MAKE STUDY OF
INVESTMENTS IN
FOREIGN MONEY
MUCH SPECULATION AS TO
WHAT EFFECT 1T WOULD
HAVE IF SUDDENLY WITH
DRAWN
(By PRESTON CROVER)
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 30
Eight or more years ago voices
from the government, from banks
and from financial exchanges
were triumphantly shouting that
the boom was not really a boom
but was the normal American
way. Then in 1929 came the
crash.
When President Roosevelt an
nounced recently at a press con-
ference that he had ordered a
study of the effect seven billion
dollars of foreign money might
have upon American exchange if
suddenly withdrawn, some sus-
pected he simply was taking a
course different from 1929 and
earlier. That he was caut.oning,
not whooping it up.
The OBVIOUS suggestion was that
if seven billion dollars of Ameri-
can securities owned by foreign
ers were dumped suddenly upon
the American market, it might
play havoc.
Reason A Question
What did the market do? 1t
ssgged the day after the an
.nouncement, and promptly recov-
cred after a weekend of thinking
it over. But on the day of the
market recovery, Secretary Nor
gentheu again pointed finger at
the same situation.
There was conflicting opinion
in Washington as to the serious
ness of the situation. Why the
sudden excitement? The same sit
uation with regard to foreign
owned securities existed several
months ago when the federal re-
serve hoard put slight brake on
market poss .bilities by increasing
bank reserve requirements. Is
there in sight now reason for
foreign investors suddenly pulling
their money out of the American
market?
Many do not think so. The Pres
ident did not say so. Those who
looked askance at European war
possibilities suggested an out
break of war might, for time,
even increase the flight of invest
ments to the United States. Ultim-
ateiy, it was generally agreed, a
European war would force liqui-
dalton of foreign accounts to raise
money to buy munitions here.
One suave official said it ap-
peared to him that besides the
/. scared money rushing over here
from troubled Europe, a wad of
"smart" money had come to prof
it on the U. S. industrial rise. For
every dollar of foreign money put
in here during 1884 and 1885, two
dollars now could be taken out be-
cause of the rise in American Sc
curity values.
Old Earnings A Factor
Not mentioned by the Presi-
dent, bat studied closely as it ran
be, for lack of exact information,
is the amount of idle corporal on
money which, under certain condi-
tons, might be fed into the secur-
ity markets. The new tax act is
forcing distribution of many 1886
earnings but does not touch 1884
, and 1885 earnings, which in some
corporations were considerable.
That is another wind which
might blow mot the market, with
i out any real check from present
federal controls.
Just how much of that money is
available is unknown.

Rev. John J.. Kripas of Hartford, formerly of this city, officiated at the wedding of Miss Helen Eliza beth Garbukis, daughter of MT. and Mrs. Peter J. Garbukis of Washing ton avenue and James Thomas Doolady, son of Mrs. Mary Doolady and the late Peter J. Doolady of Woodtick Road which took place this morning at 9 o'clock at St. Jo- seph's church.

1 to set the contract, but try as they might the opponents could not find 1t.
 West ruffed the diamond return, then led a low club to the dummy, South showing out. A low club was returned to the king and the last trump was led.
 This play squeezed North, who had been forced to give up 8 club on the third round of trumps. The queen of hearts still remained in dummy, so North was forced to hold the king. He gave up his club protection and West made the hand.
 If, instead of attempting to cash an early heart trick, South had continued diamonds, West would have gone down one trick. Of course, an opening club lead also would have given the defenders a chance to get two club ruffs and cash their two high diamonds; but this would have been an unusual opening lead in view of South's opening bid and double of the game contract.

Hazel Wood, a music teacher,
