Securities and Money
Stock Prices Leap
Upward as Public
Re-enters Market

Speculative enthusiasm yesterday
burst the bounds set up by fear over
the consequences of labor unrest,
and stock prices swung from 1
to 10 points upward. Those who
buy and sell securities gained re-
newed confidence from the Chief Ex-
ecutives statement of the futility of
lifting up wages and trying to pull
down prices at the same time. 1t fels
that he was speaking the voice of the
wider public. The announcement that
representatives of 10000 Midvale Steel
employees had shown their belief in
resolutions adopted that "the only
sure remedy for the high cost Of living
is increased production and the sta
bilization of prices in conformity with
wages now being paid" was also IA
vorably received
With very few exceptions, security
values climbed higher throughout the
trading day until about fiften minutes
tefore the close of the market. A
report from Washington that the rail-
road shopmen were unready to ac-
cept the Presidents decision some
what dulled the exuberance of traders,
and prices turned irregular. More
over, after the close of the market
Samuel Gompers, who returned from
Europe, issued warning to employers,
indicating that labor was not likely to
be quiescent.
Observers, of the market who were
debating yesterday whether the rise
marked the beginning of new upward
movement dwelled on the important
effect the supply of money would
probably have. The rate on call loans
yesterday did not leap above 6 per
cent, although some operators were
afraid of sitter rates However, the
fact that money conditions are by no
means easy at present tended to keep
transactions down despite the entry
of the public into the market as buy
err. Two hundred and fifty-four diff
ferent stocks were traded in, compared
with 259 on Monday.
Inc Iudlu ACTIVITY was IN the IN
dustral stocks, but the railroads to a
less extent shared in the Improvement
of values. Steels, marines, oils and
most of the specialtes responded to
the impelling forces that caused the
rise. Crucible Steel, in which the
short interest is reported to be large,
gained 14]2 points, and, after a re-
action, retained net increase for the
day of 10&l points. Gossip about the
likelihood of declaration of an extra
dividend, possible in Liberty bonds,
accelerated the. movement of the
stocks.
In the bond market slight better
ment of conditions obtained. Less
selling pressure was exerted, but trad
ing continued to be on moderate scale
and chiefly in Liberty bonds. Railroad
bonds were trifle frmer.
