Better Tone-Foreign

BY BERNARD S. O'HARA,
Associated Press Financial Writer.


NEW YORK, February 10.-Specu-
lative sections of the bond market
were depressed today by the stock
markets pessimistic Interpretation OF
the bill to regulate securities trading.
Passage of the bill in its present
form, it was admitted by some trad
ers, might have the effect of reducing
the so-called professional dealings in
low priced bonds. but the opinions
were not tinged with as much dis
appointment as was reflected in scme
of the stock trading circles.
Over most of the secondary list the
trend was down, although losses were
rot heavy, and values improved a
hour of trading.
United States Governments showed
o better tone than in the last few
days with several gains ranging from
2-32 to 4-32 of a point. A couple
of the Treasury issues and Liberty
3Ibs were down 1-32 to 2-32S.
Some loans of Allegheny Corpora
ton, Baltimore & Ohio, Nickle Plate,
PENNSYLVANIA, Southern Pacific, South
ern Railway, American & Foreign
Power, International Telephone and
Postal Telegraph slid off from frac-
tions to 2 points.
Northern Pacific 4s, Goodyear S.
Duquesne Light 4l2s and some other
miscellaneous issues resisted the
major trend and worked slightly
higher. High grade corporate issues
were generally firm.
Price movements were rather mar
row in the foreign list. French Gov
eminent 712s and Austrian Is rose
more than a point. In other i'm
portant groups changes were mixed.

CURB IMPROVES
IN SHORT SESSION
Short Covering Plays Part
as Market Stiffens After
Decline.
BY JOHN L. COOLEY,
Associated Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK, February 10-The
curb found somewhat steadier foot
ing today. Prices had an initial de-
cline as further selling orders we're
executed, but the tone improved later
and with some issues showing i'm
provement over Fridays close the
market became irregular.
Extreme losses of fractions to more
than a point were numerous at one
time as traders lightened speculative
commitments. Short covering ap-
peared to have been a factor in the
subsequent stiffening Of quotations.

by the President, one of whom would be
a commanding officer of the Army posts
or the admiral of the Navy base. The
governor would be a man representing
national, rather than island interests.
President Roosevelt showed sympathy
toward this idea by supporting in his
first Congress the Rankin bill author
izing him to appoint a governor from
the mainland instead of, as now pro-
vided, a man with two years previous
residence in the island. The measure,
however, was lobbied TO death in the
House of Representatives. President
Roosevelt got around the situation for
the present by appointing Joseph B.
Poindexter, a quiet, hardworking is
lander, who will take his orders from
the White House rather than the Sugar
Planters Association.
The middle-claSS American cOmmu-
nifty of the islands has little sympathy
in general with the Army and Navy
community, but warmly backs its wish
to end local government. Since
this community cannot rule, it would
rather be ruled from afar than by the
home barons as in the past, or by the
new Asiatic majority.
Toward this issue, which might easily
become emotional, the pineapple and
sugar shipping men maintain an out
ward neutrality. Publicly they usually
state their confidence in the intelligence
and good intention of the rising Asiatic
vote and say what a pity it would be
to reverse traditional American political
development. When one talks to them
privately he soon senses their fear of
this rising vote, but gathers that they
would about as soon get along by COM
promising with it as to put themselves
under an administration that might be
quite ruthless with their economic privi-
leges, such as their cheap leases of ter

what it would be today along the entire
Pacific Coast if no restrictions had been
placed upon the importation of Oriental
labor Hawaii, when the HaWaiians
died out, could have been made as much
a region of American acreage owners
as the valleys of Southern California.
But it went the other way, and we've
got the situation on our hands.
THE codification of business and wages
under the N r. A. has created
some unexpected situations throughout
the United States-and especially in
Hawaii Since Gen. Johnson's rulings
about the application of the N. R. A.
to the islands last October, the white
community, the japanese community
and the big barons have been futilely
bombarding the administration with
petitions and requests for clarification.
Now these conflicting interests will have
a chance to put it all up to the Big Chief
himself.
japanese business simply cannot pay
code wages and keep code hours and
exist off the purchases of laborers who
receive Oriental wages on the planta-
tions And white business cannot obey
the codes and compete with ASiatics
granted special leniency.
Behind this situation rises the funda-
mental question of whether this is the
great and perhaps the last opportunity
to make Hawaii American in the most
important sense, which is the economic
sense. All the phases cf the true Amer
icanization of the islands, and of
whether they are to play the historical
role of outpost of Western civilization,
or whether they are to swing into the
orbit of rising Pacific Asia, wait upon
this. The territory which is the most
remote part of his administrational re-
sponsibility will give President Roosevelt
plenty to think about on his sail back
