BONDS ARE STRONG
IN LATER TRADING
Market Receivers Toward

ing Is Completed.
by r. II. RICHARDSON.

speclsl Dispatch To The Star.
NEW YORK, June 19.-Todav's hind
market turned strong in the last hour
after weak opening and an IRREGULAR
period during the morning and early
afternoon hours, Volume totaled nm
der sl0,000,000, or $4,000, 900 less than
that Of Wednesday.
The early weakness was due 10 an
accumulation OF forced selling orders
resulting from Wednesdays decline in
stocks, and the strength in the last hour
was reflection of the drying up of
such selling, combined with the natu-
raj puoyancy Of prime and medium
grace bonds after touching new low
levels for the year.
In the earlier trading MANY issues
mad suffered severe Setbacks.
Because Of the declines of the past
Few sessions the flow of new capital is

recent offerings at a time when listed
prices dropped until the offering levels
Of many new bonds are entirely out of
line and must be marked down.
The municipal market was slightly
disturbed Dy the news that bank fall
ureS In Florida may result in some
postponement Of interests on municipal
bonds there because of municipal funds
being tied up in the insolvent institu-
tons, but this condition is regarded as
likely to bring merely temporary de-
faults. Otherwise there Is a brisk de-
mand for municipals, prior lien railroad
issues, United States Governments and
other high-grade descriptions classed as
legal investments for savings banks.

GLASS BILL STIRS
DEBATE IN STREET
Plan to Curb Speculation Is
Not Looked Upon
With Favor.
EY gOHN L. SINCLAIR.

epecial Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK June 19.-Senator Glass
bill to discourage in every possible way
stock market speculation. as we'll as TO
amend the banking acts to give Reserve
member banks a greater part of the
earnings of the Federal Reserve banks.
is not looked upon with favor in Wall
street.
While Senator Glass calls his bill
the banking act of $780, and says that
its purpose Is to provide for the safer
operation and more effective use of the
assets of national banking associations,
II regulate inteTbank control. to prevent
undue diversion OF funds into Sp2cu-
lativc operations, and for other pur-
poses" wall street is suspicious of any
thing which tends Tn curb its own
activities and develop something new.
The Glass bill authorizes Statewide
branch banking by national banks in
those States where State branch bank
ing is allowed by law. but it would
prevent member banks from borrowing
on their direct notes at Reserve banks
or lending funds to brokers for specu-
lative purposes.
Senator Glass contends that the pro-
vision in the Federal Reserve act per-
uniting member banks to borrow on
their straight commercial paper and
relend to brokers has been frishtfully
abused in the last two years Hence
his suggestion to eliminate straight note
borrowing.
Another provision of the Glass bill
would give savings deposits a prior lien
. on the part of the assets of national
banks. requiring these banks to hold
savings banks securities up to an amount
equal to the amount Of the savings.
Hearings on the Glass bill will doubt
les be had. So no attempt to pass the
hill will be made at this session of Con-
gress.
While 1t is true that the Stock Mar
ket has as yet little. if any, banking
support. and that three New York banks.
including the NS,ional City. are believed
to have been Jig sellers of stocks in the
last 10 days the precipitous and disas-
trouS market decline of the last two
weeks has had to reckon with another
factor just as important as stock selling
by the banks. that is. the public apathy
towards stock buying at this time.
In the present decline. the blue chip
stocks are being thrown overheard be-
fore the speculative ones-that is, the
good ones are being sacrificed at any
price while the cheaper, 'near-silk' ones
are being held" said one large broker
Yesterday. This is mad and disastrous
psychology, but everybody is doing it
and nobody buying. with very little
banking support coming in, there can be
only one result-a further decline in
stock prices"
Needless to say, the air around Wall
Street is so thick with pessimism that

TARIFF
AGITATION CEASES
Senator FeSS Claims Other
Nations Have No Cause
for Complaint.

Foreign agitation over the new tariff
law has ceased, Senator Fess of Ohio
said in a statement issued last night
through the Republican National Com
mittee.
LAS a matter OF fact, foreign coun-
tries have no cause for complaint" he
said. The restoration of prosperity
of the United States through employ
ment to American workmen makes for
a large market for foreign countries
in the United States for raw materials
and luxury and other goods"
The Ohio Senator. who has been de-
cided upon as the new head of the Re-
publican National Committee. said
statements Issued "by the Democratic
Press Bureau" had endeavored for
partisan purposes to misrepresent the
effect of the tariff in its effect upon
foreign countries and thereby stir up
among them opposition to the United
States" This, he said, was "a deliber-
ate injury to American industry and
commerce for purposes of partisan
Ship
The present depression, Tess con-
tended, was due to the delay in enact
ment of the bill. which he attributed
to the opposition in the Senate through
filibustering and other devices"

BROKERS SENSE
REACTION

Warnings of a technical correc-
ton were sounded in brokerage
circles today. Some apprehension
was felt over the fact that the
commodity markets turned weak
yesterday and also because Of the
inability of the market to so
through the July resistance points.
AS far as the average prices
are concerned, the market has
made a triple top and any reac-
ton from this point may be
regarded by the bear clique as
evidence that the market cannot
go through its July tops. We are
not inclined to agree with this
viewpoint and feel there is not
enough speculative interest on
the. long side to crown any bear
operations with much success

There have been plenty of op-
portunities to buy stocks in recent
weeks so that this particular
time need not be utilized at least
until the market proves itself -

stocks reflected the more encour-
aging Iron Age survey yesterday.
United States Steel was weak

to the rumor that the deal be.
tween the two would go through,
It is now being fought in the
courts. Bethlehem. however. has
made money this year and should
cover its dividend by an ample
margin.
"A lot of Bethlehem is still held
by bankers at much higher prices
as a result Of the new stock of
fering last year, and it looks as
though they have been averaging
up. I said sometime ago that
Bethlehem was cheap about 80
and I consider it q buy If 1t goes

They. are talking of a SO divi-
dend on United States Pipe and

strength in the stock. The rate
now is 50. The next divid. md
meeting is in January. Those
close to the inside, however, say
it is. far too early ia even think
Of the dividend. Earnings have
been good. The move in Pipe is
due more to pool activity than
any immediate developments. It
may go somewhat higher. It was

PRICE INDEX
STABILIZED

Commodity prices in August ap-
pear to have reached that much
to be desired though not often
achieved condition known as sta
bility'' in that only trifling de-
crease in the Bradstreet's Index
Number was recorded as result
of operations during that month.
For instance, the index number
as of September l was $1O4,253
which marked a decrease of only
two-tenths of l per cent from
August / with six groups Of COM
modities reporting an advance,
SKA decline and one group un-
changed or If individual COM
moditieS are considered an ad-
vance in %. decline in u and
no change in 81.
This appears to have been the
result of crop damage due to
drought and heat impinging upon
prices of breadstuffs, live stock
and provisions, food products in
short, among the leading groups,
whose advances about counter
acted declines in textiles, hides,
leather and oils.
The September / Index Number
while marking only fractional
decrease from August shows a
decline of 1917 per cent from
January / of this year, a drop Of
IT'S per cent from September !
a year ago and of 21.5 per cent
from September l, 1928. Com
pared with the number on De
cefi1ber /, 1925, a decrease Of n
per cent is shown while as COM
pared with the June l, 1921 num-
Der from the peak of all time on
February l. 1920, is just 80 per
cent.
