Trends Protective Groups Coming In for Attention. BY JOHN T. FLYNN Tim*. Special Writer NFAV YORK, Nov. 2.—The early history of the Nc w Deal seems so far away that it ) ( ficult to remember clearly. B. enerally ev'ry one can recall tne brave words about "driving the money changers out of the temple,” It was just about that time that American holders of foreign bonds
were feeling the lull force of the enormous losses they had sustained. Banking houses in America had sold to ill - informed investors billions of dollars of bonds of European, Asiatic, African and South American enterprises and governments. It

was a sorry tale and at the moment the bankers were in bad because of their practices. Neva rthelcss they had been quite busy in that racket which has come in for so much airing recently the bondholders’ committee racket. Immediately upon a default the bankers who had sold the issue:, rushed in to represent the bondholders. Whatever the facts were, Congress became convinced that the bondholders were not likely to get a very fair deal at the hands of the men who had sold them the tainted merchandise. a a a AN American Council of For- . eign Bondholders had been organized on the European model in lorn to represent bondholders in good faith and without connection of any kind with the bankers. But Congres., thought the representation should be under the sponsorship of the government. The American council, I believe, agreed with this and urged this course. Congress then passed Section II of the Securities Act of 1033 under which a foreign bondholders committee was authorized to be organized under Federal Trade Commission sponsorship, with $75,000 from the RFC to finance it. It was to come into being when the President thought it, necessary. The act provided, however, that any one connected directly or indirectly with the bankers should not have any connection with this committee. My next recollection of this was that Commissioner Stevens of the Federal Trade Commission was handling the matter. The next I heard was that Mr. Stevens had resigned rom the commission to become head of a foreign bondholders’ council, but not under Section 11. The President approved or at least did not object to the committee of the council. There were some very respectable persons on this committee. But there were also some bankers. At. the time I protested that this was not what Congress had in mind, that Section 11 was being permitted to die quietly. I understand that the independent council of foreign bondholders called attention to this also. a a u THEN the new bondholders group was forgotten. And now suddenly it comes out that they have been functioning quite merrily with funds being supplied by great banking houses of Now York and other places—J. P. Morgan & Cos., Kuhn, Locb <V Cos.. Dillon, Read & Cos., the Chase National Bank and a host of others. All this is brought to light by the SEC. Also the council is governed by an executive committee of five. They are Pierre Jay, chairman of the board of the Fiduciary Trust Cos. and former vice president of the Chnso National Bank; John C. Traphagen, president of the Bank of New York and Trust Cos.; Hendon Chubb of the Central Hanover and chairman of the U. S. Guaranty Cos.; Thomas D. Thatcher of Simpson, Thatcher <fc Bartlett, well-known Wall Street law firm, and Francis White, former assistant Secretary of State. Is this what Congress intended?

STOCKS TREND LOWER AFTER EARLIER START General Motors, National Distillers Set New Highs for Year. BY ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, Nov. 2.—Stocks i turned down in the late dealings' today after a rise led by General j Motors and National Distillers, | both of which made new highs.j Trading was moderately active. | Traders bought General Motors] on belief that directors would order a substantial extra Monday. At the same time considerable profit-tak- ; ing -ame into Chrysler and it lost | about a point net. Auburn, weak ] Yesterday, was steadier. Motor I equipments were quieter. Enthusiasm for the automobile ; stocks appeared to have abated as the New York automobile show opened. The usual procedure is for profit-taking to develop when the show actually opens and hence today's irreguluarity was considered normal. Trading lightened when the market turned down and losses generally were small. Allied Chemical on a few sales lost a point. So did Greyhound. Western Union, Stone & Webster, Columbia Gas and the local tractions were the heavier losers with declines ranging to more than 2 points. Week in Review The stock market ran into selling, the early part of the week and then j came back sufficiently to wipe out j the losses. Trading continued ac- j tive. Automobile shares featured. Gen- : era! Motors and Chrysler both made new highs since 1929 and held a fair ! amount of gain. Then selling rie- , j veloped in some of the motors, i notably Auburn, in which a special , financing situation developed. Automobile equipment shares were in; demand with many of them rising i to new highs for the year or longer. Toward the end of the week buying became more selective. Rubber tiro shares were given a whirl when leading companies removed discounts set up in a price war. Case led a rise in the farm implements based on outlook for better farm buying. Steels slipped back, although they had several good sessions. Rails got nowhere. Utilities were better on earnings gains. Alcohols were up as the season for use of anti-freeze approached. Liquors made highs on outlook for a big Christmas business. Coppers resumed their rise in a big way, especially on Friday, when reports said Europeans were j heavy buyers. Business news was fairly good, al--1 though it gave a clew to a leveling off that is in process. Railroad car loadings declined to the disappointment of some traders, but a majority had anticipated the letdown because the grain movement is over. Steel operations made a small gain. Electricity output made anew high for all time. Automobile production increased. Call money rose to of 1 per cent and was the first change In a rate of 1 i of 1 per cent that had been in effect since April 18, last. The change did not indicate greater use of funds. It merely represented an attempt of New York bank.-, *o place their funds at a “living wage.” Wall Street anticipated a technical reaction shortly as the motors might meet selling after the New York show opens. They looked for a more selective market for the remainder of the year with traders concentrating on special situations.

FRAZIER-LEMKE INFLATION BILL BEINHPEEDED Measure for Mortgage Refinancing May Be Forced to Early House Vote. Ry I n’trrt Freni* WASHINGTON, Nov. 2 Con- ' gressional supporters of the Frazier- | Lemke farm mortgage refinancing bill predicted today that the battle j for currency inflation would be! fought on that issue next session rather than on the soldiers’ bonus. Democratic and Republican House leaders forecast that the $3,000,000, 000 inflation-refinancing measure would be forced to a House vote shortly after Congress meets. Rep. William Lemke <R., N. D.) has been active for weeks in at- j tempting to line up sufficient votes j to force direct House action. A vote-forcing petition requiring 218 ; signatures now lacks but 11 names. 59,000,000,000 Invoved The Frazier-Lemke bill provides for long-term refinancing of the country’s entire $9,000,000,000 farm mortgage burden through issuance of new currency. Supporters of the plan predict, however, that only $3,000,000,000 in “greenbacks” will be necessary, utilized as a sort cf revolving fund. If the bill is forced to a vote over Administration objections, leaders agree that it will pass the House. Its Senate fate is more doubtful although the election year situation will make it a difficult measure to vote against. More than 30 state Legislatures have memorialized Congress in the last year to act on it. Mobilization Seen With signs pointing to a bonus measure stripped of currency expansion, congressional inflationists are expected to center their fight on the refinancing bill. The American Legion’s failure to back the Patman inflation-bonus bill is expected to swing sufficient support behind the Legion bonus measure to kill off the Patman legislation. The Patman bill passed the House last session but a swing of three votes would have substituted for it the Vinson Legion bill with its lack of inflation tinge. If Frazier-Lemcke bill supporters in the House succeed in getting 11 more Representatives to sign the vote-forcing petition a week after Congress meets, a vote on the measure is automatic on Jan. 13.

National Spending Spree Advocated in New Book as Avenue to Prosperity Teachings of Thrift and Saving Discarded by David Cushman Coyle, Former Official of Public Works Administration. By United Press WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.—A national spending spree was advocated today by David Cushman Coyle, author, lecturer and economist, as a means of attaining permanent prosperity. Teachings of thrift and saving were discarded in his book, “Brass Tacks.” published by the National Home Library. The more we spend the more we ll have, Mr. Coyle contended. “Saving for a rainy day only makes it rain.” is one of the economic theories advanced in the book, which was written while the author was a member of the New Deal Resettlement Board of Review. The adage that “Y’ou can t eat your cake and have it too" is just so much “poppycock” to Coyle. We
can have more only by spending more, he claimed. Resigned Federal Tost Mr. Coyle came to Washington in 1933 as an official of the Public Works Administration. He resigned his government connections a few days before publication of this book. In 1933 he published “The Irrepressible Conflict—Business vs. Finance.” The problem today, he contended in his new book, is one of consumption; and hence of spending—“We have come to a time when the insistent demand is not for capital, nor for labor, but for buyers to carry away the goods.” Technological employment is the only means by which tha millions thrown out of work by mass methods of production can find a place in the new social system, he said. Millions who once worked in production will never see factory or farm jobs again, he added. The 1929 crash and subsequent depression was caused, not by spending and extravagance, Coyle contended, but by putting savings into a “lot of overbuilding and the bankrupt mills and apartment houses that now stand out like a lot of sore thumbs all over the landscape.” Bought Blue Sky “Some of the bankers think the era was an age of thrift. Never before did we save so much, nor buy so much of the blue sky.” Mr. Coyle contended that “if we can increase our rate of spending and cut down the rate of savings, the amount of business failure will be diminished.” He estimated the depression had cost the United States more than $40,000,000,000 a year since 1929. If the government could get us out of the depression and keep us out by spending anywhere up to that amount annually “until doomsday” it would be cheap, Coyle said. Mr. Coyle would have the government raise the billions of dollars are needed for such spending through imposing heavy income taxes. The money would be spent, according to his theory, for “services” rather than on production for consumption efforts. Local Livestock HOGS Oct. Bulk. Top. Receipts. 28.

UNEVEN TREND RULES WHEAT. INTEREST LIGHT Principal Grain Opens Steady but Scattered Selling Causes Dip. By United Press CHICAGO. Nov. 2.—An air of uncertainty prevailed in the wheat pit today as prices continued to fluctuate erratically on the Board of Trade. At the end wheat was ’* cent lower to % cent higher, corn was unchanged to 1 s cent lower, and oats were off % cent. Wheat futures opened steady but scattered selling soon depressed the market. Fair support appeared in the May delivery on the dip. however. and a moderate buying movement got under way to lift the December contract from the day s low levels. Short covering was back of the advance in the nearby months. There was a good demand for December from cash houses. The upturn came in the face of a draggy tone in Winnipeg and all domestic markets. Some local traders continued to prefer a side line course as uncertainty still clouded the Canadian wheat situation. Argentine cables reported continued hot weather, which was regarded as unfavorable for the crop without adequate moisture. Continued cold weather was predicted for the American wheat belt. Corn prices turned lower early, but short I covering and scattered commission house buying brought some recovery from the day’s low points. Part of the early selling was induced by the weekly forecast for cool weather with little precipitation. The lower basis in the cash market also had some effect. Trade in oats was light. Some selling was prompted by the decline in corn prices early, but commission houses absorbed the offerings on resting orders. Rye was unsettled and featureless. Frf* v. Wheat— Hich. Low.
