Brokers' Comment

NEW YORK, November 4.-Broker-
age house advices to clients today re-
f1ected uncertainty over the stock mar
ket's immediate course. Some looked for
a rally after election. Comments fol-
low:
Otis & Co.-The decline in the mar
ket has smashed practically all prece-
dents involving the relationships which
have existed in the past in the move
mentS of money rates, business and
stock prices. Despite the fact that we
believe past precedentS are useful, we
continue of the opinion that the only
absolutely dependable indicator of the
markets prospects at any particular
time is its own action. In the present
situation it is still impossible to say
with assurance that all general liquida-
ton has EN- completed.
Jackson Bros, BoeseI & Co-There is
little question that current pessimism
will be carried to extremes, but as long
as buying is insufficient to absorb Hqui-
dalton and professional selling, except
at recessions, 1t must be concluded that
the bear-term market outlook is one of
uncertainty. While we continue to feel
that many stocks are attractive on the
basis of ultimate recovery, scale-buying,
in our opinion, will continue to be the
WESSk pOllCy uLOeT eAlStLlB COLlUlIlOllS.
Shields 81 Co.-Failure Of the Steel
Corporation to authorize an extra divi-
dend, talk by Coolidge and Mellon, dis
appointing earnings reports and quiet
but steady liquidation were the infiu-
ences during the past week to the in
creasing bearishness of the majority Of
stock market followers. With the i'm
portant short-Sellers driven out, the
foundation of many stocks has been
weakened to a degree that causes the
rather drastic breaks in individual spe-
cialties that are an added factor to gen.
eral unsettlement.
Redmond g. Co-while there is as
yet no indication that the general
downward trend has been definitely
halted, some issues show signs Of an
overextended short interest.
Smith, Graham 81 Rockwell.-Little
better than trading market is in sight.
Covering by shorts from time to time
will bring quick rallies, but these are
not likely to go far.
Russell, Miller Sc Cot is fairly OBJ
vious when all is said and done that no
broad, overriding recovery in business
can be expected for some months to
come. The underlying forces which will
bring back good times are powerfully at
work. They will become effective In
time in cumulative way If allowed
fair play and not interrupted by ILL
considered manmade attempts to hurry
them along.

NEW YORK, November 3.-The
stream of new bond offerings dried up
during the past week, partly owing to
the imminence of election day and part
ly because of the nervous condition of
the markets, both Investment and spec
ulative.
The total of bonds issued last week
was $17,64S, 900, against $98,038,588 the
week before and $2,292 500 in the same
1929 week. But what was true of last
week is not likely to be SO of next week
and the week after. for the voters of the
United States are asked to pass on
$475, 100000 of new municipal financing
today. That much of this will
be rejected is certain, but enough IS
sues will be approved by the people to
cause quite drain on the investment
market in the near future. Right now,
the investment market is in no condi-
ton to be put to the strain of another
over-supply of fresh flotations.
Company Reports.
The stock liquidation of the previous
week was continued to some degree, in
the past week and on Friday stocks
were acutely weak. Hence sporadic
bursts of forced selling have hit bonds.
In addition, rail and industrial earnings
reports have been no better than the
market had anticipated. In some cases
they have not lived up TO expectations.
This was a fresh factor of discourage
ment.
That this was not emphatically shown
in the bond averages WIS due to the
persistency with which prime issues
have maintained their p.'ices under a
steady investment der- al. Standard
Statistics index of 30 + IDS ended the
week at 98.5, against 9G.S last week.
Through all this there has been a
very thin supply of good municipals, so
that this section of the market has been
little affected. Chicago, for instance,
was able to sell $12,000,000 of revolving
fund bonds, due 1892 to 1912, at slightly
above per cent yield basis. These
were reoffered to the public at prices
to yield 3.75 to 400 per cent.
Gist of Proposal.
These bonds mark. the beginning of
the end of Chicago's' difficulties in
financing when taxes are held back by
reaSsesSments. The proposal is to set
the city up in the banking business to
the extent that 1t can do all its own
short-term financing. For 1890 and the
next IL years a special tax of 10 cents
has been levied for the purpose of set
ting up a revolving cash fund. The
present issue is merely for the purpose
of starting the fund off. The special tax
will be levied for IL years, at which
time, it is estimated a fund of 50,000,-
600 or 100000, 900 will have resulted.
From this, each year, the city must bor-
row till the fund is depleted before
issuing any tax anticipation warrants,
