SELLING ORDERS
LOWER PRICES
ON MARKET
BY W. s. COUSINS

NEW YORK, Dec. is U.NS0.
The accumulation Of weekend
selling orders carried prices Of
most Of the speculative favorites
to new low levels for the year
today, but rallies were in order
before the end Of the first hour.
The rails were again the OBJ
3ect Of heavy bombardment, with
losses Of ia to 3 points in New
York Central, Canadian Pacific,
Union Pacific and others. UtiN.
ties and motors were firm.
Another severe Shake-doWn in
cotton resulted in a loss of SIPS
q bale and decline in prices to
91a cents a pound for the near
options. AS on Saturday, the bulk
Of the selling came from the out
side markets, including Liverpool.
Grain was unsettled by the fresh
reaction In the stock market, and
July wheat sold in Chicago at
09%. q new low for the year.
United States Steel dropped be-
low 136 on a few sales, rallying
sharply to 1874. American Can
at 108h showed a gain Of 1A
over Saturday. Transamerica
showed the. benefits of the for.
nation Of a $4,000, 900 pool, and
rallied nearly a point to 11A.
Consolidated Gas, Public Service,
North American and other high
grade utilities refused to give
ground.
Manhattan elevated modified

Better Demand for Steel
May Be Tuning Point

der way, and a good volume Of
tin plate buying for the first half
Of 1891. We find q fair volume
Of structural steel contracts
awarded and some renewed activ-
ity in demand for pipe for pipe
lines. Iron and steel prices are
holding up pretty well.
Business Coming Back
am going to say in the next
issue Of Iron Age something like
this:
wall Street may have to make
further atonement for the sins
Of 1929. Those caught in the
water Of over-capitalization may
go down. But the steel industry
goes on. In our attitude toward
the nations basic industries we
should guard against becoming in
fected with the financial pessi-
miSm Of the day"
Such q large increase as oc-
CURED In the untitled orders Of
the steel corporation has some
significance. It may have been
partly due to driving in business
by announcing price advances.
There may even have been q little
manipulation Of the figures. But
the gain was much larger chan
usual for the season and is dis
tinctly encouraging.
Automobile production in NO
vember fell off considerably less
than usual for the season. Even
building permits, when properly
interpreted. indicated Q little
gain.

nv, LEWIS HANEY


Director, NetD York University
BSETe0W of Business Research
and Former Economist of
Federal Trade Commission
Tt is q good time to remember
the explanation Of his success
given by one of our very wealthy
men-G George F. Baker. He said:
~ never sell stocks" OF course,
that means that he buys good
investment issues at fair prices.
But it also means that he does
not become panicky and unload
at the bottom Of recession. This
thought is suggestive.
My idea now is that the time
to get peSsimiStic was in August,
1929, and in April, 1880. Those
months now lie pretty far behind.
At present it is reasonable to hope
that the worst is over.
We should now remember that
thigh finance" and the real basic
business Of the nation are two
different things. The production
and marketing Of essential COM
moditieS do not depend to any
great extent upon our gambling
"a stocks.
Retail Buying Helps
Back Of all the financial uncer-
tainty, lies the fact that there has
been q surprisingly large volume
Of retail buying. It is reassuring,
too, to turn to real production as
represented by the nations basic
steel industry. Here we find con-

EXPORT TRADE
REPORTED IN
FAIR SHAPE
America Holding Own In
Foreign Business; Europe
Leads World; 8 Pct. Drop

NEW YORK, Dec. 15.-Ameri-
cas- export trade is in pretty
good shape, everything consid-
cred.
While there has been q fall
ing off in international trade
tho situation. as respects the
United States, is anything but
discouraging and an Improvement
in the near future is presaged.
These conclusions were con-
tanned in the annual analysis OF
international trade issued today
by the National Foreign Trade
Council which accounted for the
downturn in exports all over the
world by reviewing the facts Of
increased production during the
past five years.
High Points Of Report
High spots Of the report follow:
1-World exports declined 3
per cent in 1890.
2.-World exports Is about 10
per cent greater in volume Cnan
it was in 1925.
3. Americas manufacturing In
dustry is holding its own in ex,
ports, while Europe Is the Steadi-
est field Of international com
merce.
"The most constructive fac
tor Of the present year Is that
manufacturing industry, par
ticuIarIy in Europe and the
United States, though reflecting
the general reduction in prices,
has not reduced the volume OF
its exports entering inteFna-
tiOnal trade.
Auto Exports Drop Half
'"The single exception Il the
autOmOtive industry, whose ex.
ports, almost 80 per cent Of
which came from the United
States, have dropped off during
the present year almost by half
from its 1929 record"
+ The report pointed out that the
steady growth Of international
commerce had been interrupted
this year for the first time since
1921 by q net decrease Of about 8
per cent in the volume Of the
worlds export trade.
World export trade for 1880,
according to figures up to DecemS
Der J. for nations carrying on about
half Of the worlds commerce In
dicate that the export trade Of the
101 nations Of the world viii be
about 221a billion dollars for 1880.
Europe More Fortunate
A notable fact Of the years
business, the report said, Is that
European export trade has been
less affected by the present de-
preston than that Of any other
section Of the world. The volume
Of Europe's export business has
remained very close to what it
was in 1929.
The outstanding element in
this progress has been the re.
habilitation Of Germany, accord
ing to the analysis.
