TOPICS OF WALL STREET.
The short Interest.

One problem bothering Wall Street is
the size and extent of the short interest,
because on buying back of stocks by
shorts hopes of a robust rally are pred
icated One large house estimated yes
terday that the size of the short interest
was 1,500,00 to 100000 shares. In
many quarters such an estimate is
scoffed at, and some keen traders say
that the short interest Is not extraor-
dinarily large. that bears have had
ample time to cover on the way down.
and that most hig traders cover theis
commitments daily. A. feature com
mented on In commission houses recent
ly Is the great number of small traders
who deal in five. ten, twenty-five and
fifty share lots on the short side.
The New York herald., 1920-11-19
Sacrificing Inventories.

Some unfavorable and unfounded
stories which have been in circulation
in the financial district have been
brought about. indirectly by the de-
cision OF many boards OF directors to
sacrifice heavy inventories at whatever
price they would bring. A large firm
recently had considerable sugar on
hand. 1t ordered its brokers to sell
that sugar for what ii would bring.
The storys that the firm had been
obliged to sell out It's holdings was
whispered in the sugar trade. whence
1t reached the stock market with varia- :
tions and improvements. Within a few
days officials Of the concern were
obliged TO deny that 1t was in financial
trouble

General Asphalt.

Application has been made to the list
ing committee of the New York Stock
Exchange to list two classes of stock Of
the General Asphalt Company. one Of
the speculative favorites in the Curb for
two years. That corporation has s7,541.~
100 of per cent. cumulative preferred
stock and $31, 100000 OF common. The
common is quoted around s44 a share,
against high of $50 n share last fall.
Application to list $15,00O.000 OF Cleve-
land, Cincinnati and Chicago refunding
and Improvement per cent. series A
bonds due on July !, 1929, was made.
The New York herald., 1920-11-19
Central Leather Buys Hides.

The Central Leather Company hd
reentered the market for hides and has
closed n deal for 400. 900 mixed hides.
fer which 1t will pay the Chicago dea.-
ers 13 to 16 cents a pound. 1t is the
first of the larger corporations to
enter the hide market. The prices paid
contrast with 4s to SO cents a year ag }
., d the record high of so to so cent >
nlid Is to cents less than the 1vera ss
r.e-war price. Shoe companies are In
curing for comparatively small amour
OF leather. Two of them have placed
orders totalllng 100000 with the Cen
t-sl Leather Company in the last few
days.

Sterling Market Active.

A very thin market has developed In
the pound sterling in the last few days.
That exchange was exceptionally active
yesterday In range of s3.42ss to $3.49.
It's last sale was at s3.43%, against
s347ia at Wednesdays close. A large
dealer in foreign exchange said yester-
day that the range appeared to be s3.40
to $3.50. with the possibility Of even
higher prices If there should be quick
developments In trade negotiations be-
tween Great Britain and Soviet Russia.
The New York herald., 1920-11-19
Anton obile Taxation.

The suggestion that the Federal sales
tax on passenger automobiles be in
creased per cent. to 10 per cent. and on
motor trucks from 2 per cent. to per
cent. has reused veritable storm OF
protest and was a factor in yesterdays
continued liquidation OF motor and
truck stocks. w. G. Rowley, vice-presi-
dent OF the Federal Motor Truck Com
pany, declared that sales are the goose
that lays the golden egg. "Such taxa
ton as is proposed" he declared, at
this critical time, would certainly kill
the goose"

American international.

The surprise to the Street in the pass
y of American International Corpora
I ons dividend yesterday was that thu
d vidends on it's preferred and its com.
mcn should have been eliminated. The
c mmon declined 10 points on that an
ncuncement. dropping from the day >
high OF 49 to 3sA, with rally at the
close to 39h. 1t became known yester-
day that directors of the corporation
were not at all pessimistic regarding the
situation and held the theory that thu
II ssing OF the dividends was an act of
prudence rather than one OF necessity.
