SHORT SELLING
BROUGHT ABOUT
BY MONEY RATE

New York, Dec. 21.-On the stock
exchange today pressure became
apparent before money rates were
posted. but the opening quotation
of per cent for call loans. sug-
costing a possible furry in the
course of the day, precipItated
short selling.
Oils, equipments. steels and mo-
tors reacted one to four points.
Weakest features were Lima Lo-
connective, American Sar preferred,
Crucible Steel, Standard Oil of
New Jersey, Mexican, Pan-Ameri-
can and California Petroleum, Cen
eral Asphalt and Houston and Pa
cific Oils.
Sugars gave way on the new low
price for the refined product and
coppers developed heayiness with
chemicals and rubbers. Rails fol-
lowed their early sluggish course
at nominal changes.
The usual mixture of gains and
losses, mostly within fractional
boundaries, occurred at the dull and
uncertain opening of today's stock
market. Equipments, oils and food
and tobacco specialties again
seemed to be favored by bull pools.
American and Baldwin Locomo-
tives, Standard Oil of California,
Corn Products, American Sugar
preferred, Tobacco Products and
Retail Stores were among the few
strong issues.
Only a few of the rails were
quoted in the early dealings. OF
these, Texas & Pacific was most
active and firm.
