In the Stock Market

ißy Thomson A McKinnon) NEW YORK. March 4.—While the increases in the Stock Exchange loans last monthy may have exceeded expectations, the total still is more than two billions under that :of a year ago. It is unlikely that | expansion from the present low ! levels of borrowings can be conI structed as other than an indication ! of a gradual revival of confidence in the security markets. As long as such loans remain at a moderat* level, there is ample room for further expansion in the total before it can truthfully be said that the technical position of the market has been impaired in this respect. The extensive publicity now attending the subject of unemployment perhaps has too much of a political aspect to be taken over seriously, as competent authorities seem agreed that stepping up of industrial activity and good business is to be anticipated within a matter of sixty days or so. Consequently the problem of unemployment gives promise of being alleviated within a reasonably short time. The less satisfactory reports from steel centers, of course, are disappointing, especially the failure of the automobile industry to more quickly expand operations and it is possible that this subject may for a brief period exert sufficient influence upon the market to justify the suggestion that a somewhat more cautionary attitude is advisable. We therefore are inclined to suggest that for the present at least a more conservative policy would be to await moderate reactions before undertaking fresh commitments.

WHEAT FUTURES SELL LOWER ON SHORT COVERING Corn and Oats Prices Weak in Sympathy With Major Grain. Hu l nitrd press CHICAGO. March 4 Wheat i opened irregularly lower on the Board of Trade today. Liverpool opened easy on increased offerings from Canada and Argentina, but short covering firmed prices up Trading was rather quiet, with few offers and very little pressure to sell. Corn was weak with wheat but oats had a slight advance. At the opening wheat was unchanged to 1% cents lower, corn wa unchanged to cent lower and oats was unchanged to '1 cent lower and oats was unchanged to \ cent : higher. Provisions were steady. Following the drop here Monday. Liverpool opened sharply lower but firmed up somewhat to stand V. cent to Hi cents lower at mid-after-noon. Normally supply and demand : conditions M ould dictate lover price j levels until wheat moved freely into consumptive channels, but the farm board is in the market to protect i the farmer, and. while it seems willing to permit liquidation, it does not intend that demoralization should appear to affect general business. The weakness in wheat is offsetting the sound fundamental ’situation in corn. Total supplies are only 998.000,000 bushels this year, against last year's 1,509,000.000 bushels, the smallest total since 1919 M’ith one exception. Cash demand remains good, with industries taking the better grades freely. The available supply of oats is smaller than at any time since 1916, but the market is under the influence of M’heat, and is not following its individual considerations. Asa result prices are irregular and more or less weak.
