an.cial Dispatch to The star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, May 3o.-Finsncial and
commodity markets remained closed to-
day in observance of Memorial day,
with the trading element in a more
cheerful frame of mind to enjoy the
holiday because OF the further recov-
cry in stocks yesterday and the subse-
auert news that the Federal Reserve
Bank rate had been kept ct 5 per cent.
This announcement had been expected.
Meanwhile, the money market dis
PLAYED continued ease and the disturb
ing effect Of the break in wheat PRICES
appeared to have been replaced by more
sober reflection.
End Of Decline Nearer.
Whatever elation the rank and file
Of traders may feel over the unchanged
bank rate will not be known until trad
ing is resumed tomorrow But at the
time the fact remains that the anxiety
over the matter has been prolonged
another week.
Many industrial stocks were near
their low prices when the market closed
for the holiday and there IL no doubt
that In spite Of its outward pleasure
over the recent performance of the
market. the Street Is very Y11tfah puzzled
over the immediate trend despite that.
The liquidation since Monday has
probably brought the end OF the de-
cline nearer.
The current phase of tAe readiust-
nert process which started the middle
Of May has carried industrial averages
down about 80 points, or within point
of the size Of the March break which
amounted to 50 points before stabiliza-
ton vas attained. The slump two
months ago terminated with a perpen-
dicular drop of IS points on a turnover
OF 5000 900 shares In the present In
stance It required only q 1000, 000-share
day to carry the averages down Ia
points in single session, last Monday
This indicates, ct least, that there
has been less distress selling than on
the previous occasion and might mean
that the stock market is again close
to the stabilirstion point on purely
technical grounds,
Investment Demand Seen.
For one thing at least the decline
in prices the past week has been OF
sufficient magnitude to place numerous
issues within a range where investment
demand might easily be attracted. The
shift of activity from industrials into
the seasoned dividend paying rails and
utilities strengthens that view.
Less alarm IL being, felt over credit
although r1onth-end settlements still
10 be arranged tomorrow may yet cause
temporary strirgency. However, all
idea Of q shortage Of funds appears to
have vanished.

FIGURES TO SHOW
TRUST OPERATIONS
Brokers' Loan Report To.
morrow Will Reveal Extent
:; of Their Buying.
BY CHARLES F. sPEARE.

epeelal Dispatch 10 The Star.
NEW YORK. May Self there /:
any merit in the claim that buying os
investment trusts was responsible fol-
the rally IN stocks last Monday this
should be verified when the brokers
loans figures for the week are pub
hShed tomorrow.
The investment trusts are believed tr
have between 5000 100000 and $780,
600, 200 out on call. Many ~ them have
invested only small proportion Of the
proceeds of common and preferred
stocks sold to the public in the first
four months of this year. The loans OF
the trusts are estimated at about Is per
cent Of the total for the account OF
stocks on the scale reported such loans
would show material decrease.
Lenders Were Awaiting Breaks"
Another condition that ought to bring
this Others" total down from the pres
ent amount Of SIS per cent of all brokers
loans is buying for the account OF cor
porations and wealthy individuals who
have had their money out in Wall Street
pending break in stocks Of large
enough proportions 10 Justify them in
making purchases. More than this, call
money has been lending at per cent
for nearly week. or at a rate which IL
not attractive either to the class OF
domestic and foreign lenders who are
largely responsible for pyramidtng the
loan kccount.
Altogether the loan total tomorrow
should not only suggest the degree OF
liquidation that has taken place, but the
extent to which the cushion" Of bucink
power under the market. about which 80
much has been said. has become an
actual, rather than potential factor.
There is much speculation concern
Ing the effect of the break in stocks re-
Gently on the numerous investment
trusts or trs ding companies which we're
formed primarily to speculate in stocks
and not to hold them Tor a long pull"
Not few Of these trusts went into
the market and accumulated stocks
when they we're at much higher aver
age than prevails today. If they were
to liouidate on the basis of present quo
tations their junior shares would show
. material shrinksge from the prices
paid for them by an eager public
A majority OF the investment trust
reports for 1923 and for the March
Quarter Of 1929 showed the DEMENT'S of
profits taken or accrued on stocks dur
ing those periods. These profits were
greatly in excess Of those derived from
F'1def1ds or interest oh securities held.
Th>s also included the high return from
leaning call money out in the Street
Call Money Factor.
Earnings for the June quarter may
feheet different set of conditions.
These have been unfavorable both for
ths trusts that make longtime invest
nents and those that trade in ana out
Of the market. The most favorable
factor during this period has been the
high average rate for call money. This
average Is now being pulled down by
the per cent rate quoted during the
latter part of this month.

er'S labor problem largely has been
solved by widespread adoption OF i'm
proved harvesting machinery, prinei-
pallv the tractor and the combine.
Drawn by tractor, A combine can cut
and thresh 25 to so acres a day.
In Kansas last year there were $4,000
imported laborers and nearly 10000
combines. Ten years ago the state
needed $4,000 men for harvest crews.
Export Situation.
Numerous factors are held to ac-
count for the glutted wheat market.
SLOW export demand is a prominent
one. Exports from last July to March
shrilnk 5o,0000o0 bushels statistics
show. compared to exports over the
same period the previous year.
Speculation. in the hope that an up.
turn in values would follow enactment
Of farm relief legislation, which has
kept prices above the world basis, has
been blamed by some authorities for
the huge carry-over.
Actually. an official OF the Kansas
wheat pool points out. there Is no glut
of wheat from world standpoint He
estimates there is only enough grain
over world requirements to last approx
imately IL DAYS. ......
Visible Supply.
The visible supply Of wheat which
can be definitely checked at terminals
week BY week, is not believed to be NOV
ing fast enough to clean out old stocks
before new wheat reaches the market.
