OBSERVERS SEE
BRIGHT FUTURE
FOR SECURITIES
Express Belief That Worst
Stage of Gold Scare
Is Past.
By United Press

By United Press
NEW YORK. Sept. 22.-Bankers
today we're generally pleased with
the performance of the stock mar
ket following suspension Of the gold
standard by Great Britain.
According to well-informed
sources, there was no organized
banking support of stocks, and ncne
appeared necessary.
The stock market, however, was
considered in some quarters to be-
too artificial to determine its exact
reaction to the British move. A,
ban on short selling among other
restrictions served to keep prices
from going down in accordance
with the law of supply and de-
mand.
Reports in Wall Street that big
bears had turned bulliSh were nos
countenanced in well-informed
quarters. 1t was reported that these
traders had been requested officially
to support the market by covering
shorts.
Banking Support Seen
Some banking support was dis
cernible in Steel common, but ia
was not the organized aid given the
market in 1929 when conditions
we're different from today.
1t was pointed out that should.
the market need support, there were
vast resources on which to call. New
York banks, according to an inters
national banker, are in excellent
condition to cope with any situation
that might develop.
AS a matter of fact, bankers cid
not appear worried over the present
situation abroad. They were of the
opinion Great Britain would work
out solution of her problems and
that the country again would go on
gold basis.
None would venture a prediction
as to whether the new gold Stand-
ard would find the pound sterling
at revaluated basis of, say 81. 10
was pointed out that nearly all
other countries marked down the
price of their currencies, while Ger
many repudiated hers and started
anew.
Brokers' Opinions Divided
Great Britain's credit has been
kept up through centuries and some
observers we're Of the opinion she
would not fall back in this Inc
stance in the way of revaluating the
pound sterling.
Brokers we're divided in theft
opinions concerning the movement
of the stock market in the imme-
date future. Some of them, recog-
nizing the artificiality of the mar
ket, held that prices might be kepS
up for few days. Others advised
sales on rallies.
1t is now impossible to sell a
stock short. If shorts continue to
cover their commitments, the te h.
nical position of the market will be
weakened and stocks will be subs
jected to pressure when the artif oial
barriers to selling are removed, ac-
cording to some authorities.
Some expressed the belief today
the market had seen it's worst and
now that the bad news of Great
Britain's move is out of the way, a
slow recovery will set in.

100000 D. c. AUTO
TAGS DISTRIBUTED
Superintendent of Licenses
Estimates 5000 Cars Still
Lack 1891 Issue.

Approximately 100000 pairs Of 1891
automobile tags had been distributed
to the public at the close of business
yesterday, according to Superintendent
Of Licenses Wade H. Coombs Mr..
Coombs estimated that the number of
vehicles in the District is about los, 900
so that about 5000 cars are still
equipped with 1880 tags, and all OF
these are subject to a penalty for hav-
ing dead tags. The time for the Sc
curing of the 1881 plates expired at
midnight last night.
Last year, during the initial period
for the sale of 1880 tags, 95,7OO pairs
were distributed. This indicates an in
crease Of approximately six thousand
motor vehicles in the District during
the course of the year. About 5000
pairs of tags were sold yesterday and
$3.50 pairs the day before.
Mr.. CoombS also made public a COM
pilation of figures showing the number
Of tags sold during 1890, classified
among the various types of tags sold
This showed the sale Of total OF
171,888 pairs of tags, as follows: Pas
senger cars, 146,946; light delivery
1887; heavy trucks, 7,087 dealers
1859: hackers, 3,345; livery, 1928
rental, 200; electric passenger cars, SO;
electric commercial vehicles, 358; mo-
tor cycles, 918. In no case do the
figures for sale of tags coincide with
the number of motor vehicles In that
class, since each vehicle must be reg
istered anew with each change in own
ership.

is EXPECTED TO Be
RENEWED H|SWEEK
Treasury-PoSt Office Bill to
Bring Question Before Con-
fereeS on Tuesday.
QUESTION RELATES
TO ALL DEPARTMENTS
Both Branches of Congress to Act
ON Decision Affecting Under
average Groups.

The controversy between the two
branches of Congress over whether the
appropriation bills for next year should
carry the first installment of funds
needed to promote Government en-
ployes in the underaverage salary
groups is expected to become live
issue again this week.
Although the question relates to all
of the departmental supply bills, 1t is
generally understood that the decision
one way or another will come on the
Treasury-Post Office measure. The
confereeS on this bill probably will meet
Tuesday, it was indicated yesterday by
Senator Phipps, Republican of Colo
RADIO, one Of the Senate conferees.
Amendment Knocked Out.
Before the Christmas holidays the
conferees made report, knocking out
the Wood amendment, which would
have prevented use of any funds next
year for increases within grades, but
also eliminated the specific sums the
Senate had approved for beginning a
program of systematic increases in
underaverage positions. The knocking
out of the Wood amendment would have
permitted some increases, by making
available unexpended balances of ap-
preparations, but not as many in
creaSeS as the Senabe ndO recon-
mended. The Senate, standing by its
original action, rejected this report and
sent the bill back for further confer
ences with the House.
The money allowed by the Senate for
salary increases was in accord with the
budget recommendation that 80 per
cent of the underaverage requirements
be met in the coming year, as the be-
ginning of q three-year program Of
promotions.
House Expression Favored.
At the time the Senate rejected the
original report Of the conference, it was
pointed out by Senator Jones of Wash
ington, chairman Of the Appropriations
Committee, that the membership of the
House should be given a chance to ex-
press itself on the recommendation for
80 per cent Of the underaverage pro-
motions.
Whatever decision the conferees reach
In the new conferences about to start
will be submitted to both branches Of
Congress for final action. Whatever Is
finally done regarding the salary in
creases on this bill is expected to be
followed on the other appropriation
bills.
