Peace and the Market.

There was little to distinguish the day
on which peace was signed, so far as
the Wall street view was concerned.
from any other day. Many people had
anticipated fareup in stocks. 1t did
not come. An equal number had antici-
pated that stocks would drop sharply.
This. by the same token. did not ma
terialize. The market was brisk, or
derby affair, with a strong undertone
predominating, with wide advances in
some Of the speclaities picked out for
attention and with the usual profit taxi
ing near the close Of the session. The
facts that the market has been discount
ing peace for several months. and that
II had been almost certainty for a
week that Germany would sign the
treaty, took much Of the snap from the
signing of the treaty as a market factor.
IN regard to the immediate outlook mar
ket opinion Is considerably mixed. Most
authorities. in view OF the three day hol-
iday next week, anticipate trading mar
ket for the period. Practically the en-
tire Wall Street fraternity Is unanimous
In the opinion that ultimately stocks will
work into higher levels. The rrbbers.
the steels and the coppers were Arm yes

ments of the July 1 period was revealed

there was a reduction in loans. dis
counts. &c, amounting to sl9,247.OO0.
The Improvement In the reserve position
was due to an increase OF $35,700, 900
in cash, against an increase in demand
deposits Of $11.738,000. In some quar-
tiers II was stated that money rates
should work easier after July l not
withstanding the large amount Of finan-
cling approaching contamination. The
Government demand for funds is show
ing a decreasing tendency and 1t Is be-
lieved that the present Issue Of tax GER
tihcates and another issue of certifi-
Gates of Indebtedness. which will come
in the latter part of July. will mark the
end OF wholesale issues of such certif-
Gates. On the other hand, the constant
improvement in general business condi-
tons presages the use of additional
capital in many lines.

Market Comment.

The forecasts of the immediate fu-
ture to be found In the letters which
went out from commission houses yes
terday generally were optimistic, but
most Of them agree that the market has
entered trading area and probably
will simmer for a while. f. w. Wagner
& Co. say: 1T Is our belief that rep
resentative securities, particularly steel,
copper, food and kindred issues and the
railroads. are destined to sell at mate
rally higher levels" A. A. Housman &
Co. say: I'VE rather look for a trading
market during the coming week. but
the general tone is distinctly firm, and
It seems as II only small encouragement
were needed to impel price advances"
Wrenn Bros. & Co. say: THE money
market still dominates the stock market
and promises to continue doing so for
some time. J. S. Bache & Co. say
''The quiet purchasing Of carefully Sc
lected securities Is proceeding and APP
pears to be justified" Halle & Stieg-
litZ say From now on We believe the
market is going to discount tangible
things connected with Americas finan-
clal and Industrial greatness" Clark.
Childs Co. say: The outlook seems
to be for a more moderate market dur

No Money for Grain.

The announcement OF officials OF the
i United States Grain Corporation that
they do not anticipate that 1t will be
necessary for the corporation to borrow
any large sums of money to handle the
grain they will buy from the farmers
was received with a great deal OF pleas
ure in Wall Street. Traders and COM
mission men were inclined to accept the
statement as a favorable development
in the stock market, and to feel that
with this possible money drain out OF
the way the money market is likely to
hold down well. unless new and special
Developments bring about an upward
turn OF the rate. Last season some hun
dreds OF millions OF dollars were Dor
rOwed by the corporation to care for the
tremendous quantity of grain unloaded
on II by the farmers. The extra ap-
preparation of sl,000.000, 600 made by
the last Congress. added to the original
capitalization OF the corporation gives
total resources of $l,l50.0O0.000 on
which the corporation may rely to take
care OF its grain. There is the posi-
bility that the European crop will he so
large that there will be no demand for
the American product. and that the mar
ket price will slip well below the guar
anteed price. in which case the corpora
ton will need funds to make up the diff
ference. Men In close touch with the
situation do not anticipate that more
than S.l50. 900, 900 will be required by
the corporation.

United states Rubber.

The pressure for dividends by the
common stock holders of the United
States Rubber Company. In view OF the
company's increased current earnings
and the still brighter outlook. Is ex-
pected TO be brought to the attention
of the directors when they meet for
dividend action on July 3. on this
fact the sharp move in United States
Rubber. which yesterday shot up AZ
points above los, was based. The reg
ular rate on the first and second pre-
ferrcd will be unchanged. according TO
Street talk. and there is reported to
be an uncommonly good opportunity for
the common to share In the present
prosperity. The problem. It Is conceded
lies with Col. Samuel p. Colt who has
not expressed publicly an opinion. One
director is quoted as saying that divi-
dends on the common might not be
resumed this year" but that they could
be resumed, should the directors SO de-
sire. The fortytwo mills owned by the
company in the United States and
Canada are reported operating n: capac-
ity, and the indications point to a con-
siderable increase from the gross turn
over Of 1920, 000, 900 in 1918.

Building Operations.

The Commercial Monthly, issued by
the National Bank of Commerce in New
York, contains n review OF the buildipg
outlook. 1t says: THE figures for con
tracts awarded for the first five months
OF this year. together with building per-
mits for May. indicate that a genuine
building expansion has arrived. The
future OF the building programme for
this year rests ultimately with the ques-
ton of building costs. as the possibility
OF financing projects Is determined by
cost. The wholesale prices OF lumber
structural steel and other building ma.
terials are between so and 10 per cent.
higher than the average for the year
1913. Wages In the building trades are
high and there is no reason to anticipate
q reduction so long as the present cost
|of living prevails
