Market Comment.

A majority of the weekly market let
ters OF commission houses adhere to the
opinion that the general trend or the
market Is up, although there IS n ten
dency In some quarters to look for
rather sharp reaction especially In
stocks bid up with little or no reason.
The following are excerpts from some OF
those letters: 1--WE are OF the opinion
that securities representing corporations
which have successfully weatbered the
period OF business depression and whose
current earnings and future prospects
need cause no apprehension as to the
present dividends offer good buying op-
portunities on any weak spots. Joseph

pected at the present time buy the

pose that there Is likely TO be a periodof
hesitation, during which some individual
issues whose advance has been based
on hope or manipulation may suffer
some reaction. but this should not cause

trend should henceforth be upward -

FINANCIAL NEWS
AND COMMENT
Harding's Attitude on Ship
Subsidies Gives Boost to
Marine Shares.

Several pieces OF VS. OF direct stock
market application. which became pub
lilo yesterday morning. were seized on
by speculators. and. In consequence, a
number of issues were decidedly strong
Shipping shares were bid up rapidly
from the start OF business, aided by In
formation from Washington that Presi-
dent Harding was in favor of a ship
subsidy. Although details of the pro
gramme. If any existed in tangible form.
were entirely lacking, the suggestion
that the Administration was leaning to-
ward form OF assistance to ocean going
vessels that had been kept In the back
ground OF political events for more than
a generation was enough to awaken the
speculative Imagination. International
Mercantile Marine preferred gained more
than points. its common stock more
than point and Pacific Mail, American
International Corporation and Atlantic
Gulf were in demand at rising prices.
The strength in the shipping DEPART
ment had counterparts in the industrial
list. but railroad shares did very little.
The same force that sent steel shares
upward on Friday. namely thought of a
pending merger of large proportions, con-
tinued in effect. General Electric reached
new high point on this movement and
there were substantial gains among the
oil issues.
|
1t Is not surprising. in spite of the
clear display of firm to strong stock
market prices. that the speculative com
munity is divided into two camps In re-
spect to the price movement during the
remainder of the year. The final income
and excess profits tax payment for 1921
will come at mid-month, and If prece-
dent amount to anything. there should
be selling Of securities for the raising 1f
needed funds. In some quarters the i'm
preston Is held that the second half OF
the month will see some hardening OF
money interest rates, in process OF COM
pletion Of year end settlements and the
financing OF the Christmas trade. But
the offsetting factor to those influences
toward lower prices are the general belief
that business Is heading upward, the
expectation of favorable results from
the conference on the limitation OF arm
aments and the undoubted fact that de-
fiation OF old loans will proceed further
as seasonal demands for goods gain
ground.
The foreign exchanges yesterday were
steady In the main. sterling advancing
slightly during the first hour. In che
cotton market and in grain there was a
moderate rally.

Brings Many Millions

Aaron Sapiro, the California law
yer and cooperative genius under
whose guidance the hurley growers
have organized, has said that it
would be worth between twenty and
thirty millions of dollars to the to.
bacco men to form an organization
for the orderly marketing of their
crops. This statement Of Sapiro has
been borne out by the fact that to-
bacco which sold on the Lexington
market in January 1921, for two
three cents a pound has been resola
by Spectators who bought it at IL
to Is cent a pound when the mau-
facturer wanted that kind of tobac
co. It is believed the growers lost
twenty millions of dollars in Ken
lucky alone last year by their inabn
ity to hold their crops off the mar
ket, as many of their leaders advis-
ed them to do.
The districts as finally agreed up.
on and announced Saturday night
