One of the permanent tendencies is
undoubtedly very general substitution
Of stocks for bonds in the investment
saves more than he spends. Last year
produced many concrete evidences of
this change. 1t was most pronounced
in the second half of 1928. In that
period the total amount of new bonds
sold was 81 ,635 100000. This compared
with the issues of common and pre-
ferred stock of almost exactly the same
sum but with the proportion of new
common stocks to new bonds rapidly
rising toward the close Of the year and
higher In January, 1929. than in the
last quarter Of tA2a

STOCKS IRREGULAR
|N'HEAW SELLING
Several Issues Are Bid Up,
However, in Active Short
Session.
BY STANLEY w. PRENOSIL.
Associated Press Financial Editor.

NEW YORK, August 17.-Sufncient
profit-taking developed toward the close
of today'S stock market to give final
quotations an irregular appearance, al
though the bulk Of the days activity
was on the side Of rising prices. ES-
tablishment of o new record high by
American Telephone at 295, an extreme
gain Of IL points, was the outstanding
individual feature.
Wall Street, having recovered from
the shock Of a 6 per cent New York
upset the market q week ago Friday
looks for clear sailing weather ahead at
least until Congress reconvenes. Fears
are being felt In some quarters that
agitation for an investigation Of Fed
eral Reserve policy and securities trad
ing may unsettle sentiment, and this
has caused some liquidation by conserv-
alive investors. Reports Of military
disturbances along the Chinese Russian
frontier apparently were disregarded a
q market factor.
American Telephone retained all but
2 points Of its gain. Officials OF the
company recently denied rumorS that q
stock dividend or Split-up was under
consideration. International Telephone
allied in sympathy, moving up 2as
points to q new high record for the
present stock at 100.
Packard Motors (old stock ran up
tn points to 1881, duplicating the
old high, on the publication by one
Of the financial tickers of an interview
with Charles Lindbergh on the new
Diesel airplane motor. Other motors
were sluggish, General Motors and
Chrysler closing fractionally lower.
Standard Oil Of New Jersey, which
ran up to Q new high at 1874 IN the
early trading, later fell back to 70h
losing most of its gain. Other oils
held fairly well. Sin1mS Petroleum
was o late feature. climbing 2la points
to q new high at 40h.
American Machine 81 Foundry closed
9% points higher, International Bust
ness Machines tx and Norfolk &
Western Railroad, Commercial Invest
ment Trust. Bendix Aviation and Fol
lansbee Bros. showed net gains OF
points or more.
National Lead dropped points, Elec-
trio Auto Lite ga, Safeway Stores 3h
and General Electric az. y. S. Steel
common closed unchanged at 1885
and American Can, American Smelt-
ing, Radio and Simmons Co. lost
point or more.
Foreign exchanges moved within
rather narrow and irregular limits. with
sterling cables still quoted below ths
generally accepted gold import" point

VOLUME OF BUILDING
CONSTRUCTION Says
July Figures Considerably Smaller
Than Those for Similar
1928 Month.
apeeial pispatch to The Star,

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, August 17-From two
sources today 1t was indicated that the
volume Of building construction In July
was materially smaller than In the same
month OF 1928.
The National Survey. prepared by 3.
w. Straus q Co., revealed q loss Of IL
per cent last month compared with
last year. while Dunn's Review states
that July projects for new construc-
ton involved an estimated expenditure
about 20 per cent below the amount for
the same period In 1928"
The heaviest shrinkage was IN the
cities Of New York, Chicago, Detroit,
Los Angeles, st. Louis, Minneapolis,
Rochester, Cincinnati, Portland, Greg. !:
Pittsburgh, Houston, Seattle and In
dianapolis.
Those centers where construction
activity was In excess Of last year were
Philadelphia. Boston. Cleveland, WASH
ington, D. c.: San Francisco, Newark,
Oklahoma City. Des Moines. New Or
leans, worcester, Mass; jersey CITY,
Cleveland and Milwaukee, the last
1928, Of considerably more than 100 per
cent.
The total volume Of construction
planned in July was $3.50, 156, lot. In
the same month last year 1t was $332,-
312,452. The amount was per cent
greater than in June this year.
In general building permits this Sum
mer appear to have contracted more
in the large centers Of population than
elsewhere. The smallest decreases
were in the Western States and on the
Pacific Coast. The largest gains, on
the other hand. were in New England
and In the Middle Atlantic States.
It was pointed out in one Of the re-
views that while unemployment In the
large cities is rather pronounced, there
Is virtually no labor trouble In the
building Industry" Prices of building
materials show little change and have
been well stabilized.
