Government control of industry, if

to peace conditions. stfle trade, re-
strain initiative, impose restrictions
and burdens that add to the cost of
distribution from manufacturer to con-
sumner, and though aimed at profiteer-

make living more difficult. This is the
conclusion Of the executive council of
the National Association of Credit Men.

that the time had come to make a
stand against imposing burdens on
private enterprise and to give special
attention to making investment in in

council felt that though government
commissions and boards have up to a
certain point a function in protecting
the interests Of the people, the multi
plicity of such commissions has already
gone too for and they have but in

Oil Shares Lead

Prices Mount Rapidly;
Better Demand for Long
Account Is r rted

Heavy dealing in oil shares at an ad-
vancing level Of prices was the out
standing development on the Curb mar
ket yesterday. Trading in outside
issues was the most active in more than
week, and the market in various is
sues, chiefly oils, became fairly buoy

were executed. Shorts were badly
squeezed in some stocks.
The upturn in Simms Petroleum car

strong at 5712 despite substantial
proht-taklng sales. Houston Oil, at

Other strong oils were Commonwealth

General Motors new stock, traded in
on a well-issued basis, ranged between

A. L. Securities joined in the general
upward movement and got above 63

of outside stocks came from shorts.
brokers reported q better demand for
the long account than at any time since
the market went into decline following
the squeeze in money. 1t appears to
be hard to keep speculation out of the
oils

New York, June 1S.-After ruling rath- CT easy during the early trading the cot ton market turned fir1ner but still TO- mains cratic and without real tendency as neither the buying or the selling seems to have much weight behind 1t, but ia mostly for scalping purposes only.
 If anything sentiment is perhaps rather bearish at the moment on the ground that the market is somewhat stale and needs some fresh stirnulant to start 1t up again. Those who try the short side
 however. soon find that they are not making much impression in the absence of any real selling against the actual and as soon as they start to cover the scarcity of contracts becomes very ap- parent As soon, however. as the shorts have covered the reluctance of the trade to follow advances from this level be- , comes equally apparent resulting in a see-saw market with possibly at the mo- ment a slightly sagging tendency if any thing. Spot advices are neutral as there is little wanted and less offered with no suggestion of any concessions in price Crop advices are mixed and reflect the condition of the particular locality from which they come which is sometimes
 fairly good, but more often poor or in different. Complaints of weevil dam
 age are becoming more frequent even
 at this early date. Some feel that there must be more liquidation and lower prices before the advances will be safe to follow and that may be true, but we would keep off the short side.-Post & Flagg.
