NEW YORK, May 26:-Brad-

the whole, a shade more activity in
retail trade, but with less driving
force visible in several lines of in

probably responsible for the var

though the bacKwardness of the

keep final distribution below expec-
tations. Wholesale and jobbing trade

power not only for e. but also old
issues. As long as they are buying
and holding their bonds, prices cam
not very well go below present lev
els, and should evidence a slight
strengthing.
when we examine the outlook as
to the possibility of the banks chang
ing their present position we see but
two factors which might cause such
a shift during the balance of the
year.
If in reaching the peak of its long
swing bull movement. the stock mar
ket develops into a feverish squirt, it
may be necessary for certain of our
banking interests to liquidate bond
holdings in order to provide the cash
necessary for stock loans On a higher
price level. This might cause a tenn
porary sag in bond prices which
would be recovered as the furry
subsidized. If the advance in the stock
market does not develop into a spree
Of speculation but proceeds on an
orderly basis it probably will have
a slight effect upon bond prices.
THE other factor to be consider
ed Is that of crop moving which al
ways puts a seasonal strain on our
financial machinery beginning about
the first of August and ending the
latter part of October. This seat
sonal demand for additional credit
may force commercial rates up a
fraction, probably not more than Il
of 1 per cent. This probably will
cause a slight recession in bond
prices. 1t may not, however, offset
an advance that is possible between
now and that time.
IAN present indications point to
easier money and higher bond prices
during 1924. / doubt very much
whether it will be possible to buy
good investment bonds next year
at anywhere near their present
levels. From the long swing point
of view statistics clearly indicate
that the general trend of bond prices
will be upward over the next fifteen
to twenty years.
From the investors point of view
the present bond market offers a
real opportunity. Prices may react
slightly on either of the two develop
ments outlined above. but I am not
all sure that the investor who waits
and tries to pick these exact low
points will save enough to make up
for the interest he may lose in the
meantime. If you are buying securi-
ties for a regular income I suggest
that you buy sound, long term bonds
now, and that you continue to buy
them for the remainder of 1929 as
funds become available"
General business is holding its
own in spite of the slackening OF
trade in some lines. The index OF
the Babsonchart shows general ac-
tivity at 5 per cent. above normal
within / point of the high point for
this year.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1923-05-26

WELLESLEY HILLS, Mass, May
26.-"Should the investor buy long
term bonds now or wait in hope of
getting them at lower prices?"
The question is uppermost in the
minds of the investing public. A
gain of two points in conservative
bonds since last March has been
welcome enough, but there seems to
be a great deal of discussion as to
whether it is the beginning of the
long swing upward or whether 1t will
be offset by another reaction such
as that ruling in the bond market of
the first three months of this year.
Roger w. Babson's statement on
the situation. issued today, presents
evidence which deserves careful con-
sideration by everyone interested in
the future of investment securities.
Money rates n easy" according
to Nj. Babson, land will continue at
about their present position for some
time to ONE.
January saw Commercial Paper
at 41s per cen on the average. In
February it rose to 4 u per cent.
March brought it slightly above 5
per cent. In April it ruled at SO
per cent. Early May brought it back
to 5 per cent. Present indications
+ that it will continue at about
this same level throughout the sum-
mer. Time Loans have been made
by the banks on about this same
basis, while Mortgage Money is
available in the East at 5 per cent
to 6 per cent.
Prom the point of view of the
bond market this easing in money
rates indicates a slackening in the
demand for commercial loans, an in
crease in reserve on the part of our
banks and a shrinking up of the in
creased credit necessary to finance
the sudden squirt in business at the
beginning of this year. Since 1t is
the habit of our banks to invest sur
plus funds in bonds as reserves grow,
and to liquidate these bonds when
commercial needs demand increased
borrowing on the part of the general
business public, it mea that the
banks of the country have turned
from a policy of selling their hold
ings to a policy of buying them back
again. While there are no figures
available on the effect that bank
purchases and sales have on the gen.
eral investment market, it stands TO
reason that the banks represent the
largest single customer for bonds in
the country and that their position
must have an effect on bond prices,
When the banks were selling they
not only removed their purchasing
power from the bond market but
flooded 1t with their own holdings
When they reversed this position the
stream of bonds that has been COM

Coal Exports Gain

WASHINGTON. May 2s.-Exports
of a~nthracite coal during April were
three times as great as those OF
Aprii a year ago. according to fig
ures prepared today by the Com
merce Department, while bituminous
coal exports almost doubled during
April this year those OF April. 1922.
A part of the increase was said to
be due TO the reduction Of German
coal output in Europe following the
Ruhr occupation. although the coal
strike in the United States in 1921
had also some effect.
Anthracite exports for April 1898,
amounted to 421,s22 tons, against
1O9,290 tons q year age. while btu
minous exports were 1,5S4,S79 tons,
against 714,995. in the same month
