carried in a financial paper that
the Ford Motor Car Co will be
permitted 10 add IL per cent 10
the cost Of the new trucks
which will be manufactured for
civilians under the 1914 pro-
gram. The fact that a spokes-
man for the Ford Co. denied
that the company had an
nounced the raise or had even
discussed price with the OPA
adds some mystery 10 the story.
The other manufacturers have
been IN a Quandry about prices.

Wise Purchases
Of Stocks Seen
Still Possible
THE DETROIT TIMES
BY LEWIS HANEY

Professor Of Economics y. " University
When the stock market aver
ages seem 10 stand still for
long while, almost any general
movement. no matter how small,
is watched with bated breath.
It's significance is apt 10 he eX-
aggerated. Probably this obser-
walton is significant AT the
present time. Since early in
January the market has hardly
moved. so the tiny setback last
week is magnified into
"brcak."
AS a matter or fact, the con-
dition OF uncertainty which
seems TO underlie the past lack
Of action, remains about I'M
changed. The invasion still lies
ahead The opposing political
forces Al home are lined up as
previously. And the war bond
drive not only brings out stories
of Jap atrocities nut also makes
il reasonably certain that A
damper will be kept on any wide
speculative moves.
To add 10 the present condi-
tion Of stalemate. there is the
showing made by the earnings
statements of the two big steel
makers. The u. s. Steel Corp.
statement for 1913 was dis
appointing. showing a consid-
cradle decline. The Bethlehem
report then came along and

POINT OF INTEREST

Another point OF interest 70
chart readers" is that after
breaking out of a declining tri-
angle on the up side. the aver
ages then were halted at the
upper resistance level Of mid
Octnber-It- may even be said
that they have broken out of
little rising triangle on the
down side. Again, an indecisive
and uncertain performance.
The bull and bear arguments
are also rather evenly divided.
on the one hand. il can truly
be said that the volume Of
trading has given no indication
of any downward momentum or
liquidation The prevalence of
bearish comment is usually an
Indication that the worst has
been seen. ...
But on the other hand, II is
true that the industrial average
after % failing to gain upward
momentum. was (2) halted at
an upper resistance level. and
then 80 had setback that car
ried il A little under the i'm
mediately preceding range of
trading. There is a rather gen.
eral feeling that the chances Of
any considerable rise in prices
in the near future are very
slight-a feeling which, of
course. is not conducive 10 buy
ing. Dow theory addictS are
not very likely TO do anything
but tighten ship.
YIELDS FAVOR STOCKSe
The bulls can say that yields
favor stocks over bonds. and
that bonds have risen and re-
gained their strength The
bears can counter by arguing
that many company earnings
are on the decline. owning to
war production cutbacks. higher
taxes, reduced volume of oper-
atoms, and the like.
Favorable war news Is coun-
teracted by evidences Of clash
ing interests among the Allies.
While l think it just as well
10 go slow on purchases for
while yet (perhaps till the bond
drive is over). il seems to me
that the chances favor no SER
ious reaction in the near future.
/ remain of the opinion that
wisely selected investments" in
sound stocks may Still be made.
