NEW YORK TRIBUNE-T'he truth Il
short selling has had very little TO a. with
the decline in security prices. Bonds have
dropped quite as preciptately al stocks nm.
I'll they are at the lowest level reached in
twenty years or more, and 1t is plain that
short selling has had nothing to do win
that' obviously much bigger things ara
back of this great decline in values Per.
haps the most important single factor ba,
been the constant liquidation Of securities
by rich men who are seeking TO avoid
heavy taxation imposed 'il.der the war rev.
enue bill by shifting their funds into IN,
exempt securities, principally the hrxt
Liberty Loan and municipal bonds There
lS no doubt that this has been taking placa
on large scale; some of thor, who have
been making the shift frankly admit /,
Ordinarily these same men might be relied
upon TO support the market under conditions
such as obtain at present. As il is. thew
are not only Withholding support, but act,I-
ally contributing to the decline, by con.
tinued selling.

NEW YORK SUS-The break was
attributed by bankers to steady llouda.
tion of investments by wealthy people who
have become alarmed over the taxation pro.
gram Of the Government. One banker SAID
the plan of taxation as passed is stupid and
unscientifid.
After tue close the clerical forces of the
big brokerage houses were busy sending out
calls for additional margin. Ever sincs
the 1915 boom in the stock market and the
subsequent decline in prices brokerage
houses have insisted that their customers
maintain large margins, but the deprecla-
ton has been so great in the last three
months that these margins have dwinded
to virtually nothing.
Bankers and brokers laid emphasis on
the fact that the break in prices yesterday
was not due in any degree to short selling,
but to liquidation mainly for the accounts
of rich people who have steadily been taxi
ing certificates out of their safe deposit
vaults ever since the Governments plans
relative to taxation assumed tangible FORM

Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1917-10-16

NEW YORK AMERICAN-The trouble,
according to sound judges of markets past
and present is largely psychological in that
every one from the odd-lot trader to the
substantial banker, is really 'up in the air.
Further, it is not only the little fellow that
trades on scanty margins. His Weather
brother also tries to bite off as much as he
can. As a result, brokers are selling out
scores of their customers for failure to
put up additional margin,
A banker intimate with the Stock Ex-
change fraternity and with activities OF the
exchanges governing board, states un'
euuivocally that only two things now can
help the current situation. They are, he
said, peace, or Government aid in the shape
of a large loan TO the railroads with which
to purchase much-needed equipment and 10
meet maturing debts.
