In the Stock Market
by Thomson & McKinnonl

NEW YORK, May 22.-It is IN
fortunate that the advisory council
of the federal reserve board did not
see At to make public just a little
more information when recon-
mending an advance in rediscount
rates. We would like to have had
some enlightenment on how great
a reduction in brokers loans is de-
sired and also how a reduction in
loans is to be brought about when
new financing largely in common
stocks, is being undertaken on its
present large scale. A glance at the
yearly range Of stock prices shows
many declines ranging from 25 to so
or more points in a long list of
widely held securities. The shrink
age in values runs into very large
figures and the drop in brokers
loans has been comparatively small.
Frankly, the whole problem is be-
ycnd me The element of surprise Of
course. had more or less been re-
moved When it became known last
week that the move to increase re-
discount rates was gaining adj
heTents in reserve circles. We doubt
very much whether the higher dis
count rate will bring about the liz
uidation hoped for by the reserve,
although it will quite likely serve as
an additional check to any pro-
nOunced bullish enthusiasm.

WHEAT PRICES

Corn and Oats Lose in SYM

Changed.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, May 22.-Wheat flu
lures opened sharply lower today at
bottom prices on the crop in SYM
pathy with weak foreign markets.
Declines at Buenos Aires produced
sudden lowering Of world wheat
levels. Corn and oats lost as longs
were frightened by actor in wheat.
At the opening wheat was Is to
IL cents lower, corn was off q to
is cents and oats were 4 to Is
cent lower. Provisions we're little
changed
The situation in wheat offers lit
tie encouragement to buyers since
recent bullish factors, such as less
favorable winter crop news, need
of rain in Canadian northwest and
well-liquidated condition Of futures
market, we're unable to cause more
than temporary rallies. Weather
over the southwest is now generally
favorable. Foreign demand of
North American wheat is again
quiet, importers being disinclined to
look for future shipment and are
filling requirements from floating
stocks.
