Market Problems.

"Why is it." said the old trader to
his broker. that the general public,
so often referred to as in or out of
the market, is on the buying side OF
the trade nine times out of ten, and
cannot be talked over to the short
side, no matter how powerful the
arguments advanced, or the evident
trend of value to a lower scale?"
That's easy replied the broker,
1.-The public is generally optimistic on
the market. 1t stays out until there
are radical and unmistakable signs Of
an advance, generally until the
market has scored big gain, when
traders finally decide to take a chance,
not infrequently waiting until there
are inside hints of the end of the
bull movement.
They fool themselves with the
belief that they are investors and not
spectators, and assure themselves
that they will wait only for a few
points advance. The short side never
appeals to them for the reason that
they could not take the chance of
selling something they have not got.
They might be caught in a corner or
some other calamity happen"
Now you tell me- continued the
broker. why is it that the average
occasional trader will take a few
points profit and hang on desperately
on declining market for many
points loss?'
Give 1t up" said the old trader.
though I'll admit that it is true, for l
have had recent experience myself in
the same habit. for 1t is pronounced
enough to be called habit.

= NEW YORK, May ia further
downward reimbursement of production
toward consumptive requirements took
past week, and the market was more
or less unsettled and irregular. In
some lines the demand was fair, but,
generally speaking, buyers were con-
sentative, and small dealers were
from abroad. Pig iron was easy as far
as prices were concerned, but there
We're evidences of some Improvement
In the demand at present levels.
While no general demand has de-
Veloped for copper. prices have been
firmly held, with sellers evidently en-
couraged by statistics indicating that
the worlds takings for consumption
last year exceeded production by
about la per cent, the production
being placed at 1,373,600 tons and the
deliveries into consumption at !, 3S4,200
tons.
Tin has ruled fairly steady. Con-
Stunning demand has been light al
though it is expected to increase in the
near future, as stocks in dealers
hands are not heavy.
Lead shows less activity as current
needs have been largely supplied
through recent purchases. Although
prompt and May shipment are scarce.
supplies for June promise to be ample.
Zinc declined Slightly owing to con-
tinued liberal offerings. but demand
continued light for both export and
domestic account. .
Anthony was a shade lower and de-
nand less active.

Book values Of bank shares are gen.
orally supposed to represent the quick
assets of the institution. although the
realization on some Of the assets
which represent employment of cap
ital, in part at least, might frequently
require some little time.
Looking over the book values Of
local bank shares gives the impression
that realization at the given value
would be very easy for the great ma
jority of the national, savings and
trust institutions.
Book values are especially deceptive
when applied to shares in banks, as
they do not represent actual worth
this fact being due to the presence Of
so many assets that do not show,
that are not scheduled. and are
concealed" etc. In reality. they are
neither. They simply do not show in
statements so long as there is no
necessity for liquidation.
Values Closely Studied.
Good Will has no place in the
statements of a bank, and vet no one
could fail to see actual value in the
big going institutions with tens of
thousands of depositors; realty values.
as stated before. shown on published
reports of banks show actual values
in but few instances; investments in
bonds and in other securities are fire.
quently carried at quotations far be-
low market prices.
In the actual market there are evil
dences that investors take close note
of the various things that go to make
bank shares more valuable.
That the layman may be able to
note these market pointers as to
values, there are reproduced here
with actual book values per each 800
of capital stock of the banks of the
city, together with the bid and last
sale prices.
Big Difference i'm Values.
In instances where there are no
quotations given, the stock of the
bank indicated is not on the official
trading list of the local stock ex-
change. hence there are no quota
lions to make public.
1t is interesting in considering the
quotations presented to note the diff
ference between book value and
actual prices. The Riggs National
reports 169.43 book value and the
stock is up around 334ha, and but re-
! Gently. before the unloading of a
block of stock, was up in the 340s.
Likewise the Washington Loan and
Trust Co, with a book value of 296.25
is quoted at 400. There are a num-
Der of national banks that have an
actual value far above book figures.
All the savings institutions listed
are among the leaders in their group,
although here, as elsewhere, there
are some very fine institutions
where the stock of the company is
held very closely and no effort has
been made to obtain exchange listing.
Figures presented are up. to and
including the business of Friday last.
Banks are shown in groups. as they
are usually classified.

GOVERNOR HUNT
SUPPORTS THE
TRAINING CAMP

Arizona's governor has sounded
the clarion call to the governors of
other states in a letter to the COM
handing general of the Eighth
Corps Area, giving his heartiest
support to the Citizens Military
Training camps. Governor Hunts
letter follows:
Such a movement as the Citi-
zens' Military Training camps must
naturally have the support of every
governor who is interested in car
rying out the military policies of
the United States as laid down in
the National Defense act. / partic-
ularly appreciate the fact that the
young men attending these camps
are chosen at an age when the dis
clp1lne and obedience taught, as
well as the patriotism and good cit
izenship, are of immense value to
those young men in preparing them
for their duties as future voters
and citizens of the republic. 1t is
my earnest wish, and I presume
the wish of every loyal citizen of
the United States, that this country
shall never be engaged in another
war, but until such time as there is
absolute assurance that this may be
a fact instead of a theory, I believe
that the training of young men to
defend their country, if needed, is
a necessary training in the duties
of citizenship
ARIZONA is gratified with the
selection of point within this state
for the holding of the Citizens Mil
ltary Training camp, and / do not
believe that in the entire southwest
a better location could be chosen
in August than the post of Fort
Huachuca, with it's beautiful sur
roundings.
Assuring you Of my support in
this movement and the boys who
may thus be trained to fit them
selves for positions as officers and
noncommissioned officers of our
trained military forces, I am
VERY sincerely yours,
GEO. w. P. HUNT,
Governor of Arizona"
