today says:
It frequently happens that when
Wall street becomes accustomed to
an adverse market factor, 1t either
disregards it altogether or recalls 1t
to attention only occasionally. The
streets attitude toward the very
ominous situation in Russia is a case
in point. 1t is doubtful If the trad
ing fraternity takes the condition of
things over there quite as seriously
as 1t should. There is some grumb-
ling over the tangled state<of affairs
in Washington. fears of excessive
taxation and protests against food
measures and so on.
There WAS much in the news Of the
day, which caused hesitation, such as
Won Observation-Disclosures address in
the reichstag and a statement that he
would not give Germany's war aims
at this time.
Net changes in steel and copper Is
sues were not considerable although
there were intervals of weakness. The
