Inn. II

In today's trading longs again occu-
pied the position of comfort. Aside from
a little professional selling that appeared
during the early part Of the session,
there was no sign Of pressure, new buy
ers as rule having to take stocks from
other longs who were content with their
profits.
Studebaker was again conspicuous In
the list and is daily becoming a grea:
favOrite with the public as well as with
the professional element.
Much OF the markets activity is based
on contemplated mergers, especially in
the steel industry. Discussion along TINS
line gives a lot of latitude for the i'm
agination of traders, and as each com
pany is brought forth, values respond
quickly even to very moderate buying,
thus indicating an unusual degree of con
tidence among the owners Of the stocks
and places the short interest In a rather
embarrassing position.
Student of business conditions cannot
find very much in the existing situation
to warrant any marked enthusiasm, but
it is quite evident that the market Is
acting on the promise for the future and
there is an almost unanimous opinion
among leaders in business and finance
that we have before us a long period dur
ing which the tendency will be toward
expansion and ultimately to great ac-
tiyity, and with such sentiment 1t Is
not a difficult matter to encourage an
increased demand for securities and
higher prices following naturally.
We feel that on reactions 1t VIII be
perfectly safe to continue the policy OF
buying.
