The most important development

wheat trade was profoundly discour-

At the. same time cotton has
reached a new high level for the

another season of exceptionally large
returns. Last year it took all the
money the farmers could make to pay

BY STUART p. WEST.
Special Correspondent Of The Star.

NEW YORK. October 21.-The i'm
preston given by this weeks Wall
| street operations is that considerable
! doubt exists in the minds Of investors
and spectators alike as to the exact
position Of things. 1t is not that any
less confidence is felt in the business
outlook taken as a whole. The ques-
tion entirely is how far the improve
ment in trade conditions, which has
already occurred, and which Is reason
ably likely to occur during the next six
months, has been discounted by the rise
| in security prices.
The check-up on the advancing ten
| dency of the bond market, which be-
gan to be noticed a month ago. is still
apparent 1t can no longer be set down

Rather 1t is due to the realization
| that the decline in interest rates. which
| started in the spring Of 1921. when
vast sums Of capital commenced to
!i1ow back to the banks from Industrial
uses. is over.
Commerce Absorbing Capital.
Now signs are multiplying that the
reverse movement has set in, that
commerce is absorbing and will
absorb more and more the money
was being put into the security mar
kets. No great advance in money
rates need be anticipated, but rates
have ceased to go down. and this
means that the upward tendency in
investment values which started in

september. 1922 Is probably at an end.
SO. too. the speculative stock mar
ket IL puzzled over the question
whether 1t has not gone TAR enough,
for the time being at least, along the
line of discounting trade recovery.
Its answer is that the general price
movement must be uncertain and that
the logical thing is to pay attention
only to individual values.
What has been going ON during the
past week Is simply series of indi-
vidual movements. Influenced by spe-
cial considerations such as the ability
