STOCKS IRREGULAR
IN ACTIVE MARKET
Bidding Up Process and
Profit Taking Produce
Cross Currents.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 22.-Further
bidding up of the rubber and copper
stocks and of certain industrial spe-
cialties conceded with heavy profit
taking of a holiday character in
today's stock market. The conflict of
aim produced a session of activity and
irregular price movement.
The feature on the side advance was
the copper issues. Speculation about
the dividend action of the Anaconda
directors on Monday was heard every
where. Expectation was for a Sc an
nual rate and an extra of 81 or pos
sibly more, but there was nothing Off
ciai to this. The stock itself was very
strong, making a new high record, frac-
tionally under 1T.
Coppers Show Gains.
With Anaconda went some Of the
other copperS, notably Andes and Ken
necott. Cerro de Pasco was up over
two points and Chile almost as much.
All these stocks were subject to waves
of realizing, which they absorbed with
out much difficulty Greene Cananea
Jagged behind the rest of the group.
In the general list National Bellas
Hess crossed the 5000 mark for the
can International above 140 was at the
highest in the history of that stock. CO.
lumbia Graphophone rose rapidly for
gain of almost points. Radio, on the
other hand, reacted after its run up of
Friday and Victor Talking Machine did
little one way or the other, nothwith-
standing the official statement that the
merger negotiations were progressing
satisfactorily.
Supply and demand were about bal
anced for U. S. Steel, General Motors
and General Electric. There was no
weakness, but the selling was in suf-
ficient volume to check the advance.
The rails did little, either, although New
York Central held we'll. The oils were
not much changed. The utilities made
better showing, especially Consoli-
dated Gas, which was taken in large
blocks point or so up. The buying
here was evidently coming from power
full interests.
Weak Spots.
Among the weak spots was Schultz
Retail Stores, which dropped to a new
low for the year under steady and per-
sistent liquidation. For a time the
ticker fell behind the market, but it
caught up afterward and was able to
print volume as well as price.

PRODUCE TRADING ACTIVE
AT FIRST SHORT SESSION

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 22.-The
first Saturday session in the securities
department of the produce market wit
messed a rather active market, with
the movement of prices irregular.
Andes Petroleum, one of the most
active of the low-priced issues. was
unchanged at ga, while the higher
grade issues were featured by rise
of Is points in Interstate Trust to AGO.
Financial & Industrial Securities, at
1873, gained 11a points. National Avia-
ton, at 52A, lost half point at the
start but more than regained the loss
later.

in both types Of securities where bonds
turned down a few months in advance
of stocks, and stocks invariably fol-
lowed. Or it was during such period
as the war, or early this year when
upset credit conditions brought about
by the edit-tightening policy Of the
Reserve banks caused bonds to decline
sharply.
During the past three months bond
prices have been rising with brief in
terruptions and it Is widely believed
that after the first of the year lower
interest rates as well as increased in
vestment demand will cause bond prices
to rise still further. If a person takes

Shifting From Stocks to Bonds.

Some of the older theries regarding
investments do not recognize the fact
that stocks and bonds move together.
1t has long been pointed out by some
investment advisers that investors
should put their money into common
stocks during q period Of depression,
carry the stocks until business showed
signs of overexpansion and then shift
their funds into long-term bonds. Ac-
cording to this idea of investment he
should hold the bonds until a business
depression again brings low stock prices.
This system is not without merit. al
though one ought not to buy bonds II
he believes that the stock market will
decline. For stock and bond prices
move together very closely and not IN
of owning bonds during decline Is
merely that. high-grade bonds will not
decline as much as stocks. If an in
vestor wants to take the precaution to
shift his investments he would probably
do batter by putting his money into a
savings account or short-term notes.
In recent years this theory that stocks
and bonds move in opposite directions
during certain periods has fallen into
disuse because the prices OF both types
of securities have advanced steadily
with only temporary reactions. Some
who believe they see period OF greater
uncertainty for the security markets
ahead have recalled this theory, but
arguments.

NEW YORK, December 22.-Many
statements have appeared recently to
the effect that the advance in the stock
market has been overdone and that a
period of readjustment would set IN
during which stocks would fali, wnlie
bonds-regaining some OF their oio
fayor-would advance. The facts, how
ever. do not seem to fit such a theory.
for stock and bond prices tend to move
together and one cannot expect one to
rise while the other declines.
