Brokers' Comment

NEW YORK, July 15.-Brokerage
houses had little comment TO make on
the current stock market today. Some
of the various opinions on general con-
ditions follow:
+ HornbloWef e. WeekS-It Is obvious
that the market is going to continue to
drift hesitantly until such time as the
foreign situation has cleared. There is
nothing in the domestic news in the
middle Of the Summer lull TO afford
market stimulation, and, therefore, We
feel that trading in the list generally
will receive its direction from interna-
tional developments.
Shields 4 Golf 1t were not that
foreign news Is almost the only infil-
ence at the moment, the cartloading
report this morning would prove very
cheering statement. While 1t shows a
decline Of some $4,000 cars for the
week ended July 4, the drop Is so ma
terially under that Of the same week In
previous years as to strengthen belief
that business definitely is on the mend

market 1t u unlikely that rallies VIII
make much headway, or 1T least until
more definite developments occur ir
Europe.
Redmond r Co.-Bearish professionals
apparently are making no attempt TO
capitalize the unfavorable developments
in Germany. with . result that selling
continues orderly.
jackson Bros, Doesel 4 Cove ad-
here to the view that any favorable
change in the aspect of the German
news would supply the spark for tenn
porary rally. In this event We would
continue q policy of tightening specula-
tive trading commitments on bulges. as
both domestic and foreign conditions
are such as to indicate no sustained ad-
vance In the near future.
Winthrop, Mitchell l. Cove would
withhold any new commitments until
q clearer line can be drawn on probable
outcome Of present dificulties, which
are storm-tossed about Germany rs the

DEPRESSION LOW POINTS
REACHED IN SUMMER
Special Dispatch to The star.

NEW YORK, July 1S.-Contrary to
general expectations business activity
did not decline in June, but held Its
own. The American Institute OF FL
nance Business Index for June $50,
unchanged from May. =.
Trade. activity In June increased. :, IN
greater than seasonal proportions, on
setting o further decline in production.
Thus there was n;June . further draw
ing down Of stocks Of goods on. hand,
Reference to the index shows that
during the past 30 years low levels OF
various periods Of business depression
and recession came in the Summer
months. The low Of the 1894 depres-
sion was In August of the 1907-1908
depression in June, Of the 1911 recess
sion in July, of the 1920-l921 depres-
sion In June Of the 1924 recession In
July. /. -.-e.-. =.
Remembering that business has been
declining for two years. the fact that
business is at its approximate low for
the depression, in the Summer of 1891,
is much more bullish than bearish.

Look at the number Of times
