growing world market, the produc- ton of this commodity had gone forward by leaps and bounds, the growth of the export business being nothing short of phenomenal.
 Then came setback. Most of the beans and bean products had been going to the United States or Japan. America dealt a hard blow to the business by raising the tariff on bean oil in order to protect the cotton seed oil industry within the states. Japan followed this with a jarring iab when chemical fertilizers were widely substituted for bean cakes.
 Thousands of pioneer farmers in Manchuria felt the effects of these hard knocks. They saw their acres teeming with soy beans and a boun- tful crop gave promise Of fine mone- tary gains. Then they suddenly dis covered there was virtually no mar ket for their product. Many of them had neglected 10 raise a food supply on their farms. having been conf- dent that they would have plenty of cash with which to buy sustenance for themselves and their families.
 Still another factor was the usual percentage of natural failures in a new land. The Chinese differs not a whit from his fellows of other lands in this respect Some made good in their new homes despite hardships and sctbacks Others failed with everything in their favor.

Gains Made in Previous Session
 Held Firmly

New York, Nov. II tP(-The bond market presented a firm undertone today, holding the gains made in the previous session which marked a definite upturn after steadily de- Clining for nearly a fortnight.
 Bond traders were much cncour- aged by the improvement which was anticipated in view of the greater stability shown by stocks.
 The unsettled conditions haVt brought corporate financing virtually to a stanGstill. The weeks total Ct sl6,664,o0O, consisting almost en- tirely of municipal issues, ranked with the smallest Of the year, and compared with S34, 5000 last week and s45,761,000 a year ago,
 High grade railroad and utility bonds were in demand around their previous closing prices, and varia- tions were very small. Foreign bonds were quiet, and little changed. United States governments held their recent gains.

More Cheerful Temper Found On Stock Market Although Recent
 Advance Leaves Wall St. Weary
Profit Taking by Bears Sends Market Little Lower During Morning Session.

New York, Nov. IA Rt-The stock market maintained it's more cheer full temper today. although it had been wearied by the exertions of three-day advance.
 Profit taking and short selling by bears trying for a secondary reac- tion sent the market little lower during the morning, but the list looked up again before midday.
 A slow but broad advance carried long list of shares l to points above yesterdays final prices. Such shares as T.. s. Steel, American Telephone, General Electric, and American Can sold off about a point in the early trading, but these losses were converted into net gairs of a point or more. Shares advanc- ing 2 to 3 points included American Water Works, American Tobacco B, Union Pacific, Consolidated Gas, Granby Copper, Woolworth, New York Central, Goodyear Firestone preferred, Air Reduction. Eastman llu lSStlL dHu D,
 Advance Loses Vigor
 After the extensive recovery from the low levels of Monday, the ad- vance lost much of it's vigor. Trad ing was in light volume. In tha coppers, particularly. the advance slowed down. Copper metal, never theless, was reported sold as high as Il cents, and rumors of an agree ment to reduce production by 20,00O tons month received confirmation. Even at | cents, however, copper producers profits are small, and it is felt in trade circles that it may take some time 10 reduce the burdensome stocks above ground 10 normal proportions.
 The most reassuring item in the days news was probably the tumble Of $o19,000,000 in brokers loans for the trading week ended Tuesday. If the recent selling was due in a large measure to the necessity of cleaning out impaired accounts, this huge drop in loans might indicate that that particular phase had been about i completed. This further drop re- duced the loan figure to so,235, ,000.- GOO, the lowest in the four years that ! the federal reserve tabulation has been kept, and less than one-third Of the total Of September. 1929. In connection with this defation, it is notable that many stocks are now selling at levels where they can be bought outright for what it cost to buy them on margin 14 months ago.
