PAGE TWENTY-SIX 'AKRON BEACON JOURNAL TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1940 Trade Winds General Motors Sells Auto Sales Up Gasoline Stores Mount By LOUIS M. SCHNEIDER Beacon Journal Financial Writer BENDIX-Over the past two months General Motors sold, at private sale, 100,000 shares of its Aviation Corp. investment holdings. It now holds only 000 shares. The 500,000 block was acquired when Bendix was formed 1939.

G.M. was compelled to liquidate 100,000 shares of Bendix stock because of an open agreement which reads that if G.M. owns more than 400,000 shares of Bendix there is a free exchange of patents. G.M. sold to protect its patents in the Allison liquid-cooled airplane engine.

But the sale of the stock doesn't weaken G.M.'s interest in Bendix management. The were with four investment trusts, via Glore, Forgen at an average $30, on the understanding prichato the stock be held for investment only. Blue Ridge Corp. and Chicago Corp. were the largest buyers.

PRICE WAR prices in the electrical refrigerator' lines will soon take its small appliance manufacturers. They can't operate at a narrow profit in competition with national brands. They will confine output to gas refrigerators and underprice electrical makes. This, say those in the trade, may be tho start of a much-feared price war similar to that which swept the radio field a few years ago. GLASS--The glass industry is in a downward operating trend.

February output will not equal the high pace of January which was off sharply from the December peak production. And March output is expected to show a ther decline. On the whole, however, the glass industry's first quarter operating pace will show an improvement over the 1939 like period. AUTO SALES -February retail automobile sales show a contraseasonal advance. There are good reports from Chrysler, Ford, Studebaker and General Motors, especially in the Buick -slung models.

In retail auto circles, however, fear is that should the business recession run through the spring months, a decided dip will be evident in the good second-quarter selling period. GASOLINE The bureau of mines estimates that March gasoline exports will run at 3,400,000 barrels. surprised the trade because about This, 000 barrels less than the 000 March, 1939, export total, and is in the face of anticipated warbuying scramble. As previously reported here, the gasoline situation is top-heavy. Present stocks are almost 000 barrels.

A year ago at this time the figure was 82,998,000. At that time the trade said it was 000,000 above requirements. PRICES WEAK--The huge gasoline supply is ascribed to the large refinery buying from crude oil producers. All anticipated a flood of war orders. But they failed to materialize.

Due to signed agreements, crude flow continued high with refinery operations unnecessarily averaging 83.6 per cent of capacity. The storage situation is tight. It is so bad that gasoline will soon have to be stored in the ground. Some believe the condition is due to unregulated production in Illinois. But the better informed say it's due to the negligible amount of foreign business.

In the meantime, gasoline prices are weakening-with no signs of relief ahead. NYLON HOSE Du Pont spokesmen warn that stockings can develop a "run" just as does average silk hosiery. But since the Nylon thread 18 stronger than silk, chances of "runs" are lessened. Gotham offer hosiery for public sale sometime in May. Only 15 per cent of amounts ordered will be delivered to retailers.

(P)- The girls of Sargent hall were wide-eyed with excitement last night when a squad of policemen searched every nook and cranny of their dormitory. The reason for this extracurricular thrill stemmed from a report that a man was seen entering one of the fire towers.

The University of Pennsylvania's directress of women dismissed the affair with Amazonian firmness: "The man had more to fear than the girls because 150 women are their own protection." GOODRICH REPORTS 86,628,746 PROFIT Earnings Equal $3.50 Per Share After Charges; Sales Up 24 Pct. With a 24 per cent increase in sales, the B. F. Goodrich Co. in 1939 had net earnings of 746, officers of the company reported today.

The earnings were equivalent to $3.50 a share on the outstanding common stock after all charges, including taxes and provision for preferred dividends, they said. In 1938, the net income had been $2,240,119, which after deductions for other purposes, was only equivalent to 14 cents a share. Sales Reach $135,735,562 Sales for last year amounted to $135,735,562, as compared to 439,262 in 1938. In both years, net sales of certain subsidiaries were not consolidated. Goodrich Makes Report The annual report was made public by David M.

Goodrich, chairman of the board, John L. Collyer, president, following a directors' meeting late yesterday in New York. They pointed out that certain subsidiaries in belligerent European countries, representing an investment $1,519,463 and estimated to have a small profit in 1939, are not consolidated in the 1939 statement. The 1938. report was on a completely consolidated basis.

Taxes continued to be an increasingly serious problem for the company, the report said. In 1938, direct charges amounted to approximately $7,300,000. This increased in 1939 to $10,258,000, equivalent to 7.6 per cent net sales or $7.87 per share of common stock outstanding or $302 per employe, it was said. Discussing the company's plants, the report said that the new molded goods plant at Clarksville, was put into operation in the latter part of 1939. The textile plant Silvertown, has been equipped to produce a wider variety of textiles.

The A report said that interest savings amounting to about $330,000 annually had -been achieved through refunding of its $18,319,200, 6 per cent debentures on Aug. 2 with $18,000,000 of 3 per cent bank loans and $1,055,082 in cash on hand. Inventories at the year end, the report said, amounted to 383 and quantities of raw materials on commitment for future delivery are considered normal. Raw materials on hand and material content of unfinished and finished goods as well commitments for future deliveries were valued at the lower of cost or market. The report pointed out that 2,500 Goodrich employes have had 20 years or more of continuous service.

Declaration of the regular dividend of $1.25 a share on the $5 cumulative preferred stock for the first quarter of 1940 was announced at the meeting of the directors.
