BONDS ARE Strong
IN QUIET MARKET.
Both Domestic and Foreign
Lists Show Upward
Trend.
BY r. II. RICHARDSON.
;ial Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, August 3.-Bonds were
strong today In quiet trading. The adj
vance included the entire domestic list
and all foreign bonds with the exception
of the Brazilian group.
Brazilian 6K5S and IS worked of q
point or more because OF the default
In Rio de Janeiro 61as and IS. While
this proved to be only technical, the
bonds have discounted the possibility
that Brazil may have to default more
of her external obligations before Sir
Otto Niemeyer's financial plan can be
put into effect. There are $4,000 900
of the 6hs outstanding and $4,000 900
Of the 8s.
Argentine dollar bonds, which were
weak Saturday because Of doubts ex-
pressed as to service on them, firmed
up today with official announcement
that debt service has been received by
the bankers. Argentine IS of all ma
TURTLES recovered fractionally. German
points, with most of the activity in the
SIS and rs. Utilities. industrials and
municipals, however, also had a better
tone, particularly Rhine Westphalia
Electric IS, Berlin IS and Siemens q
Halske 6Ias. The plan to grant Ger
many a long-term credit for the pur-
chase Of American wheat at 70 cents q
bushel was regarded with favor today,
both by Berlin and Wall Street. The
rest Of the foreign list was largely un-
changed.
Domestic bonds were dull, but in gen.
eral slightly higher. The trend was up
ward in a long list of second and third
grade railroad bonds, chiefly because
these descriptions were much oyersold
last week. Missouri Pacific SIS, Erie SIS,
st. Paul SIS, Denver & Rio Grande West
ern SIS, Frisco AIS. Frisco Prior Lien A
4s and Allegheny issues all worked
higher.
Industrials were helped by earnings
reports. Goodyear SIS led a recovery
Of rubber company bonds. An estimate
today indicated that even If Goodyear
has 20 per cent decline in total sales
this year, the company should show
81, 400, 900 greater income than in 1880
because Of the probable absence Of any
necessity for inventory write-offs.
Since most Of the rubber companies
have been quick to write OF inventory
losses, the whole industry is considered
in good position to take advantage of
any business upturn.
The international group Of bonds
moved higher. International Telephone
SIS were strong. Small gains occurred
in American g. Foreign Power SIS, In
ternational Match SIS, International
Hydro Electric SIS. and Utilities Power
& Light SIS and 514's.
The municipal market was firm, with
only small amount Of new offerings
and with bidding by both individuals
and institutions as active as ever. One
list today showed current offerings at
prices to yield ais to $50 per cent.

COMMODITY PRICES
BELIEVED BETTER
Survey Claims Lows Have
Been Passed for Year
or Even Longer.
Dispatch to TIE star.

Special DlSpatch TO the Star.
NEW YORK, August 3.-Commodity
prices in practically all cases have
passed their lows for the next year or
more, in the opinion of the Standard
Statistics Co., as set forth In O bulletin
on the outlook and a suggested pur-
chasing policy for important comnodi-
ties. The bulletin continues in part:
Commodity prices in general, during
the past month, have registered the
first definite reversal in trend since the
Inauguration Of the abrupt decline in
the early Summer Of 1929. The drought
scare of a year ago, 1t is true, was of
advances in farm and food products,
but did not prevent continued liquida-
ton in other divisions of The commodity
list. At the trough of the decline, in
June, last, average values were nearly
80 per cent below the 1929 high and
So per cent under the 1920 postwar
peak.
The advance in prices which was
initiated with the Presidents mora
torium plan was of relatively short
duration and meager proportions in
contrast with the preceding decline.
Moreover, the subsequent partial relapse
Of the previously hopeful sentiment has
caused them to relinquish part of their
gains. At the same time, movements
Of the past month have served to en-
phasize that the thorough defiation Of
values has made them latently sensitive
to any unexpected development Of q
definitely constructive nature.
Subject to specific factors govern
ing the position of A major commodi-
ties analysed, we have, in a broad way,
based our purchase recommendations on
the belief that the general trend of
commodity prices will be gradually and
irregularly upward during the course
OF the next year.
I'VE are led to this conclusion by
indications that ~ liquidation Is pro-
ceeding faster than costs are being re-
duced, and the average narrow profit
margin is continually driving marginal
producers temporarily or permanently
out of business; CD normal growth plus
deferred demand Is expanding the
potential market for materials and The
incentive for satisfying these needs has
not yet fully materiallzed, and I'D sta
tistical measures of trade showing ia
vorable comparisons with year
previous will become increasingly nu-
merous during the next few months,
improving the general business morale
and encouraging larger commitments"

CORPORATION
REPORTS
TRENDS AND PROSPECTS OF
LEADING ORGANIZATIONS.

NEW YORK, August 3.-The follow
ing is a summary OF important cor
poration news prepared by the Stand
ard Statistics Co., Inc, New York, for
the Associated Press.
Weekly News Review.
Security markets last week were ex-
tremely sensitive to domestic develop
ments while for the most part events
abroad were ignored.
The reduction of the quarterly COM
mon dividend of the United States
Steel Corporation from SITS to 81 and
the publication of one of the most dis
appointing income reports since the
war caused stock prices to turn sharp
downward Other unsettling influences
were the omission of both the common
and preferred dividends by Nickel
Plate and the further reduction of the
common dividend of Bethlehem Steel.
The actual movement of the stock
market for the week ended July 81, as
index for 80 stocks, showed q decrease
Of "a points. From lila on July a
the index declined to 100 on July II,
industrials, rails and utilities all con-
tributing to the downward movement t.
Along with the further recessions in
the stock market the bond market, in
which there was a moderate volume,
was generally lower, as contrasted with
the recent indefinite movement. How
ever, the high-grade investment issues
continued to attract 2 substantial de-
mand and evidence of strength was not
entirely lacking.
Commodity Prices.
Further recessions = in commodity
prices occurred during the past week.
Of the 40 major items % declined,
advanced and 10 were unchanged. The
weakness was well distributed over the
entire list, with the more pronounced
declines having been registered in
grains, coffee and cotton, the last
named commodity reaching the pre-
vious lows for the year. Among the
individual items which have most sue
cessfully resisted lower prices are SUI
gar, hides, butter, cheese and eggs.
The strength in dairy products has
been attributable to seasonal influences
and the relatively low supplies IN
storage.
