1910 Expected to Top 1939.
In a letter to the Washington As
sociation of Credit Men, National
Secretary Henry H. Heiman says
that, assuming the absence of an
early peace. 1940 shoulo prove a
better year than 1939 for two rea
sons: There is abundant credit to
finance all real credit needs and a
strong demand for goods is present
because consumer needs were never
fully satisfied during depression
years.
He tempers his views, however, by
finding that business planning must
take into consideration the possibil
ity of a short war and the fact that
when the war does end there will be
an endless number of maladjust
ments to be smoothed out.
He predicts satisfactory Christmas
trade and the usual seasonal decline
after the holidays.

for the bonds was strong, with a
$2,000 transfer at 9534 and a $5,000
sale at 96
Demand for farm products will be
considerably stronger in 1940 as a
whole than in 1939. "largely because
of prospective increases in domestic
business activity and consumer in
comes." the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics forecasts. Increased ex
port demand for a few farm products
is predicted.

'Compiled by the Associated Press.)
By VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer.
i NEW YORK. Nov. 14—Moderate
leanings toward a recovery trend
were exhibited by selected stocks in
today's market.
The list got off to a slow start,
with prices spotty. Buying in steels
and motors then turned the tide and
improvement soon was being regis
tered in other departments. The
pace, brisk for a brief interval,
slackened subsequently under profit
taking and. near the fourth hour,
top gains running to a point or so
were reduced.
Aside from the steady flow’ of
heartening domestic business news,
which markets have virtually been
ignoring for about two months,
brokers could find nothing particu
larly outstanding to stimulate the
speculative appetite. The so-called
j “sit-down” war abroad, it was said,
\ remained more or less of a neutral
xxxairwcu uitiui.
Early support was attributed
partly to the opinions of some Wall
Street technicians that the list was
J due for an upward "correction" fol
| lowing the lengthy string of narrow
dips in the averages. At that, many
traders were still caution-minded
j and inclined to await more definite
signs of the market's next shift.
European security centers held to
a fairly even course. Bonds and
commodities were a trifle uneven.
' Among favored stocks were United
States Steel. Youngstown Sheet,
| Chrysler, Douglas Aircraft. Eastern
! Airlines. American Airlines, Inter
national Harvester, United States
Rubber. Anaconda. American Can,
■ Santa Fe. Chesapeake & Onio and
Montgomery Ward.
Tilting higher in the curb were
Lockheed, Jones & Laughlin, Elec
tric Bond & Share and Aluminum
1 i of America.
| Chrysler was resistant as hopes
' j were renewed this company's laoor
,! dispute, which began October 6
I and has practically halted produc
I tion. would be ironed out soon.
■, The lately listless steels were aid
t fid by the statement of President
. Hook of the American Rolling Mill
before the T. N. E. C. hearing ad
• | l ocating a boost in prices for sheet
' j strip and other flat-rolled products.
There was still a large quest ion -
| mark, though, regarding any gen
| ] eral lifting of quotations In the
, : next quarter.
| Earnings forecasts for the air
! craft makers and transport lines
‘ * helped bolster this division.

Chicago Grain
Bv the Associated Press.
CHICAGO. Nov. 14 —Wheat prices
were as much as cent net higher
and 5g cent net lower at various
times during today's nervous and er
ratic market.
Tne result of this indefinite mean
dering of prices was a close that was
very little different from that of
yesterday.
Buyers were attracted by persist
ence of the Southwestern drought,
but reports from Kansas said farm
ers in some sections were more op
timistic since last week's rains. Mill
purchasing was on a small scale and
no export business could be con
firmed despite the raise in flour ex
port subsidy rates.
