Wheat Sells OFF

Commodities were reactionary
Wheat sold off after a barely steady
opening, the decline being ascribed
to the announcement American and
British governments had advanced
proposals for peace in the far east.
This reason was based on belief the
recent rise in wheat had been
caused by expectation of hostilities
that would be long drawn out and
might eventually result in war. Cot
ton also reacted and it was reported
that Japanese interests were on the
selling side.
Pressure continued on Japanese
bonds, which crumpled l to points
in active selling. Silk futures in
New York broke sharply following
crash in Yokohama that neces-
STATED suspension of trading there.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2.-Stocks
failed to maintain gains in the first
two hours Of trading today, and
around noon the list slipped back
fractions to points below the pre-
vious closing levels in dull turnover
There was no pressure against any
particular stock or group. The mar
ket appeared to lack demand and
prices gradually declined. Around
noon United States Steel was at
40A, off p from the previous close
and of rs from the high.

This financial phenomenon is the South American republic of veneyucln. That country is In the envlnblo DO. sition of not only betnR free or foreign d0bt but of actually hay. Ing e surplus in tho treasury. Tile total national debt is around S6, 00V, 900. which on q per capita basis would represent about the cost of Q days iiestn for the aver. age Venezuelan.
 The saiutary state of venezue. Ian finances is evidence of the of. ficiency and restraint of the Go. mes regime, which has governed the nation for so long. Though tie 0omeE administration may not nl. ways have been so tender with the peopleb liberties as have most so- called democracies, neither has It been 70 prodlgal with their money, That its economies hAvo not gone to the cxtremo of nigEardllness Is proved by thes fact that the largs est item in the national budget 's for public works.

Big Money Seeks Bonds

Action of the Senate Finsnee Commit tee in raising surtaxes on income to max. mum of 45 per cent on amounts over Sl.000.000." writes financial expert. has given further impetus to the demand for high grade municipal bonds" It is the same with federal state and other public bonds exempt from income taxation. Big money is sensitive and Intelligent seeking quickly the surest way to avoid any new burden. So big money has started doing now what it did during the period of heavy war taxes
 This unintentional driving of money in. to tax.free and economically unproduetive securities has far.reaehing effects. One of them is the increase of public bond issues. As the demand for such bonds increases. governmental units all the way down from the federal government to the incorporated village or school district finding 1t easier to sell bonds. proceed to issue them to meet real or imagined needs. Thus public debts tend to increase. And thus taxes tend to increase again, even while everybody is de. manding lower taxes.
