NO DEFINITE MOVE|
 IN STOCK MARKET
Public Interest Was Apathetic and Trading Generally
 Dull
By WILL JOHNSON (leased Wire to The Age \ erald. ]

NEW YORK, Jan. 21.-Monday's s stock market was dull affair. With public interest apathetic and pool in terests making no strenuous effort on either side the market was left to shift for itself. Consequently, no definite trend developed.
 Some new highs on a belated move ment developed and the impulse was felt in General Electric and Corn Prod ucts. But that was all. The general list finished the day in a confused state.
 The drop in sterling demand was the feature of the day from a broader ried down to new lows. The weakness in exchange was explainable on the familiar ground that money is being transferred from Europe to America. Locally, 1t Is felt that a turn in the exchange market would have a power full influence on stock market senti- ment.
 As the day ended, sentiment around Wall street was very much mixed. It was pretty well agreed that the main upward trend had been checked, at least temporarily, and that the specu- lative movement taken as q whole had slowed up considerably.
 On the other hand it was recognized that operations for the rise were likely to be continued in selected stocks, even when realizing and profit-taking were going on elsewhere. It was this sort of a price movement that was seen Monday.

TO INSURE BETTER
 CROP ESTIMATES
Bills Would Provide Semi.
 monthly Crop Reports

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-Bills de- signed to insure better cotton crop es- inmates and ginning reports were intro duced today by Senator Harris, demo- crat, GeOrgia, and Representatives Rankin, democrat. Mississippi, and Swank. democrat, Oklahoma. The measures have the approval of off cials of the agriculture department and the census bureau, and were drawn as result of study of the subject by q committee of southern senators and congressman.
 One bill would eliminate the cotton acreage estimates of the department of agriculture based on farmers inten- tions to plant. The other measure would require semimonthly cotton crop reports by that departmnet and ginning figures by the census bureau, and esti- mates to be published simultaneously. The estimates would have to be ap- proved by departmental board of off cers in touch with cotton conditions.
