One Of the strongest arguments in favor. OF the
contention that the depression in the stock
market was the outcome OF a more less gen.

very cheap. and is obtainabe conditions

yield a percentage abnormally above the interest
rate. Under usual conditions the interest rate
and the yield securities adjust themselves.
and in the process come close together The adj
vantage of having funds in a liquid form readily
available for any is legitimate reason why
stocks should yield more than the interest rate.
but of late the difference has been excessive. The
normal value OF money admittedly has fallen in
recent years. but the present situation In the
local money market cannot fairly be taken as an
indication Of the extent 10 which the accumula-
ton of capital has lowered the interest rate.

fact investors have not had confidence enough
