Hopeful Of the Future

Alfred Newburger, the New York
resident member Of the firm OF New
burger, Henderson & Loeb. dropped in
Unexpectedly in the home Office yester-
day and expressed very hopeful opin-
ion as to the future, both from a
financial and commercial viewpoint. 1t
was his belief that the crux of the sit
uation was to be founI in tho easy
money market conditions. Bearing in
mind" he said, easy money represents
contraction In business. it Is neverthe-
less the result of very extensive and
continued liquidation and it at the same
time forms the cornerstone in the new
business structure, which is being
reared on q saner and sounder basis
than, ever before enjoyed in this coun.
try"
Mr.. Newburger was reluctant to COM
nit himself upon the immediate per-
formance of the market. but was Of the
opinion that for a long pull no one
could &c. wrong in purchasing the better
grade of stocks on every reaction. As
to bonds, he believed the possibilities
were immeasurable.

GOSSIP OF
THE STREET

Commenting on the article which ap-
peared in this column a Few days ago
concerning the number of intelligent
people who had been caught in the nets
OF the fly by night brokers. who have
been fagrantly guilty Of bucket shop
ping, an uptown banker said yesterday
that almost every day similar cases are
brought to his attention.
"At the moment" he said, 1--WE are
trying to get the affairs Of five differ
ent people Strengthened out in this con
nection. Like the broker you referred
to, we also have sent certified checks
in the hope of obtaining either imme-
diate settlement. or, at least. the shares
of the companies which these foolish
people bought. In one case we we're
able to secure the delivery Of shares Of
several obscure companies which are
now selling considerably under the price
at which they we're purchased. On the
other hand, where stocks show any
profit, we are unable to obtain deliver
les and this represents a vigorous cor
respondence over six weeks.
Something surely must be done to
stamp out this growing evil. Bucket
shopping Is going on throughout the
Street right under the very nose Of the
city officials. Every member of the
exchange Is losing business thereby, and
the public is losing thousands and thou
sands Of dollars. These illegitimate
firms are filching and swindling the in
vesting public Of millions of dollars
through a most ingenious system OF tel
ephonins and camouhaged correspond
ence."
