Wall Street Stoppage of Normal Flow of Long-Term Investment Funds May Necessitate Some Adjustments. Bt RALPH HENDERSHOT Times Soril riaaacial Writer
The president of one of the larger Wall Street banks said recently that if any one of the companies of which he is a director decided to float anew securities issue he would promptly resign rather than accept the responsibility thus placed upon him under the new securities act. Other prominent men have adopted a similar attitude. It should not be inferred that these men are not in sympathy with the aim of the act. which is to protect investors against the sale of questionable securities. It should not be inferred, either, that these men
are seeking to sell securities to others they would not be willing to buy themselves. It merely means that the compensation they rtrceive as directors does not justify the risk they would be called upon to take in guaranteeing, in effect, the securities sold. The problem presented by this situation is a rather important one. No doubt many corporations not interested in short-term credit from the banks could use long-term funds to advantage if they were available Undoubtedly the use of this money would go a long way toward stimulating trade and helping the NRA over the top. ana Fault Not Easily Placed It might not be fair to say that the stoppage of the normal flow of long-term investment money is due to a fault in the securities act. Likewise it might not be fair to place the blame on the bankers or other prominent people acting as directors of our corporations. Nor can the issue be dismissed oy say-

ing that if present directors are unwilling to accept responsibility under the act they should make way for others. In the first place, the act would be of little use if it did not have teeth. But the banker-director could hardly be expected for the usual pay of S2O a meeting to risk his entire wealth in guaranteeing purchasers of securities against loss for some statement or omission of statement in a prospectus so long as we have ambulance-chasing attorneys. man Is Good Influence on Boards Moreover bankers ran r>e good influences on corporate directorate!, despite the manv apparent mistakes they have made in the past. If the bankers were to be replaced by people who are irresponsible financially the best interest of the corporations might not be served and the invstors might find it difficult to collect for their losses in the event the issue did not turn out right. Some modification might be advisable all around. It might be possible to temper the securities act to some extent without taking too much away from its effectiveness. It might also be possible to make directors much more responsible for their acts than they have been in the past without chasing the good as well as the bad off the boards entirely. And it might be possible to eliminate the practice of enticing uninterested bankers to boards of directors by offering them commercial accounts to place in their banks or other indirect inducements.

An URGENT WARNING to Trustees and Guardians You men and women who have on your minds the responsibility of conserving the means and guiding wisely the purchases of minors and others left under your charge— May we suggest that at this time you study carefully the probable future needs of your wards—for this Fall and Winter—and investigate our claim that purchases of apparel and staple goods made from our 61st Anniversary Sale assortments will save important sums of money. You may rely on Ayres’ salespeoples’ and department managers’ statements as to comparative value; or if you prefer, our Comparison Office Records may be made available to assist you in determining the wisdom of “stocking up” purchases. We know many of you have seen the wisdom of choosing a QUALITY background for the purchases you permit. It is hardly necessary to add that Sale alues, in Ayres’ Anniversary, are of standard quality, in good fashion, at the year’s lowest prices. L. S. AYRES & CO.

GOOD DEMAND j SENDS WHEAT 1 PRICES HIGHER Sentiment Turning Bullish on Cash Situation; Corn Firm. BY HARMAN W. NICHOLS I nited Pres* Staff Cnrre*nndfnt CHICAGO, Sept. 29,—The wheat market showed more strength today and at the opening of the Board cf Trade was up ’g to 1 cent. Corn was up 'g to N cent and oats up '* to ,17 cents. Rye was up ’-j cent. Brokers believed that the domestic cash situation gradually is hardening and that if nothing develops to start speculative liquidation, conditions will gradually favor the bull side as hedging pressure relaxes and primary arrivals dimish. Rumors that the government might finance wheat and corn farmers added to the confusion in the market pits. The failure of Russia to take part in the world acreage curtailment of wheat had been anticipated and it is not expected to influence the market. Liverpool today was fractionally lower than expected. ■With assurance that a good crop is in the offing, corn was being offered freely. Hedging on bookings, however. was a depressing factor as far as the futures are concerned. Oats continues to display a fair degree of independence.
