PROFESSIONAL
TRADERS RULE
IN WALL STREET
BY STUART p. WEST.

wall Street, New York, June %.
There was nothing OF conse-
eneu1e about today's dealings on
ne stock exchange except they in
d,cateds again how completely the
market is dominated by the class
az professional traders who rushed
Il buy one day and sell the next.
For a while the buying movement
which had been in progress at
thursdays close kept on. The de-
zine in Mexican Petroleum, which
allowed the announcement that the
stock exchange committee was in
vestigating it's recent spectacular
rise. was for time offset by rapid
unbidding of the Pan-American
socks. This on the theory that
they were selling out of line with
the Mexican shares for which the
American had originally given
: for l in its own stock. Opera
lions for the rise il these and a
few other industrials continued
during the forenoon in a desultory
way. Then, as it was evident that
no outside interest was attracted,
traders came to the selling side
As usually happens, when every
body decides to sell at once in a
market in which support from the
short interest has been securely
weakened, prices slid off pretty
sharply.
The investment market, in con-
trast to the speculative market,
continued to feel the stimulus CIV
en- by the reduction in the New
York Federal Reserve rates. Lib
erty bonds went up again, with one
or two new high records. What was
more noticeable was the keen de-
mand for high grade railway bonds.
This was distinctly more of a feat
ure than on Thursday. There were
advances in this group of a half
point to a point in a number of is
sues In a word, there was more
warrant for saying today than there
had been on the previous day that
the rest Of the investment list was
inclined to follow the lead of the
United States war loans. In the
money market once more the re-
action to the Federal Reserve an
nouncement was not felt in a posi-
tive shading of rates. but rather in
increased offerings at the old quo
tations Of time money and an in
creased demand by the banks for
commercial paper. 1t was one OF
the most active days so far in the
paper market, with a keen inquiry
for prime bills at per cent. This,
of course, conforms with the per
cent quotation on Federal Reserve
rediscount, but it is doubtful
whether the banks with their own
abundant surplus viii wish to avail
themselves yet a while of the re-
discount privilege.

SHAW rs OFFERED
LIBERAL AMOUNT
FOR MOVIE FILMS

London-George Bernard Shaw
has been offered 500, 900 a year for
five years by an American syndi-
cate to produce two motion picture
films each year The author made
thia announcement himself at a
dinner of the Society of Authors in
London. Declaring that the cinema
rights of a single story might be
worth $4,000, he urged young
authors not to be too ready to give
concessions to cinema producers or
literary promoters, among whom,
he said, there was unfortunately no
absolute standard of honesty.
"A man who sells a table or a
chair charges no more than the
cost of the article plus a reason
able percentage of profit, >" he said,
but nothing of the kind applies to
the publishing, theatrical or cinema
business. The truth is the whole
thing is a gamble, and producers
who make perhaps one success in
10 or 20 ventures want to make
that success pay for all failures"
