Trade ?and Finance
Development? of the Week
and Their Bearing on
the Outlook
Th? ?took market last weak was
not nuMh ?firfferent from what ?the
Strert flu baen experiencing all sum?
mer lone The professional traders
ware completely In control. They be?
came more courageous on the selling
side and offered stocks freely at the
outset of tha period, applying special
pressure on stocks that appeared vul?
nerable to attack. Their efforts met
with a fair degree of success, even if
no real liquidation was produced, un?
til a point was reached when the mar?
ket became oversold^ which meant that
the outstanding short account had be?
come large and unwieldy. Where?
upon the professionals who had ?old
for the decline began to make repur
! chases and in so doing found it neces?
sary to bid stocks up in order to cover
their requirements.
Such a market as this does not
mean a great deal. Day-to-day price
changes never do mean much even in
an active market. It is rather the
! broad price swings that are significant
! and prophetic. The record of stock
j market performance as it stands to
! date this year shows a progressive de
? cllne in stock values. There have
i been temporary recoveries, but they
have been only brief interruptions in
the general trend. The stock market
began to discount the current slacken
I ing of business before the turn came.
I It will discount industrial stabilization
j before there is concrete evidence of
I that fact. Many observers hold that
j the market is nearing the turning
j point, but few are willing to back up
this opinion with buying orders. Hence
the market mills around and the pro
I fessionals are able to churn stocks up
and down at their bidding.
It seems a wellnigh? hopeless task
to try to arouse enthusiasm in Wall
Street over the immediate outlook for
I speculative securities. For every bull
! there seem to be a hundred bears and
? the latter have most of the logic on
; their side. Making the rounds of the
; brokerage houses where stocks are
\ bought and sold, one finds a disposi
| tion on the part of folk who follow
stocks day in and day out to sidestep
and surround with a high barrier of
qualifications all prognostications re
i garding stocks. One will be told, for
! instance, that there are no reasons
: whatsoever for buying stocks in view
of the innumerable imponderables in
the general situation. But at the same
time one will be advised that it is dan?
gerous to sell stocks at these levels,
I since prices are down anywhere from
I 30 to 60 points from their highs of last
! year. To the man who is not well
versed in the ways of the securities
mart the problem involved in making a
i decision regarding present or future
j commitments is most difficult. It is
i small wonder, then, that the public has
I quit speculation almost en masse and
| that even the professionals, who are
I supposed to know all the fine points of
I ?.be game, are proceeding cautiously.
Much is heard about the wicked bears,
I who are held to be responsible for
' many of the troubles now besetting
i the stock market. No doubt there is
I short selling of a vicious character go
; ing on, especially in the case of spe
! cial issues which are open to concerted
; bear attack. It might be a good thing
? for the Stock Exchange to put back into
operation tha regulations in force
shortly after the United States entered
; the war to stamp out vicious bear raid
i ing. Those were fairly effective then
&nd probably would help now in stop
j ping such practices, which injure real
values and react upon the whole mar?
ket. But if the trend of prices is down?
ward, as it has been for several
months, no rules aimed at the short
sellers will check the movement', for
liquidation will have to run its course
in securities as well as in commodities.
And when the process of deflation is
completed the pendulum will swing
back in the other direction.
The stock market has been and is
still suffering more from the enormous
outpourings of new securities floated
on the wild wave of speculation in
1919 than any other one influence. As
a prominent banker put It recently, the
| market has been unable to assimilate
j the huge mass of not only undigested
but indigestible securities. Only now
are many stocks which were unloaded
upon a gullible public just beginning
to get back to a level somewhere near
their real values. In times like these
seasoned securities are always the best
to own. The newer issues oftentimes
have a way of disappearing from the
trading list.
At the close of last week the aver?
age price of thirty representative in?
dustrial stocks stood at 85.37, after
having fallen on Wednesday to 83.03.
The recovery from the low for the
year amounts to about three points.
The high average of the thirty indus?
trials this year was 110.30, last year,
119.33. The average of ten railroad
bonds maintained its level during the
week.
Investment bankers looked upon the
sole of the New York Central ten-year
7 per cent bonds as a test of the ab
j sorptlve power of the market. Tho
issue was well taken and rapidly over
! subscribed. The success of this offer?
; ing is likely to encourage bankers to
| underwrite other loans which are
: known to be under negotiation. De
i spite the seasonal dullness, the market
; seems ready to take a limited amoupnt
I of new creations in bonds at an at
I tractive rate.
After a week in New York, Jean V.
Parmenticr, who came here as the spe?
cial envoy of the French Minister of
Finance in quest of a new loan, now
has a fairly deflnito idea of tho con
j ditions under which his government
' can borrow funds in the American in
I vestment market. As soon as he re?
ceives cabled instructions from his
chief he is likely to close a deal with
J. P. Morgan & Co. It was officially
stated at the end of last week that the
terms of the loan had not yet been de?
termined. However, observers antici?
pate a $100,000,000 loan running about
fifteen years, in which the bonds will
?
pmy lnter-st at tho rat? of 8 per cent
annually.
. , .j
Call money at 9 per cent, the top
rat? quoted Wall Street borrower? last
week, stood at tho highest level of the
month. It took only comparatively
small government withdrawals from
the banks to force the price up, demon?
strating once more tho inHtabillty and
extreme sensitiveness of the call mar?
ket. The demands for credit of o
really active speculation in stocks
would under such conditions be almost
certain to result in a Bevere squeeze
Stock speculators know this probably
better than any one else and govern
themselves accordingly. Quito aparl
from the stock market phase of th?
money market, there are evidences o?
improvement in credit conditions. Thii
comes mainly from the reloase of bank
ing credits frozen in side-tracked ship
ments. The railroads are beginning t<
function properly again.
Current weakness in the foreign ex
changes, especially sterling, which hai
fallen some 40 cents in tho pound un
der the hieb reached on last spring':
recovery, has been attributed to bcv
eral influences, particularly the po
litical complications in Europe am
the recent turn of affairs in Poland
If the Polish situation had been mainl;
responsible for the weakness one mlgh
have looked for a substantial recover;
following the sudden end unexpectei
reverses administered the Bolshevil
forces in their drive for Warsaw. Bu
no such recovery has occurred, and ac
cordingly one must look elsewhere fo
an explanation of tho continued un
settlement of the exchanges. O
course, this is a season of tho yea
when the outward movement of Amei
ican cotton and wheat runs very heavj
so that the market has been calle
upon lately to absorb an unusuall
large volume of cotton and grain an
grain bills arising out of such tram
actions.
As regards sterling, the English rie
is Interesting. "It is probable," saj
a London observer, "that for the m<
ment we have seen the worst of tl
break in rates and that exchange wil
New York will be more or less stabi
ized at about its present level fi
some weeks to come. But it is equal
probable that as the season progress'
and when the autumn is full upon v
we'shall see the rate decline to Febr
ary's low level. Our progress h?
been rapid during the last s
months; our stability and inhere
soundness ore now at a higher estim
tion in America than at any time sin
the armistice, in spite of alarmi
statements concerning our financial ai
economic position which have recent
found currency. That the rate will eve
tually return to par nobodv doubts, b
it is not so generally recognized th
this will not be for a long time to con
Wo cannot ourselves get back to nc
mal conditions until the recovery
the European countries is an acco
plished fact. Our ultimato aim mi
be to restore tho gold standard, a
the dollar exchange will not return
par till this is accomplished, but
cannot hope to reestablish an effect:
gold standard without reference to 1
economic and financial position of c
late allies and enemies."

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22. ?Furt
liquidation of 9.1 millions in holdi
of United States obligations and of ?
millions in loans based on governm
and corporate securities, accompar
by a larger increase in other loans :
investments, is indicated in the Fedc
Reserve Board's weekly statement

member banks in leading cities.
Holdings of United States bonds si
a decline of 7.9 millions for the w<
while Victory notes on hand increo

cates declined by 7.6 millions. Lo
obtained by United States war obi
tions aggregated 9.7 millions less t
the week before, and loans obtainec
corporate stocks and bonds also
clincd by 13.9 millions. On the ol
hand, all other loans and investme
consisting largely of commercial lc
and discounts, increased by 39.1 n
ions, with the consequence that the
porting banks' total loans and inv
ments, including paper rediscoui
with the Federal Reserve banks, s
an increase of 6.6 millions for the w
Government deposits show a dec
of 7.4 millions, other demand depo
(net) an increase of 69.2 millions
time deposits an increase of 2.5 r
ions. For the member banks in 1
York City a decline in demand

moving of crops.

total loans and investments on
latter date, as against about 12
cent a week earlier. For the New 1
City bnnks an increase under this 1
from 722.4 to 780.9 millions is sh
the ratio of accommodation at the
