Element Of Strength

A great element of strength in
the present unsettled market sit
uation is seen by an unusually
well informed and conservative
broker. He points out the fact
that collateral on bank loans con-
sists mainly of the highest grade
stocks that aren't subject to dis
aStrous breaks in prices as the
third and fourth rate issues are.
This prevents serious impair
ment Of value and forced liuuida-
ton from margin calls.
This element of necessitous
selling seems to hold the key to
the future action of the market.
If people have enough faith that
business will recover even though
more slowly than expected, then
they will hang on to their hold
ings. In this case the reaction
won't turn into a break, for the
bears realize that merely selling
stocks to put them down will be
disastrous unless they can force
enough liquidation to cover.

was a good deal Of change Of
ownership In these stocks, too,
and the probabilities are that
those who bought the good rails
studied the situation thoroughly
and are ready to see it through.
POOr'S Reception
The radio stocks are having a
little tragedy all their own. The
big radio show opens at the
Garden Monday. What better
chance to give the stocks of the
leading companies whirl while
their product is in the news. Yet,
alas, the reaction had to come
along and knock whatever plans
there may have been into the
cellar.
Rumor for some time had 1t
that Radio was to be given a
whale Of q ride, earnings or no
earnings. The others would prob
ably have gone salong in SYM
pathy, as they did in the past.
Just another wasted opportunity
now, it seems, unless the market
turns unexpectedly in the next
couple of days. Incidentally, how
ever, radio companies should do
much better in this half than
they did in the first six months.
It is a question whether their
profits will be anything to write
home about at best, but they
have the best season ahead, and
the holiday gift season is coming.
One of the big stockholders in
Bullard. machine and tool manu-
facturer, told me that the COM
pany got some real business in
August. Bullard showed a loss
for the first six months and drop
ped the 50 dividend. The stock
was severely deflated this year,
falling from a high Of "a to 201s
1t is now selling around %. I
wouldn't touch it around these
levels for the time being. how
ever, even though insiders bought
the stock at IS and under. 1t is
safer to wait and see how the
market acts.
The Washington times., 1930-09-22
Third Quarter Earnings

One explanation for the cur
rent reaction Is that stocks are
anticipating third quarter earn
ings reports, which will begin to
appear next month. The general
feeling is that they will be the
worst we have seen this year. In
measure this is true. The steel
and automobile companies are GO
ing to make very poor showing.
Their operations we're way down
this summer and they suffered In
addition from lower prices.
The coppers and oils are up
against the same situation and
they are not likely to show to any
great advantage. But all is not
blue. Two groups, the to-
baccos and food companies have
weathered the depression Splen-
didly and the former especially is
going to show much greater
profits than last year. The can
ming companies are doing as well
as in 1929. There are a great
many individual companies, too,
as Wrigley, McKeesport Tin
Plate, and General Refractories,
which are earning more than last
year.
Weakness in General Electric
was accompanied by the runor
that earnings for the third quar-
ter wouldn't be much over 80
cents on the common. Since
profits for the first half were
only $1.02 per share, this would
make the current market price
more out of line with earnings.
However, net per share has al
ways accounted for only a part of
General Electric'S appeal to the
investor. The suspicion won't
down that everything isn't being
told on the company's earnings
story.

A Soldiers Death.

Prohibition Agent Lamar w. York
died in line Of duty, as soldier dies
at the front in battle. He was killed by
the enemy, lawbreaker, because he
refused a bride. He was true to his
oath as an officer of the law.
This man could have saved his life
by yielding to temptation or by mere
gesture of acquiescence in the proposal
Of the men he had caught in lawless
action. He refused and persisted.
Agent York leaves family who were
dependent upon him for maintenance.
His widow and his children should now
be the objects Of public assistance and
practical sympathy. When a policeman
dies in an encounter with a criminal,
he Is lauded, and his widow and his
children are cared for by the commu-
nifty In whose interest the husband and
father has sacrificed himself. This
should be the course in the case of the
family of Agent York.
It is well to bear in mind that the
man who lost his life the other night
was doing the work of the Government
under the law of the land. That fact
alone is all that matters in the reckon
ing of this crime and its consequences

Chivalry Is Misplaced
In Arizona Crusade

From the New Orleans Item.
romantic hubbub in Arizona for an
Apache hunt across the border will 20
for naught. The Mexican government
has prohibited the hunters from enter
ing Mexico.
This recalls the efforts at Laredo to
arrest ex-President Gales. For In both
instances hare-brained fellow citizens of
ours have fomented trouble with blithe
disregard Of consequences. Laredo
threatened to arrest Gales on an old
criminal charge, regardless Of the fact
that this might lead to international
disorders. The Arizonans calmly pre-
pared to invade foreign country to
punish band Of murderouS Indians.
The story behind the Arizona crusade
arouSes sympathy. A Mexican rancher
was raided by ApacheS, his wife was
murdered, his little son was stolen. The
Indians are supposed to have retired
to Q mountain faStne6s In Sonora. An
Arizona mayor undertook to organize a
party on this side the border to subdue
the Indians and recover the child.
Since the invasion was to have been
entirely friendly to the Mexican govern
ment, doubtless there is indignation in
Douglas over the action at Mexico City.
The adventures are invited to consider
what would be their feelings if a party
of English bloods were recruited in Eng
land to advance upon Chicago to help
some American revenge himself upon
gangsters.

@. How old was Rudyard KiplinR
when he began to write?-R. E. N.
A. He composed his first Juvenile
work at the age Of 10. At rs he was
acclaimed a genius by the public, and
the writer of more best sellers than
any other author Of the time.
@. How large a part of California
is under cultivation?-O. M.
| A. One-third Of the land in Cali
fornia Is under cultivation and probably
almost one-third more could be cultt-
waited with irrigation. California leads
all states now in irrigation, having
spent millions Of dollars on projects,
and having over 100000 acres under
irrigation at the present time.
Q. What nation controls the suez
| Canal?-A. Meg.
A. Although the British Government
holds even-sixteenths Of the shares Of
the Suez Canal, 1t is as a matter Of fact
predominantly French for the purpose
Of administration. OF the Board Of
Managers, one is Dutch, 10 are British,
and Is are French. They are said to
work in greatest harmony.
@. Why is 1t not practicable to run
automobiles with natural gas?-T. r. B.
| A. The Bureau Of Standards says
that automobiles could be run success
fully on natural gas, but the gas would
have to be compressed into steel CYL
inders, which would add considerable
weight. The amount of natural gas
equivalent to 5 gallons Of gasoline
would require enormous containers II it
were not compressed.
@. What is the method of teaching
reading called whereby the child IS
taught his letters first and then words
alphabetically and phonetically?-F. c.

A. The cotillon Is a dance OF French
| origin, and Is performed to Quadrille
music. It was a fashionable dance at
the court Of Charles x, where 1t had
been adapted from peasant dance. At
first for one, then for two performers,
it soon became a ronde dance, in which
form 1t was introduced into England.
| There are hundreds of possible figures in
the modern dance, and the accessories are
most elaborate. The cotillon Is begun
| by a small number Of couples, who oc-
cupy the floor while the rest Of the
guests sit about the ball room. These
couples select others from among those
seated, and, after going through a
| figure, all take seats and are replaced
by other couples until the whole COM
pany has danced that particular figure.
Another method is for each set OF
couples to dance a different figure.
@. Is it true that fish see but one
color, gray?-S. r.
A. The Bureau of Fisheries says that
| fishes distinguish colors, but whether
they see as many colors as we do Is not
known nor can we say that the colorS
appear to them in the same way that
they do to us. 1t would be safe to say.
however, that fishes can distinguish
more than one color.

Historic Estates Go
On Market in England
From the New York Evening Post.

From the New York Evening Post
English estates which are for sale or
rent continue to be advertised in large
numbers in the London newspapers. The
advertisements make rather melan-
choly reading, since they reflect the
difficult conditions which have befallen
the families in whose hands they have
Ions been. One would think their his
toric appeal would be sufficient to bring
buyers, but the advertisements are care
ful to note their livableneSs. THE
mansion" says one advertisement, has
every modern convenience" 1t pro-
ceeds to enumerate electric light, CEN
trail heating, telephone"
Distinguished names figure in these
real estate notices. Among the proper
ties offered for sale is Broome Park,
Barham, "at one time the home of the
late Lord Kitchener" The mansion
was built in 1885, but it is up to date
with private water supply, electric
light, central heating, modern drain
age" II not sold privately, the estate
Will be put up at auction. Kedleston
Hall, Derbyshire, the residence of the
late Lord Curzon, is for rent. A ia
cobean manor house, once the seat Of
Carew Raleigh, son Of Sir Walter Ra-
leigh, is for sale at a greatly reduced
price,"
Many Of these advertisements stress
the shooting, some of them the fish
ing also. Last seasons gamebag," one
announces, nearly 1000 pheasants, so
brace of partridge. 100 duck and nu-
merous rabbits" A Scottish estate has
5000 acres of good stalking and
grouse ground, and fishing in the loch"
This is one of a group of estates which
are for sale by private treaty" The
quaint old phrase ought to add to the
amount offered.
