NEW YORK, March 25.-Gathering
momentum with successive advances in
the call money rate from per cent
renewal figure to 10 per cent, then to
IL and IA per cent in the last hour, the
stock market broke perceptibly today.
Money has not been 50 dear since July,
1920.
It was one of the worst declines this
year and the most severe since the Feb
Iuary reaction following the Federal
Reserve Boards initial warning against
overspeculatiou. The decline was still
in progress at the close. Losses ran
from to 10 points in standard indus
trials and were even greater in some
Of the spccialties.
Selling Gains Volume.
Momentum on the decline gained
force when the cell money rate was
advanced suddenly from 10 per cent
to IL per cent after the renewal had
been fixed at Q per cent. In the last
hour money was raised to ID per cent.
the highest since 1920. On top Of
this bankers acceptances were again
raised, this time X of per cent
Liquidation, which has finally started
a general selling movement, began last
Tuesday, and since then there has been
All average decline in stocks of between
8 and 10 points.
The situation seemed to indicate lack
of confidence in the markets structure,
despite the fact that the break at the
close of last week had temporarily, at
least, improved the technical position
of many issues. Offerings came out In
volume once the decline got under way
again and some of the favorites which

The opening was characterized by
support for numerous representative
leaders, but this was soon withdrawn
when prices gave way. Radio new,
International Telephone g. Telegraph
National Cash Register and the can
stocks were bid up in an effort to
stimulate the list, but this leadership
proved ineffective. International Tele-
phone managed to reach new high,
advancing 10 points after the opening,
but the entire gain was later wiped out.
In the case of Radio, which touched 81
on the rally, the subsequent selling
broke it we'll under Saturdays closing
quotation. International Nickel one of
last weeks bear targets. also rallied for
time, but was unable to resist the
main downward tendency.
All Groups Affected.
Steel, Bethlehem, all the coppers and
a host of miscellaneous industrials and
numerous high-priced volatile special
ties suffered alike Most of these
showed initial steadiness and rallied
well up to the stocks in which larger
short interest undoubtedly exists. After
the covering movement spent itself
pressure appeared and Cancelled all the
Improvement. A few went lower than
before.
There was no change in the local
credit situation. Call loans renewed at
the 8 per cent rate in effect for several
days. AS a matter of fact, sentiment
seemed to be dominated entirely by the
money outlook There was some calling
of loans. Shortly after midday money
rose to 10 per cent.

In review OF certain industrial re-
ports. G. Mp. Murphy &, Co. says:
Annual reports of industrial COM
panies coming to hand daily bear out
the fact that 1928 was prosperous
year for American industry in SO far,
at least, as the large units were con-
cerned
Uniformly these reports show a
strong financial position with cash on
hand ample for operating requirements
and frequently sufficient to provide a
surplus for investment in securities or
for employment in the call loan market
The significance Of this condition lies
not SO much in the additional income
thus obtainable as in the stability which
a strong treasury position gives"

Rogers and Carroll in All Talk. ing, Singing ind Dancing Movie

With blaring trumpets and moan ing saxaphones, not to mention re- sounding drums and lamentlnH trombones as his media of express sion, Charles (Buddy) Rogers will .jazztune" his way across the audi ble silver screen at the strand be- ginning Sunday for 1 days for his first sound appearance as versa tile orchestra leader.
 Close Harmony" is play of back-stage life, and Rogers, as the leading male character. plays role for which he seems spiendidly fitted Doubtless his earlier training as a player in the student orchestra at Kansas University had something to do with the capable musicianship of this amazing young actor. It is certain that the Buddy Rogers fans will be agreeably sur prised to see and hear their favorite in the kind of part they always wanted to have him perform for them. And those present who were not fans before the picture began were Roserites after it ended in a blaze of musical color and romance.
