LIN Irregular
Stock Market
Reaction Continues Despite
Improved Outlook for
Settlement of Repara-
tiOns Problem Abroad

Diverse influences interplayed on the
fluctuations of security prices yester-
day and, although there was much ir-
regularity, the continued reaction was
measured in further slight decline
in the average quotation OF fifty typi-
cal stocks. Marked strength in the
European exchanges, rejecting be-
lief that Germany would accede to the
Allied demands in respect TO repara-
tions, impaired steadiness TO security
prices, in spite OF the marked weakness
of particular issues.
Technically in weakened position
because of their protracted spring
rally, the motor and allied shares again
led those stocks which declined, and
the reactionary movement was facili-
tated by reports of new financing by
industrial corporations.
The announcement that the Ameri-
can Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany would offer new stock at par to
shareholders was no surprise yester-
day, as it had been foreshadowed some
weeks ago when the directors raised the
dividend from 8 to 9 per cent with the;
expressed intention of facilitating the
sale Of new stock at par. The time
of the offering and thesamount, how
ever, was not known until yesterday,
and consequently the outstanding stock
receded, though moderately. Kelly
Springfield has sold s10,o00G00 in
notes to bankers and it 10 under
stood that che funds will be used large
ly for the purpose Of paying off COM
mercial loans at the banks. The tele-
phone financing is to take care of ex-
tensions and development work.
Although traders associate news
with their operations, the market Is
really responding to technical, internal
influences. All last week groups of
speculators were playing for a reac-
tion, but until the close Of the week
their efforts were vitiated by con-
structive developments. The further
rise simply added to the reasons for
technical reaction.
The succession OF price cuts IN the
motor industry has disturbed those un-
informed folk who thought that every
dark cloud in this business had rolled
by. Those familiar with the facts Of
the industry, however, knew that it was
unlikely that automobile prices would
become stabilized until price guaran-
ties expired. Many of them have run
out, and by July virtually all of these
artificial barriers to readjustment will
have been removed.
In the untitled tonnage report Of che
United States Steel Corporation, the
story of receding business was re-
peated. The unexecuted orders were in
the aggregate the smallest since July,
1919, yet the decline during April was
the smallest recorded since. last De-
cember. Ii
The strength in the foreign ex-
changes was reflected in firmness in
the commodity markets.

Good Demand for Bonds

Bond men generally speak optimis-
tically of the investment market and
say that not only are the new issues
being we'll taken but outstanding issues
we'll sustained demand. Aside from
the Northern Pacific Great Northern
joint financing operation, which, while
it caused realignment of Investments
required the raising of only about $15,-
100000 i'll new money, no large flota-
tions have been brought out and the
market has benefited from the oppor-
tunity afforded of digesting recent CT
ferings. The new Standard Oil of New
York debenture issue went quickly yes
terday. However, Standard Oil securi-
ties have such a good name that such
offerings do not constitute fair test
of general market conditions.
New-York tribune., 1921-05-11
Foreign Issues Strong

The recovery in foreign government
and municipal bond prices went further
in the Wall Street market yesterday.
Active buying of most of the leading
issues took place and in many instances
new high prices for the year were reg
istered. The French government IS
crossed par at 10oA, Belgian 6s moved
from 961a TO 97%, Norwegian 9s ad-
vanced from 1925 to 1929 and U. S.
of Mexico 5s sold above SO, new
high for the year. The strength Of
the latter issue was associated with
Washington advices, which said that
the Cabinet has decided upon its policy
with regard TO the recognition of the
present regime in Mexico. With rec
ognition of the Obregon government
bankers believe that steps will be
taken at once to the opening of nego-
tiations for resumption of payments
on the defaulted Mexican external
debt

Automobile Dividend Prospects

Reports from some of the leading
automobile manufacturing centers indi-
eating that the spring buying rush is
dwindling has led to active discussion
of the dividend prospects of several
companies. It was pointed out yester
day that the recent cuts in automobile
and tire prices were proof conclusive
that business is not holding up as had
been hoped several weeks back. This
has led to some new calculations re-
garding what action may be, taken at
the next meeting. A spokesman for
Chandler expressed the opinion that if
substantial one, but that reduction
would be ordered only in the event of
severe contraction in orders. AS to
Studebaker, it is generally believed that
the ST rate is safe at least for the pres
emf

Strength of western Europe curren-

were features of active trading in for

Sterling worked up to around the
highest level of the year, and French
and Belgian francs advanced buoyantly
on reports from Berlin that Germany
was prepared to accept the Allied in
demnity terms. German marks also
advanced sharply on the indicated set
tlement of the controversy, closing at
156 cents.
At 8.41 cents French francs estab-

No Bethlehem Wage Cuts

President Grace of the Bethlehem
Steel Corporation was qsoted in Har-
risburg dispatches yesterday as stating
that no wage reduction of the workers
at the company's plants is contem-
plated. This declaration OF Mr.. Grace
was considered as particularly signifi-
cant in view of the statements of trade
publications last week that the 20 per
cent reduction announced by the Steel
Corporation would be followed by fur
ther cuts at the independent mills,

In Wall Street
French Loan Runors

Reports persist in the financial dis
trict that the French government is to
come into the market soon with new
dollar loan hotation. Bankers familiar
with the French financial situation as
sert, however, that the reports are
premature and that no negotiations
nave been begun. The fesiing around
tho investment market is that the
French Treasury is likely TO undertake
financing as soon as the German repa-
rations problem has been settled. The
French IS, sold heSe last year, have
lately sold at premium against q
low level for the year of 96A.

Tho Paner Strike

Additional paper manufacturing
plants are expected to close to-day
as result of the failure of the mill
owners and the papitr makers and pulp
workers. unions TO get together in a
new wage agreement. A large part of
the industry suspended operations on
May !, when many Of the individual
agreements expired. More working
agreements expire to-day. The Inter
national Paper Company, the largest
manufacturer Of newsprint in the
country, has closed its plants complete
ly and not a single wheel is turning.
The Union Bag and Paper Company's
agreement with it's men expires to-day
and it is expected that it will cease
manufacturing activities. A meeting
of paper mill men was held here on
Monday, but no action was taken with
regard to the labor deadlock. A repre-
sentative of one of the leading inter
ests in the trade said yesterday that
the representatives Of the unions have
made no oveYtures relative to a settle
ment of the differences. The men asked
for an increase Of 10 per cent in wages
in the new agreement while the manu-
facturers sought 80 per cent reduc-
ton. They are apparently just as wide
apart to-day as at the beginning of the
controversy.
