STOCK MARKET
 HEARS RUMORS
 OF BIG MERGERS
Long Hope Of Business World About To Be
 Realized
By EDWARD J.. CONDLON T.aaaea Wire to Age-Herald)

NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-The real sig nificance, of the defeat of the third party as expressed by Wall street in terms of prices and, comment of its acknowledged leaders and interpreters, is not difficult to grasp. The astonishing volume of business on Wednesday and the virtual duplication of this volume on Thursday, with all the attendant hurrah and churning up of markets does not at all give the true picture. The financial news dispatches during the next few weeks and the next few months will tell what is now taking place in the minds of the leaders of the financial commit nifty.
 When reports of mergers in various lines of industry and business begin to appear in the public prints in con- crete form, it will be realized that the long harbored hope and plans Of the can hardly measure off square inch in the stock market table which does not include a stock which Is in some way linked with some merger whether 1t be in the nebulous or final stages.
 Future All Bright
 Many generalities have been uttered since election day about prosperous times that loom ahead as the result of the turn of the election. Whether or not full four years of plenty are in store for the nation is a matter, of course, which cannot be accurately fore cast but it can be quite definitely stated that the immediate future never looked brighter in recent years than it does to- day.
 The re-establishment of Europe on a firmer footing will have the immediate effect of stimulating many American in- dustries, but the fact must not be lost sight of that once Europe gains her equilibrium she will press us for trade in the markets of the world where we have had our own way pretty much since 1914.
 Money Cheap (
 If the expectations of financial lead CTS are to be fulfilled, security prices will be we'll maintained for some time to come by the increase in the investment demand and the natural tendency of business to widen it's scope of opera tions. We are assured of cheap money rates for some time to come, which will naturally have the effect of expending credit and promoting needed expansion which is to include the many mergers now pending.
 The setback in prices of industrial stocks on Thursday and the leap in call money rates to the highest level seen since May 28, last, was due, re- spectively, to profit taking and the un- expectedly large volume of stock market transactions. The action of the com modity markets with the sharp advance in wheat and the decline in cotton prices, was due purely to conditions governing those markets and did not necessarily fit in with the scheme of things in the post-election trading as a whole.

COTTON LETTERS

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 6.-The sus- taining feature of the market today was prospect for less favorable weather in the western half of the cotton region, probably rain and much colder, per- haps snow in northwest Texas and cen tral and northern Oklahoma.
 Two additional private crop esti- mates were released today, returns to the Giles bureau pointing to yield of 100000, of which 85 per cent is es- timated to have been picked against 80 per cent last year and 70 per cent gin- ned, against 74.3 per cent last year. On the other hand, returns to the Southern Cotton Go. point to a crop of only 12,263,000 bales, acreage abandoned 4.6 per cent.
 In its previous forecasts of October IS the government allowed for land abandoned and all other conditions yet forecasted a production Of 12,675,0 900 bales.
 The general impression Is that next Saturdays government report will point to a production of somewhat larger than it's last forecast which was 12,675,0 ,000, and probably show heavy ginnings to November 1. Of the 12 private reports issued so far the average indicated yield is 12,679,000 bales and the average of two private estimates on ginnings so far which range from 9,600,000 to S. 750, ,000 bales, is 9,675,000 against 7.556, 900 to November 1 last year.
 This afternoon rumor has 1t that the Fossick bureau, Memphis, is coming out with prediction of 9,900,000 ginned to October inst.
 If ginnings are heavy and the gov ernment estimates a crop of 12,s00,000 or larger market likely decline, advance of 12,600,000 or less especially if gin nings are smaller. than expected.
 Large ginnings are generally expected because of. the long stretch of good weather for picking and ginning and because of the larger crop than last year, but the crop is being gathered unusually fast, especially in the south west particularly in Texas and ginnings after November likely show marked falling off as the session grows older.
 In view of improving international trade pospects and the ability of the south to finance the unmarketed DOT ton of the crop good trade and spec ulative is likely on any decline of i'm portance.-H. & B. Beer.

The re- suits of this study, summarized, are shown in the accompanying chart.
 These results show the profits in dol lars for every $100 of capital invested capital for the purpose of the study constituting surplus plus par value or, where there Is no par value, the sesti- mates as carried in annual balance sheets. The period covered may be con- sidered a complete swing of the busi- ness pendulum. The year 1921 was one of depression; 1922 witnessed recovery; 1923 was a year of prosperity.
 Considering results of the survey by
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-11-07

three main groups, 1t is noted that pub lie utility and railroad earnings were steadiest, both being higher than indus trial profits in 1921 and lower in 1923. Averaging the three years, utility and industrial profits were the same at $6.50 per $100. The average railroad profits was lower at $4.75.
 Greater profits than in 1922 or 1921 was experienced last year by nearly ev- cry branch of the industrial group, al- though figures thus far available indi- cate that 1924 returns will be appreci- ably below the profits of 1923. The coal, copper, farm implement, fertilizer, leather and shipping industries, the sur- vey shows, did not, during the three years, rally to any great extent from the 1921 depression. The building ma- terial, household supplies, real estate and electrical equipment groups were heavy earners. Stable earning power was exhibited by the express and truck ing, tobacco, theater, printing, publish ing and gold and silver mining groups.

Of course, the industry which has made more milloinaires than any other in the last 20 years has been the motor industry. It's list is so long that one hesitates to attempt to call the roll.
 The foundation of the Rockefeller fortune was made when the oil indus try was comparatively new. Andrew Carnegie made his fortune when steel industry was in it's youth in this coun- try. H. c. Prick was making upwards of a million dollars every year from coke making when that industry was in it's infancy.
