Wall Street Wholesale Liquor Dealers Also Threaten to Move to New Jersey—Will Meet Moore Today. By RALPH HENDERSHOT Timet Special Financial Writer
The wholesale wine and liquor dealers of New York hope to pull a page from the New York Stock Exchanges’ book of pleasant memories. They don’t like the taxes which New York state plans to levy on them, bo they propose to move to New Jersey if they can get assurance of a better deal on the other side of the Hudson. Tobias Miller, vice-president of the Califruit Wineries Company, Inc., will head a dealers’ delegation to talk it over with Governor Moore in Jersey City today. He has had correspondence with the Governor, he says, and he is rather hopeful that the New Jersey authorities will be able to see his point of view. Being international dealers, Mr. Miller claims there is no special
reason why their headquarters should be in New York. The interim legislation in this state nicks them for $5,000 to do business, and if they rectify their products they must pay an additional $15,000 a year. Mr. Miller maintains such a high tax is prohibitive sos Hie old-time wholesalers and plays into the hands of the big distilleries. It may be some consolation to the boys over in Jersey to feel that, even though they couldn't get the juicy stock business, they stand a chance of going over in a big way in the new liquor trade. n a a Exchange Takes Another Step The New York Stock Exchange appears to be determined to bring about a unified system of accounting for corporations the securities of which are listed on its board. It took another step in that direction recently when it revealed a survey it had just completed in connection with the subject, and the governing committee went on record in a resolution
Ralph Hendershot
favoring the preliminary work being done along that line by the committee on stock list. The Exchange is to be commended for its unified accountancy efforts. Stockholders, and, in fact, every one connected with the security business, have been handicapped by reason of the wide differences betwen the accounting methods used by It has been impossible to make any worthwhile comparisons between corporations for the purpose of establishing the relative w’orth of their shares. ana Would Benefit Shareholders The differences in methods h:?ve not developed for the purpose of misleading shareholders. They represent, for the most part, differences of opinions on the part of auditors and accountants. The adoption of standard methods, therefore, is not necessarily to stamp out questionable practices but rater to simplify accounttag procedure for the benefit of shareholders and ffivestors in general. From all appearances the Exchange is not yet ready to adopt new rules making it necessary for corporations with listed stocks to comply with a set accounting policy, but it seems to be rapidly getting into position to put such rules into eflect. The readiness with which the leading companies are willing to co-operate is encouraging.

BY MAX BUCKINGHAM Times Special Financial Writer NEW YORK, Oct. 28.—Trading slowed down on the stock market today and prices eased off fractions to more than 2 points. There were long intervals during the two-hour session when no quoations came out. What blocks did were small. The one exception was a 25,000-share block of Radio Corporation, at a fractional loss, which was merely a cross sale. Fixing of a government gold price 6 cents above yesterday’s quotation and more than a dollar above London’s quotation, had little or no effect. Chief worry in Wall Street concerned possibility of government regulation of share and commodity markets. Cotton Mart Lower This was added to dissatisfaction on rail co-ordinator Eastman's rejection of steel company bids for more than 800,000 tons of steel rails. The trading community had looked forward to acceptance of the steel company bids as an incentive to bring life into declining steel operations. The bid' was $37.75 and Eastman said the government would loan money for rails only at $35 bids plus adjustments to be made later. Steel companies were silent as to future plans. With these heavy factors prevailing, the stock market sagged off along with lower wheat prices and a slightly lower cotton market. Wheat prices rose from their lows. Repeal Issues Weak All issues on the stock market felt the heaviness. United States Steel was off more than a point to slightly above 39, American Telephone showed a fractional decline at 1151-2, American Can was fractionally lower. Heaviest, losses were felt in mining and repeal issues. United States Smelting led the former down with a loss of more than 2 points to 93 Cerro De Pasco was about a point lower, while Mclntyre Porcupine was off almost 2 points. In*the repeal group. National Distillers had more than 2 points loss at 3914, while United States Industrial Alcohol and American Commercial Alcohol showed losses of fractions to more than a point.

BUYING WAVE IN WHEAT AIDS FUTUREPRICES U. S. to Curb Speculation in Grain Mart Changes Sentiment. BY HARMAN w. NICHOLS United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Oct. 28.—Reports the government will attempt to curb or eliminate speculation in grains and commodities today brought about a change in sentiment on the Board of Trade. At the close wheat was down & s to % cent; com was 1% cents lower, and oats was % cent lower. A general liquidating movement was started which carried prices off sharply. Wheat broke as much as 3'a cents at the extreme and corn and rye were off 2 cents and outside influences counting for little. The further advance in the price of newly mined gold was ignored as a market factor, and resumption of the government's buying program of cash wheat also had little effect. Toward the close a wave of buying moved into the May futures which carried prices up rapidly. Provisions were easier early with grains. CHICAGO FRCIT MARKET By United Press CHICAGO.
