Market Gossip

NEW YORK, oct. S.-For 10
days we have had a high and err
ratio money market. 1t may not
mean very much and may indicate
some trouble ahead This has been
ignored but yesterday and this
morning it is more common topic
in market discussion. American Sc
curities have reached high levels
and may attain higher ones but in
the future, as in the past. there will
be times when a pause is essential.
If we are TO have a long period Of
prosperity as has been predicted. it
will come largely because Of a for
eign demand for our surplus pre-
ducts so far nothing has been done
10 improve the market for foreign
exchange.

wasted. Until we are sure of bank
ing accommodations for further
stock market expansion, we think
longs should market a portion Of
their holdings on the bulges

Candy in South Bend will not
only be higher in the future but

also are forced 20 raise their prices.

cents per pound.
The Philadelphia reports they
have been forced to curtail their
manufacture of chocolates and 9TH
er candies and also forced TO add 10
cents per pound on practically every
candy in their store. They say it is
impossible TO supply the wants of
the people and their cases are be-
ing emptied nearly as fast as they
can fill them.
J. b. Weber of the Weber Candy
Co stated that while ne had some
sugar on hand. unless he secured
more in the near future he would
be hit hard by the shortage. I'm
on bed rock now" said Mr. Weber.
and, while 1 secure my sugar di-
rect from the rehneries, it is prac-
tically impossible for me TO place an
order at the present time" He
voiced the opinion that the real
cause of the shortage was the hoard
