There Is no mystery about what has
been happening in the stock market in
these days Of the campaign for the
second Liberty Loan. Investors have
been selling. Liquidation has been
heavy and general. Prices have de-
clined TIL in many cases they repre-
sent much less than actual values.
This condition is unfortunate in
several ways. Persons who ought to
subscribe for Liberty bonds are in
danger OF finding present prices Of
other securities altogether too tempt
ing. Their money, invested In railway
and industrial shares, Will bring them
very fair dividends on the investment
despite war taxation. Besides there Is
the probability Of a substantial appre-
citation in values after the war.
Other persons, frightened by the
lowering OF prices, may Join in the
selling process and take losses that
they need not take, and have only
themselves, at bottom, to blame.
The sellers may use the money re-
ceived from the sale Of their holdings
in subscribing for the Liberty Loan
we wonder II they realize what a mis-
take they make TO subscribe with
money got in this way.
It Is better to borrow money with
which to subscribe to the Liberty
Loan than TO disturb past savings al
ready invested The borrowing should
in every case be done with the idea OF
repayment from current income in as
short a time as Is compatible with
the personal circumstances OF the Dor
rover.
