BOND TREND
/. HELD GUIDE To
STOCKS
Spectator Sees Significance
to Entire Market If Senior
! Securities Continue Firm
BY THE SPECTATOR

NEW YORK, Oct. THE stock
market has come through its
first test with colors flying, so
to speak. True, the advance ran
into somewhat of a snag, but this
was hardly unexpected in view
of the extended rally which had
immediately preceded.
=, The decline amounted TO but l
point in the 80 composite stock
index of standard statistics,
Srasing but a small fraction Of
the 9-pOint gain Of the previous
day.
Bond Trend Significant
I. OF greater significance was
the continued uptrend in the
bond market, in which advances
were general. FirmneSS in bonds
has always been looked upon as
the prime requisite for sustained
betterment in stocks, and the
way in which these senior Securi-
ties conduct themselves within
the next few days will have an
important bearing on the near
term trend in the stock market.
There is one angle stressed in
conservative quarters which can
not be overlooked in shaping
ones investment policy, and that
is the matter of the restriction
on short sales.
:, The opinion is held that actual
values can only be tested in a
natural market, and until such
> test is witnessed there will not
be sufficient real accumulation
to lay the necessary foundation
for an extended advance.
Sterilization Sought
AS an offset to this, however,
analytical observers stress the
fact that the fundamental objec-
tive of the exchange authorities
in their edictS against short
selling was to have the market
enter a stabilized zone.

RADICALS
Political Fear Is Blamed for
Continued Depression and
Reaction, Says Economist
By LEWIS HANEY
Director New York University Bureau
of Business Research

Director New York University Bureau
Of Business Research
What has been forcing security
prices down? What has been
keeping hundreds of thousands of
people with considerable means
out of bonds? What has been
leading ill-advised persons to hoard
gold in safe-deposit boxes?
/ believe there is only one
answer. The underlying basis of
the lack of confidence is political.
Afraid Of Radicals
The trouble is that investors
and property owners are afraid of
radical attacks-attacks on secur-
ity markets, banking and on our
monetary system-even attacks on
property rights. They fear radical
taxation. They fear further infla.
ton.
The other day. the head of the
American Federation of Labor
said:
"SwOllen fortunes can and
must De reduced Dy reu1StrlDu'
tiOn among workers"
An enormous further initiation,
involving huge increases in our
public debt (bond issues to be
floated by forcing the Reserve
Banks to extend credit, and to be
spent for more postoffices, etc
this is being proposed.
Demands Moratorium
You may believe in some of
these radical things. If you do,
you must be prepared for the con-
sequences. Now is no time to
consider them.
So I call for a moratorium on
politics and all unsound radical
schemes.
