Securities and Money
Baldwin and
Crucible Lead
Market Advance

Baldwin Locomotive and Cruciblc
Steel leaped upward yesterday In a
market whose general tendency was
toward higher prices. Again the en-
hanced values we're registered mainly
in the industrial shares, with the equip
ment stocks, the steels and the oils
particularly benefited.
More than one million and half
shares Of stock were bought and sold
in the broadcast market since August
8, when transactions exceeded 1000. 900
shares. Traders dealt in 274 different
issues of stock, compared with con-
siderably more than 300 in the days
of the protracted bull market which
was checked last month.
The spurts of Crucible Steel and
Baldwin were so spectacular that fears
were expressed that the market might
get into an unhealthy condition again.
after its technical position had been so
greatly improved during the shake-out
IN August. AS shorts tried to cover.
Crucible rose to 194A and closed at
l9aTs, leaving net gain for the dav
of 177s points. Crucible has sold as
low as 52h this year, and before the
present movement the highest price at
which the stock sold was reached in
1915. when it's high was 1097s.
The reporting out Of the Cummings
railroad bill, indicating that the time
for solution Of the railroad problem
was drawing nearer, encouraged buyine
OF the equipments on the theory that
new equipment would be purchased as
soon as a railroad policy is definitely
put into effect. Helped by short COW
ering and by the dissemination of old
rumors, Baldwin, which was especially
active in the last half hour Of trading.
gained 15 points, closing at 129A, and
American Locomotive rose TX points.
Among the steels, Bethlehem 3 went
up S7s points, Steel Common, pa;
Mldvale, 2; Lackawanna, 1ts. The oil
shares gained impetus from the an
nouncement in the afternoon of an in
crease in the quarterly dividends of
esAoieuHi ana Kan Am erlcan
Petroleum.
Brokers reported public participation
IN the market, but the part played by
the professionals remained extremely
important. No momentous chsnge in
the news of the outside world affected
The market, whose rise was q further
expression of the Wall Street view that
,ne labor outlook is far brighter than
IL was few weeks ago. The rails
tailed to share much in the rise, largely
because OF uncertainty as to the future
Of the railroads.

still prevailed. Liberty bonds were
steadier and continued to be the main

Baldwin Skyrockets Is Points

Predictions that Baldwin Locomotive
would be taken up by a strong specula-
tive group and that drive would be
made against the Shorts" were borne
out by the action of the stock yester-
day. There was no visible news to ac-
count Tor the net advance Of Is points,
but the rumor factory was working
overtime all during the stock market
session. One report had it that "some-
thing was to be done with the Eddy
stone munltlon plant" Another stated
that prominent trader had bought q
thlrty-day call on 5000 shares 80 points
away from the market in the morning.
ms same individual was credited with
naving IN his possession q call on 90
600 shares of Crucible Steel, good at
l45. There was also the old story that
BALDWIN directors at their next meet
ing, would announce the much -heralded
recapltalization plan. None of the re-
ports, however. carried the stamp Of
official approval

AS to Price Fixing

Regarding the mass attack on the
high cost of living, the Mechanics and
Metals Bank, in its monthly letter, says:
The evil effects of price fixing ought
now to be sufficiently clear, even if
they were not so before the war. When
government arbitrarily fixes a lower
price for commodity than that pre-
yalllng it necessarily leaves less profit
for the producers and may even entire
y wipe out the profits Of certain pro
ducers. 1t therefore discourages pro
duction. The lowering of prices. it
must be remembered, does not add a
single item to the nations wealth. II
does not add loaf of bread. build a
single new house, nor bring into be-
in; single pair of shoes. On the con-
trary, by the certain disbursement
OF production, it brings fewer loaves of
bread. fewer houses and fewer shoes.
AS prices are rarely high unless com
modlties are scarce, it is essential at
such times that the supply be con
served as much as possible. High
prices themselves help to insure this.
Whereas, artificial reductions, unless
accompanied by strict rationing. en-
courage waste"

Brokerage Opinion MIXED

Brokerage opinion at the close OF yes
tcrday's stock market was mixed.
There were a number who believed
that the sensational gains in Baldwin
Locomotive and Crucible Steel war
ranted some reaction, but it was con-
ceded that the tone at the end of the
session was strong. I've can better
judge of the lifting power of the mar
ket IN day or two, after the short
interest has been eliminated" was the
comment of one observer. "But Ger
tainly the abrupt rise in spccialties
wlll do much to stimulate public in
