Under Pressure
As Week Closes
Most of the Industrial Lead.
ers Lose q Point or More
ON Light Trading; Await.
ing the Maine Election

Professional traders sold stocks in
} moderate volume yesterday and the
market yielded substantially, the in
dustrial leaders losing point or more
on comparatively light trading. Out
SIDE of the operations Of the floor
traders there was little to the market,
for attendance in the commission
houses was light and wire business was
limited.
The market started out in hesitat-
ing' Irregular manner which plainly in
dicated 8 lack of confidence on the part
Of spectators for the advance. This
naturally encouraged the professional
bears to greater effort, and before the
market had been open long the offer
lngs from this quarter increased. In
the closing hour the selling caused
general recessions.
Action of Steel common, the market
leader, which yielded more than a
point on dealings of not more than
$4,000 shares, had dampening effect
upon the rest Of the list. Another weak
spot was Mexican Petroleum, which re-
ceded more than two points. Other
special points of weakness were Ma
tional Cloak and Suit, cplogle Steel,
epublic Steel, Vanadium, Baldwin Loco
motive and Crucible Steel.
The common Wall Street view yes
terday was that the selling of stocks
was based mainly upon expectations
of an unfavorable exhibit by the banks
in their weekly statements. AS mat
ter Of fact, however, the reports of
both the Clearing House and the local
Reserve Bank disclosed no striking
changes, and in the case of the latter
the reserve ratio underwent slight i'm
provement.
AS the week closed speculative SEN
timent in stock market circles contin-
ued cheerful despite the uncertain
state election in Maine on Monday is
awaited with deep interest in financial
circles, where it is believed it will in
dicate the drift of political opinion and
afford line on the results of the ma
tional election in November.

Oppose Chemical Merger Terms

Some owners of Semet-Solvay stock
are said to be expressing their dis
satisfaction with the proposed terms
under which the company is to be
taken into the projected chemical mer-
ger. 1t is believed, however, that this
opposition will not be important
enough to interfere seriously with the
completion Of the consolidation plan.
Reports of stock dividend on Ma
tional Aniline & Chemical, common,
became definite yesterday when it was
announced that special meeting Of
stockholders has been called for Sep
tember 20 to vote on an increase in
the capital from c95.990 shares to 554.-
1856 shares without par value. The ad-
ditional 1896 shares to be author
lied are to be distributed as 40 per
cent stock dividend, following which
the stock will go into the merger on
share for share basis.

Parish & Bingham --

In sharp contrast to the sagging ten
dency of the majority of industrial
shares in yesterdays short stock mar
ket session, Parish & Bingham acted as
if it were under accumulation. It
closed at 26A, the top price of the
day. and an advance of points over
Fridays last sale. Probably the real
reason for the strength in this issue
was the prospect that directors, who
are scheduled to meet for dividend ac-
tlon next Tuesday, are expected to de-
clare the regular quarterly distribu-
ton of 81 q share.

Gary and the French Steel Industry

Wall Street was mystiGed yesterday
over the cable advices frsm Paris yes
terday in which Judge Gary, Of the
United States Steel Corporation, was
quoted with reference to a reorganiza.
tion of the French steel industry. The
Paris report said that the head Of the
American corporation would have an
important announcement TO make In
this connection on his return to the
United States. The opinion was ex.
pressed in financial circles that Judge
Gary's visit to France might have been
for the purpose of reaching working
agreement with the French steel manu-
facturers. The largest steel interests
in France are represented by the Le
Creusot Works, which turned out q

The Oils

One Of the interesting developments,
in the market of late has been The "a.
vival of activity in the oil shares. Thi,
group was one of the first to boom in
1919, and also one of the first TO suFsr
when the back swing started. It is
generally admitted that many good all
stocks are selling at low levels, consid.
ering the condition of the industry
But it is question whether the public
can be persuaded to come back for an.
other try, in view of the enormous
losses suffered as result Of the Sc.
we're slump. In discussing the oil
shares leading investment house said
yesterday: "The inevitable collspse
caught the public with its strong boxes
filed with oil stock certificates. Those
who bought the shaes of the older sea.
soned companies, even if they picked
them off the top" will undoubtedly see
prices come back; those who bought
into the new companies may do 80. A
few of these will turn out good invest.

worthless"
