Two stories in connection with the eX-
traordinary heavy selling of General Mo-
tors common stock were circulated yes
terday. One was that It's dividend, due
for consideration by its directors next
Tuesday. was in doubt. The other was
that heavy selling was being done by big
stockholdng interests to register losses
for tax purposes. Under the new tax
law, however. losses of that character
are deductible only when security sold
has not been repurchased within thirty
days. One single transaction of 10000
shares was sufficient to break the stock
below 10, after 1t had held pretty firmly
there in the face of the heavy selling.
1t is believed also tnat some of the SELL
ing has come out as the result OF price
cuts announced on two ofsthe cars manu-
factured by the General Motors Corpora
tion. Yesterdays transactions in the
stock were more than 100000 shares.

just before the close there was pretty
general recession. Trading, however,
was not particularly heavy outside of
the General Motors issues and through
out most of the session a vast majority
