while a short time ago the biggest in
vestors were buying bonds and pay
ing little attention to stocks, the re-
verse is now the case. 1t is the stocks
that are being bought by the big men,
instead of bonds. From this he de-
duces the reasoning that the big in
vestors believe that any possible bust
ness depression is a long way off. 1t
follows from this, he argues, that a
higher level will be the result.
Wall street adv!ces from the anthra-
cite district say that the bituminous
Goa! workers will outnumber the an
thracite workers in to-morrow's conven-
ton at Indianapolis, and that they will
simply indorse the strike and offer fnan-
cial aid, without extending the trouble
