defiance. 1t has completely changed and
at this juncture there is nothing that
would be left undone by the organization
to prove complete change of heart A
publicity bureau has been established and
it is now engaged in the circulation of
literature to correct alleged wrong i'm
pressions as to the previous attitude of
the exchange toward the public. 1t Is a
laudable missionary crusade and may re-
store better relations between the COM
mission payer and the commission collec-
tor. The notion prevails, however. that
the awakening was late, and that the
administration of discipline may be pro-
tracted. Memberships have recovered in

Banks and trust. companies that spe-
calize on counter business in bonds
have emerged from a dog day sleep and
are treating investors with a line of edu-
cational literature on the great bargains
now in sight. These specialists are still
loaded up with goods, and it is true that
many bonds are dirt cheap The flo
tation of new issues on endurable terms
is almost impossible, even though the
credit of the makers be unimpeachable
Railroads and industrials are keeping
down new production of Indebtedness to
the lowest possible limit and confining
fresh output to notes running one to three

There was statistical material enough

Perple kitty over the future of business

Visible Conditions Unsatisfactory

Correct as this presentation Of the sa-
lient facts may be, 1t cannot be denied
that visible and sentimental market con-
ditions are unsatisfactory. The invest
ment and speculation inquiry that fol-
lowed the big break that eliminated early
in the summer did not develop into
sustained bull market. 1t cannot be de-
MED, however, that there has been suffi-
cient support to successfully prevent a
disastrous reversion to former low, levels.
Many uncertainties have been removed
and others are in process of elimination
tariff agitation for one. The certainty OF,
currency revision is not yet fully assured
and the postponement of a final vote on
the pending measure would not be re-
garded in Wall street as unmitigated
calamity. An analysis Of under-the-sur-
face features reveals covert but powerful
opposition to the pending money measure.
