PRICES DECLINE IN STOCK LIST; RECOVERLATER Brokerage Loan Increase Brings Heavy Selling at Opening.
Average Stock Prices
Average of twenty industrials Thursday was 214.43. up 2.53. Average of twenty rails wis 139.48, up 1.03. Average of forty bonds was 97.28, up .09B>) United Press NEW YORK, July 6.—The substantial Increase in brokerage loans reported at the close of the market Thursday brought considerable selling into the market today and opening prices in the speculative leaders were generally slightly lower. Heavy buying, however, appeared on the recession and prices quickly recovered to around their previous closing levels. After opening at 190 Vs, General Motors rose to 192, while United States Steel climbed to 138% from an Initial price of 13814. Similar recoveries were scored proportionately in other leaders. Heavy buying appeared in Montgomery Ward and Sears Roebuck, both issues selling around their best levels of the year, while International Nickel, Victor Talking Machine and Missouri-Kansas-Texas sold at new highs on the movement. Special issues like Radio, Wright Aero and Texas & Pacific continued in favor, all making substantial recoveries from their early lows, while investment buying was again noted in many standard issues like Packard and New York Central. Goodrich Leads Rubbers Rubber continued the improvement started in the previous session under the leadership of Goodrich. Describing the market, the Wall Street Journal’s financial review today said: "Stocks were thrown on the market in the early dealings, owing to the nervousness created by the unexpected large increase of $147,812,000 in brokerage loans in the week ended July 3 and unfavorable showing of the, weekly Reserve statements. “Rediscounts increased $159,136,000, demonstrating the extent to which member banks were forced to borrow from regional institutions to take care of mid-year payments. An additional $36,000,000 in gold was lost, bringing the reserve ratio of the whole system down to 65.4 per cent, against 68.7 per cent a week ago and 76.8 per cent a year ago. “This poor comparison influenced substantial declines in the principal trading stocks.” Trading Turns Dull Trading turned dull around noon following attempts to start fresh liquidation in the speculative leaders. Offerings, however, were wellabsorbed on the recession and no further declines from the morning lows were made by principal trading stocks. Missouri-Kansas-Texas continued to feature the low-priced rails, run- | ning up nearly 2 points to anew high on the movement at 57 Vs, while Kansas City Southern and Texas & Pacific were in demand around their best levels. Standard rail and industrial leaders like General Electric, Northern Pacific and National Biscuit continued in good demand.

In the Stock Market
(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, July 6.—The substantial rise in broker’s loans, accompanied by a further increase in rediscount by Federal Reserve members Is surprising to many. Explanation of the loan increase may be found in an examination of events transpiring during the period in which the figures are computed. There occurred a speedily advancing market during a period of credit stringency and probably the purchasing of much stock by investors who will now be in position to complete paylnent because of interest and diviident receipts. Insofar as the higher discounts are concerned, this may be viewed In the light of the banking institutions taking advantage of profit making opportunities because of the spread between the rediscount and open market rate for money. However, disregarding for the moment the causes of both conditions the fact remains that the credit situation is easier and we do not believe that any important price recessions is necessary.

G. 0, P. TO TALK ‘DIG DINNER PAIL' Prosperity to Be Slogan of Campaign. By United Press WASHINGTON, July 5. The “full dinner pail” prosperity issue was emphasized to Republican leaders again today by Dr. Hubert Work, chairman of the Republican national committee, in a letter to all national committeemen and committee women. Work directed all organizers to instruct speakers to emphasize the argument that election of Governor Smith and other Democrats would create a situation in which “precedent warrants the belief that national prosperity would-cease.” Work’s letter to national committee members urged an “aggressive campaign.” The letter mentioned only the tariff and prosperity issues, but Work said other issues probably would be taken up later. “The campaign policy we propose to follow will be informative and constructive only," the letter said. “The promptings of conscience and personal liberty within the law are not pro jer subjects for political debate.” This comment was interpreted as a warning to avoid the prohibition issue.
