Severe Break in Final Trad

BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 8.-The stock
market crashed today in the most
sweeping decline of the year. Radio
broke wide open, closing at 296, down
72 points on the day and 124 points off
from the high for all time, made only
Tuesday last.
The low prices were reached at the
close, when selling orders poured into
the market in overwhelming volume
Nothing like it has been seen in years.
Support was entirely lacking, with
no effort anywhere to stem the tide,
Wright Aeronautical at 2l5 was off 26
points. Montgomery Ward at $40 was
down "a points. Chrysler, one of the

ing the last two days of falling prices,
Slumped directly at the end for loss

The copper stocks were weak. with
Greene Cananea down over points and
Kennecott at new low on the decline.
Just as on yesterday. the marktt was
the weakest in the last few minutes OF
trading. 1t was then that prices melted
away.
For the first hour the list was under
heavy pressure and almost uniformly
lower, but there was nothing spectac-
ular about it, The rush to unload
came just before the gong rang for the
final trading Apparently few wanted
to carry stocks over the week end.
Others were forced to sell. In other
cases stop loss orders were uncovered,
which accelerated the decline.
The opening was irregular but with
losses predominating.

been any doubt that bonds have an i'm
portant place in any we'll planned in
vestment list.
Early this year the bond market Suf-
fered from sharp rise in the cost of
short-term credit. Bonds, representing
long-term credit, were passed by in
favor OF call loans and other Short-term
mediums of investment where the re-
turns were larger. AS short-term money
rates rose, bond yields also rose. Rising
bond yields meant. of course, that bond
prices were declining.
In March the yield on all classes of
high-grade bonds averaged 4.37 per
cent: by August 1t had risen to 4.59
per cent. AT this point it was clear
that bond yield rise had been oVerdone.
Insurance companies and investing or
ganizations bought heavily, and at the
same time short-term money rates be-
came easier, causing bond yields to de-
cline until November 8.
Future Of Bond Prices.
For the past month bond yields have
again been rising, and it now looks as
though they will remain at present lev
els until after the turn of the year. At
that time it is expected that lower
rates for all classes of credit will again
cause falling bond yields.
Recently public buying of bonds has
been negligible, for all interest has been
fixed on the gyrations of the stock mar
ket. Bond men are of the opinion.
however, that when investors find that
large speculative profits in stocks are
not easy to retain they will again turn
to bonds.

MONEY STRINCENCY AFFECTS
FLOW OF GOLD TO NEW YORK

The fact that money is scarce is srp-
ported by the rise in long-term money
quotations. These are now back to ap-
proximately the high of the year after
declining nearly l per cent during the
autumn. There has, however, been no
advance in commercial paper rates so
that business is not yet affected by the
high quotations fixed on all loans made
for speculative purposes.
With stocks off an average of 10
points since the end of November. 1t
is expected that there will be some re-
lease of funds to the market, which wiA
help to balance its requirements be-
tween December Is and the end of the
year Bankers, however, expect to see
a high average both for call loans and
for time loans until the effect of the
January disbursements wears off and
currency employed during the holidays
returns to them. In other words, there
is at least another month in prospect
of high rates, with which those who buy
stocks on margin must reckon in max
ing their commitments.
For this reason and because of the
scare that has been thrown into the
army of small spectators who Thurs
day had their first baptism under fire"
more moderate movement in prices
and a smaller volume of market trans
actions Is temporarily expected.

BY KENNETH S. VAN sTRUM.

NEW YORK, December 8.-Aside
from the eternal hope of getting rich
suddenly, there are two chief factors
which are responsible for the increas-
ing popularity of common stocks. First.
the common stockholders investments
will grow in value as the country grows.
The second is the fact that common
stock dividends increase with the cost
of living for rising commodity prices
means greater profits for most compa-
MES, so that they can pay higher divi-
dendS These facts have been proven
by statistical analysis.
Many investors in their. haste to in
vest In common stocks, however, seem
to overlook the fact that profits are
greater on common stocks bought when
business is poor and stock prices low
than when prices have been boosted in
period of great business activity.
When to Invest.
1t is impossible, naturally to know
exactly the right time to buy stocks.
The best rule seems to be to invest
when one has the money. This policy,
however. applies only to the current
savings of an investor. If he invests
his total capital at one time, he is
gambling that prices are either over
valued or under-valued. However, if he
invests his current savings regularly
over a period of years, some invest
ments may be made when stocks are too
high, some when stocks are too low.
The result will be a good average price
and his investments then will have every
opportunity of growing in value along
with industrial progress.
Future Cost of Living.
The fact that common stocks main
tain steady purchasing power whether
the cost of living rises or falls has been
used as an argument in their favor
against bonds. Today, however, many
believe this argument has lost much OF
its potency, for in order for stocks to
hold real advantage over bonds in
this respect the cost of living must
rise Living costs probably won't de-
cline until the gold supply of the world
used as a basis for money-increases
faster than the ordinary requirements
of business.
Mining engineers say that there is
little possibility of new discovery of
gold significant enough to make prices
rise sharply Instead, they are predict
ing declining cost of living by saying
that the amount of gold being mined
cannot keep up with the requirements
for the metal for money.
Trend Of Bond Prices.
With the danger of a rising cost of
living removed, for the present at least.
and with the stock market at such
heights that common stocks are yielding
considerably less than high-grade bonds,
the attractiveness of bonds increases

NEW YORK, December 8.-One of
the first and natural effects of the
stringent money conditions has been an
abrupt change in the direction of the
gold flow. Already Canada has begun
to send back gold taken when Canadian
exchange was at premium recently.
Indications yesterday were that at
least $30,000,000 would come from the
Dominion to New York, now that Ca
madam dollars are at discount.
There may also be another substan-
tial import from Europe. After the
movement westward. was checked last
month by the temporary decline in
money rates there developed an unfa-
vorable sterling market in which to buy
gold in London for New York.
The 10 per cent rate for call money
early this week and the IL per cent
rate later challenged money lenders all
over the world, who were pouring funds
into this market yesterday and receiving
a rate of 10 per cent that carries over
until Monday. Banks have again been
experiencing a withdrawal of deposit
tors money for the purpose of lending
it out in Wall Street at rates which are
so high that they are very little affected
by the service charges put into opera
ton three months ago.
