RESERVE RATE GAIN
EFFECT DOUBTFUL
Decline in Market May Be
Due to Increase or to
General Motors.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK. August 13.-The ex-
act effect of the New York Federal
Reserve rates increase was hard to
determine today because Of the COM
plicating factor of the General Mo-
tors dividend. Such declines as &C.
CURED in stocks might easily have
been sympathetic with the sharp drop
in General Motors. which was follow
ing the familiar principle that a IA
vorable incident long awaited was apt
to have been fully anticipated.
The Federal Reserve action might
have been taken two ways, either as
a local readjustment to the per
cent rediscount quotation prevailing
over the country or as a warning to
spectators that the market had been
going ahead too fast. The fact that
there was no general and no precipi-
tate liquidation as on past occasions
when the reserve authorities have put
UP rates seems to answer this QueS-
ton.
The raising of the rediscount rate
was probably correctly described as
being a subduing but not a seriously
weakening influence in stocks. 1t had
it's effects in bonds, especially In the
United States Government issues,
which were uniformly lower, the Lib
critics as group losing more ground
than on any day in some time.
Call money was not affected, but
time loans for the short dates were
somewhat tirmer. In the longer time
loans covering periods from four to
six months. the rise of the last month
had anticipated the action of the re-
serve bank.

She was II when she was married to
the Sultan in 1921. The three other
widows are of pretty Circassian types.
The widows pleas have been re-
ceived with hooking in the Turkish
papers. One of the papers says,
"Since they preferred to follow the
traitor to remaining loyal to Turkey,
they ought to be punished by being
obliged to follow their master to his
last resting place and remaining be-
side him to their end" The late
Sultan is buried in Damascus.
