STOCKS QUIET BUT. STRONGER, WHILE LOSSES REGAINED )
Reports That America Must Furnish Japan Materials
 Bolster Market
By WALTER B. BROWN Leased Wire to The Age-Herald

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-Stccks were quiet but stronger. recovering the previous days losses In most in- stances, as the reports from the Far East indicate that Americas indus tries will be called upon to furnish large amounts of materials for the reconstruction work that will start in the devastated sections in Japan. The latest dispatches from Japan which indicate less loss of life than was first understood, had the effect of stiffening the stock list toward the close so that prices finished near the top levels of the day. Easier call money which touched Az per cent for the first time this week, aided appreciably In the buying at the last.
 The drop in sterling to another new low for the year during the earlier dealings caused considerable unsettlement in British securities. Rumor had it at one time that the Bank of England would increase its rediscount rate to combat the situa- tion caused by the decline in pound sterling. No change was announced in the New York bank rate, how ever. Bonds were more active than on Tuesday, though the announce ment that the $55,000,000 Argentine loan would consist of only a six month note issue, offered at 99 E, to yield 2 per cent, instead of long term issue did not come until after the close of business.
 It was notable that traders in stocks have shown little hysteria. Sentiment has inclined toward the belief that even a temporary set back In the worlds trade could not dislocate business here to the extent of demoralizing the market to any extent. The speed with which the commodity markets recovered their equilibrium Is worthy Cf note. It is true that the trade ramification in- volved in the Far Eastern catastro- phe are not clearly defined, but busi- ness in general Is certainly not look ing toward the future with any dire forebodings.
 It Is interesting to note that the majority of investment houses are recommending the purchases of se- curities on all breaks in the market, both for quick profits and 8 long bull. A certain calmness has per- vaded financial circles this week which even a threatened Italo-Greek conflict and Japanese quake have not been able to overcome. A mid week trade reports seem to bear out the optimism felt for the immediate future, though conservatism in deal- ings will still be the order of the day in security markets for some time to come.

 The developm mentS today are re- garded generally as bringing the league fight into the open, with Eng land on one side, insisting upon re- spect for the league and Italy refus inS to abide by convenants to which she had subscribed. Lord Robert Cecil declared that the issue would be aired in the assembly.
 Viscount Ishii, who presided at to- days meeting of the council, made a conciliatory suggestion, recommend ing that Greece's latest proposals be taken up by the ambassadors.
 The underlying idea is that the situation may be, saved by the league and the council of ambassadors col laborating.
