Market Sentiment More Cheerful

1t was the consensus of opinion in
most of the weekly market letters
of the leading commission houses that
the worst of the liquidating movement
had been seen. Barring some unfore
seen accidents. they believe the market
is in a fair way for material re-
covery.
Opinions of some Of the more prom
inent houses follow:
Hecker & Co.-"Although the for
eign situation has been blamed for much
of the uncertainty in the stock market,
in reality much of it has been caused
by the fear that the Public Service
Commissions in the various states will
not allow the railroads the same in
crease in rates that was allowed by
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
Should intrastate rates be made less
than inter state rates. it will result in
endless confusion. Until final action
is taken by these commissions. the
earning of the railroads affected will
be uncertain. The market AZ whole
has withstood unfavorable news very
well and apparently the trading. al
though narrow, has been of construc-
tive nature
Jones & Baker-"Apparently the
unfavorable European news has been
discounted by the market and the strong
tone toward the close of the week in
dicates that the turning point has been
reached. The usual election year
rise is expected to get under way short
ly, especially as call money has again
got down around per cent
Chandler Bros. & CO.-"Another
week of sharp attack produced in
large variety of stocks, new low records
for year or more. This time the
weakness was not based so much upon
money scarcity as upon the successes
gained by the Russian Reds in their
drive toward Warsaw and the appar-
ent collapse of the Polish defense. It
has, of course, seemed inevitable that
just such result must occur against
such an uneven struggle as the newly
formed republic has attempted in meet
ing the countless Russian hordes, un-
doubtedly aided and abetted by Ger
man direction and assistance. 1t is
also unfortunately true that Poland is
largely to blame for the sorry plight In
which it finds itself today. II the
work of the League of Nations at Paris
had been. as thoroughly and capably
performed as it should, the present
crisis would in all probability have been
avoided"
Hugh Iuer- lhere come times
in life when it is far better to take the
perspective view of the situation rather
than to be too thoroughly impressed by
those things which lie close at hand. II
seems to us to be such moment in
connection with market affairs, be-
lieving as we do that the near future
holds much brighter things in store than
appear on the surface in viewing the
situation from close range"

GOSSIP OF
THE STREET

As the time for depositing the bonds
OF the National Properties Go. under
the bondholders' protective committee
plan expires today, IL will be up to those
holders who have not assented to decide
whether IL is q wiser course to accept
something which has been worked out
by competent banking interests or chase
Will o. the wisp promise Of an un-
determined action. One has the In
dorsement of representative banking
interests, fanked by an underwriting
syndicate, which means a successful
carrying out OF the refinancing plan In
the sincere efforts of the protective
committee offer nothing, not even hint
suggesting any plan which would be
fairer to the bondholders.
Talk is cheap, and there has ap-
parently been altogether too much OF It,
and too little action. Criminations and
recriminations bring nothing and have
no tangible results. 1t only breeds
confusion and distrust. This has been
the trouble Of the Independent move.
ment. There has been whole lot OF
'clamoring for something, yet not
single interest has been able to produce
any concrete evidence Of what this
something Is.
Considering the money market con-
ditions existing, which are familiar to
every one, 1t Is the consensus Of opinion
Of competent bank authorities that the
protective committee made an excep-
tionally good bargain. There is no use
going into the details Of the contro-
versy, as the matter has been thoroughly
threshed out, both orally and in public
print. More than two thirds Of the
bondholders and the group Of banks
which have extended credit to the COM
pany have assented to the protective
committees plan. 1t Is altogether likely
that the plan. furthermore, will be de-
clared operative after today. At the
eleventh hour, unless the opponents can
offer something much better, it will be
wiser for those on the side lines to
follow the crowd.

Watching Railroad Situation

Banking interests are giving close at :
tention to the railroad situation because
Of the fact that the carriers are now
engaged in a struggle with the various
state commissions over the rate ad-
vances, which, 1t is believed, will be
satisfactorily adjusted.
In influential quarters no effort Is
made to conceal the belief that the re-
cent rate advance allowed by the Inter
state Commerce Commission was the
most constructive development in a
generation.
For long pull in the rails, bankers
say, the decision was constructive, but
It must be remembered that the res
toration Of rail credit must be worked
out gradually, sparingly and conserva-
lively, and that the higher rates merely
provide living wage for railroad CAPT
tai. .
Some of those who have been noted
among the buyers of Reading announced
their intention Of holding the stock
without regard to it's market movement
until its assets have been distributed
as they think that is the only way to
obtain the full profits which they expect
to come through the execution of the
Supreme Courts mandate.

Market Apparently Oversold

Considerable comment was made in
market circles on Saturday on the scare
ity of offenders, as higher prices were
established. 1t was assumed that the
absence Of supply indicated that an
oversold condition had again been Gre
ated: making the market sensitive to
bullish influences OF any character.
In the meantime. better situation
on the other side Of the water was in
dicated by the action Of sterling ex-
change. There Is growing impress
sion that the liquidation has run Its
course, at least for the time being.
II was noticed, however, that the
buying was cautious and the recovery
was kept within moderate bounds.

The mans clothing would cost

If it is possible to fit out the whole

to fit out the mother in Boston. where
do the federal investigations leave

New England, for conditions between
Boston and Augusta may vary as
widelysas between Boston and New

be a committee in each town to tell

to do about it? Shop just as well as
we know how and let the committees
take care of themselves.
If people read the reams OF Stats

thing else. Commissions and bu-
reaus multiply and boards investigate
without end. all of which costs huge
sums of money that eventually comes
out of the people.
