Brokers Opinions

Newburger, Henderson & Loeb
"While there seems to be little posi-.
bility Of an open break, there il no
doubt reactions such as witnessed last
week will become more frequent. This
ia partly indicated In the technical po-
sition OF the market as res',lt Of the sec.
ondary rise In securit- values since
June, which has been very considerable
and under the circumstances reactions
should be expected. We. therefore, rec
ommend the continuance Of the policy
to accept profits on strong spots and
wait for a moderate backset before
making new commitments. While the
general outlook has been materially
strengthened by the settlement Of the
labor disputes in the coal, rail and tex
tile industries, the fact must not be
overlooked the elimination Of these dis
turbing factors was to a large extent
anticipated and discounted by the ma L.
terial enhancement Of stock and bond
prices. The high level already attained

Wall Street Ia talking firmer money
rates. There was a moderate stifenine
in call and time funds last week, but
this was not regarded as Of much sig
nifcance, because It was brought about
to considerable extent by the rather
extensive Withdrawals Of Government,
moneys near the close Of the week.
While II Ia quite possible the money
market situation may undergo some
change during the next few weeks. and
result In the re establishment Of higher
interest rates, the best opinion is that
the market will not be more than what
may be termed as a trifle firmer. This
plus now held by institutions and the
compayn lively small demands in evi.
dence for commercial purposes.
Bankers are talking about the pro-
nounced business revival that has SCI
In, but the feeling In the best Informed
quarters Is this kind Of talk Is because
those participating in 1t desire such q
result. The facts are business, rs d
whole, has not yet expanded to any ap-
preciablc extent.
However, there has been seasonal
betterment and the outlook indicates
further Improvement In numerous linei
Of industry. It being realized with the
bumper crops now practically assured
new business will be created in sub.
stantial volume.

The foreign situation Is not without
some influence In the securities market
