In the Stock Market
fBv Thomson & McKinnonl

NEW YORK, May 16-About the
only life noticeable in an otherwise
listlesS stock market was in the
public utility division, where several
important units were thought to be
in process of regrouping by bank
ing interests. There was no incen-
tive to speak of in the news. Official
comment upon employment revealed
the fact that while employment was
not satisfactory statistics pointed to
some improvement, and it was sig
nif1cant where falling off in employ
ment as seasonal it was less than
normal in comparison with this time
of previous years. In this connec-
ton it is interesting to know that
labor is generally working at maxi
mum efficiency and April marked
the least number of strikes and less
industrial disturbance than any
April since records were kept. Nor
is efficiency confined alone to labor.
Management in times of depression
becomes more efficient and alert with
the result that profits per unit suf-
fered less than at first thought from
reduced volume, and lays the
groundwork for relatively larger
profit when demand does improve.
Even the decline in commodity
prices has a favorable angle, in that
it indirectly contributes to lower liv-
ing costs, an expression of which
we have in the 10 per cent reduction
in catalog prices announced today
by a leading mail order house. Real
izing this economic process, and be-
lieving in the commercial back
ground, the investor, fortified with
courage and wisdom in the past,
has accepted periods of recession to
make his investments. In this rea-
Soning we concur and consequently
reaffirm our suggestion to adhere
to the constructive side of the stock
market.

In the Cotton Markets
(By thomson & McKinnonl

NEW YORK, May 16.-New crop
options in cotton sold higher to-
day due to further heavy rains in
Oklahoma, Arkansas and Texas,
which, added to previous excessive
precipitation, will necessitate much
replanting. There is plenty of time
however, and this moisture may
prove very helpful later on. The
advance in prices was due mainly to
covering. There was some selling
of July against purchases of new.
undoing StraddleS october and later
months look to be a purchase on
reactions, as the market always is
sensitive to unfavorable weather
developments, particularly with
prices, at present levels.
