HIGHER PRICES MADE
ON ALL MOTOR STOCKS
Studebaker Leads the Advance.
Firmness Also Displayed in
All Steels.
Large Margins Required and Alb
sence of a Short Interest
Are Factors.

NEW YORK. December 7.-Action
this morning was in the direction OF
higher prices for many of the indus
trials. weakness in a few. and no par
| ticular strength in the rails nor yet
activity.
The stock market seems to start well
and then lacks the push to continue
the headway with vigor. This may be
due to the fact that there is a very
small short interest in the market.
hence the absence of any rush to cover
on the strong spots, the stimulant
needed to carry the movement farther
along.
Another matter that acts as brake
on the trading Is the continued high
margins required of those who would
speculate in the speculative favorites.
There are few stocks on the list that
can be bought on a 10-point mar
gin, many that require rs points. and
some on which As points is believed to
be sufficient

Possible Motive Behind Margins.

with money as easy as II Is, Will
railroad earnings improving, and the
factories of the nation working over
time, that such margins are asked
would seem to indicate desire on the
part of the New York bankers to keeI
speculation under control, at least until
some actual results of war business
and prosperity have been made public
in annual reports. Many industrial
corporations end their fiscal year with
the calendar year. but the railroads
close June 80 of each year. The earn
ings of the latter are reported weekly
and monthly, but the industrial cor
porations, with few exceptions. have
not made a straight showdown of re-
suits.
That there is so small short interest
in the market would seem to be an evil
dence of the realization of spectators
and especially prominent operators
usually on the bear side, that this is
not the time to take a bearish view OF
conditions, and would further seem 10
indicate latent strength in the list.
Approval of Presidents Suggestion.
The particular part of the Presidents
message that the street approved OF. a
few days ago, when the turn from bear
to bull sentiment was noticed. was the
paragraph relating to railroads, an
which he suggested the Importance OF
seeing if there was anything else (the
I. c. c. being mentioned) to be done to
better the conditions under which the
railroads are working
Moreover, the President did not rec
ommend a tax on finished steel prod
ucts, but simply called attention to an
estimate of what such a tax would
