STOCK PRICES SOAR
IN HUGE TURNOVER
General Motors Leader.
Radio and Cast Iron Pipe
Give Fireworks.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 20.—1 t was an
other day of extravagant speculation on
the Stock Exchange. Prices were bid
up with every appearance of reckless
ness and to the accompaniment of a
huge turnover.
The most important, but not the
most, spectacular. Incident was the rise
In General Motors to a new high level
of 173, the highest at which the $25
par shares have ever sold and so In ef
fect the highest for all time. The ad
vance was fairly orderly, the opening
having been down a point at 167, but
that Toss was soon canceled and the
stock moved steadily ahead. Large
blocks changed hands on the rise.
Radio a Star Performer.
Radio and United States Cast Iron
Pipe were the star performers, how
ever. Radio ran up above 154 from
an initial price of 139 and compared to
Monday’s closing of 137. Apparently
this was a demonstration against the
short Intelests. although it is hard to
see why any but the most stubborn of
bear operators should not have been
eliminated long ago.
Then there was United States Cast
Iron Pipe. This Is the stock that
soared over 28 points yesterday. The
closing price then was 235, in itself a
new high record. When it touched
250 today it was up 15 points more.
There was talk of a “split up” or some
other favorable development, but to
believe that the movement was any
thing more than wild speculation was
a strain on credulity.
Another high-priced favorite was
Rossia Insurance, up 11 points at one
time, likewise at a new record high
Still another was A. M. Beyers There
were many others but these will serve
as samples.
Independent Motors Bought.
The independent motors, most of the
utilities, and a few of the rails were
actvlely bought. Os the motors the
most prominent were Nash, Hudson.
Hupp and the low-priced Graham-
Paige. Collins and Alkman. the busi
ness of which Is closely connected with
the motor car trade. Jumped between
6 and 7 points. _ - •
In the utility group North Ameri
can reached a new 1928 top, and in the
rails Texas and Pacific sold at the
highest In the history of the road.
There was a moderate response by Erie
to the favorable February earnings'
statement. New York Central met
profit-taking early In the day, but
rallied in the afternoon
Interest in the action of United
States Steel centered on the effect of
the announcement that the du Ponts
had disposed of their holdings in that
company. Steel opened lower and
dragged all the forenoon, but in the
second half of the session recovered
above the previous close.

1 Thumb Tacks
; ( Wtm
MR. TUCKER was in |§
the thumb tack —s—^
trade. He had learned \J
pretty much all there is to \ " '~T
know about thumb tacks. So it was natural that, in
time, Mr. Tucker’s profits amounted to a tidy sum.
* This fortune Mr. Tucker sensibly decided to invest
in sound and profitable securities. So Mr. Tucker
went into investment as he had gone into thumb
tacks —profoundly and indefatigably. He spent his
days over financial magazines and economist’s
prognostications and his nights over charts, graphs
? and engineers’ reports.
* I
• | Presently, of course, Mr. Tucker learned something
about investment. But, alas, in the meantime he
had so neglected his business that his customers,
} one by one, deserted him. At length, Mr. Tucker
r did what he should have done in the beginning—
t ■ put away his charts and statistics and turned his
investment problems over to an investment banker.
