In the Stock Market
(By Thomson & McKinnon)

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-Another
increase in brokers' loans. Its up to
a total that few years ago not a
banker living would have thought
possible. Frankly we fell less con-
cerned about loans from a strictly
banking standpoint than we will
when loans are billion less. Some
times we jump at a conclusion with
out full realization of all the facts.
Did you notice in the prediction
figures published recently something
over fourteen million new voters
registered? That tells you in another
way how rapidly we are growing.
Now just take pencil and paper
and do little multiplying. Most
of these fourteen million working
and saving a little and if the saw
ings average but 500 piece year,
think what that means ir financing
The market problem, as we see it is
not the aggregate of loans but the
commitments of the individual. If
well proportioned to his resources,
there is nothing to worry about. If
it's too big let the individual cut
down. That's the way to maintain
stability and bull markets.

GRAINS ADVANCE
ON RECEIPT OF
BAD CROP NEWS
Traders Believe Wheat Will
Hold Steady If Sales
Are Absorbed.
BIZ United Press

By United Press
CHICAGO, Nov. 2.-Corn con-
tinued to advance on the Board of
Trade today aided by unfavorable
weather in all parts of the belt.
Wheat and oats lacked individual
news, but gained in sympathy with
corn.
At the opening wheat was up Il
to q cents, corn was Il to Is cents
higher and oats were up 1s to Il
cents. Provisions were not quoted.
Traders believe that wheat will
be able to hold steady if it can abb
Sorb the selling incidental to the
final movement of the spring wheat
crop. Canadian arrivals continue
large but storage space is not such
problem as it was a short time
ago. The cash market has been
showing a steady tone.
The corn belt reported heavy rains
which will interfere with the move
ment of the crop. It generally is
believed that the government corn
report, which is due Nov. 9, will con-
firm the bullish private reports is
sued yesterday.
Light receipts have been holding
the oats cash market firm. The
futures remain dull with no de-
velopments to warrant q decided
trend in prices.

of gullible public.
There is nothing "sem' nor "pseudo" about
the monster mentioned above, nor is there
any room to doubt the integrity of its finders.
For this colossus, which has not yet been named
was recently uncovered by the Fourth Central
Asiatic Expedition of the American Museum of
Natural History. The expedition headed by
world famous scientist, DR.. Roy Chapman An
drevs, with such assistants as Professor Walter
Granger, fought its way through almost unbe-
lievable perils and hardshps to bring back
eighty of precious relics of vanished ages
Some of these were filled with the bones
of the colossus which, when reconstructed, will
dwarf any animal which man previously has
imagined.
The Great Cobb Desert, that Wild wind -swept
expanse of sandy wasteland of Inner Mongolia,
was The goal which the expedition sought when
it set out. Here 10000 years ago, populations
crowded each other for elbow room and life was
flourishng and free. But the whirling years
do not count mans comfort. and once verdant
valleys today are dunes of desolation.
