And so it was that Tarzan made his kill, snatchng
it almost from under the of disappointed,
infuriated Iona fat antelope that the latter had
marked as his own. Throwing his kill to his shoul-
der almost in the face of the charging Numa, the
ape-man swung lightly into the lower terraces Of
the trees With haunting laugh for the tnfniated
and baff1ed beast, the apeman vanished noiselessy
into the night and back at the campdres
of his welcoming warriors.

SUGAR UPTREND

The prospect of a sharp reduc'

throughout Europe during the
coming autumn and winter con-
stitutes most encouraging evi

sugar industry in it's attempt to
eliminate overproduction and ex.
cessive stocks. says the Standard

in a current survey, which con.
tinues in part as follows:
Fortified by increasing conf

Spectator Counts Renewed
Activity Of Pools As Good
Sign OF Advancing Prices
BY THE SPECTATOR

NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-If the
market continues to receive dis
appointing news In the future
with the same nonchalance with
which it greeted the Interstate
Commerce decision yesterday, then
the road to recovery will not be
unduly difficult to traverse over
the near term.
Even though handicapped by
o sharp setback in the rails, the
stock list as a whole showed de-
cided firmness. with many i'm
portant issues breaking through
to reach their best levels of the
recovery.
One point in particular stands
out, namely, the return of ag.
gressive group activity, principally
in t. lower-priced brackets. This
indicates that interests lin the
know" regard the present position
Of the market as favorable for
higher prices, with the likelihood
that there will be run Of bullish
news items in the future which
will enable them to hquidate at a
profit.
1t is hardly likely that the
list will enjoy any straight-line
advance from this point. There
will undoubtedly be periodic dips
and spells Of profit-taking. How
ever, until the market itself pro-
vides a contrary signal, the gen.
eral consensus is that reactions
should be regarded as buying op
portunitieS.

COTTON EASIER;
TRAD { DULL

NEW YORK, Oct. % G.N.s).
The cotton market was somewhat
easier in today'S trading, with
early steadiness giving way to
losses of from 4 to points later
in the session.
In the run of cotton news there
was little or nothing to form a
major market influence. Senti-
ment around the cotton ring was
reactionary, the feeling being that
a technical setback was due, fol-
lowing price recovery of more
than 1A cents a pound within
two weeks.
There was no doubt of the
widespread character of the hold.
ing movement. Reports on hand
indicated that 40 per cent of the
Florida crop is being held, while
it was said that Texas farmers
were holding great amounts in
the seed.
At midday December was off

off 6 at 7.16, and July off Z at

INITIATION AID.
DER|DED BY
HANEY
Spread Facts and Then Let
Supply and Demand Work
Out Solution, He Advises
By LEWIS HANEY
Director New York University Bureau
Of Business Research

Of Business Research
Among the headlines, we note
an assertion that initiation in
England is stimulating the cotton
manufacturers of Manchester.
The fact is that two or three
mills are reported to be starting
up. This is a drop in the bucket,
and may be purely seasonal. But
if we assume that it is important
what reason is there to think it
due to initiation?
Other Reasons
Probably the reason is to be
found in the Chinese-JapaneSe
situation, which would cause
China or India to buy from Eng
land, instead of Japan.
Or one might as well argue
that the proposed arrangement
among Southern banks to carry
100000 bales Of cotton for
higher prices is the cause. II
foreigners believe cotton prices
can be boosted in that way, they
might be driven to buy goods.
We may we'll fear the results
of the extension Of cotton hold
ing. In addition to the large
quantity to be financed by the
banks, the Farm Board is said to
have agreed to hold its 100000
bales, and the co-operatives their
two million odd bales.
Thus, despite the fact that we
have a supply in excess of two
years requirements, we are 10
finance the carrying of about
5000, 1000 bales.
Failure Certain
If no one knew the cotton is
there, it might work. But there
it is, and as there is plenty more,
buyers are certainly not going to
bid up very much.
Moreover, as cotton prices rise,
it is going to be hard to show the
farmer why he should cut his
crop. He will argue that if worst
comes to worst, the Government
will take his surplus!
What we need is to see that
the facts of demand and supply
and credit are widely known and
correctly interpreted; unfair and
dishonest practices are prevented.
Then let values find their levels,
not only for cotton but for oil.
money, credit and all commodities
and services.
That is the way to restore con-
fidence.

So-called "hoarding' of cur
rency has been greatly ex-
aggerated in some quarters, and
is far less widespread through
out the country than many imag-
inc, an analysis by Moody'S In
vestors Service declared today.
Hoarding by individuals, in par
ticular, is not nearly as general
as is popularity believed, but is
directly connected with some
weak situations in particular Sec
tions OF the country, the survey
asserts. Moody'S explains:
Cash in Vault
From figures on cash in
vault of reporting member
banks we estimate that in all
banks in the country the
amount Of currency held in
vaults, ready for meeting the
demands of depOsitOrs, must
have increased by close to
$500, 100000 during the past IL
months. This amount is in
cluded in statistics of money in
circulation and, of course,
sweIlS the total to that extent.
Thus the increase in cir
culati0n from a year ago,
amounting to $3.50, 100000,
must be reduced to $75O,OOO,-
900 after eliminating the esti-
mated gain m cash held in
the vaults of banks. Yet even
the latter amount by no means
represents a general scramble
for cash.
