RESERVE BANKS
FIGHT STOCK
MARKET
BY B. @. FORBES

The stock market fight has
now become three-sided. not two
sided. No longer IL the battle
between only the bulls and the
bears. The Federal Reserve Bank
authorities have entered the ring.
Their purpose IL not the same as
the bears. The bears are keen
to pound the market into demon.
alization. The farther they can
knock prices down, the richer their
harvest. The Reserve authorities
want no such upset with its inevita.
bly, harmful effect upon general
business.
Needs Quieting
But the financial powers that
be do desire quieting down Of
the tumuItuous speculation. They
fear the final consequences of q
quick succession OF 1900, 000.share
DAYS and skyrocketing quotations.
Thew would like to get Wall
street off the front page. They
reason that the country would
benefit were speculation to re.
turn to normal and quotations 10
less dizzy heights for those stocks
which have been daringly doomed.
The Federal Reserve Banks want
order, not disorder; calm, not
chaos; investment, not gambling.
Thus far the bull leaders have
proved astonishingly able to hold
their own against both opponents,
the bears and the reserve authori.
ties. But 1t would seepl-at least
to mean unequal battle. with
the chances all favoring the
nations financial powers.
Make More Money
Visits to brokerage offices do
not inspire one with confidence
in the markets stability. Too
many Of the tense, nervous Gus.
toners crowding before quotation
boards have all the earmarks Of
novices. Their comments usually
do not reflect deep financial or
economic understanding. The
tape alone counts in their eyes.
What happens on the floor of the
stock exchange Ia all-important;
nothing that happens off the floor
of the exchange is Of any impor-
lance. Such shallow reasoning
courts ultimate disaster.
Yet it must be admitted that
the gamblers and the SPECTATORS
have made far more money than
conservative financial and eco
nornfc students. The newcomers
have put it all over" the old
timers.
The end is not yet. however.
