Federal Financing
May Help PrOlOng
Waiting Attitude
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, September L.
The impending United States
Treasury financing, involving ST.
TOO, 200, 900, along with the ab-
sence of speculative incentive at
this time, threatens to prolong
the waiting attitude Of the stock
market after Labor day, how
ever large the trek of vacation
lists back to the financial center
may be.
Most Wall Street prophets have
assumed that nothing smacking
of imitation is likely to come out
of Washington until that flnanc-
ing is out of the way.
But since the imitation idea IS
hard to down in speculative
quarters, even with gold moving
out and the administration ex-
hibiting a desire to reaSSure cap
ital and business lately, there is a
disposition to wait until the Treas
ury has completed its financing
for further light on American
monetary policy.
