Prices Higher,

Stock Market
Technical Position In
fluences Traders, Who
Cause Rally After Set
back; Rail Shares Quiet

Again transactions on the Stock Ex-
change were expressions of the fuc-
tuating whims of professional spccu-
iators, rather than of n great mass of
outside individuals throughout the
country. Changes in the trend during
the day were, therefore, the result of
expert estimates, of the technical posi-
tion of the market. In the morning
the tendency was lower, especially
among the industrial stocks. Short
selling facilitated the process but
failed to bring out fresh liquidation
on significant scale. AS result
traders covered their commitments and
so doing caused recovery in the after
noon, despite rise in the call money
/ rate again from z per cent to TIA.
At the close average prices of both
industrial and railroad stocks were
higher than on the previous day.
1t was clear that the technique of
the market place itself rather than
outside news motivated prices. The
motor shares, which had been con-
spicuousiy weak, were steady yester-
day, despite grouping on one day Of
many price cuts. The changing price
level has upset consumer confidence
in the stability Of existing prices,
thus depressing the automobile trade,
and has been to that extent superficial
ly unfavorable. However, fundamental
| ly the adjustments are helpful, because
students of the industry agreed that
q lasting revival would not come until
prices fell The trade itself felt that
! it was only a matter of time for these
cuts to come, and it seems constructive
to get them out Of the way. BY July
most of the dealer price guarantees
will have expired and the last artificial
| barriers to stability removed.
! In reacting to the announcement of a
! IL per cent reduction of the return to
railroad labor railway shares were list
less. They fluctuated uncertainty in the
morning and later in the day were firm,
but scarcely buoyant. Railroad execu
tives expressed disappointment over the
award, but spectators appeared to re-
gard it as favorable. The actuality of
the decision was at least up to expec-
tations. The indications that the $780,
| 100000 debt of the roads to the gov
ernment might be funded was favor
able consideration in the minds of
traders.
With the first German reparations
payment completed the European ex-
changes continued firm yesterday. Cot
ton prices, nevertheless, were a trife
easier, but wheat quotations for July

Cut i'm Coast-to-Coast
Freight Rates Expected
Plan Would Reduce Charges
On Eastbound Foodstuffs
Is to 25 Per Cent

Negotiations between the Eastern
trunk line railroads and the transcon-
tinental roads, including the Southern
Pacific and the Santa Fe, are expected
to result in definite action soon on the
proposal put forward by the latter lines
to reduce transcontinental freight rates
on certain commodities, in order to
meet water competitionr on shipments
from Pacific coast points
The plan would reduce the rates from
10 to % per cent on east bound ship
ments of peas, rice, beans, canned goods
and dried fruit, and may be effected
without the prior approval of the Inter
state Commerce Commission provided
consent Is obtained from the Eastern
trunk lines receiving freight at Missis-
sippi points.
The proposed reduction on west
bound shipments, however, requires the
permission of the Interstate Commerce
Commission in order to release rail
roads from the provisions Of the long
and short haul clause of the Federal
law. These reductions would cut the
rate on some iron and steel products
from $150 per hundred weight to $1.05
per hundred weight, and on some other
iron products to 1925. Other redue-
tlons in varying percentages will be
proposed on west bound shipments OF
canned goods, paints, building paper,
wall paper, book paper and floor cover
lngs. On receipt of the application the
interstate Commerce Commission IS
expected TO set date for hearings on
this proposal in accordance with the
regular procedure.

General Motors

According to an analysis Of the posi-
ton of the General Motors Corpora
ton, prepared by Hornblower & Weeks,
the big motor-producing organization
is doing everything to cut down over
bonus and other such charges have
been reduced" tho firm says, "for
which s9,378,000 was charged to in
come account in 1920. Production of
Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Oakland,
Olds and Scripps Booth cars for the
first quarter Of 1921 was 24,629, against
96,421 in the first quarter of 1920.
Accordingly reasonable estimate of
the first quarters earnings may be
made on the basis of 1920 profit pas
senger car produced, or S5,40o,000 be-
fore taxes and depreciation. Deprecia-
ton and taxes would take at least S2,-
400, 900, leaving S3,000,000 available for
dividends. Quarterly dividends in pre-
ferred and common require S6,605, 900
On this basis, to earn current dividend
requirements, would call for quarterly
car output Of 41,000 cars, or, roughly,
40 per cent of 1919 and 1920 average
production. The balance sheet of De-
cember 81, 1920 showed inventory of
Sl64 $4,000 and notes payable of S72,-
1000. Based on frst-quarter pro-
ductlon, it is probable that inventory
was lquidated at least S15,0O0,00O and
by June 80 may be cut down $4,000 =
600 to $50,000,000, 80 that bank obliga-
tlons have doubtless been materially
reduced

The Reparations Payment

Although definite information rela-
tive to the disposition that is TO he
made of the 35,733,0O0 paid into the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York by
Germany on reparations account is not
available here, bankers directly inter
ested In the operation expressed the
opinion yesterday that the funds would
be allocated in the near future TO the
different Allied governments by the
Reparations Commission. With the dis
tribution effected the funds would like
ly be kept on this side and used by the
several governments to pay for COM
modities bought here and to meet
financial obligations falling due from
time to time. Belgium, according to
the terms Of the Treaty of Peace, has
first call on the reparations payment,
so that that country is expected to get
the biggest portion Of the amount paid
in New York The Federal Reserve
Bank OF New York will hold the repara-
tions deposit pending receipt Of fur
ther instructions from the Allied com
mission

Acceptances Outstanding

Bank and bankers acceptances out
standing on April / in this country
aggregated $664,092,113, compared with
S199,001 ,237 year ago, according to a
compilation of the American Accept
ance Council. This was a decrease of
Is per cent. The Kansas City Federal
Reserve district was the only one to
show gain over last year, while
losses in the other districts ranged
from 5 to 80 per cent. The smallest
shrinkage occurred in the New York
district, where acceptances outstand-
ing on April were within $27000,00
of the total of $487,057 ,597 reported a
year ago. An important factor in the
maintenance of the volume of accept
ances in New York City is the heavy
influx Of import bills into this market
and the large increase in bills to Gre
ate dollar exchange. On the other
hand, stagnation and low prices in
the specialized markets, such as cot
ton and wool in Boston, cotton in the
Southern states, silk and grain in the
West, and meat and foodstuffs in Chi
cago, account for the quite general de-
cline in the respective territories.

UrugNayan Loan OF

Negotiations for a loan Of $4,000,
600 to the Republic OF Uruguay, to be
hoated here by tie local banking
group, are reported to have been broken
off by the representatives of that gov
ernment The bankers impressed the
Uruguayan financial agents of the
necessity Of meeting market conditions
here, which would have meant putting
out an issue that could be offered on
better than an 8 per cent basis. The
terms were cons dered excessive, it is
said. According to the local banking
view. Uruguay IS likely to resume nego-
ti2tions again III the not distant fu-
ture. The situation with respect to the
projected loan to Uruguay recalls the
ia lure CT the negotiations carried on
here some time ago for loan to Ar
gentne by New York banking group.
In this case also the terms were re
garded as excessive by the Argentine
representatives, while the bankers
were unwilling to underwrite the
amount sought by the South American
republic.

No Large Foreign Issues Expected

Bankers conversant with the finan-
cial position of most of the leading
foreign countries assert that no large
foreign loan fotations are likely to
be arranged in the country during the
remainder Of the year. The dollar
needs of Great Britain, France and
Belgium covering requirements tt the
end of the year have been provided for
already. The possibility of the cffer-
ing here of German reparations bonds
on Allied account is not considered
seriously by American bankers. who
have made it clear that this market
is not in position to absorb any
large amount of such securities

Germany's Foreign Balances

One of Wall Streets bankers, who
has made careful survey of financial
conditions in Europe, has received in
formation that the German interests
have unusually large balances in Bel
guim. In fact her balances there are
understood to run far in excess of
those in other foreign countries, sales
of German paper marks in Belgium
having ap9rcximated 5000, 900 since
the end OF the war. a portion of these
balances were transferred to New York
via London to meet the first repara-
tions payment.

Corporate Financing Heavy

Corporate financing in May ran into
large figures in the aggregate, the total
amount of new security fotations by
American corporations reaching ap-
proximately 1926, 900, 900. This com
pared with 1920, 0,97O,750 in May, 1920.
The largest single operation was the
offering of $90.000,0D0 in new stock by
the American Telephone and Tele-
graph Company. Total corporate hnan-
cling since the beginning of the year
amounts to 81 ,443, 100000, compared
with $1,753 100000 in the correspond
ing five months of 1920.
