B. r.. r. Rumors

Eumors current in the financial dis
trict yesterday that the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit receivership would be
lifted In two weeks were denied by
banking interests familiar with the af-
fairs Of the company. 1t was pointed
out that such a development is out OF
the question because no reorganization
plan has yet been prepared. Another
point stressed was that Ii the receiv-
ership were ended at SO early date II
would probably mean an assessment OF
between $40 and $12 share on the
stock, while If the time for taking the
company out of the jurisdiction Of the
courts is delayed for a sufficient period
the assessment would be considerably
smaller than it would necessarily be
at this time. Outstanding receivers
certificates to the amount Of $4,000, 600
mature February /, 1923. OF these
$2,2o0,000 are held by the receiver. 1t
is assumed that the reorganization
plan will provide for the certificates
in the hands Of the public.

Money and the Bond Market

Commercial requirements for money
are gradually attaining proportions
where it is expected that the banks,
which during the period Of most pro-
nounced ease turned surplus funds
into investment securities, will have
to begin liquidation of these holdings
on an important scale in order TO meet
the going demand for accommodations.
Some effect Of this process has lately
been witnessed in rne course of Lib
great disturbance Is anticipated, since
the selling will probably be slowly and
judiciously done. The investment Of
banks in government and other Sc
curities over recent months has In
creased many millions Of dollars, and
these holdings will have to be reduced
to more normal size as the demand for
credit expands.

Cali Money RnIea Firm

Opinion in the financial district was
pretty evenly divided yesterday as 60
whether continued frmness in call
money. was due to the government
operations or in spite Of them. Ad-
herents Of the latter view contended
that the banks received more than
S30o,o00,000 In payment of maturing
Treasury certificates, against only
$4e.500,000 withdrawn by the govern
ment. and that this should have made
for easy money. On the other side le
was contended that theoretically this
was SO. but in fact It did not always
work out as charted, and that the
turnover did have some disturbing
influence. In any event, the opening
and renewal rate at Az per cent was
the highets Of the week, and there was
no recession from this charge.
