MOVIE TICKER
BIG FACTOR IN
BOOM, BELIEF
Playing Moving Tape
Has All Thrill Of
Horse Race, Writer
For A. p. Declares

NEW YORK, May 24.-The movie
ticker, which flashes across an il
Eliminated screen a running story Of
the days stock transactions in hun
dreds of brokerage houses throughout
the country, is being hailed in Wall
Street today as m of the primary
factors behind the wild speculation
in recent years.
Once stock traders sat around the
customers rooms of commission
houses and watched boys mark I'D
quotations On huge boards, either
with chalk or printed cardboard num-
bers, as they were called out by other
young men who leaned over tickers.
The number of stocks quoted ranged
from so to 200 with the boards show
ing the opening, high, low and last
price, and occasionally the previous
close and the high and low Of the
year. The boards were often poorly
placed and completely visible to rela-
lively few persons.
These boards are still In use but
they have been supplemented in near
ly all of the large brokerage houses
by the movie ticker. generally placed
above or TO one side Of them, where
NuGg hAa. Dc SGGH Dy everyone III the
room. These illuminated tickers
magnify the tape on a long narrow
screen as il energies from the ticker,
giving a quick and detailed recount
of all transactions. This has whetted
the speculative appetite of thousands
and created many new ones, the thrill
of seeing ones stock quoted at ad-
~vancing prices on a heavy turnover
being akin TO that of the race track
devotee who sees the horse on which
he has placed his bet come thunder
ing down the home stretch in advance
Of the field.
Trading against the tape. which
previously was confined TO the privi-
legged few who were able 20 stand
over a ticker and base their speeu-
lative judgment on the manner in
which stocks were taken or sold
largely a question of volume-has
been made possible for everyone by
the movie ticker, which has immeas-
urably increased the number Of tape
readers. A stock breaking through a
previous resistance point. either on
the up or down side, in volume in
variably attracts a large speculative
following.
These movie tickers are now in use
in a majority Of the $50 large cities
throughout the country which are
provided with stock ticker quotation
service.

Farley Is Called

WASHINGTON, May 24.-lP-
Twice turned down at the white
nous after having passed success
eve congresses, the Hanger
farm relief bill leaned on uncertain
supports at the capital today a.
leaders continued TO sound but ser
timent as to what should be done in
view OF the few remaining days OF
the session.
There was considerable doubt
whether an attempt would be made
70 override President Coolidge's
veto. While opinions seemed 10 be
ABOUT evenly divided that such a
course be followed, Senator McNary-
republican, Oregon, co-author Of the
measure, believed il would be futile
10 endeavor TO muster the tw%o-thirds
vote necessary for passage over The
presidents objections, despite tha1
more than that was obtained on first
passage in the senate.
McNary. who is chairman or tho
senate agriculture committee, called
. meeting Of that group today 70 dis
cuss a plan OF action. The house,
which passed the bill 26 votes short
OF the required two-thirds, will not
act officially on the veto until the
senate disposes OF IL. Representa-
tive Haugen, republican, Iowa, who
neiped frame the measure, declined
70 comment on the veto.
That the farm issue, failing Of
settlement before congress recesses.
Will be injected into the maneuver-
lngs at the republican national con-
Vention next month is regarded as 4
certainty by political leaders IN and
out of congress.
Secretary Hoover and Frank O.
Lowden, chief c~ontenders for the
delegate support at Kansas City are
divided on the subject. The cabinet
officer is regarded as holding views
similar to those Of Mr.. Coolidge,
while the former Illinois governor
IS a staunch advocate Of the Nc
Nary-Haugen bill. Vice President
caves also favors this method OF
o. fitting the problem. while both
N ap@ors Curtis Of Kansas and Wat
J. of Indiana have voted for the
e.ieasure.
Meanwhile. farm leaders furnishde
additional views today on the veto.
George N. Peek, chairman Of the
executive committee of the north
central states agricultural confer
ence, said the presidents message
compared in "intemperateness and
Wholesale misinterpretation Of the
provisions Of the measure" with
messages of President Buchanan
