MANY BARGAINS,
BUT HARD To

Spectator Quotes Analysis
BY Leading Wire House Of
General Market Situation
By THE SPECTATOR

NEW YORK, Sept. 10.-The
general stock market situation is
viewed as follows by one of the
leading wire houses in the street:
Many stocks are on the bargain
counter and will be under steady
accumulation on a scale down,
yielding grudgingly even in the
face Of bearish news of general
nature.
A large number Of stocks stiN
appear Overvalued on q basis Of
current, and even prospective
trade conditions. These will meet
steady liquidation and prOfes.
siOnaI short selling, making for
considerable irreguIarity.
Big Break Held Unlikely
No wide open break in prices
is likely in view of the restric.
tions against organized bear raid
ing. Wall Street commission
houses have completed a drastic
liquidation Of speculative ac-.
counts and brokerage loans are
likely to show moderate weekly
increases for some time to come,
There will be more unfavor.
able business news than favorable
for the balance of the year, and
this condition will initiate against
explorations of even the out.
standing bargains.
A continuation of low volume
is in prospect.
There is much to support the
contention that the bear market
is in its last stage, but this does
no1 imply a fast about-face. The
opportunities on the constructive
side of the stock market from
this level will show a rising trend
whereas the opportunities on the
bear side will show a narrowing
tendency.
Speculative Prospects
A. diversified list of speculative
common stocks, which in the
opinion Of one prominent com.
mission firm should do better
than the average when a definite
market turn for the better de-
velops, includes the following:
General Foods, Reynolds To-
bacco B, Woolworth, North Ameri-
can, Standard Oil of New Jersey,
General Motors, American Can,
Chrysler, Chesapeake & Ohio,

10-PO|NT BREAK
RECORDED FOR
ROCK ISLAND
American Telephone, General
Electric, United Corp. and
Westinghouse Join in Slips
BY w. S. COUSINS

NEW YORK, Sept. 10 QN.sJ.
A 10-point break in the common
stock Of the Rock Island Railway,
following the announcement of
the omission Of the dividend, un-
settled the rail stocks today.
Losses of 1 to 3 points were
recorded in Baltimore and Ohio,
New Haven and other well-known
rail shares, and the industrialS
were abruptly halted in the
recovery which appeared to be
under way in that section of the
market.
Tonnage Report Fair
The "steel tonnage" report,
which showed a drop Of 235,0O0
tons in the August incoming
orders of the United States Steel
Corporation, was in line with
forecasts and compares favorably
with that of the last two years.
A 400,000-ton August decline is
considered seasonal.
westinghouse and General
Electric were under the hammer
today. In the Wall Street view
these stocks have been out of
line, from an investment stand
point with other stocks of equally
high rating. A further drop in
westinghouse dividend to 50 or
SO a share annually is currently
predicted and the 3-point decline
in the stock to the years low at
53A was an effort to discount"
that reduction. Z.
General Electric fell off about
2 points to fractionally above the
years lowest price. General Mo-
tors was under pressure for the
eighth successive session, and Du
Pont, dropped 2 points to 751a.
Commodities Steady
The commodity market held
fairly steady in the absence of
important developments of any
kind. Textile leaders are encour-
aged over the steady expansion
in the demand for their goods
and current sales are above mill
production. Money was in good
supply and bond prices were in
clined to sag.
The stock market slowed down
IN the early afternoon without
recovering any considerable part
Of its early losses.
At that period Sears Rosebuck
was down about 2 points at 81,
and U. s. Steel fractionally lower,
