Stock Leaders Drift
In Narrow Range
AT Week Close
Traders Afraid of War
Developments, Remain
On SideIines
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-In another
of the sloWeSt markets In % years,
leading stocks today loitered IN an
exceptionally narrow range.
The main excuse put forward by
brokers for the inept performance
was that traders generally feared
the war news might become worse
over the week end and the majority,
even those with strong bulhsh IN
clinations, seemingly decided that
getting out on a speculative limb
at this time was bit too hazardous.
A summer vacation atmosphere
pervaded boardrooms.
Apathy ruled at the start and
dealings slackened even further as
the session proceeded. The ticker
tape frequently came to a full stop
for lengthy intervals. For the two
hours the turnover was well under
100000 shares
While scattered favorites man
aged to close with most plus signs,
inconsequential declines were plen-
tiful. Numerous pivotals never sold
and wide assortment finished
where they left off Friday.
Bulletins telling of intensified Nazi
air raids over England combined
with a heavy big-gun duel over the
Channel revived the thought in
Wall Street that the long-threat-
ened German push might be getting
under way. Although hopes re-
manned high for the ultimate sue
cess of John Bull, question marks
still were sufficiently strong to in
Spire considerable hesitancy among
potential stock buyers. Lack of any
selling inSistence, at the same time,
was attributed to growing brightness
of the home business picture.
The fact the national tax program
apparently had run up against a
snag in Congress was seen as flaw
in the generally optimistic market
picture.
Shares ahead at one time or an
other included Bethlehem Steel,
United States Rubber. United Air
craft, United States Steel, Kenne-
colt. Westinghouse, international
Paper preferred and Pennsylvania.
Behind now and then were Cen
eral Motors, Sears-Roebuck, Mont
gomery Ward, Glenn Martin, Inter-
national Nickel, American Smelling
New York Central. Great Northern
and Johns -Manville.
Bonds and commodities were un-
able to climb out of the rut.
In a virtually motionless curb
support was accorded Pittsburgh
Plate Glass. United Light e. Power
"A" and Insurance Co. of North
America. Lagging were Electric
Bond & Share, Republic Aviation
and United Wall Paper.

Figures
What TheyMeon
By JOHN l.. BECKLEY,

Associated Press Stdt3Sl4CldN.
NEW YORK. Aug pa large in
crease in the use of cash loans by
consumers is a conspicuous develop
ment in the consumer credit field
since 1929, the National Bureau of
Economic Research said today.
Equally noteworthy. according 10
the bureau, are the rapid strides
made by commercial banks and
credit unions toward Importance as
suppliers of such loans.
A new report by the bureau-the
volume Of consumer installment
credit, 29-38-shoWS that cash
personal loans outstanding averaged
1.12490O 900 in 1888 compared with
s531 100000 in 1929, a gain of more
than 100 per cent. Included in this
total were outstandings Of personal
loan departments of commercial
banks. credit unions, industrial
banking companies, personal A.
nance companies. cash loans of un-
regulated lenders and F. H. A. in
sured loans under $4,000.
The low point for cash loans out
standing in the 10-year period stud
led was S45S.7OO 900 in 1888. They
rose steadily thereafter to peak
in 1888 despite the general business
recession in that year.
Personal loans Of all types of lend
ing institutions increased from 1888
through 1888, but those Of industrial
banks reached a peak only about
equal to the 1929 level Personal
loan business transacted by other
groups surpassed 1929 by wide mar
gins.
Biggest gains were made by COM
mercial banks and credit unions.
From 1884 through 1888 personal
loans outstanding through credit
unions multiplied more than four
times While those of commercial
banks multiplied more than eight
times. The proportion of total cash
loans outstanding attributable to
these two types of institutions in
creased from II per cent of the total
in 1929 to almost 80 per cent in 1888.
Banks Enter Field.
Contributing to this growth, the
national bureau said, was a broad
expansion in the number of personal
loan departments maintained by
commercial banks. OF 1,095 banks
reporting such departments in 1888,
four out of five had been established
since 1882.
Outstandings of personal finance
companies showed marked growth.
but their proportion of the total
business declined II per cent be-
tween 1929 and 1898.
