Yet, with all these obstacles,
short selling theoretically
could be profitable if the seller
has schooled himself to take a
proper point of view and If
beariSh information were as
easy to get as bullish.
Conditions for Profit
What are some of the condi-
tionS making it profitable I?
Broadly speaking, the general
background of the market
should be unfavorable. There
should be a maximum of stocks
held in the hope of a gain even
though the price tide has
started to run out.
On an individual stock basis,
the capitalization should he as
large as possible. The stock
should clearly be in a down.
trend. Bad news should be ex-
pected ahead in the way of
lower earnings and a reduced
or possibly passed dividend.
The average short seller
tends to select a completely
different type of stock. He
seems to think that what goes
up must come down and,
therefore, probably will sell a
volatile stock of small capitali-
cation on a steep advance and
possibly at a new high. This
can be and usually is financial
suicide. Never sell an issue
with a great many fellow bears.
It is very difficult for the
average person to sell short
considerably below the high
and after a stock has trended
down for a while. Yet this is
exactly when it should be done
in order to try to make a
profit.
From my experience anc OBJ
servation in the market I be-
lieve that rarely does someone
make and keep money selling
short. 1t is extremely diff
cult for most people-especially
for non-professionals-to COM
pletely reverse their invest
ment thinking in the manner
required.

been of crucial value in ex-
banding world trade, settling
tariff disputes between nations
and setting the stage as 1t
is now doing in the Kennedy
Round-for worldwide tariff
reductions.
Five Negotiations
Through GAIT, there have
been five worldwide tariff ne
gotiations to date, reducing
tariffs on over $4,000 products
and involving tens of billions
OF dollars of trade. AS a dra-
matte Illustration, the average
United States tariff today is
around II per cent compared
with an average of so per cent
before World War II.
GAIT has been primarily
responsible for this. Its con-
tribution to the prosperity of
the Western trading nations
has been enormol }.
Nor is tariff-cutting the only
achievement of CATS small
staff at Geneva headquarters.
Every year it holds con-
ferences at which the mem
Der nations solve trade prob

councillor which each men,
Der nation has a representa-
tive-iS ready to settle dis
putes between members.
1t is facing its biggest test
of its life in the Kennedy
Round next spring, for, be-
cause of fights about tariffs
on farm products and Frances
stiff attitude, experts are wor-
rying out loud that the srhed-
uled talks may fail, and If so
GAIT itself might crumble
We must not permit this, for
it would be a disaster to the
free world.

GAIT stands for Genera,
Agreement on Tariffs &
Trade" and here is the tale
brought up to date.
At the end of World Wal
II, the trade markets of the
world were in chaotic condi-
ton. When a tariff-cuttine
deal was made, 1t was between
two countries only and thest
two would maintain higher
barriers against all other ma
tions. The tariff structure wa.
utterly befuddling and thu
high trade walls each natior

itors were drastically limiting
world commerce.
1t was the objective of thu
United States then, as it i
now, to expand world trade
and we urged that the nations
shift bargaining to a multi
nation and most-favored-na'
ton basis meaning tina
when one nation granted {

grant the same cut to al
others.

Investors now follow the fig

lion shares outstanding. This
is a decline from the record
bit still a substantial amount.
To the experienced, if one
can make money buying
shares on a rising market, il
should be equally simple to
make money going short in a
declining one. Nothing could be
further from the truth.
The object of a short sale is
to sell a stock high and buy it
back lower. To do this re-
qureS a variety of conditions
precisely the opposite of those
favoring an advance.
Against Our Nature
Short selling is against the
nature OF most of us. II in
wolves an element of fear that
does not exist in ordinary
purchases for a long account.
An investor who buys a stock
at any given price knows that
he cannot lose more than
B. wnat he paid. A bear who sells
a stock short never knows how
lluch he can lose.
Likewise, a buyer can, If he
chooses, wait indefinitely for q
profit. In most cases, he can
collect some dividends while he
is waiting. A short seller, on
the other hand, is naturally
nervous and impatient. He has
to borrow the stock he sold
ana, occasionally, pay for the
privilege. There are times when
he may even have difficulty
borrowing at all. Profits from
short selling are always short
term and fully taxable, even
should a short seller stay
short longer than six nonthS

change Commission proposals

Kennedy Makes
 A New Plug for His Tax Cut

WASHINGTON R - President Kennedy says US. economy twill inevitably move into a downturn" perhaps this year-if Congress doesn't act promptly to cut taxes.
 Kennedy told his news confer ence yesterday the congressional battle over tax legislation will be "a hard fight" But he was opti- mistic about getting an acceptable bill by the end of the session.
 ''We are going to get a bill for a tax reduction" Kennedy fore cast. "It won't be perhaps the bill we sent up, but I think it will be good bill"
 In a special message to Congress Jan. "A, Kennedy proposed a combi- nation of rate cuts and tax revi- sions that would produce, over the next three years, a net tax reduc- ton of $10 billion.
 Besides renewing and strength ening his plea for action on the tax package, Kennedy made these major points:
 The United States is doing more than the Europeans to defend Flu rope and intends to maintain its present combat strength there.
 He definitely plans no economic or political reprisals against Presi- dent Charles De Gaulle of France who shook the Western Alliance by quashing British entry into the European Common Market and b, spurning US. proposals for multi nation nuclear force in Europe.
 In remarks directed both at hi Republican critics at home - specifically Gov. Nelson Rocke Heller of New York - and friend | ly nations abroad, Kennedy said ''It is a mistake always to assum' that the United States is wrong and that by being disagreeable tt the United States, it is always pos sible to compel the United State! to succumb."
 In making his new plug for ( tax cut, Kennedy argued that in. action by Congress would mear restricted economic growth, high CT unemployment" and a bigger than-forecast deficit, already esti- mated at $119 billion for the ifs cal year that begins July 1. He described his tax package as "our plan to prevent a recession this year and the years to come"
