The Market Situation.

Aside from the ordinary seasonal
evening up of commitments say
Wrenn Brothers in their weekly let.sf
there are no new factors Of ~
portance in the stock market. Tbs
evening up process is a sort OF prep,
aration for the dull vacation period o.
the summer. and involves both reaiz'
ing sales and covering purchases on
the part of the large traders. It quite
usually occurs in Nay or in early june
and the realizing sales when the mar
Ket Is IN weak position sometimes
produces a severe decline. Recently,
however, there has been nothing more
than a moderate reaction, ard tne
further the reaction went the more nc
selling diminished. Other factors, suea
as the liquidation of securities oy
Great Britain, the heavy issue OF ne"
securities here, the big earnings OF ~
dustrial companies and the huge eA'
ports of war supplies, remain IN
changed. Security issues for the mon.n
of May were SlS2,900.000, against ssei'
100000 year ago, and the increase was
especially large in industrial stoeAs
Issues of these for the month weIe
So6,OOO,OO0, against S7,4O0,O0O yea
ago, and close inspection Of The enS
acter OF these issues showed gfee'
deterioration from last year Lalss
proportions of them represent notnlns
more than a capitalization OF the Press
ent high commodity prices, and ".
lose most of their value and earnias
power as soon as commodities return
normal levels. These new stocks, ils's;
or unlisted, have tendency 20 re'S'S
