speculative factors that play such a
vital part in sudden price changes in
Wall Street.

selling at 111%. Capital Traction 5s
ended the quarter at 92% after being
as high as 97. City & Suburban first

at 14% and ended the quarter at 14.
The Potomac Electric Power preferred

have Washington Railway & Electric
preferred and common, the common
last selling at $725 a share. Miscel
laneous stocks have behaved well, al
though most of the quotations were
not as high at the end of the quarter
as earlier. In addition to price firm
ness in most issues, trading volume
has also been upward.

^enthusiastic over the two-day session.
Chester T. Lane, assistant general
^counsel of the Securities and Ex
Change Commission, gave a most in
formative talk from a legal stand
j point on some of the important
regulations and policies in the secur
ities act. Many of the rules over
Which there has been more or less
controversy are clearly stated in the

native in the manner in which they
are administered, he said. He went
into detail on the rules governing
prostectuses governing new issues,
registration, rules governing the dis
tribution of additional securities of
en issue of long standing.
His talk was followed by a long ;
round-table discussion in which he i
answered many timely questions. At j
the same time the investment dealers j
informed him of some of the most i
difficult problems with which they
have to deal and which would make
their point of view more clear to the
commission.
Railroad Situation Reviewed.
Col. Henry W. Anderson, co-receiver
for the Seaboard Air Line Railroad,
gave a comprehensive summary of the
present railroad situation. While men
tioning the enormous taxes paid by
the railroads, he took occasion to state
that some of this tax money is used
lor the construction of highways
"which are used only by automobiles
and trucks which are in direct com
petition with the railroads.
He believes the Interstate Commerce
Commission has done a remarkable
gob in regulating the railroads, but
also considers this regulation should
be expanded to other carriers until
unfair competition is checked. He
also sees this regulation as needed in
the steel, motor, oil and all other in
dustries which are so closely tied up
With public -welfare.

cutting government expenses in his
State and the resultant great im
provement in the standing and prices
of State, municipal and county bonds.
