Stock Prices
Fairly Quiet,
But Irregular
Energy Behind Covering
Movement Of Diminished
Strength; Industrials Are
Up; Exchanges Recover

The week started with exceptionally
violent price fluctuations, and against
this recent background the quietude
yesterday in the principal markets was
all the more striking. The days
fluctuations left little changed the
market Interpretation Of impending
world events of financial bearing.
In the stock market the energy be-
hind the covering movement of Tues
day was of diminished strength, and,
although there was no reaction, the
market was swept by speculative cross
currents and irregularity developed.
An upward tendency toward the close
carried the average of industrial
stocks higher, but the mean price Of
rails dropped shade after the
temporary squirt of the previous day.
After the setback Of Tuesday the
European exchanges, which at the be-
ginning of the week fared dramatical-
ly upward, were strong once more yes
terday. although the summit prices of
| Monday were not attained. The firm
ness of sterling and the Continental
exchanges is predicated on the expecta-
tion that readjustment of the
European economic situation by inter-
national agreement is imminent
Speculation for the rise in the ex-
changes was encouraged by informal
press reports purporting to represent
Prime Minister Lloyd Georges plan to
have Great Britain release the govern
ments which borrowed from it for
war purposes from their obliga-
tions. Until Lloyd George makes pub
lie any financial program that he may
have prepared it seems futile to assess
its practicality. Yet spectators and
even international bankers revealed
keen interest in the vague reports,
and discussed the question Of inter
Allied debts freely in private converse
tion.
In the cotton market there was a
recovery, after an early decline, maxi
ing the net change gain Of Is to 35
points. Hedge selling again offset the
constructive factors in the wheat pit,

Reserve Bank Credit Policies

Edwin R. Kennel, deputy governor Of
the Federal Reserve Bank Of New
York, described the credit policy of
the local institution in an address de-
livered yesterday at Utica before the
meeting of the Knit Goods Manufac-
turers of America. He said: "Asser-
tions have been made by the unin-
formed that the fall in prices has been
due to so-called credit restriction pol
icies by the banks and the Reserve
banks. 1t is not the function of the
Federal Reserve banks nor the func
ton of any bank to attempt to regu
late the movement of prices. Bank
ers are concerned only with keeping
their funds in liquid condition, with
a proper margin of reserves, so that no
solvent borrower may apply to them in
vain for the accommodation to which
he is entitled. When pressure grew
severe upon the Reserve banks they
applied the natural remedy, and the
one accepted in all other countries
with a we'll organized banking system,
Of advancing gradually the cost of bor-
rowing through the discount rate, so
that business might see in the higher
rates an accurate reflection of prevail
ing business conditions. So also the
lower Reserve bank rates now in effect
are reflection of the return move
ment Of credit conditions to a sounder
basis"

United Cigar Stores Financing

G. A. Whelan, president Of the
United Cigar Stores Company, in COM
menting yesterday on the proposed $5,-
100000 issue of preferred stock to
finance the establishment of 500 addi-
tional stores, pointed out that no
financing had been necessary during the
war and the succeeding period, not
withstanding the high cost of money.
To-day" he said, "we owe nothing to
the banks, and our outstanding COM
mercial paper, amounting to $4,000
900, is more than Offset by cash on
hand. The s5,oOo,ooo Of z per cent pre-
ferred stock that we are issuing will
put us in very strong financial posi-
tion and enable US to open hundreds
Of new stores as business conditions
look satisfactory and renting becomes
more normal and therefore cheaper.
There is every prospect at the present
time that our volume Of business,
amounting to about $80,000,O00 in 1920,
will reach figure not more than 81
100000 less than in 1920. We look for

t;lence that orr business will return to
its former stride"

MARCH CONTRACTS
 WENT OVER HE 19 CENT MARK IN N. Y.
General Staple List Closed Barely Setady, Net Eight Points Lower to One
 Point Higher
Ny Associated pre.A

New York, December 2S.-A con tinuation of the recent buying move ment sent the price of March con- tracts up to 19.O5c m the cotton mar ket here during today's early trad ing. There was increased realizing above the 19c level, however, and prices eased off later with March selling back to 1S.70c and closing at 1S.74c. The general market closed barely steady net points lower to 1 point higher.
 The opening was somewhat irreg- ular owing to the circulation of Jan uary notices estimated at about $500 bales. They caused little scattering liquidation or near months. but after starting 1 point lower to points higher, the market soon turned firmer owing to the steadiness of Liverpool continued favorable reports from the goods trade and the apparent absence of any selling pressure from the south. For time trading was active and a broadening commission house demand was reported on the advance which carried January up to 19.06c and May to 1S.54c or about 20 to 24 points net higher. This made an ad- vance of over cents per pound from the low prices touched shortly after the publication of the governments crop estimates during the middle of the month, however, and evidently attracted realizing.
 There also Was some scattered sell ing for a reaction on belief that the technical position of the market had weakened, or that further ad- vances were likely to meet increased hedge selling, prices eased off in con sequence, January selling down to 1S.stc and May to 1S.25c in the late trading or about 4 to points net lower. Business was comparatively quiet on the decline and the selling was attributed chiefly to local Wall street and western accounts. Private cables reported quiet market in Liverpool, but said prices were higher on rather more encouraging business prospects.
 Houses with both Liverpool and con tinental connections were among the early buyers here, but the demand from both the trade and shorts tap cred off materially after the forenoon advance.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
 By AssOciated Press

New Orleans, December 2S.-The quick stopping of January notices, combined with a better Liverpool than due. put the price of cotton sharply higher in the early trading today but after advances of 12 to 80 points much realizing came from traders on the long side. the upward movement was checked and reactions brought about. At one time selling was heavy enough to put the trad ing months 3 to 12 points under the close of yesterday but in the late trading there was less pressure and small recoveries occurred so that the close was points up to ? points down. net on the session. After ris- ing to 1S.21c January fell off to 17.9oc and closed at 1793c
 Notices for 500 bales were issued but did not circulate at all. They were stopped before the market opened and several brokerage firms stated that they had instructions to stop any number of notices. During the reaction from the first advance the market had steady enough un- dertone, the steadiness being derived rom reports of continued improve ment in the spot demand, telegrams from Dallas saying that spinners were calling cotton in that market and were even taking interest in short staples, something that have been considered a drug on the mar ket
 Reports received here from dry goods markets of the country were considered highly encouraging, caus- ing buying for long account on the recessions.
