rather an academic matter up to this
week, different attitude is now dis
cernible. The acute collapse Of inter
national credit quotations has produced
| the .gravest misgivings respecting the
| foreign trade movement. This was
heightened by rumors of embargoes on
various exports from this country. While
the situation unquestionably is grave,
there are reasons for believing the worst
side of the picture has been overdrawn.
Still it Is apparent that much remains
to be done il the foreign exchange is
to be even partially stabilized.
In view of the unprecedented col
lapse in foreign exchange and the acute
stringency of money the velocit. of the
downward swing was not surprising.
While the shake down of stock prices
was severe, there was at no time during
the turbulent trading the first symptoms
of Generalization or anything approach
ing panicky conditions. Extreme re =
actions for the week ranged from 10
to As points in wide variety Of stocks,
especially oils, motors, equipments and
shipping shares. Many low priced
specialties were sacrificed at gross re-
cessions of to % points. This means
that since November well over so per
cent of the market advance of last year
has been wiped out. The speculation
in oil stocks has been stifed new and
unseasoned fotations are now selling
at far below their underwriting price, in
some notable instances for substantial
discount below the actual money in
vested in the business.
1t is possibly too early to get
sound opinion on the market as to the
immediate course, but it would seem
reasonably certain that the worst of
the liquidating movement had now been
seen. How badly the deflation of bank
credits may have been needed and how
determined the Federal Reserve board
is to effect readjustment of the credit
situation, the work and the results that
have been accomplished in the last three
months is tremendous. Notwithstand-
ing the apparent seriousness of the
financial situation at home and abroad,
it would seem reasonably certain that
the stock market has discounted much
and the current level of quotations
measured changes in the general situa-
tion that are not yet discernible to the
naked eye.

CLOSING MARKET DISPLAY YED
MUCH STRONGER UNDERTONE
Pr7ces Improved Steadily After Ireguly the Outset
Worst Side of Situation Discounted

New York, Feb. while irregular
on the surface today's closing stock
market exhibited much stronger un =
dertone. The somewhat erratic fiuctua-
tions were the natural aftermath of the
recent violent gyrations, and, in q
measure, represented mostly the week
end adjustments of the professional
trading element.
Here and there through the list there
was evidence of belated liquidation, but
this was incidental to O change in the
market conditions rather than indicat-
ing radical change in the situation.
On the other hand, there were no signs
of the urgent selling witnessed in the
preceding session.
There was a vigorous rally at the
opening on continued extensive covering
| of the short interest, but most of this
Improvement was Cancelled before the
end of the first fifteen minutes. The re-
action was due almost wholly to room
traders testing the market with a view
of putting out further lines of shorts,
but good underlying demand was in
evidence, and in consequence, the efforts
of the bear party were quickly aban-
doned.
y further rally in foreign exchange
together with the belief that the most
acute stage of the money stringency had
been passed started a secondary rally
before the end of the first hour. During
the balance of the session prices i'm
proved steadily, with the more active
stocks going back to and above the open
ing high level.
The violent crash in security values
this week demonstrated above everything
else the uselessness of attempting to
measure the possibilities of the current
market by established precedents and
former accepted rules and regulations.
1t was the consensus of opinion of
recognized judges at the close of the
preceding week of the market having
approached an oversold condition and
was generally believed to be what the
street is pleased to call thoroughly
liquidated. The weeks food of liquida-
ton and attending slump in quotations
showed how these experts had mis-
calculated the market position and
underestimated the influence of the acute
domestic and international monetary
situation.
In speculative quarters, where the
fall of exchanges had been considered

Continued heavy selling of Lake Su-
perior Corporation furnished about the
only noteworthy feature Of today's brief
session in the local market. The stock
was under liquidating pressure from the
outset, which depressed the price to IT,
the lowest it has touched in two years.
Near the closing there was rally to
17&. While some effort has been made
to associate the weakness of the stock
to some hitch In the negotiations with
the bondholders of the underlying rail :
road properties. the movement has more
the earmarks of the enforced closing out
of extended speculative accounts.
The dealings in the other local shares
were on limited scale and almost wholly
void Of interest or feature, being al
most entirely of a perfunctory charac-
ter. Among the few exceptions was the
spirited recovery in American Stores,
which was elevated to 30as, or 1ss
above last nights closing. Electric
Storage Battery was another, making a
recovery of So to 11S.
Elsewhere 1t was merely a case of
fraction juggling. u. G.. I. advanced
~ to 53. Union Traction and Philadel-
phia Traction advanced n, while Phila-
deiphia Rapid Transit was unchanged.
hC "cohbcSo NuICH cropped uD In
different parts of the list in the local
market during the week was a natural
sequence of the times. Considering the
general unsettled state of affairs mar
ketwise and the surrounding disturbing
and depressing conditions and circum-
stances, 1t is in some ways remarkable
the local stocks have stood up as well
as they have throughout the severe test
to which all the security markets have
been subjected.
Throughout the week the market was
found to be extremely thin, particularly
for some of the higher priced special
ties. The movement in several of these
issues was entirely and absolutely uf
speculative origin, while in others the
reckless up bidding had only the finn
sy foundation of exaggerated or magni-
fed deductions of abnormal conditions.
The collapse of the market for such
overplayed speculative footballs is in
no way surprising. 1t is more difficult
to reconcile the depreciation in the more
seasoned dividend paying issues whose
intrinsic value and earning power have
already been satisfactorily demonstrated
beyond dispute.
