BY international News Service

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-Strong dem.
onstrations" in the Motor stocks and
high-priced specialties at the begin
ming Of trading today followed close
upon the issuance of the september
and fourth-quarter reports of pro-
duction and sales of a. number of
the well-known companies. including
Studebaker and Graham-Pa,ge.
Evidences of booming BUSINESS IN
representative industries, as pre-
scented today in symposium OF
bankers statements issued at the
national convention at Philadelphia
helped to chrystalize bHllisn ,ienti-
ment in the speculative district.
The pools were ready to stage the
new demonstration as a part Oh
their Notwithstanding ballyhoo, and
promptly marked up prices Of the
market favorites 2 to points on
initial sales. Montgomery Ward
had a 6-point increase to 264. and
A. M. Byers gained S. points over
the weekend.
Start of the distribution Of $780,
900, 900 interest and dividend money
has now been made and the flow or
a good part Of these funds back to
the banks should ease up the money
market situation. The call loan rate
was per cent. with funds in good
supply and a good prospect of q
slight decline later in the day. Time
was firm at IN per cent.
Chrysler Motor carried its spec
tacular advance to above 122 for a
new gain of 3 points. General
Motors sold above 218 and Stude-
baker around 50. Yellow Truck was
in demand at 39A. United States
Steel duplicated its former high
price of 161 n in active trading In
the first hour. Trading slowed up
in the second period, and profit
taking in the sky flyers forced a
gradual reaction in prices of the

FOREIGN WORKS
GET I INC MORE
j. s. MONEY

American finance has definitely
entered into an era of predominant
ing corporate loans" in its opera
tons abroad.
In an analysis of foreign invest
ments w. r. Thor1e, finance ex-
pert of the Commerce Department,
declared today that the trend IS to-
ward corporate, rather than govern
mental securities.
Despite the fact that in many
countries there is a strong public
sentiment against foreign voting
control in their industries, United
states between 1914 and 1928 had
bought into" industries abroad to
the extent of $3,713.307, 900.
Utilities FavOrite
Public utilities, according to
Thorne, proved the favorite field
for American investors and securi-
ties of that industry amounting to
1922 ,925, 900 were taken. Railways
came a close second with S720,114,-
900, while investments in banking,
sugar. paper, mining, oil, iron and
steel and steamship companies ran
from $50 100000 to $4,000. 900.
Other investments were in wide
range of industries from motion pic
Iufe ana amusement companies 10
the textile and match business.
American capital even is going
into the great European cartels.
Thorne pointed out that money
from this country has found its
way into the chemical combine of
France, Germany and England: the
match monopoly of Sweden and the
growing Industrial machinery in
dustry of Europe Canada and Aus
traIia.

BUSINESS SEES
SOME HELP IN
ELECTION
Bx B. O. FORBES


Industry. business. stock mar
ket, all are acting on the assump-
ton that the Presidential election
result will help, not hurt.
The odds inominally quoted in
Wall Street are better than two
to one in favor OF Hoover.
Whether the stock market win yet
suffer a sharp spell Of prediction
nerves" looks doubtful.
Industry's pace has distinctly
quickened.
Railway freight is now running
above last year. The 1928 har-
vests, taken by and large. are
abundant and this cannot fail to
prove a helpful factor even though
prices for certain commodities are
undesirably low. Expansion in
construction has been .extraordi-
nary at many points, insuring
total results for the year way
ahead of 1927. Demand for steel
has again broadened, with urgent
calls for prompt delivery. Our
amazing motor industry continues
to amaze; it is breaking all rec
ords for this season Of the year.
Show Healthy Growth
Such lagsards as textiles. coal.
oil and all are doing somewhat
better. Non-ferrous metals, lead
and copper after its long period Of
dormancy, are enjoying something
approaching q boom. Consump-
ton Of electric energy shows
healthy growth. Employment re-
ports are more cheerful. Prices
for manufactured goods are well
maintained.
Retail merchandising is very if-
regular. The weather has helped
in certain sections. but has re-
tarded trade in others. Mercantile
failures are still unpleasantly nus
merous. But the general expecta-
ton is that Christmas trade will
prove very satisfactory.
Speculation in stocks goes on
very actively, despite the serious

The Federal Reserve authorities

In the eyes Of the writer, the

peculiarly fatigued. There il

 OF TRAPPING COYOTES

To enable trappers to learn the cor rect methods of taking predators, the Alaska Game Commission has issued mimeographed circular. ''Sugges- tionsa on Trapping Predatory Ami mals. The circular was prepared by E. K. Stewart, chief predatory animal hunter for the Territory, who is now in the Copper river district after making d thorough survey of the predatory animal situation in the In- terion:.
 A general statement concerning the predatory animal problem is made by Mr. Stewart in the following preface:
 Coyotes are apparently Spreading ovef the Territory. Having entered from the eastern international boun- dafy, their drift is westerly and so6utherly antif noow they have be- come common throughout most of the eastern part of the Territory
 ''lt is a well established faact that coyotes prey upon the waterfowl, ptarmigas and the grouse family. Their food habits being similar to the fox, they reduce the food which would normally be eaten by the fox and other fur bearers and by the re- duction of their food supply the fur bearers cannot increase rapidly, as they otherwise would.
 Coyotes are credited with killing fox and other fur-bearers, which they probably dos- It is known that they will run a colony of foxes out of dehs and use the dens for themselves orear sheir young. By this. in many instances, they force the expectant mother foxes out of the warm- nests that have been prepared for their young. and at 8. time of year when the mother fox cannot prepare new den, subsequently, the young perish.
