STOCKS LEVELS
STILL TREND
LOWER
Probable Breathing Spell Is
Likely, Says Spectator, But
Steady Gains Now Doubted
BY THE SPECTATOR

NEW YORK, April 17.-When
all is said and done concerning
the so-called attractive buying
levels provided by the recent bar
rage of unfavorable business It'd
ingS, it must not be forgotten
that the passing and reduction Of
dividends has lessened income to
investors, and consequently will
affect, more or less, the purchaS-
ing power of the country.
The stock markets further de
cline yesterday not only carried
the rails to new low ground for
the year. but brought the stand
ard statistics index of 90 stocks
within four points of the absolute
low figures of the year.
While it is hardly to be doubted
that these latter levels will soon
be tested, it is within the realms
of possibility that some inter
mediate breathing spell will be
provided since it is becoming
plainly apparent that the bears
are Over-reaching themselves.
Warned of Long Side
Wherever one turns for advice
these days, particularly in broker
age quarters, the advice is to keep
away from the long side Of
stocks, and the farther the bet
ter. Those who have been watch
ing the trend in recent months
will recall that bullishness was
most rampant when the top
prices of the year were registered
in late February, and every
temporary rally since then was
| taken to indicate the beginning
of another bull move.
1t should be kept in mind that
interests bent on accumulating
stocks for long pull appreciation
thrive on the bad news which is
bound to appear at the tailend
of business depression.
1t is reported that far-Seeing
quarters view with favor the De-
partment of LabOr's report show
ing 10 per cent wage cuts in 50
manufacturing industries during
March. 1t is pointed out that
wholesale commodity prices al
ways lead the pace in depres-
sion, and that the end of de-
preston is in sight when wages,
dividends and retail prices are
reduced.
Wholesale Prices Down
At present wholesale prices are
down to the levels of 1921. while
there is apparently little question
of the deflation taking place in
wages, dividends and retail prices.
/ Estimated earnings of Union
Carbide for the first quarter are
expected to approximate dividend
requirements Of IS cents per
share, as against net earnings Of
y cents per share in the like
period of a year ago. Covering
the dividend this year would give
this issue the benefit of compari-
son with General Motors, United
States Steel, General Electric and
other dominant industrials which
to date in 1881 have fallen short
of full dividend requirements.
The activities of Union Car
bide are widely diversified. and
the fact that in the long 19303l
bear movement the stock has
never sold to give as much as a
S per cent return, speaks highly
of its investment soundness.
Earnings of the majority of oil
companies will be at low level
in the first quarter of this year,
as indicated by the fact that
prices of crude oil and its prod
ucts were about 14.2 per cent
below average prices in the final
three months of 1880, and about
80 per cent under those prevail
ing in the first quarter of 1880.

Zoe Atkins 1.-THE Greeks Had a
Word for It," opens Sunday night
at English's as another offering of
the Arthur Casey Company at Eng
lish's.
The play deals with three adven-
turous ladies of leisure" called
Schatze, Jean and Polaire, all dis
tinct types of gold diggers. The
three meet an eminent pianist, who
is attracted to Jean by her beauty
and to Polaire because she is some
thing of musician.
Because Jean goes to sleep while
he is playing and Polaire appreci-
ates his music, he decides to make
Polaire famous as a pianist, but
Jean, with an eye to the main
chance, which is money or its
equivalent, steals him for herself
and leaves him when she has dug
bunch of jewels and furs out of
him.
Another member of the group pro-
poses> to Polaire and just as the
marriage is arranged, Jean steps in
and ruins everything and tops it off
by grabbing the rich father of Po-
laire's fiancee for herself.

the production are Yvonne Stebbins
