BAD BREAKS on CHANGE
Heavy Liquidation from All Quarters
Causes Slump on Wall Street,
MONEY LENDERS ARE MORE CAUTIOUS
Brokers Call for Additional Marrins,
While Some Holdings Are Thrown
ON Market, Adding 10 Down
ward Tendency.

NEW YORK, March 5.-Stocks broke
badly today on the heavy outpouring Of
liquidation from all quarters. There was
a well-centered bear attack on a number of
stocks which have become vulnerable by
the building up of extensive pool accounts
and manipulation in the market. The dis
satisfaction over the money outlook, the
continued withdrawal of banking reserves
and the necessity of scaling down credit
accounts to keep pace with the declining
reserves were responsible for most of the
selling. The unstable conditions of stocks
developed last week aroused widespread
distrust. and was the cause for sending out
calls for large additional margins on specu-
latiVc holdings. Failure to respond to
these induced the throwing over of some
holdings by commission houses. Tht offer
ing down of prices by the bears had the
effect of exhaustng margins and uncover
ing stop loss orders. The weight upon the
market has thus increased

this gift may be better understood when

ORDINANCE TO LIMIT
HEIGHT OF BUILDINGS
Springfield, Mass, Believes High Struc-

A height limit for buildings at Spring

TO erect this provides that after It's pas
sage no building shall be erected to a
height Of greater than IL times the
width of the street upon which 1t Is To-
Gated, and that no building shall be
erected 10 a height exceeding 100 feet In
the business section, and so feet in the
residence section Of the city, the bound
aries between the two sections to be
designated from time to time by the
board OF aldermen. Where the front Of
a building is placed back Of the street
line the distance between the two lines
may he considered as added 10 the width

not give rise to heights IN excess Of the
limits Just stated. Greater heights than
100 feet and so feet respectively, are per-
rnitted where the upper portions Of the

The height limits named do not apply 20

hneries.
AT a meeting held to take action on
the matter. nearly all the speakers sup
ported the ordinance. and in addition a
number Of letters were read to the same
effect. One of the letters was from
Prof. william T. Sedgwick, of the Mass
aehusetts Institute OF Technology, Bos-
ton, Mass. This letter concluded as fol-
lows: 4,
strong sanitary objections to the con-
struction and occupancy OF sky-scrapers
are manifest and in my opinion the
physical as well as the material pros
perity OF the people as a whole lmper-
atively requires a reasonable limitation
of the height OF buildings and of the
consequent crOwding OF large numbers
OF people upon small areas"
The specific objections 10 all buildings
raised by Prof. Sedgwick were the fact
that they deprive their inmates of the
beneficial effect Of sunlight, and, es-
pecially or muggy days, Interfere with
air circulation: also that they tend to
aampness and create nervous strain.
