Killing the Goose

In connection with the heavy repur-
chases from foreign investors OF hun
dreds OF millions OF American railroad
and Industrial securities held in Great
Britain and France 4 totally different
viewpoint was recently taken by a
broker who IL a close student Of the sit
uation from that generally taken by
Americans. He pointed out that it had
taken years to build up a market for our
securities In those countries n to OBJ
tain their listing on tho London and
Paris exchanges. Now we are stripping
that market bare and rejoicing at the
fact that we are getting back our stocks
and bonds. This gentleman pointed out
that there might come a time not far
of when the United States would be glad
to have an accepted market for It's Sc
abroad. A rumor with a direct
bearing on this score wac widely cir
culated In commission houses yesterday.
II was tina arrangements had been con-
cluded between American II European
bankers whereby 10 more large blocks
Of our securities would be resold TO US
BY England n France. these securities
in the future to be held as collateral for
loans or credits which might be extended
to tho Allies by our bankers. This could
not be confirmed. but II Is o that
there has been a considerable abatement
OF foreign liquidation OF late.

had not been fov these sinister influences
n ID doubtful whether tho market would
have declined the last 20 or 80 points, for
the export movement, the retardatlon Of

congestion Of the supply In America, has
become almost normal again. despite the
high freights and scarcity OF tonnage.

the movement for the last four weeks Is
nearly as large as II was In 1914. which
