Exchange May Not Move to New Jersey if City Taxes Are Vetoed by Mayor O’Brien. Bt RALPH HEXDERSHOT ~
# Time* Special Financial Writer The street is a greater place for rumors these days than the army seas during the World war. Almost every person one meets has “inside dope" of some sort about the proposed migration to New Jersey. Some brokers are all set to pull up stakes and move across the Hudson, while others are convinced that the New York Stock Exchange is merely rehearsing a play which never will be shown. It is becoming increasingly evident, in the opinion of brokers, that Mayor O'Brien will veto the new tax laws placing a levy on stock transfers and on brokerage profits. In the event he does so it probably is anybody's guess whether the move to New Jersey will be carried out, but the indications appear to suggest that the Exchange
will forget about the episode. There can be little doubt that the Exchange authorities do not wish to establish a New Jersey subsidiary, and there are those who believe that at first, at least, they were bluffing in their stand. They permitted the initiative to be taken by individual members and gave their official support to the plan only after it became known that the members were almost unanimously for it. a a tt An Important Point One important factor supports the view that the move will not be made if the mayor uses his veto. The Association of Stock Exchange Firms as late as Monday addressed a letter to the city chief asking him to veto the proposed taxes. If the Exchange was all set to move, irrespective of the mayor’s actions, it might well be asked why the association, which includes almost all Exchange firms, concerned itself with the

situation. The dope ’ in Wall Street was that the only reason O'Brien held out so long against a veto was that he had given his word to Samuel Untermyer, the city’s attorney in the case, that he would follow out his recommendations. Monday, Mr. Untermyer reversed himself and suggested that the taxes be dropped. This provides the mayor with an excellent ‘'out.” The cost to the Exchange members of throwing a scare into the city authorities will not be large. It probably will not amount to more than SSO for each member who signed up under the Exchange plan. Many of the members undoubtedly will feel it was worth much more even in these hard times. B B B Some Wanted to Move There undoubtedly are others, however, who took the threat really seriously. They may not be so well pleased if the New Jersey plans are folded neatly and put away in the tin box. Their clients have been apprised of the fact that the New York state tax of $4 a hundred shares can be avoided if the transactibns are transferred to another state— Chicago, for instance—and if and when they are called upon to reroute their orders they may be counted upon to make more noise than a pair of tomcats on a tin roof. But they probably will be able to do little more than make a noise. If the Exchange authorities say the song is ended, only the memory will remain. While dissatisfied brokers might have a good court case against the so-called committee in having plunked down SIOO in good faith for a specific purpose, it is not likely to get beyond the grumbling stage. They doubtless would not relish the possibility of being ordered to sell their memberships.

Sept. 28.—The stock market presented a steadier tone today after Wednesday’s decline of 1 to 5 points. A long list of issues made small gains ranging to a point. Some selling came into isolated issues and they reacted fractionally. Shorts covered in a few' of the leaders. The first transaction in U. S. Steel appeared to be buying from the bear side. The issue jumped % to 46 ’’i on 1,500 shares. The street anticipated greatly increased steel business through government-aided purchases of rails. Mining shares rallied smartly, and a firmer tone was noted in automobile issues despite strikes and strike threats. American Telephone firmed up % to 120% on the first sale. Case was up l 2 to 66 in the farm shares. New York Central opened at 39%, up 2*4 points on 1,500 shares to head a firm railroad division. The rails were among the weakest issues on the board Wednesday. Utilities continued steady to firm. Chemical shares were slightly higher. Wet stocks supported. Oils ruled firm. Among the issues to sag below the previous close were Western Union, Westinghouse Electric, Texas Corporation, and American & Foreign Power. Losses were small, however. During the early trading action quieted down with prices fluctuating in a narrow range around the opening.

GRAIN FUTURES WEAKEN UNDER STEADY SALES Continued Erratic Market Expected by Most of Trade. BY HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Pre* Staff Correaoendent CHICAGO. Sept. 28.—The grain market lost most of Wednesday's gains at the opening of the Board of Trade today. Wheat dropped 1 to l'-j cents, corn was off •’* cent and oats was down cent. Brokers were looking for a continued erratic wheat market, but felt that eventually a better situation will develop. Sentiment remained confused as a result of rumors from Washington of proposed action on money matters. No definite announcement has been made by the administration. Wheat trade Wednesday brought an incrased bearishness and an oversold condition. Covering up at the close corrected this, however, and a rally followed which sent wheat above the previous finish. Liverpool failed to respond this morning. Corn has been disregarding the news and continues to take its trend from wheat. Through the corn mart is highly unsettled, there has been considerable support. Oats lacks feature and. like corn, has been taking its cue from wheat. Chicago Primary Receipts —Sept. 27Bushels. .
