In the Stock Market

(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, June 20.— Diligent search fails to reveal any present development that can possibly be construed otherwise than very favorable. The credit question is gradually being corrected and with the movement of gold increasing a total of approximately $175,000,000 having been shipped here since the first of the year, the whole credit basis has been strengthened to a point where this subject, regardless of fluctuations in the brokers loans statement can be viewed only with optimism The improvement in the bond market, particularly for government securities, probably foreshadows a weekly statement indication further relaxation on the part of the federal reserve Tire fact that | time money has now declined from j 9i to slightly below 8 per cent is additional evidence that credit restrain is being removed. Conditions industrially are so well known that repetition is unnecessary. We should like to quote from an exceptionally high class bureau of international information to justify our optimistic views, “each European government is anxious to have quick official action taken on the Young plan and a conference will probably be summoned after Mr. Young and others have conferred with President Hoover. Opposition in Europe appears to be purely political. The great industrialists and financiers of each country have already given their assent. foreseeing anew trade era.” Births Bovs Julian and Rosa Roach. 1006 Hadlev James and Geneva Rush. 2366 Yandes.

WHEAT MAKES SMALL GAINS IN PIT OPENING Corn Unchanged to Higher: Oats Held Steady; Trading Dull. Bu United Prats CHICAGO, June 20.—Wheat futures were able to make small gains in the opening trade today because of the disappointing threshing returns in Oklahoma, and in spite of Liverpool’s failure to follow fully recent advances. Corn was firm, but oats started only steady. At the opening wheat was unchanged. Provisions were unchanged. While there has been a decided change in sentiment brought about by the reports that wheat in the southwest is not turning out the expected bumper yields, bulls are not receiving a great deal of assistance because of the record carryover and belief that the farm relief program will not be in operation for some time. Kansas and Missouri received seme rain over night. Corn continues to look to wheat for its main guiding influence, as the warm, fair weather, which is speeding crop progress, about offsets the disposition of farmers to hold on to their old corn. Oats have had only fractional fluctuations in the recent dull trade. Cash houses are picking up the nearby deliveries at every favorable opportunity. Chicago Grain Table June 20WHEAT— Prey. Open.
