Trend of Bond Prices
By M. H. sTERNE. Of Ward, Stern & Co.

According to the compilation or Dow. Jones & Co, the average price of American corporation bonds has reached new low level. or. to express if differently, the yield from bonds IS now higher than 1t ha sever been be- fore.
 This condition is not due so much to weakness inthe bonds as to combfna- ton of circumstances, based prlnci- naIly on the depreciation in the pur- chasing power of the dollar. making It imperative for the investor to receive a larger income, and the enormous vol mme of government war loans brought out at relatively high rates, forcing the price of corporation bonds down in or der to make them attractive to the in- vestor in competition with the govern ment issues
 Three years ago corporation securi- ties were selling at the highest price they have ever brought. Since then, highest grade railroad bonds nave dropped in price so that the average yield is now nearly 51s per cent, against Az per cent at that time. The average yield on second grade railroad bonds has increased from per cent to 6K per cent Public utility bonds now average close to per cent, against 5 per cent formerly prevailing. Indus- trial bonds average about 5% per cent, against the former price of 5A per cent. These prices all refer to long term issue. The practice of issuing short term notes has sprung up in the past few years, largely as a result of a mutual desire on the part of both bor- rowing corporations and investors not to commit themselves for long periods of years in view of great uncertainty as to what interest rates may prevail in the future. Such notes are being brought out at the present time on a per cent to 6h per cent basis.
 An outstanding feature in the course of bond prices for the past few years has been the growth in popu- larity of industrial issues. Three years ago industrial bonds sold on a higher yield basis than either second grade

 New Orleans, October 1-Trading in cotton today was chiefly in the way of evening up in preparation for the bu- reau reports tomorrow and no aggres- sive operations appeared on either side at any time.

The opening was lower and the market remained at small net declines during the greater part of the session, closing at net losses of to points. The break in the Liverpool market, due. according to pricate cablegrams to fear that the transport workers would join the railroad strikers, caused the lower opening here and enough selling appeared in the early trading to put prices 15 to 22 points under the final figures of yesterday Following the weekly crop reports at 10 o'clock, a somewhat steadier tone was taken on and active months were sent to z points higher than yesterdays close.

 New Orleans. October Lit was walt ing market in cotton today. nearly all classes of traders preferring to hold back until bureau day is out of the way. The labor troubles in this country and in Eng land complicated the situation and helped to lessen the desire to enter into new en- agreements.

 Liverpool slumped on threat of trans port workers to join the railroad strike and this new trouble made the situation unfavorable. As regards the railroad strike itself. the British government claimed to be making good headway and that more trains were being operated than expected.
 The weekly reports today were at first regarded as a stand-off but seemed more bullish after careful reading. state by state. The course of prices tomorrow de- bends on the interpretation placed on the government statistics. The close showed not losses of to 9 points.-Shepard and Gluck.
