STOCKS RESIST
BEAR PRESSURE
Sales on Short Side Not
Able to Make Headway
in Small Market.
SUGAR STOCKS TUMBLE
Decline in Raw Production
Is Reflected in Violent
Fall in Securities.

NEW YORK, July 2i,-The only
noteworthy feature of today's stock
market apart from the very limited
dealings. was the stout resistance Of
fered to professional pressure. For
tho most part traders espoused the
short side, but made little impress
sion. save in isolated instances.
Railway shares led so far as the
list displayed leadership suggesting
a possible adjustment of the more
important differences existing be-
, tween the railway brotherhoods and
executives.
The usual favorites did little more
than mark time. although shipping
ard express shares made substan-
tial advances. One OF the few ex-
ceptions TO the higher tendency was
the sugar group, In which prices
fell violently in sympathy with a
sharp break in the raw product
Sales amounted to 100000 shares.

ADVISES TO HOLD COTTON
Board OF Agriculture Warns Farnl-
.ers Against Spectators.

OKLAHOMA CITY. July 81. -
This years cotton crop will bring
prices as high as those OF a year
ago, in the belief of ]. A. White
hurst. president of the board of ag-
riculture In a statement here today.
Mr.. Whitohurst urged the farmers
to follow the advice OF the American
Cotton association in marketing and
retain large part of the crop 80
that the supply will not be so tre-
mendous In o short period of time.
Predictions OF cotton firms that
prices will drop when the new
crop reaches the market was dis
counted by Mr.. Whitehurst. who
also refuted statements that tre-
mendous cotton holdover from last
year was In evidence. Demand for
the product Is overwhelming every
where, he said.
Wisdom In selling is given by Mr..
Whitehurst as the best way TO keep
present prices up. "If farmers
throw their cotton on the market
as soon as II is ginned. the price
will drop he said, "and specu-
iators will make a handsome profit
at the farmers expense"

Present Credit System Capable of
Surviving Shock of Break in Prices

DIR. b. NJ. Anderson. jr., economist
of the Chase National Bank. has
presented a detailed analysis Of the
present credit situation in the
United States in the current number
of the Chase Economic Bulletin. 1t
is the beIicf-of the writer that the
price decline which has already
taken place has left the general
credit system intact. and that no
further price declines which may
be reasonably anticipated could pos
sibly endanger it Individuai fall
ures have occurred. and the future,
doubtless. holds an even larger
number. but the resources of the
credit system in absorbing and diff
fusing losses are SO great and the
tangible assets upon which credit
in fhe United States has been ex-
tended are so great that the gen.
eral system is impregnable.
In the period between February
1, 1920 and December 1. 1920. Brad
streets price index number declined
approximately rs per cent of the
losses incurred during this period of
falling commodity prices may be
placed for the country as a whole
at perhaps $4,000, 100000. The fall
ure to make normal profits during
The Washington herald., 1920-12-13

the same period may amount to
81. 900. 900, 900. The shrinkage in the
values OF stocks and goods on hand
may amount to as much as $1,000
900, 900 or say from $4,000, ,0OO. .o00
on February to $40, ,o0o, ,0O0. 900 on
December. /.
Country's Total Wealth.
The total wealth of the country
including real estate. railroads
mines. etc, is estimated at some.
thing in excess of $500. .00o. .000, 900
The total stocks of goods in cur
rent movement constitute but q
minor fraction OF the total wealth
of the country. Losses of $1,000
00o. 900, consequently. in comparison
with the total wealth of the coun-
try. are a bagatelle.
Bank Loans.
1t is estimated that the total OF
all bank loans of State and national
banks and trust companies direct
ly connected with commodities
runs from $4,000, 100000 to s15.-
000, 100000. A substantial part of
the commodities in question is not
connected with bank loans. notably
that large part of the corn crop
which does not leave the farm, and
the materials in the hands of such
an organization as the United
States Steel Corporation which does
not borrow from the banks. Per-
haps more than S25,000.O00, ,000
worth of commodities lay directly
behind the $4,000, 100000 to s15,-
900 900 of bank loans, leaving a mar
gin of say s1l.oOo, ,0o0, 900. A shrink
age of $4,000, 100000 in the aggre-
gate values Of stocks of goods
would leave a margin of something
like $S,0o0.oO0.O 1000.
The security lying behind the total
bank loans connected with these
commodities, though less than the
total wealth of the country. Is still
very much greater than the S25, ,000,-
100000 or more Of commodities.

Water POl0er Projects
In the United Kingdom,

A committee from the British
board of trade has been investigat-
ing the water power resources of
the United States since 1918. The
second preliminary report from
this committee deals with the re-
sources in a portion of Scotland
and indicates that nine water
power schemes capable of being
developed there would furnish an
annual output of approximately
l,200,000,000 kwt. hrs. The mag
nitude of these schemes Is better
appreciated when it is pointed out
that in the year 1917-1S the whole
of the steam power stations in
Great Britain, exclusive of private
power plants, generated 4,62S,000,-
600 kwt. hrs. and consumed $780,
900 tons of coal. The proposed wat
empower schemes in Scotland
would represent the equivalent of
1,S50,000 tons of coal per annum.

November Pig Iron
Output Suffers Loss

Figures published by the Iron
Age show that the total output of
pig iron in November. 1920, was
2.9S4.soS tons. a decrease of about
$4,000 tons below the October out
put and the smallest production
for any month of this year with the
exception of May. The daily rate
of production for November is CIV
en- as 1880 tons compared with
1o5.745 tons in the previous month
and 7s,745 tons per day in Novem-
Der 1919. The November output is
at an annual rate OF about 35,7os.-
600 tons which is larger than the
production last year, but consid-
erably smaller than the output
during the war.

American Shipbuilding.

On November 1, 1920, private
American shipyards were building,
or were under contract to build, for
private ship owners 234 steel vessels
of 1,206,486 gross tons, compared
with $50 vessels of 1,236.327 gross
tons on October 1, 1920. These fig
ures do not include government
ships or ships building or contracted
for by the United States Shipping
Board. During the month OF Octo-
Der eleven new vessels were COM
pleted in American yards for pri-
vate owners. The gross tonnage .of
these eleven vessels was 43,609 tons.
