Trade and Finance
Developments of the Week
and Their Bearing on
the Outlook

It has been more than year since
speculative activity in the Wall Street
security market has fallen to such low
| level as Mt present The stock market
appears to have entered upon one of
those periods of intense dullness that
oftentimes follow closely after an era
of great activity, when those whose buy
ing and selling orders keep the specu-
lative pot boiling are disinclined to take
position until they can see further
into the future Last week at the Stock
Exchange dealings in listed stocks did
not average more than 100000 shares a
day. The public did nothing at all,
either on the buying or the selling side.
The professional traders showed dis
position at times to buy y'stocks, but re-
Trained from undertaking new commit
ments on large scale because of the OBJ
vious shortage Of banking credit. Some
selling for the professional short &C
count also made an appearance, but here
again the pressure exerted against the
general list was not sufficient to bring
about appreciable or significant price
changes. All things considered, the mar
ket presented d most colorlcss aspect,
and showed little that could be inter-
preted as giving an indication of what
%oo oSN h.
price swing.
Speculative stock prices move in cycles
The curve of prices for the most part
of last year swung upward in pro-
nounced fashion. Excepting for tenn
porary recoveries the trend this year
has been downward most of tho time
At current levels the average price Of
the industrial shares is approximately
five points above the low Of the year,
made on the dip Of few weeks ago.
For fortnight stocks have maintained
themselves on about the same level with
only slight fluctuations from day to day.
Obviously, this condition of stagnation
cannot last forever, and Wall Street, as
a directly interested spectator, is won
dering when the turn will come, and
whether it will be up or down. There
is no doubt that many of the standard
industrial issues have in the decline
since last November discounted great
deal in the way of business and indus
trial readjustment. In the case of the
industrial shares their present average
price is about thirty points under the
high record of last year, which, by the
way, was the highest in the history of
the market Has this been enough to
discount what already has happened in
many lines of industry and what is to
take place in the months to come as
general defation? No one pretends to
be able to answer the question, although
the financial community by and large,
whether rightly or wrongly, does take
the view that the outlook for business
and securities is brighter than few
months ago. If the assumption that
stocks have discounted the worst they
should be entitled to a moderate recov-
cry, the extent of which would likely
be governed entirely by the matter of
money supply and the degree to which it
would be possible to revive public in
terest.

Oil Land Limit Raised

From The Tribune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, June 27.-Secretary
OF the Interior Payne to-day revoked d
the regulation limiting to 4,SOO acres
the amount of land which any one oil
prospector may acquire in the Five
Civilized Tribes in Oklahoma.
The limit was originally established
with the idea of preventing monop-
oily of the oil and gas deposits
The rule has been enforced for sew
era! years, with the result that man,
persons and firms are interested as
lcssees in oil lands belonging to Ind
ians in Eastern Oklahoma. In the
meantime many of the Indians have
had the restrictions removed from
their land, and there is at present only
about Is per cent of the land allotted
to members of the Five Civilized
Tribes, which remains under the juris.
diction of the Interior Department.
In view of the fact that so small 8
proportion of the land is restricted al
present, and as there are so many com
peting oil operators in the field, the
danger of monopoly is eliminated

Banks Redeem
$700,O00,000 of
L. S. Certificates
Reserve Statement Shows
Corresponding Increase in
Loans Secured by Cor
porate and Other Paper

From The TrIbune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, June 27.-Govern-
ment operations in connection with the
collection of income and excess profits
taxes, as we'll as the redemption of
about $70O,OO0,000 and the issue of
S419,0O0,000 Treasury certificates, are
reflected in the Federal Reserve
Board's weekly statement of conditions
on June 18 of 814 member banks in
leading cities. The statement says:
GAS against net reduction of TOT
millions in Treasury certificates hold
ings and of 14.1 millions in loans Sc
cured by United States war obliga-
17.6 millions in loans secured by cor
porate stocks ~and bonds, and of 656
millions in other loans and invest
ments, the net result of the weeks
operations being decline of only 1.3
millions in the total loans and in
vestments of all reporting institutions.
"A somewhat different development
is shown for the member banks in New
York City, which report an increase of
3.5 millions in their certificate hold
| ings, together with decrease of 1872
millions in their loans secured by
United States obligations, and in
cured by stocks and bonds, of 56.2
millions in other loans and invest
ments and of 51.8 millions in total
loans and investments.
CAS- the result of the large revenue
collections, government deposits show
an increase of 215.6 millions at all re-
porting banks, and of 1895 millions
at the New York City banks. Other
demand deposits (net), on the other
hand, in consequence of the large June
Is individual and corporate tax pay
ments, show a reduction Of 829 mil
lions.
For the New York City banks the
decrease in net demand deposits is
increases in the balances held to the
credit of country correspondents, these
increases offsetting Withdrawals of
funds in connection with tax payments
by local depositors. Time deposits
show a total gain of 1873 millions, of
which 7.6 millions represent the share
of the New York City banks.
Total accomm odation to reporting
banks, as shown on the books of the
Reserve banks, declined from 2,O53.7 to
1888 millions, most of the decline
aHecting paper secured by Treasury
certificates. For the New York City
banks reduction under this head
from 661.2 to 55O.1 millions is shown
AS a consequence of these large re-
ductions the reserve balances Of the
reporting institutions with the Federal
Reserve banks show decrease of 599
millions (44.3 millions in New York
City, Cash in vault, largely Federal
Reserve notes, declined IA millions"

surplus for 1919, after all charges, of
$22, 139,5S5, equal to $3.50 n share on
the $249 558,418 capital stock outstand

New-York tribune., 1920-06-28

There is no doubt that great many
people with funds to buy securities are
waiting for definite turn for the bet
ter Indeed bargain hunters have been
in the market buying stocks and bonds
on small scale for several weeks. This
demand, however, is still negligible as
market influence. One of the principal
ailments from which the market is 'suf-
/ fering has to do with the enormous dis
tribution of securities in 1919. It will
be long time before the effects of the
huge unloading of last year will have
passed. 1t may be that revival of pro-
fessional speculative effort through pool
operations in special stocks may bring
about return of public participation,
but no one who has an intimate knowl-
edge Of what went on last year and the
extent to which the public gorged itself
there can be revival of sustained bull
ish activity. Moreover, the situation
with regard to credit supplies is such as
to preclude such a possibility.
1t is to be hoped that the move Of the
Federal authorities to put amend to the
flotation of securities of questionable
worth will be successfully carried
through to the end. The crusade begun
last week resulting in the handing down
of record batch of indictments which,
it is said, will be followed by more, is
the sequel to a period of speculation
which made it possible TO sell shares in
almost any kind of company SO long as
the name it was promoted under sug-
gested that it was engaged in the pro-
duction Of oil. With the public in this
frame of mind, the shares of question
able enterprises have been gobbled up
unfortunately along with the stocks
offered by legitimate concerns, by
thousands Of persons who have been
easily persuaded by glib talking sales
men that their moderate savings could
vested in oil shares. Hundreds Of oil
companies have sprung into existence
within the last year. Thousands of in
quiries received by The Tribune's invest
| ment Information Department from all
sections Of the United States from read
ers who receive their paper by ruraI
| free delivery as well as those who buy il
on the newsstands in the larger cities
show how widely and thoroughly the
stocks Of oil companies have been dis
tributed. People in all stations of life
bought the securities offered. Many cx-
changed the best securities in the world
Liberty Loan bonds, for paper that IL
many cases represented only a prospect
OF late the tenor of many OF these in.
quires has indicated that the holders OF
oil shares purchased last year when the
boom was at it's height have begun tc
grow Suspicious. Passing Of dividends
10 generously paid when some Of these
companies first made their appearance
is the cause Of anxiety on the part OF
many. Others inquire about one stock
or another which loomed up brilliantly
for 4 tina. only To disappear entirely,

New-York tribune., 1920-06-28

In approximately three and one-half
months the largest foreign loan ever
made by American investors will fall
due. The Anglo-French loan of $780,
100000, which was foated in October,
1915, marked the beginning of a new
era in American finance. Investors were
timid in taking the bonds, and through
the five years since have expressed their
doubts in the fluctuations in the price
of the bond. For several months all
doubts as to the ability of the debtors to
discharge their obligation have been dis
sipated by the announcement of the
the loan would be paid off and not re-
newcd. 1t is now known that Great
Britain and France have adopted def
mite scheme for meeting the great ma
turtv, although the details of the ar
rangement have not been made public
The settlement will be directed from
London, and it is considered likely that
England will care for part of Frances
half of the obligation, and accept French
obligations for the accommodation. AL
ready substantial proportion Of the
bonds have been bought in, but it is
generally understood that the nations
will have to ship more gold in connection
with the operation. 1t is wholly prob
able that the British Treasury will re-
lease part of the $500, ,ooO,oo of French
gold held In London as collateral against
British loans made to France before the
United States entered the war. Reports
current in the financial district indicate
that fresh influx of gold Is imminent.
Saturdays Federal Reserve Bank
statement verified the assumption that
the improvement shown the previous
week was temporary, and was merely an
expression of momentary conditions re-
sulting from large tax payments and
interest payments of June Is. The con-
traction revealed week ago was offset
by expansion in the days that followed.
The same developments followed the
March Is period.

leaving in some cases no trace whatever
of its fight into financial oblivion.

A Wall Street banker estimates that
the public has lost close to s750,000,0 900
through the purchase Of bad securities
during the last eighteen months. 1t is
unfortunate both from the viewpoint Of
the people who have lost, and the invest
ment market. The huge amount of
money that went into questionable en-
terprises last year would 60 long way
now toward easing the credit situation.
