Money and Credit

Call money worked toward high
levels, although the opening and re-
newal rate was 10 per cent, the same
as on Thursday. This rate ruled for
the greater part of the stock market
session, but just before the close
brokers bid IL per cent in their anx-
iety to obtain sufficient funds to carry
them over until Monday. There was
also sitter tone to the time money
market. The announcement yesterday
that further gold shipments to South
America have been postponed until
next week was interpreted favorably.
The $10,000,000 which it is reported
will go forward will not be shown in
to days Federal Reserve Bank state
ment as loss of gold, and to that ex-
tent will not affect the reserve posi-
tion Of the bank at the close of the
week.
