LONDON MARKETS
STEAD|ER AFTER
NERVOUS PERIOD
RumorS That u. S. May Cut
Margin Requirements
Stir Interest.
BY LEONARD ]. REID.
Ry Cahle m Tho C+or

LONDON, September 11.-A nervous
and troubled week in the financial dis
trict, complicated by many cross
current influences, ended in a manner
promising steadier conditions, but all
markets remain acutely sensitive.
A clear analysis of the weeks hap
penings is difficult, because of appar-
entity contradictory movements COIN
Gliding. For example, there were strong
European purchases of the dollar, but
heavy European sales of Wall Street
stocks in midweek. A further oues-
ton is whether London selling Of
Anglo-American favorites precipitatcd
the Wall Street setback or whether a
Wall Street war scare, plus internal
political apprehensions, was respon-
sible for the decline on the American
market, which in turn shook London.
Margin Change Talked.
More profitable than an inquest into
these impenetrable problems is an at
tempt to estimate the possibilities of
the near future. There is great inter-
est here in rumors in Wall Street that
margin requirements may be reduced.
If this were true, London would benefit
psychologically, but everything here
still depends upon international devel-
opments and how they are interpreted.
The London stock market is sound
technically and reveals a strong re-
sisting power by British government
issues to retain their pre-scare level.
Declines elsewhere were severe only
when caused by foreign liquidation, ex-
cept in special cases, such as steel and
nickels, where an Unexpectedly large
bull account had accumulated.
Domestic industrial news remains
excellent, and attempts to represent
the American trade trend as downward
arouses skepticism here. 1t is consid-
cred that both markets are ready for
recovery on any favorable development
in China or the Mediterranean.
other Doubts Felt.
However, international doubts are
abundant apart from the China and
Spanish wars. For example, the re-
ported resignation of Economics Minis
ter Schacht in Germany, if confirmed,
would provide a historical parallel to
Kaiser Wilhelm dropping his pilot,
| Bismarck.
Another disturbing development was
the new and sharp fall in the franc

TRUCKPRODUCT|ON
TO Be EXPANDED
Greater Use of Diesel Power
Plants Opens New
Possibilities.
BY the Associated Press.

DETROIT, September IA steadily
mounting demand for commercial
vehicles has led the makers of motor
cars to lay plans for further expansion
OF their truck production facilities.
Generally the commitments made
over the last couple of years for plant
expansion were pointed at creating
additional facilities for passenger car
production. The largest part of this
program, which ran into many millions
of dollars, has been completed or is
nearing finishing touches.
One of the heavier investors in addi-
tional production space is the Chrysler
Corp. Beyond what already has been
contracted for, company officials are
understood to be considering further
investments for its Dodge and
Plymouth commercial lines and also to
provide facilities for the new low
priced model, which appears to be an
assured undertaking, although the
corporation has made no announce
ment about it.
See Heavy Demand
Trade observers believe the volume
of demand for commercial vehicles is
as good barometer of the industry's
prospects as any other development
Truck and commercial car output this
year up to the end of July aggregated
1926 units, and there is every
indication the years total will be close
to 20 per cent of the industry's out
put, which all sources agree will reach
100000 vehicles.
Every producer with truck division
plans to increase activities in that part
of his plant next year. They are
fairly well agreed that proportionately
there is as heavy a backlog in the
truck and commercial vehicle market
as there has been in the new pas
senger car trade.
Turn to Diesel Power.
One of the possibilities in truck
production next year is an even greater
use of Diesel power plants in these
vehicles. Much experimental work has
been going on in the crude oil con-
suming power plant factories looking
to wider application of this more
economical engine in smaller COM
mercial vehicles. At present only the
heavier type of commercial cars use
Diesel engines. The maker of one
type of bus recently claimed an over
land mileage of nine miles to the
gallon on vehicle designed to ac-
commodate more than 80 passengers.

CHICAGO, September 11.-Heavy

Grated enough buying power to rally
slightly New lows for the year were

Various explanations were offered
for the break which occurred during

couraged by failure of overseas de-
mand for domestic wheat to develop
and by less apprehension over the
foreign political situation, were cred
tied with selling Liquidation of a
line of wheat during the early 2 cents
decline brought a flood of stop loss
orders which in turn induced general
commission house unloading when
prices skidded. 1t was the heaviest
volume of selling witnessed in weeks.
