were
off as much as 1 and finished
at their lows, contributed to the
late downturn here.
Wheat here finished
off. May $1.05-, July $1.04
