Wall Street Street Wonders How New Pool Rulings Will Work Out, and If Facts Are to Be Made Public. By RAIPII heNDERSHOT Times Special Financial Writer
The Street is deeply Interested these days in how the new reflation concerning pool operations will work out. No one expects such operations will cease or even greatly diminish as a result of the recent ruling by the New York Stock Exchange that members must report fully each Friday on all pool agreements they enter into, but It is belived that certain changes will be made in the way pools are operated. Very few members will tip their hands to the governors of the Exchange, or anyone else for that matter, on their pool interests or participation" To do so would be dangerous, for. while these governors
are. perhaps, as fin** a group of business men as are lorated anywhere, they are, nevertheless, in the brokerage business also and might make use of the information thus received. In all probability all Important pool operations will be carried on 'officially) by people who are not members of the Exchange. In such an event the Exchange would lack supervision. The members who are (unofficially) interested in pool operations will plead nonparticipation, and it is believed they will be able to hide their connections sufficiently to escape detection. , a a a Some Legitimate Operations There are, of course, what Wall Street chooses to call legitimate pool operations. These operations are mor<> or less in the nature of sponsorship, where a broker o r group of brokers take it on their shoulders to see that a proper market is made for an issue. Generally speaking, they buy stocks for support in

tinus of doprr.sf.ion and sell on advances which appear likely to get 1 out of hand. And where a security is regarded as being undervalued it is considered legitimate for a group to advance the price by careful operations. Tho question has arisen in brokerage quarters as to what the Ex- i ch.i:. . propos'-s to do with the information it does receive on pool I "i* : ' ‘H Will it be kept within the confines of the governors' room* or w .l it be made public for all to view? It is fair to assume that it will be k nt secret, but many believe there is no good reason why such should be the case. rile governors may lie more or less counted upon to take the attl- j tude that the "public would not understand" and that, therefore the information might be harmful They might also take the position that the information is of a confidential character, to be used only from a regulatory standpoint. a a a Information Would Be Welcomed Undoubtedly the brokers who furnished the information would not like to see it piddled around, and they could not reasonably be blamed for such a stand. But it would come in handy for investors and speculators who take their security purchases seriously. They would like Ur know much more about what makes the wheels go 'round in the market especially as it affects their particular holdings And if the Exchange authorities had the interest of the public really in mind when they made ine rulings they probably have given consideration, at leas 7, to a general release of the pool facts and figures. Under the new sorurities law underwriters must reveal a great deal of pertinent information concerning the deals thev have made " 11 : ' ir principals. There would seem to be no sound reason why the same procedure might not be followed in the case of listed securities in which someone has a special interest.

2TSODK A rw *Y BRUC£ CATTOM STRANGER’S RETURN" finds Phil Stong writing once more of lowa farm life; and it is delightful to have him doing this, if for no other reason than the confusion which covers the snooty eastern reviewers when they find someone actually extolling lowa as a pleasant place to live. The central character in this book is Grandpa Storr. an old but extremely sprightly Civil war veteran who lives on his lowa farm with two female dependents—a stepdaughter and a niece by marriage—and a unique hired man named Simon, who is profane and godless, but a sturdy rock to tie to in time of trouble. Into this home comes a long-lost granddaughter, who has been going it alone in New York and who Is forced by economic pressure to find a haven in the old homestead. The story has to do with her adjustment to farm life and with the efforts of the other two women to freeze her out so that they can inherit- grandpa's farm. The gals lay >ome pretty deep plots to do this, but Simon and Grandpa are too foxy for them, and in the end the granddaughter is firmly established. I'm not sure that this is as good a book as “State Fair." The girl from New York isn't always conI vmcing and the neighboring farmer with whom site falls in love is more than a little phony. But the book makes delightful reading jus: the same, and I can't help feeling that Mr. Stong is contributing something important to our literature by his sympathetic and zestful portrait of lowa farm life. Published by Harcourt. Brae® & Cos., this book is priced at $2. TRAIN STRIKES AUTO Linton Woman Hurt Critically in Accident at Crossing. By I'aitt and Pren LINTON. Ind..

WHEAT SLUMPS LIMIT IN WEAK TRADING RANGE Pegged Bottom Holds Major Grain From Further Losses. BY HAROLD E. RAIXVILLE IL'niied Pffii Stall Corrupondent CHICAGO. Aug. 12—All dellver- | ies of all grains adhered to the 1 pegged limits throughout the sesj sion on the Beard of Trade today. Only a few deliveries, principally September com. managed to better the artificial bottoms In effect since i July 31. but expiring next Tuesday. Asa result, trading was comparatively at a standstill. Pronounced weakness In Winnipeg wheat, with a 7-cent decline at one time, was a depressing factor. ! The Canadian market was down 12 1 cents from Thursday’s best levels with part of today’s drop attributed | to selling by American interests. However, a more optimistic feeling I was reported in many circles. At the close wheat was 2H to 3 I cents lower, corn 2\ to 3 7 * cents j lower, oats to 14 cents lower, rye 2'i to 34 cents lewer and barley j unchanged. Provisions were weak. Receipts were 39 ears of wheat, 109 corn and 87 oats. Cash wheat | was 3 4 to 7 cents lower, corn 3 to 6 j cents lower and oats 3 to 5 cents lower. Shipping sales were 5,000 bushels oats with 6.000 bushels wheat, 100.000 bushels corn and 8,000 bushels oats bobked to arrive. Chicago Primary Receipts —Aug. 12Last Today, week.
