Stocks at Low Price Levels
as interest Is Focused
on Railroads

NEW YORK, Dec. with the
exception of the railroad stocks and
few of the industrials and spe-
ciaIties, stock prices settled to lower
levels in the early trading today.
Railroad shares continued the up
ward movement which waAtin prog
ress at the close of yesterdays ses-
sion, the Western stocks being
helped by the announced decision
of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. granting an increase of
about 6 cents hundred pounds on
grain products from Colorado to
destinations in Michigan and Wis
consin.
Market rumors credited the forth
coming address to Congress by Pres
ident Coolidge as being verv favor
able to the railroads, particularly
the proposed amalgamations of.
Strategic lines.
The convening session Of Con-
gress is, generally regarded as q
bearish factor in the stock market,
since it is expected to give disagree
able and the so-called radical mem
bers of Congress an opportunity to
air their views before the country,
and force undesirable changes in
new legislative measures. Combined
with the temporary tightening OF
call money and the uncertainty over
the reserve bank rediscount rate,
anticipation Of reopening OF Con-
sress next Monday was held re-
Iponsible for a considerable por-
! ion of speculative sellinP today.
The motor stocks opened lower,
and continued to move downward
a few points. with Chrysler leading
the way. The Motor Accessory
stocks were also reactionary, with
Murray Body exhibiting conspicuous
weakness in its abrupt decline to

New York Institution Seeks to
Enter Local Field,
Report Says
By RICHARD HATTON

How many banks are enough
for city the size of Washington?
When this city was considerably
smaller in population than It is to-
day there were fifty-two banks in
operation. Today there are forty
two banks in the District of 'Colum-
bia. In some high financial opinion
banking conditions would be more
satisfactory if this number was re-
duced to approximately thirty-two
institutions.
eli is possible 70 hear opinions
and arguments on both sides OF the
question as to the advisability OF a
reduction in the number OF banks
serving the people of washington
and each side of the question has
its advocates. The main argument
OF those who support the idea Of
fewer and larger banking institu-
tions is, Of course, the greater sta
bility, the wider service and the
more solid foundation Of the big
institution.
Opponents of the fewer and
larger bank idea maintain that
numerous small banks tend to
liyen competition and to reduce
rates for service. The question Of
branch banks does not enter into
the equation as both opinions agree
that the branch bank is a logical
development of the times.
Bank Merger Hinted
Coincident with the discussion re-
garding the most satisfactory num-
ber of banking institutions comes
the runlor Of possible combinations
between existing banks and the re-
Toi-t that one of the oldest and
largest banking institutions in New
York is seeking q Washington con-
nection. In facr, the gossip In
financial circles .uns to the effect
that this large New York organiza-
ton for several months has had
scouts" surveying the local bank
ing situation with a view 10 enter
ing the field here through absorb
ing control of one or more WASH
ington institutions.
In speaking of the possibility OF
the aboye-mentioned New York in.
stitution acquiring control or
washington bank. one banker
stated today that this could be
done either by purchase outright OF
by the acquisition of enough stock
to guarantee it majority repre-
sents ton on the board. Several
existing banking institutions are
mentioned in connection with the
New York rumor as is, also, the
case in regard to a purely local
combination looking toward re-
duction in the present number OF
local banks.
The persistence of these rumors
lends color to the belief that there
are changes in prospect in the
financial -ayout In Washington.
Whether they concern one or more
of the larger financial Institutions,
ar a large and a small institution
or several small banks and an out.
of-town organization, probably will
be disclosed shortly after the new
year. Il is understood that one or
more banks here could be purchased
at the right price," and 1t Is be
neVed that there are interests,
either in Washington or New York,
prepared to pay that price.

Drinking Among Children.
There has been much loose talk
obout drinking among young people.
7, has been a favorite theme among
those who have never reconciled
themselves to the passing of the
saloon
The propagandists who want the
return of what they choose to call
the good old days" of licensed Ii
amor never fail to emphasize the
case Of a boy or girl drinking. And
some good-intentioned people are
msled into the false conclusion that
drinking is more prevalent among
Young people than it was before the
advent of the eighteenth amendment
and Mr.. Volstead's law.
The board of temperance, prohi-
bition and public morals of the
Methodist Episcopal church set a
bout to determine whether school
children were drinking strong liquor
as much as they did before prohibi-
ton

Those who seek improvement. who
condemn the sensational and immor-

peal, should be quick to lend their
financial and moral aid to better
pictures built upon a higher plane.

strides in quarter of century.

have been consigned to forgotten
