RECORD SHOWS STOCK MARKET SHOCK PROOF Buying Indicates Depressing Faciors Eliminated or Discounted. MONEY RATE FAVORABLE BY MONITOR. Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public ledger. NEW YOKE, March 10— It is possible to record another week of well maintained activity and strength, with interest distributed over a wide range :i ong industrials and specialties, while the chief feature among the railroads has been the awakening of dormant issues in the low priced division. There has been no indication that any important recession was impending and, in fact, the apparently shock—proof temperament of the market would suggest that auch a movement is highly improbable. , The present rising tendency of the market may be given the following tabloid explanation. It evidently Is based on favoring money conditions, a strong technical position, ir creasing signs of business improvement, the feeling that all or most of the old depressing factors have been discounted and perhaps most important of all the belief that threatened difficulties will be surmounted satisfactorily. There is little doubt about the strength of the market position. This has been disclosed in several ways. In the first place, brokers' loans are relatively small. There is, moreover, little evidence of large oulside speculative holdings of securities. Usually this would lie reflected in selling on reactions, but It is a notable feature of the present market that on moderate setbacks offerings of stocks diminish materially. In addition to the signs it has been noted that the borrowing demand for certain inactive issues has been difficult to fill, thus pointing to the conclusion that liquidation has been thorough and stocks have passed into strong hands. ANNUAL REPORTS FAIL TO DISTURB SENTIMENT. The market Is now getting an average of two to three important annual reports daily. They have not disturbed sentiment in spite of the fact that in many eases a deficit is reported. The reasons for the failure to cause unsettlement may be explained on the ground that they are in no case worse than expected, and in some instances they refleev a decided tendency toward revival. The week's statement on unfilled tonnage by the United States Steel Corporation was about in line with anticipations, ft showed a decline of about 100,000 tons in unfilled orders, but the exhibit was believed to be due as much to an increase in operations as to the sluggish demand for steel products. A dtcidedly better feeling has been created by the improved position of agriculture. resulting from the advance in prices for farm commodities. Sooner or later, it is believed, the general business situation will have to reflect the increment In values. Since the first of the year wheat is up 40 per cent, corn. 40 per cent; oats, about 30 per cent; hogs, about 35 per cent, and sheep are selling at about twice the figure quoted a year ago. Wool is higher, materially so, with a good demand for the better grades. Western Jobbing centers already are taking on a tone of optimism in expectation of better trade. MONEY SITUATION BOLDS FAVORABLE. The oney situation continues favorable for sustained security values. Call money this week has been as low as 3% per cent, due largely to the Increased supply of funds In anticipation of income tax payments on the 15th. The absorption of new issues this week has proceeded in this market at a rate somewhat in excess of $85,000,000. These are the favorable elements in the situation that have served to offset some rather unsettling developments in the near outlook. Although general approval meets the statement of our reasons for refusing to participate in the economic conference at Genoa it is considered unfortunate that sound objections to our cooperation existed. Affairs in India evidently ire approaching a crisis and the only reason for a moderate degree of complacency at this time rests n the policy e. passive non-resistance that seems io indicate an absence of violence in the movement. The chief unlavorable domestic features are represented by ‘he apparent likelihood of a coal strike on April 1 and the inability to settle the labor trobles In the New England cotton mill district. Congress, of course, persists in a line of action or inaction that appears to be motivated entirely by the desire for re-elec-tion .The ‘‘bonus" is In a snarl, the tariff program apparently hopelessly tangled while the obstructionists in the Senate bid fair to nullify the constructive labors of the conference on limitation of armaments. Obviously, it required optimism of an unterrifled character to ignore such factors.—Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company.

STOCK MARKET CLOSES STEADY United States Steel Suffers Decline of 1 Point. NEW YORK, March 13—The stock market closed steady today, although many issues showed recessions of from 1 to '2 points from the high levels. United States Steel yielded to 91%, a loss of 1 point, and Baldwin Locomotive fell 1% points to 106%. Mexican Petroleum showed a loss of nearly 2 points from its early high at 126% and Studebaker was in supply, dropping to 102%, compared with an early high of 103%. Texas & Pacific Railway moved up over 2 points to 34, anew high record for tile year. Government bonds were unchanged and railway and other bonds steady. Total sales of stocks for the day were 984,700 shares; bonds, $15,243,000. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —March 13— From all appearances and _ Judging from the volume of sales, the inference naturally would be that the market was broad and active. The fact is, however, that the commission houses participated only moderately in the day’s trading and as heretofore, activity is dependent to a considerable extent on the interests identified with the various issues who have found it a comparatively easy matter to bid up their respective favorites and today, as during many previous sessions, now highs were again established and some new specialties were brought into the limelight. , , . , The news lrom foreign lands has been entirely Ignored as a factor in our own market. There can be little doubt that conditions as reported in the public press deserves more serious consideration. The weakness in foreign exchange l, responsive to these conditions and if continued wav begin to tell in a shrinking volume of sales of our commodities for export. , ~ Out? reason why the foreign situation is ignored ts no'doubt the evidence of improvement in domestic business that now confronts the public, this evidence coming from various sections and from various industries. A little item from Chicago showing that 200 building permits were issued last week, compared with 171 for the corresponding week last year, illustrates this point. , Financial conditions never were better in this country to facilitate large stock market operations. \\> must bear in mind that we have already made considerable headway and must be prepared for more frequent ami more Important actions than we have expected so. far. Some setback at this time would not be out of place. TWENTY STOCK AVERAGE. NEW YORK, March 13.—Twenty industrial stocks last Saturday averaged 87.93, up .75 per cent.

GRAIN VALUES BREAK SHARPLY Visible Supply of Corn Is Largest on Record. CHICAGO, March 13.—A big break in the grain market came today on reports that demand for grains for export was alight. Reports Influencing the market were that over 65,000,000 bushels of wheat was now en route overseas, which is about enough to care tor the demand. Corn prices dropped on information that the visible supply had Increased 3,000,000 bushels, which makes the greatest visible supply in record. Provisions were lower. May wheat opened up %c at $1.37% and closed off sc. July wheat opened at sl.lß, up %c, closing off 3c. May corn opened up %c at 63%e, closing off 2%c. July corn opened at 66%c, up %c, and closed off 2%c. May oats opened at 39%c, off %c, and closed off lc. July oats opened unchanged at 42%c and closed off 3%c. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —March 13. Wheat—Foreign markets were higher, but as a decline in Sterling exchange was an offset, our market was not responsive. We seem to have reached the point where there must be an actual demonstration of theories of exhaustion. At the present tim, this demonstration is not appearing, primary receipts are larger than any one expected, the visible is not decreasing as rapidly ns it should, the total, including bonded wheat, is 43,000,000 bushels as against 26,000,000 bushels last year. Cash wheat is slow sale in all markets with flour trade again quiet. Recent rains have changed the color of the crop news, all reports now being favorable. As to the foreign demand, the seaboard reports inactivity in export circles, premiums for cash wheat in Winnipeg are easier, world's shipments much smaller than a week ago, nonetheless the amount on passage shows a small increase. The entire market is characterized by apathy, it plainly is apparent that new motives are necessary to revive general interest. When wheat was 30 cents lower, general business conditions, industrial unrest, etc., were factors in the market. No mention has been made of these conditions recently, but the situation In India, South Africa and Ireland together with the attitude of coal miners, should not be overlooked. Corn and Oats—Export bids for corn are below the ideas of sellers, outside of this, the cash situation has undergone no change except that receipts are steadily growing smaller and discounts fur current receipts slowly disappearing. This market, like wheat, seems to have forgotten the heavy consumption that has been going through the winter and is now inclined to look at the enormous visible supply, which is a record in size. From the standpoint of the consumer. The oats market is still neglected, the volume of shipping busings being insignificant. Neither one of these markets displays individuality, their action probabiy will reflect that of wheat. Provisions —In this market, ns in the grains, the subsidence of general interest is more potent than any particular developments iu the underlying situation. Foreign trade Is rather slow, resulting in some hedging sales coming into the market. CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE. —March 13WHEAT— Open. High. Low. Close.

LEGION PLANS TOLAUNCHJOB DRIVE MARCH 20 Nation-Wide Campaign to Be Waged for Relief of Jobless Yanks. With civic organizations in every city, town, and community from Maine to California swinging into action at a given signal, with governors of States and mayors of cities marshalling their forces and detailing units for duty, and sub-eoimnittees representing every ele™ ment in the country falling into line, an attack on unemployment, directed by the American Legion from its headquarters here will be launched March 20, aiming at the immediate relief of the 700.000 ex-service men now jobless throughout the nation. Employers and business men in every town will be invited to meetings of special Legion committees in charge of the project, and will be asked to create jobs and stimulate production in all lines of industry. The Legion intends to work ouly with such methods as have already proved effective where they have been tried. Distribution of employment by changing men on daily shifts: pushing of engineering projects, bridge repair. and county highway improvement; speeding up of municipal and public utility enterprises woodyards, recreation centers; dredging, paving, installation work of all kinds; reforestation and reclamation projects; truck gardening, with the establishment of community gardens worked by ex-soidier labor; stimulating biulding and real estate development; encouragement of the baek-to-the-farm” movement —all these means will be stressed In a concerted effort to put an end to what Hanford Macnider, commander of the Legion, has termed “the greatest crisis in ihe Legion’s history, the jobless soldier.’’ In handling the ‘‘employment day” program in the larger cities the Legion will suggest each city be bivided into regions, each under its own post and employment committee, with a committee co-ordinating the efforts all.
