Evening star., 1928-12-20

This period seems to be a good one
to study since stocks advanced on 80
days and declined on 81 days.
Rises Thursdays, Declines Saturdays.
The most unexpected result Is that
during the past two months when in
creasing alarm was being expressed over
the credit situation, stocks actually
showed a normal tendency to rise on
Thursdays Immediately in advance OF
the publication of the bank statements
which were usually unfavorable to the
future of stock prices. This tendency
is proven by the fact that on eight
Thursdays stocks ignored the money
situation and advanced, while on only
two Thursdays they declined.
The next most impressive fact Is that
while little fear was shown for the bank
statement, traders showed great un-
willingness to carry stocks over the
week end, for on only three Saturdays
did stocks rise, while they fell on seven
Saturdays. Thus If ones mind had been
made up not to carry stocks over the
week end it would usually have been
better to sell on Friday or early Satur-
day morning rather than at the close
on Saturday.
It will be interesting to see II the re-
cent break will upset this tendency OF
the market to rise on Thursdays and
decline on Saturdays.

RE|SNER TEMPLE
Notes Doom of Small Church.
Says City Best Served by
Big Sanctuary.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, December 20.-A plea
for $500,000 to complete the Broadway
Temple, the skyscraper church now ris-
ing at One Hundred and Seventy-fourth
street, was made yesterday by John D.
Rockefeller, jr., at a luncheon OF fifty
bankers and business men at the Bank
ers' Club, 100 Broadway, given by Percy
H. Johnson, president of the Chemical
National Bank and an active worker for
the temple.
Although the original cost estimate
was $4,000,000, deeper foundations and
added labor have brought the sum to
$5,500,000 for the 36-story structure.
Mr.. Rockefeller, who already has given
$25O,000 toward the project, has pledged
100000 more if the Rev. DR.. Christian
F. Reisner, pastor, raises $500, 900 before
the end Of the year.
Day Of Small Church Over.
Mr.. Rockefeller, who spoke at the
luncheon, said that the day of the small
church was over in Manhattan. He as
serted DR.. Reisner had solved the church
problem in large cities through the erec-
ton of the temple. He spoke of the
necessity for skyscraper churches to
dominate the skyline, thus giving to re-
ligion a material as well as spiritual
dominance and attracting parishioners
who otherwise would not have thought
of entering.
DR.. Harry Emerson Fosdick pastor of
the Park Avenue Baptist Church, of
which Mr.. Rockefeller is a member, said
he believed that the Broadway Temple
experiment would serve to dramatic
religion and attract the Imagination
Of the city.
May Be Tax Free.
Two new 81 900 bills were turned over
to DR.. Reisner after the luncheon by
Lewis L. Clarke, chairman of the board
of the American Exchange Irving Trust
Co., who said the money came from an
old friend Of his father, the late Du-
mont Clarke. The only other money
received was $1O0 bill from Walter r.
Clips, leather merchant, of 80 Spruce
street, who said that although he was a
Jew he always was interested sin assist
ing in any project that will help the
people"
A plan whereby DR.. Reisner hopes to
make the building tax free was advanced
when he said he hoped to convert GER

LATIN AMERICAN TRADE
WITH U. S. is EXPANDING

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW. YORK, December 20.-While
the trade of Canada with the United
States exceeds that Of all Latin Amer
lea, the trade of Latin America with
the United States is expanding rapidly
every year.
In the year Lincoln was elected Pres
ident, the United States sold $40, ,700,-
600 worth of goods to Latin America
and imported $79,110,000, making a
total of $119,810,000. Imports from
Latin America have nearly always ex-
ceeded exports, and during the last
five years the total volume Of trade be-
tween Latin America and the United
States has averaged better than $2,-
000, 100000 year.
The figures for this year are not yet
complete, but for 1927 the United States
sold more goods in Latin America than
were sold by the United Kingdom, Ger
many and France combined. The
United States also bought more from
Latin America in 1927 than these three
nations combined.
The trip Of President-elect Hoover
should have far-reaching effect In de-
veloping still more this trade expan-
sion.

NEW YORK, December 20.-The
slowing down in building construction,
which Is one Of the effects of high
money rates, continued into November
when permits, according to a national
building survey, were IA per cent less
than last year and per cent below
those of October.
The conditions prevailing appear to
affect nearly all sections of the United
States. They are, however, more con-
spicuous In the larger centers of popu-
lation such as New York, Chicago and
Los Angeles, where the greatest losses
have taken place, although a material
shrinkage has also occurred in such
cities as San Francisco, Buffalo, Cleve-
land, st. Louis and Baltimore. Excep-
tions to the general trend are to be
found in Detroit, Washington, D. c.;
Boston, Atlantic City, Newark, N. j.;
Milwaukee, Houston, Tex; Memphis,
Tenn; Cincinnati, Richmond, Va; At
lanta, and in Indianapolis.
The decline in New York last month
was over 20 per cent from the No
vember, 1927, figure and 35 per cent
under that month two years ago. In
Chicago it was 80 per cent below the
average of the two previous years. Los

HIGHER MONEY RATES FAIL
TO AFFECT D. C.. BUILDING

Angeles was down more than so per
cent from a year ago, San Francisco
about 35 per cent and Buffalo SO per
cent. In contrast was an increase in
Washington. d. c., of nearly two and
one-half times the amount of the aver
age permits in 1927 and 1925.
The States showing the greatest per-
centage of decrease last month were
California, Connecticut, Illinois, Mis-
souri,, Kentucky. New York, Ohio, Penn
sylvania and Washington. Due to re-
construction operations in Palm Beach
the Florida total was above that Of last
year. Other States that showed. gains
were Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas,
Massachusetts,, Michigan, Tennessee,
Virginia and Wisconsin.
1t has only been within the last few
months that the restricting effect Of
high money rates has been felt in the
building trade.

Raymond was In = hospital, while

chaining the boy so ne would not run

home led police to the discovery of the
orphan boys plight. A heavy logging
chain, held by two hugh padlocks, held
the boy.
The lad said he had been chained
since Sunday. He had been ordered to
wash the dishes, he said, and because
he was slow at the task his stepfather
upbraided him. Later he was placed IN
chains.
When the officers entered the place
Raymond began to cry, fearing they
were truant officers. He told them that
he wanted to go to school, but they
wouldn't let me-" johnson told police
he kept the boy from school for fear
he would contract pneumonia.

RY KENNETH s. VAN sTRUM.

NEW YORK, December 20.-Many
stock traders are constantly looking for
signs of regularity in the stock market.
| If they could find some simple event
| which occurred with reasonable regu-
| larity their fortunes would be made.
They never cease talking about such
things as "a Spring rise In the motors" !"
"a Fall rise in the retail store stocks"
or "the pools seem to stop stocks on the
fraction a." The market, however,
never does what large number OF peo-
pie expect 1t to do, for as soon as sure
road to wealth is uncovered the inter-
play of speculative forces Immediately
closes the gap. Such is the purpose OF
a speculative market.
Daily Tendencies.
It IS quite a common belief that stocks
normally rise or fall on certain days OF
the week The market will run along
for few weeks and because stocks rise
on two or three successive Mondays the
conclusion is reached that this Is the
normal situation. Usually tie bubble is
broken by a succession of Mondays on
which stocks fall. There seems to be,
however, a reasonable explanation for
some of these theories.
1t seems logical, for instance, that
during uncertain periods sentiment
might regularly change when the mar
ket reopens after the week end, or that
regularly people might become fright
ened into selling stocks on Saturdays,
not wishing to take the risk OF carry
ing stocks over the week end.
The factors which will affect the
daily trend of prices vary with under
lying economic conditions. For In
stance, in a tight money market such
as we are now experiencing, it might
be expected that traders would worry
about the effect upon the market Of the
bank statement issued late Thursday
afternoon. If 1t is true that there Is
regular rise or decline on certain days
of the week this regularly can be OBJ
served from the daily fluctuations Of
stocks during the past two months.
