Brokers Hopeful.

Some brokers at the end OF last week
we're looking for reactions In stocks, but
the general teno of comment favored
the forward side OF prices. "a decided
break In security values seems unlikely
however, reactions on technical grounds
are Inevitable and we believe may be
used as buying opportunities in stocks
of well established and successful cor
porations. & Co. 1--WE are
looking for higher prices and would buy
good securities OF all classes on modcr-
ate setbacks."--W. w. Cohen & Co. "A
reaction in prices would not come in the
nature of surprise and In such an
event we would advise the purchase OF
rails, coppers, realty, dry goods and oil
shares."-A. j. Johnson e Co. with
funds offered In abundance by banking
institutions and the supply In excess of
the demand II is a foregone conclusion
that the shares and bonds OF approved
corporations will not go begging for any
length of time."--Henry Cews q Co.
"A reaction Is overdue and the longer II
is delayed the more severe It Is likely
TO be. We would not make purchases
generally at this level without putting
In stop orders close under buying
points."--Prince a Whitley. "In domes-
tic affairs there Is possibility Of further
considerable impetus for business and
for the security markets. Clark, Childs
&c Co. while we do not deem It ad-
visable to follow up securities, especially
industrials, on rising prices, we do be-
lieve that, In view of the anticipated
success Of the Washington conference TO
create an atmosphere of security
throughout the world. in which economic
recovery can proceed. further improve
ment in the security market may be
looked for."--Morris & Smith. with
continued cheap money and the arma-
ment conference as n background the
constructive side OF tho market stil ap-
peals to us."---w. II. Hutton & Co.

Tel. & Tel. mt 117 Id.

In the last two weeks American Tele-
phone and Telegraph shares have ad-
vanced from 109% to 117h, reaching
upward to new high records nearly
every day. Much Of the force behind
the rise has been ascribed to short COW
ering. but the known satisfactory earn
ings and plans for expansion OF service
also have had considerable influence. In
asmuch as the strength OF bonds and OF
stocks frequently have been linked to-
gethcr in market consideration, it may
be that the tremendous ovcrsubscription
Of the $50, ,000,0 900 bonds of the New York
Telephone Company, a subsidiary Of the
American Telephone and Telegraph,
aided sentiment toward the stock. The
shares have been the mark for bear
shooting all of this year. The minimum
price under 96 was reached in the spring
when everything was going down. but
shorts continued their activity during
the earlier stages of the recovery, hold
ing that the amount of stock had in
creased to a total so large as to make
II unwieldy.

TOPICS OF WALL STREET.
Chesapeake and ohio's Dividend

Although substantial problems affect
ing the vital issues OF wages and rates
confront railroads, resumption OF divi-
dend payments by the Chesapeake and
Ohio Railway on Friday was interpreted
by the financial community as an impor-
tant straw indicating a more promising
outlook in the transportation industry.
The per cent. dividend of.the G. and
O.. payable on January to its stock
holders of record on December 2. had
been forecast when its subsidiary. the
Hooking Valley, voted to resume It's
dividends on the preceding day. Both
roads passed their regular semi-annual
disbursements in June. The action inn
parted new strength to the market for
railroad shares. In the opinion Of w. j.
Harahan, president of both roads. rail-
road traffic and general business are due
for Improvement but the betterment will
be gradual during the winter.

Pacific Oil.

Although the dividend OF $3.50 to be
paid by Pacific Oil Company on January
20 is the amount paid by 1t on July 20,
the company made no announcement
that the second declaration established
$3.50 as its semi-annual rate. It's sur
plus for nine months of operation was
$13.263,S51 before deduction of taxes
and dividends, or s3.79 share on the
$780, 900 shares of it's stock outstanding.
With fourth quarter earnings estimated
at s4,00o,000, the cornpanys surplus for
1921 dividends would be $15,260.o00.
Deduction of $10,5O0,000 for the two
$3.50 dividends leaves about $4,760.000
for profit and loss. On the foregoing
basis it seems fair to expect that divi-
dends Of So annually will be continued.
