In the Stock Market

ißv Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, Nov. 20.—Capable leadership and 100 per cent cooperation Is quickly banishing any ideas except those of optimism. With the railroad executives prepared to spend hundreds of millions of dollars. the prospect of still cheaper money, assurance of the employment of the masses, from whom the bulk of the purchasing power of the nation emanates, an already sound industrial structure should steadily improve and quickly dispel all ideas of a business recession. Measured by the most conservative standards and regardless of the substantial recovery in values during the past week, investors are still offered exceptionally attractive bargains. Yields of upward of 7 per cent are still numerous in an extensive list of high grade common stocks, and the natural development should be toward the diversion of capital Into these, inasmuch as the demand for fixed yield investments is stead<lv lowering the return on both bonds and preferred stocks. If ever ‘here was a time when all moderate recessions should be used for careful additions to one’s holdings, surely this is it.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

PROFIT-TAKING HOLDS WHEAT PRICESJLEVEL Snow Reported Over Corn Belt, With Fall in Temperatures. By United Press CHICAGO, Nov. 20. General selling in the way of profit-taking and the easing of prices at Liverpool caused an uneven opening in wheat on the Board of Trade here today. The rising prices for the last several days have weakened the technical position and bulls are desirous of keeping prices around the present level. Corn and oats were effected by the drop in wheat and fell in sympathy. At the opening wheat was % cent higher to 1% cents off, corn was % to % cent lower, and oats was Vi to % cent lower. Provisions opened steady. Liverpool opened about as expected this morning being over 2 cents higher at the start, but reacted from this and was only 1% cents up about mid-morning. A great deal of Tuesday’s strength came from the belief that the government would issue a tentative stabilizing order and would advance the prices for loans to operators. The short interest has been considerably reduced. The country is not offering com as freely as was expected, though northwestern lowa Is reported to have sold heavily late Tuesday. Considerable snow is reported over the belt and much lower temperatures. The oats market shows quite a bit of buying of December and selling of May by elevators and cash interests. Offerings have been limited.
