NEW YORK, May Is Q.N.s.).-The
whole market was unsettled at the be-
ginning Of the week today by the
countrywide stirring up OF the old
controversy over the money situation.
Another committee Of financial ex-
perts, in a special report to President
Hoover, told OF the undermining of
the influence OF New York az q
whole money center by the big in.
crease in speculative loans," and an
increase in rediscount rates to s per
cent this week was predicted in Wall
Street.
Most OF the high-priced specialties
were thrown on the market in the
first period today at prices l to 3
points below Saturdays closing
ranges. United Corporation, which
started ith big board career with a
spectacular flourish, dropped back to
20 for a loss of ~ points from Sat-
urdays peak, General Electric at 259
was down . points from last weeks
high level, ami Radio again displayed
conscious weakness, with a drop to
S6, down is points from last weeks
high.
The wise ones in Wall Street have
given up trying to forecast money
rates, which in the judgment of the
stock market experts are entirely
under artificial control and not re-
sponstve to ecotnomic or industrial
and trade market. The bears would
have easy pickings just now, but in
Vestment buyers are generally ready
to purchase their favorite stocks a
point or so down, and this prevents
any wide break in stock prices.
There was little sign of any
general recovery in the second
hour. The high-priced speciaIties
fell of their own weight a point
or two from last weeks final prices
Gloomy forecasts of certain sec.

loose an occasional burst of selling
orders in well-known motor shares

to IS and Air Way Electrical Ap
pliance led an early spurt in the
low-priced specialties, both stocks
making 5-point gains. Erie was
ready to recover its losses in the
second hour, the stock pushing
through to 75k in active trading.
- Call money started the week al
7 per cent, but demand was light
and funds were offered at per
cent in the outside market.
