UTILITY ISSUES

Professional Artillery Now
Ready to Batter Prices to
New Level, Says Spectator
BY THE SPECTATOR

NEW YORK. May l9.-Under
ordinary circumstances, the posi-.
ton of the market at new low
levels, particularly after eight
consecutive sessions of decline,
would appear to point to an
automatic rally, already long
overdue.
Mondays turnover of 2,5OO.0O0
shares, the third largest of the
month, gave some hint of tenn
porary climax, but the perSiStency
of the selling. principally in the
rails and utilities, was not such
as to make the outlook for an
immediate reversal encouraging.
The net loss in the 80 composite
stocks index was approximately
four points.
Utilities Under Fire
A point mitigating against the
market at the moment is the
apparent switching of the heavy
professional guns toward the
utility group. 1t has been recog-
nized for some time that the
present level of deflation has
not adequately been reflected in
valuations of leading utility
issues.
If the stock list is to be in for
a thorough cleanup at this stage
of the proceedings, additional de-
lay in placing commitments is
advisable.
1t is we'll worth remembering,
however, that the present yield
on the 80 industrial common
stocks, in the Dow-Jones average
is now we'll over 6 per cent,
whereas the rate on 90-day time
money is ~ per cent. At the
bottom of the 1921 depression
the difference was only about /
per cent.

STORES HAILED

The decision of the United
States Supreme Court, holding
the Indiana chain store tax con-
Stitutional. was hailed today by
the insurgent bl0c of Congress
as a great progressive victory.
The group. long at war with
the chain stores, regarded the
decision as curb on further
expansion of chain store
operations.
Senator Brookhart said:
II haven't examined the de-
CiSiOn. but it appears to give
the States a power to discour.
age and check chain store
monopoly.
This was = tremendous vic
tory for the people, because
the chain stores have all the

economic life Of our nation
than to turn it over to the
chain stores"
