large part of its loss during the
year. The unusual income re-
turns, in long-term issues, even
at the advanced prices, still appeal
to the investor, apparently for
there appears to be no slackening
at present in the buying power.
Practically all the new offer
ings by the bankers have been alb
sorbed quite readily, thus indicat-
ing that the supply of investment
capital is ample. 1t may be
doubted, however, if it is ample
enough to absorb all the financing
which may be undertaken at this
, time. The bankers have gauged
the investment market well.
While time money rates are still
high, about 8 per cent, the demand
for such funds for more than sixty
or ninety days is not great. The
best grades of bonds, excepting
the fully tax exempt issues, sell
on less than 6 per cent basis
Apparently, then, the purchaser
does not believe that money rates
will remain high for any length
of time.
Savings bank" bonds, of which
there are no more than there were
ten years ago, have been especially
strong. More confidence has been
shown by investors in the loans
of the allied nations. The prompt
payment of principal when due has
resulted in the absorption Of all
such new issues as well as higher
prices for the older ones. State
and municipal bonds. with their
tax-exemption features, have ap-
pealed TO the investor of large in
come, and today the New York
State and New York City long
term issues sell on basis to yield
less than per cent. The average
investor, however, appears to
favor the low-priced railroad is
sues. Here, the income return
ranges from 6h per cent for bonds
Of second grade, to 10 per cent
and even more, for debenture and
income issues.

HN}AA WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW G2K.A
EACH WEEK THE INTERESTS WASHINGTON INDUSTRIAL BUILDING AND BUSINESS FIRMS
The Recovery of the Investment Market CONCRETE

Not in years has there been
such general public interest in the
bond market as during the past
few weeks. Advances ranging up
to fifteen and twenty points have
occurred. Those who had never,
before the flotstion of our Gov
ernment loans, known the mean
ing of the word bond, have en-
tered the market and are to
considerable extent responsible
for the present absorption Of Sc
curities.
Until the people Of this coun-
try had subscribed so surprising
ly to our various Liberty and
Victory bond issues the bond
holders of the United States had
been relatively few. The war
brought the people into closer
contact with affairs Of all sorts,
and today there are comparative
ly few families who are not more
or less acquainted with invest
ments. The Government made
strenuous efforts, not without
considerable success, to inculcate
the habit of saving among its
people. We have not been a
thrifty race. Perhaps We are not
today, yet we are making strides
in this direction.
Our. first Liberty Loan was
floated largely by the banks,
trust companies and other institu-
tons. The public participation
was small. Subsequent loans
were much more successful, as
may be seen from the increased
number of subscribers. There can
be no doubt that most individuals
subscribed to these loans because
they were prompted to do SO by a
high sense of patriotism. Those
who were actively engaged in
Liberty Loan work laid little
stress upon the security Of the
bonds. That was to be taken as
a matter of fact. This enormous
distribution Of United States Sc
curities has probably done as
much as any one thing to cause
the people to interest themselves
in matters of public concern.
Initiation and Bond Prices.
AS a result of the war there
epsued a period of initiation. This
has been followed by high money
rates with a strained credit sit
uation. Practically all forms Of
investments were depressed. High
grade bonds of municipalities,
railroad, and industrial corpora
tions fell to levels not seen before
in generations. Liberty bonds
fell nearly twenty points, so that
the yield on these issues was over
6 per cent, a rate not known for
United States bonds since the
Civil War. Small wonder, then,
that other forms of investments
should decline. At times during
The Washington times., 1920-10-20

this period it was next to impos-
sible to obtain anything like sat-
isfactory bids on many well-se-
cured issues.
Public utility bonds, particular
ly, were under considerable pres
sure and many prominent COM
panies Of this sort were forced
into receivership. Operating
costs, including enormous increas-
es in wages, without CORES
ponding increase in rates, brought
about this condition. In conse-
quence, capital became timid in
this direction and many well-se-
cured public utility issues sold at
ridiculously low prices.
The railroads, during Govern
ment operation, reported greatly
decreased earnings, and while the
Government compensation was
sufficient to pay their way, it be-
came a question in the mind of
the investor as to how the carriers
would fare when they were re-
turned to their owners. Gradually
however, more constructive de-
velopments ensued. The Railroad
Bill was passed, and it was gener-
ally realized that without sub
stantial increase in rates, the car
riers could not operate success
fully.
Demand for Railway Issues.
Freight and passenger rates
were increased, and as result,
there began a period of railroad
securities purchases. In the mean
time the deflation of commodities,
both basic and MANUFACTURED, con-
tinued, and as it had been a well
established fact that such defla-
tion meant an ease in many rates,
the bond market began to move
upward. Low-grade bonds made
large advances. A considerable
portion of this buying, it is true,
came from the speculative frater-
nifty. Gradually, all forms Of in
vestments rose until today the
bond market has regained a very
The Washington times., 1920-10-20
The Public Utilities,

Public utility bonds, which
reached a very low level, are
gradually rising in price. The
earnings Of most Of such companies
show gradual improvement, and
while capital is, perhaps, still
more timid in this direction than
elsewhere. recent public utility is
sues have been well absorbed,
but at high rates Of interest. This
financing has been done by means
Of short-term issues, o. has prae-
ticslly all recent financing, for
that matter. Many public service
properties are in dire need Of re-
hsbilitation, however, and it re-
mains to be seen how such finan-
cling will be done.
The traction situation in Mahat-
tan and Brooklyn is still decidedly
unsettled, and new capital must
eventually be raised.
1t has been conservatively esti-
mated that Europe owes US some
1880 ,000, 900 outside Of her debts
on account of loans by this Gov
ernment. This would indicate
that large amount Of financing
awaits US on this account. Already
we have witnessed the flotation
of French railway securities in this
country, those of the Gampsgnie
des Chemins de Fer du Midi
A few years ago We went
through period of undigested
securities, with rather unfor-
tunate results. 1t must be said,
however, that during the war
: period and since that time cur
bankers have shown ability and
foresight. Their cooperation
with the Government has been Of
; great benefit to the country.
Need of New Capital.
There can be no doubt that the
railroads of the country are great
ly in need of new capital. Thus
far most of the financing has
been done by means of equipment
trust issues by the roads of bet
ter credit. These securities have
been readily absorbed. There are
few forms of investments which
are better secured, as all the
equipment remains vested in the
trustee until the bonds have all
+, been paid. There has been, ac-
cordin~ to Trustworthy statement,
but one instance in this country
where a default has occurred on
such an issue. The result Of this
was that the trustees seized the
equipment, sold it. and paid tho
bondholders in full. Obviously
road cannot operate without
equipment.
While, after such sustained
rise in bond prices, it should not
be expected that there will be no
recession, nevertheless with the
outlook for a continuation of de-
flation, with a gradual easing in
money rates. bond prices should
continue upward. As stated be-
fore, there is a large amount Of
financing still to be done on ac-
count of Europe's debt to us.
We may expect, then, to witness
the flotation of other foreiyn
securities. 10 remains to be seen
to what extent the available sup
ply Of investment capital will go
toward absorbing these securities.
