The anti fireworks law becomes Of.

measure passed by Council. which pro

one to have fireworks in his possession

The real teeth" in the city ordinance
are found in the section which gives
the fire marshal the right to seize all

the city. ~
Announcing his approval of the anti
fireworks ordinance, the Mayor issued n
statement in which he explained he was
supported by the opinion Of David J.
Smyth. the City Solicitor.
The ordinance, the Mayor said, Is a
complete prohibition bill so far as
Philadelphia is concerned.

disappointing in the way of spring

GOSSIP OF
THE STREET

News of the passing Of the Pierce
Arrow preferred dividend yesterday
coupled with the announcement ol
further drastic cutting of motorcar
prices, naturally exerted a decidedly
chilling influence upon speculative en-
thusasm in the motor group.
There seemed to be growing belief
on the street after the closing yester-
day that most Of the bad news pos
sible on the motor industry was now
known Many. however. did not. alto
gether concur in these deductions. point
ing out that, with the trade war now
n matter Of reality. there was every
possibility of further slashing Of
prices. which would ultimately mean
the survival of the fittest. 1t seems
motor shares. which were the first of
the war brides in. the memorable bull
markets Of 1915 and 1917, should now
threaten the destruction of market
superstructure.
The remarkable, career Of many of
these companies reads almost like a
fairy tale. and from plaything the
industry has become one Of the leading
baromeors of general trade. While
the outlook is dark and gloomy, there
is every possibility of the bearish op
erations in these stocks being as grossly
oyerdone as was the over enthusiasm OF
the bull movement. Most of these con
Germs are more valuable today than they
we're when the market prices for their
stocks were soaring heavenward. What
is more. the industry has likewise been
established on a more permanent bust
ness basis and altogether out of the pro
motion field.
There may be a complete readjust-
ment. with consultations and amalga
nations much the same as in the steel
trade prior to the organization of the
United States Steel Corporation.
No New Government Bond Issues
1t is quite possible that there will be
no further large Government offerings of
bonds in the Immediate future. On the
other hand. it is true that all foreign
governments are in need of large sums
of money and that in all probability
they will call upon the American mar
ket to supply it when they believe their
requests will be granted by American
bankers. and investors.
There is a mixed condition in this
still with respect to the finances
of the corporations. Some of the larger
ones have paid off considerable part
of large bank loans made during and
after the war. 1t is doubtful whether
they will. be in the market for some little
time with offerings of bonds or any class
of their securities. These statements
apply most specifically to industrial
Some Of them. unfortun-
ately, still have big bank loans and may
be expected to offer bonds with which to
finance for long period the temporary
Such offerings would be a
factor in the general bond market.
