BOND PRICES GAIN
IN ACTIVE MARKET
Railroad and Foreign 0hliga-

1 Short Session.
BY ALEXANDER HENDERSON.
Associated Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK, June 20.-The bond
market staged general advance TO-
day and trading was more active than
usual in a short session :,
Strength was most apparent in rail-
road and foreign obligations. The
movement in the former was sinful
taneous with strength in carrier stocks
and many of the best gains Of the lat
ter were scored by German issues.
st. Paul SIS of 1000 and Southern Is
Of 1856 jumped more than point each
and were two OF the most active issues
OF the whole list. The breadth OF
the upturn may be realized from the
fact that such issues as Baltimore 81
Ohio 41aS Of 1860, Chicago & North
western 4a4s, New York, Chicago a.
st. Louis 4l2s of 1878 and Pennsylvania
general 419s were both active and
higher. Declines were unusually few
and small
The overnight news about the plans
Of the Federal Government to aid Ger
many proved a strong stimulant TO
German obligations. although the early
trading In them was dull. and i'm
parted better tone to the foreign
group generally. The German Slas
jumped more than points on a large
turnover and Berlin City Electric 61as
jumped more than points. French
Ti2S were more active than usual and
firm. Other European issues reached
higher levels. almost without exception
Sac Paulo rs of 1910 rose sharply on
few sales following the news of the
arrangements for the payment of the
July interest and amortization
charges. Other Brazilian bonds appre-
ciated also.
A group Of American bankers in

day. The entire operation in which

ment continued quiet and steady.
Public utility and industrial issues

This has all been taken into account
In the readjustment of prices of Sc
curitieS to incidents In the general de-
f1ation outside the area Of active con-
tact. After nearly two years of shrink
ing values, the power Of those who are
borrowers to hang on and the re-
luctance Of those who lend TO sustain
commitments with an unsatisfactory
future brings about collapse Of greater
or less degree.
It Is not improbable that we have
passed through the period of licuida-
ton of those securities and eommodi-
ties that are actively traded In and
have broad market There are many
signs leading to such o conclusion
Among them are the shrinking volume
OF offerings Of distressed securities and
commodities and the smaller percent

action. This is the more important as

gradually lead to greater poise on the
part of a public that has been COM
PEELED to take tremendous losses In Sc

sumo initiative in industry or In q
buying campaign until 1t is confident
that what it has in the form OF capt.

On the other hand, the strain where
there are unmarketable assets may be-
come more pronounced. The effect of
this will be on a limited number COM
pared with those In the security group.
European Bank Troubles.
1t Is this latter phase with which
European banks have recently been
dealing. Their troubles are In large
part due to frozen assets" which
eventually had to be "thawed out" and
exposure made of questionable items in
balance sheets. II might have been
possible to postpone the difficulties in
Austria had political and economic
conditions been more serene. The in
terrelations of the institutions in Gen.

that paralyzed Vienna later struck at
Berlin and Amsterdam. It was only as
the courage Of the German govern
ment has been displayed in this weeks
political and financial crisis that a
respite has been obtained, after the re-
discount rates of the central banks of
Germany, Austria and Hungary had
been advanced to Z and 7la per cent.
