European investors have been
buyers of American stocks during

stated, is a member of a London

Mr.. Thayer inquired, TN your

PRICE ASKED
Times staff Photo

The Interstate Commerce Com
mission yesterday ordered Frank
K. Taplin, president of the Pitts
hurgh and West Virginia railroad
to disclose the price paid for 222,,
$50 shares of stock in his line by
the Pennroad Corporation, a hold.
ing company of the Pennsylvania
system. The sale was made last
January.
The order was issued in pro-
ceedings before the commission on
the petition of the Pittsburgh and
West Virginia for authority to
acquire control of the Wheeling
and Lake Erie. The latter road
asked that the commission ascer-
tain the price figures in the
Pennroad deal.
The commission at the same
time oVerruled a motion of the
Pittsburgh and West Virginia to
dismiss the intervention petition
of the Wheeling and Lake Erie
and also rejected plea by Tap
lin to strike from the record
certain testimony Of the Van
Sweringen-controlled Nickle Plate
road which Taplin alleged was
irrelevant to the matter before
the commission.

Some encouragement as to the

American affairs are closely in
tertwined with those in foreign
countries. There was once con.

business of the United States was

long period of high money which
had sapped the gold supply Of

mediate worldwide reaction.
Foreigners were heavy specu-
lators in the stock market during
its period of rise. Investors in
foreign countries are estimated
to take something over $400,
100000 annually out of the
United States as a result Of their
holdings in this country, while
the return on foreign investments
held by Americans is about a
billion dollars a year.
Officials express the belief that
the present depression in United
States will not be protracted, al.
though they admitted the serious
ness of the blow suffered over the
last few months has brought
about a condition from which
recovery can at best be slow.
No reaction has been felt as
yet from the new 2K2 per cent

said the bank of England would

Reynolds Holds Trade Will
Have Usual Upturn; Com
moditieS Cloud Outlook

CHICAGO, June IS. - General
business betterment will be ex-
perienced in the fall, when the
trade will unquestionably enjoy
the usual seasonal upturn, accord
ing to statement made today by
Arthur Reynolds, chairman of
the board of the Continental Hi.
nois Bank and Trust Company.
Further than that, he declared,
it is practically impossible to pre-
dict the course of business volume
and profits in the second half
until several important factors in
the situation, such as crops and
international relationships become
more clearly defined.
Failed to Hold Gain
Discussing the business situa-
ton. Mr.. Reynolds said in part: /:
Business reached the low
point last December. There
was some recovery in the early
months Of this year, which,
however, did not carry through,
and generally business has not
been as good since March / as
many people believed It would
be. At that, the first half bust.
ness profits in this country will
about equal those in the first
half Of 1929.
General situation at pres
ent has no definite trend,
with the exception of COM
modify prices which have de-
clined, and are still declining.
This condition Is not confined
to our country, and there will
be no resumption Of business
in any comprehensive way
until commodity prices strike
bottom. When that will be,
will depend on worldwide con-
ditiOnS and upon our rate of
production.
Domestic crop outlook this
year from standpoint Of vol
ume is good. We cannot tell
what the dollar return will be
because of changed methods
of marketing, and because the
European crop outlook is not
definite"
Farm Money Tight
One factor which holds back
farm buying, he stated, is the
relative tightneSs of money out.
side Of the leading centers
Money may be easy for some
purposes in big cities, but when
the farmer goes to the country
bank asking for big loans he
does not find it so easy, he said
Good crops and bare shelves
are positive factors in the situa
tion that will exert their influ
ence as soon as the unfavorable
factors show they have really
turned for the better, he con.
cluded.

of mutual savings banks. The
rate also applies to deposits Of

The new reduction in acceptance
