Drop in Bond Prices Causes Concern: Slump in Fresh Somers Starts Something With Talk of Moving limn special Financial Writer
Thff gradual slump In bond prices of late has aroused considerable interest in the financial district. Many had anticipated a movement in the other direction aft'r Labor day, due to the reinvestment demand which usually makes itself feit at around that time. Those who subscribe th® old theory that bonds usually point the way for the movement of stock values are beginning to wonder whether shares are about to give way or whether the unusual circumstances wrought about by the new Securities Act are responsible for thp present conditions in the bond market.
The volume of new bond offerings during the last several months has b®Pn exceedingly small, and th® prospects for new offerings are said to be poor. Ordinarily this would be expected to divert reinvestment funds into the open market and make for firmer prices. A factor which probably should not be overlooked ’n that respect, however, is the current of “window dressing" operations, which would make themselves felt ordinarily. Another is the unusual care being ®xercised by security houses these davs in the making of suggestions to potential bond buyers. 000 Insurance Loans It will be interesting to watch developments over the next few months as a result of the lifting of restrictions on life insurance loans in New York Star® by George S. Van Schaick. superintendent of insurance. This should increase the potential buying

power of a great many people, bir. whether borrowings will increase in any substantial amounts remains to be seen. Insurance people maintain they have been granting loans for all emergencies, and the assumption is that such loans are asked for only in emergency cases. a a a The Rank Examiner Request The N'ow York agenov of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation has sent requests to all iocal banks for competent men to examine bank books in the Second Federal Reserve District. It asks the loan of these men to prepare for the coming into effect of deposit insurance on Jan. I, 1934. In all probability this request will be met promptly, although thp general scheme is no s likely to meet with special approval. The banks mat not tak® kindlv to having men from competitive institutions prowling around among th®ir books, but th® banks which can send their men out on scouting trips under government authority may be expected to jump at the chance. naff The Rest of the Story One wonders how the New York city bond salesmen hired some time ago are making out The figures on selling costs would be interesting, too.

BY ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial F.ditor NEW YORK, Sept. 13.—Stocks ruled steady to firm in today’s short session. The exchange closed at noon for the NRA parade. A weak dollar offset adverse steel news and indications the city of New York would impose additional tax burdens on stock transfers, and utility companies. The steel news was conveyed.by the Iron Age which reported the industry operating at 41 per cent of capacity, against 45 a w’eek ago and, of more significance, that authority found consumption demand declining. Electric Output Gains Electricity output made a creditable showing, the total for the week ended Sept.'9. showing a rise of 11.1 per cent over the corresponding week of 1932. On the preceding week the per cent gain over the previous year was 11.8. The total for the week declined from the w r eck before on account of inclusion of the Labor day holiday. United States Steel touched 5434 and came back to 554. where it was up L from the previous close. Other leaders were higher in the various groups. A fair-sized group of special issues made new' highs for the year, including Freeport Texas at 45 1 2, up 2; Kelvinator 15%. up Its; Mahieson Alkali 40 %, up l 1 ®; Motor Meter 5 V up IV and Motor Products 33 V up 3 V Folx Film equaled its high at 18%. up 2V Rails made small gains with the exception of Pere Marquette which dropped nearly 5 points, to 26 V Carloading reports for the week ended Sept 9 are making poorer comparisons with a year ago than those of the preceding week. Mail Issues in Remand Farm equipments and mail order shares met demand near the close, following advances in grains. Wheat rose more than 3 cents a bushel following announcement the agricultural adjustment administration w'ould subscribe export of 30.000.000 to 35.000.000 bushels of stored w'heat from the Pacific northwest. Cotton futures gained about 50 cents a bale, and other commodities ruled steady to firm on inflation talk. Trading picked up in volume as the clos(£ neared and prices made new- highs for the day. About the only group which did not participate w r as the utility which was held back by tax fears.

The ABC of the NRA Below are given answers to questions sent to The Times by readers seeking information on problems arising from the National Recovery Act.
Q—ls the hotels of a town obtain th* blue eagle lw, agreeing to a forty-hour week then allow their employes to work two weeks at that scale, can one hotel go back to working the help fifty-two hours a week? It is paring the minimum hour rate for fifty-two hours. R R B A—No. Until such time as the permanent code for hotel industry making othe*- provisions than the above is approved by the President, or a temporary modification of the PRA for hotels is approved by the NRA. hotels displaying the blue eagle must observe the provisions of the PRA. Under the PRA, the maximum permissible working week is forty hours. 000 *
Q —l am working in a doctor's office as his assistant, and am working only thirty hours a week, a.s I have one afternoon off each week He can afford to pay me only a small salary, which isn t enough for me to meet expenses. Would there be any law forbidding me to continue working for him, then work in n restaurant as a waitress through the dinner hour for an evening? Do doctors come under the NRA? P. O D A—Doctors are under no compulsion to sign the PRA. according to a letter by Donald Richberg, general counsel for the NRA. If they wish, they voluntarily may comply with the terms of the agreement to be a part of the general program of re-employment and higher wages. There is nothing in the NRA program to prevent you from holding two part-time jobs. 000 Q —What are the maximum hours a week for a truck driver employed by an employer working under the NRA substitute construction industry cade? M. K. A—The temporary modification of the PRA for the construction industry provides as follows: ‘‘Employers in the construction industry shall pay wages not less than the minimum rate of wages for unskilled labor hereby estblished. which shall be not less than 40 cents an hour unless the hourly rate for the same class of york on July 15. 1929. was less than 40 cents an hour in which case the hourly rate shall be not less than that of July 15, 1929, and in no event less than 30 cents per hour... Employers in the construction industry shall not employ any employee in excess of the maximum average of thirty-five hours a week during a six-month calendar period, or forty-eight hours in any week in such period, or eight hours in any one day.’’ These rates apply to the least skilled labor in the industry. Rates for skilled labor should be adjusted above this figure to maintain already existing differentials in rates paid skilled and unskilled labor. 000 Q—l am employed by a wholesale cigar company. We are members of the National Association of Tobacco Dealers. We have submitted a code which allows a 48hour week. Our code has nor been, accepted by the NRA. Should we observe the blanket code of 40 hours until our code has been approved?—A. L. K. A-f-You should observe the provisions of the PRA until such time as NRA approves a temporary modification of the PRA for your industry, or until such time as the permanent code for your industry is approved by the President. 0 0 0 Q-—What is the code for furniture workers? Also, are they allowed to pay boys from 16 to 19 years old less than the code? I have a small repair shop which brings in from one to five dollars a week, which I work at after work hours. Wili I have to give that up? I do the work at home. Is a man and his w’ife allowed to have a job at the same time? Is a man working in the postoffice allowed to do other work after his ffice hours?—F. W. A —Temporary modification of the PRA for furniture manufacturers provides for a maximum working week of forty hours at a minimum wage rate of not less than 34 cents an hour for factory workers. Certain of the approved codes carry a provision preventing employes from evading the maximum hour provisions of the codes by working part time for other employers, but if you own and operate this shop in your home, it probably would be ruled that you were not working for another employer and so could continue the practice. There is nothing in the NRA program prohibiting both man and wife from working. Government employes are not subject to the provisions of the codes; however, the civil service commission recently issued a statement saying that the practice of government employes holding outside jobs in addition to their federal employment would be looked upon with disfavor.

FUTURES SHUW FRACTIUN GAINS IN SLOW TRADE Shifting of Inflation Talk Aids Grains in Early Advance. BY HARMAN \V. NICHOLS I nited Pre** Staff Correnond<nt CHICAGO. Sept 13—Grains on the Board of Trade slid up fractionally today, wheat being up % to cent. Although talk of inflation had quieted somewhat, the talk shifted from the market circles at Washington and this was said by operators to have had some stimulating effect on the trend of the market. Corn and oats followed wheat's upward course, being up ' 2 cent and oats s to > 2 cent. Inflation talk, which has been both a burr and a prod in the side of the wheat market recently, was subsiding to some degree today. Operators, it appeared, were forgetting the talk of inflation and turned to the recovery plan to await developments. Observers looked on the large flour sales of Tuesday as an indication that the United States was leaning toward a domestic basis as far as wheat is concerned Liverpool was slightly stronger. The cash demand for wheat in the United States is still going strong and other markets are inclined to take their cue from this grain. Heavy rains in lowa, Kansas and Nebraska last night held the corn crop to some extent. Oats remained steady and in a bullish condition.
