The main influence Of the day was
the action taken yesterday at wash

in which he said that what had been
done was for the purpose bf stabilizing

some OF the potent reasons why the
producer and holder should exercise
patience, calling attention to some OF
the favorite points made by those who
have been bullish during the recent
wave OF decline. Following is a sum

u-boat activities, monthly increase In

reasoning was sound, and IT helped give

by Washington adviCes predicting great

dicated by adyices from all directions
