BY J. G. DONLEY.

special DlSpatcn 10 Inc star.
NEW YORK, May 23.-Heeding
that good old maxim of the stock
market-"when in doubt, stay out
thousands of people are refraining
from speculation. And that 80o-odd
millions of profit for the active years,
1928-1933, recently spread on the record
by Mr.. Pecora, seems like a myth to
brokers who haven't been able to
make ends meet for several months.
Perhaps those days are gone forever.
Wall Street wishes it knew It is ex-
pensive to keep organizations intact,
with trading down to the lowest level
in 10 years. In fact, the volume on
the first day of this week was at an
annual rate OF approximately SO 00O.-
900 shares. To find a comparable
annual rate in the actual totals. it
is necessary to go back to 1918. when
the aggregate was S83,300,000 In
1914, with the Exchange closed for
tour months after the outbreak of the
World War, only 47,900,000 shares
were traded.
Generally accepted estimates indi-
cate that large brokerage organiza-
tions cannot make a profit with the
trading volume under 100000 shares
a day. The current dullness may
mark turning point, but the ex-
perience OF the past has been that,
when the market once gets so deeply
in the 6nldF1IO0S q PnnSidRTa hla time
Is required before the good trade winds
blow again. Whatever the influences
contributing to lack of speculative
interest, they will have to wear of
gradually, unless circumstances are
altered by some abrupt change in
Government policy.
Under these conditions large Or
ganizations are likely to be pared
down TO navigable size Perhaps there
viii be a multiplication Of smaller
brokerage organizations with mini
mum staffs. no leased wires and no
branch offices. With a selected
clientele of seasoned traders, such
houses can make profits even in dull
markets.
All in all, dull markets seem to be
on the slate for some time to come.
Droughts of all kinds usually linger.
But nature has a way of alternating
droughts and deluges. And, remem-
bering what happend after 1918, Wall
Street isn't yet prepared to give a
categorical answer to the question,
will the market drag forever?"

BUSINESS is SLOWER

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, May 23.-While retail
hardware trade, except in the drought
areas, has been progressing satisfac-
torily, it seems apparent that whole
salers and manufacturers are slowing
their pace.
Inventories are generally large
enough for the present, pending a
more emphatic change for the better
in the general situation, Hardware Age
will say tomorrow in its market sum-
mary.
It is estimated that a national gain
of II to 20 per cent is being reflected
by general retail sales, as compared
with the corresponding figures of 1888.
The increase in wholesale trade is
estimated as ranging from 5 to 10 per
cent.
