I selected railroad-, ten representative public utilities and ten lending industrials from the year 1907 to September, 1017. TT IS generally acknowledged that tho lltictuatlons of tlie prices of bonds over a number of years rIvo a bettor Idea of tbo liaIn values underlying railroads, public utilities and Industrials tliuu tho llucttiatious of the stock market, innlnlj ftir the reason that the element of speculation is so far removed from bond dealing n3 to bo negligible An Interesting chart showing tho fluctuations In tho prices of tho bondi of ten elccted railroads, ten repiesentatlvo public utilities ami ten uclt-knowu Industrials in tho period covered between January, ISO", the year of the panic, till September 28, 1917. has been prepared by II. Kvnn Taylor, of the Investment Iteglstry of America, in the Morris Hulldlng. Chestnut Mrcet near Fifteenth. II 1110 prices luiiKu iruiii 1., me mw avcratio tor tno len itiiuistriais III iUi, in iu-i, the highest acrnge for the ten railroads In 1309. This chart shows that railroad bonds which started In 1907 at 102, tho highest average of the three classes of bonds under consideration, experienced violent downward fluctuations to on nvrrage of 90 In 1907 and 93 In 1908, reached their highest average of 104 In 1909, and since then liao been subject to a gradual variable decline each year till, on September 28, 1917, they have reached the lowest average price of ST., and stand lower than either public utilities or Industrials. Railroads In the hands of receivers or showing results of bad management weio eliminated. Thn ten selected Industrials which stalled In 1907 with an acrago price of 93 and violently dropped in that panic year to their lowest average of 73 reached an average of 91 through a sudden rex ivnl In business ln 1908, only to fall to 72 before ths closo of that year. Since then, with the exception of a sudden decline to S2 In the latter part of 1911, thete has been an almost unlfotm vailation In the nvcrago prices till, at the present time, their average price of 92 places these ten selected industrials higher than cither the railroads or the public utilities. Of the three classes of bonds considered, the public utilities have lemalncd ttcadlest keeping a mlddln course between the aerago price of railroad bonds and the average price of Industrials. They begin In 1907 at an average of 96 and end In September, 1917, at 90. This chart confirms tho general impression formed by brokers and Investors as to the present popular demand for llrst-clasT Industilal bonds ln preference tu rails. It also confirms the fact that public utilities, on account of their steadiness, are a prime favorite with the Investor. Slump in Values After War Not Regarded as Probable There has been u good deal of discussion over the prospects of securities of various kinds In the I'nlted States suffering a slump In the event of tho war m tlnuing for more than a year, nnd those who maintain that there will be such a slump point to conditions In Great Ilrltaln as proof of their contentions, pointing out that lome standard British securities have fallen oft In price as much as 25 per cent. Tho financial and economic conditions of the two countries iro so entirely different as to ptcclude any satisfactory comparison bearing on this Issue. ' In tho llrst place, Great Ilrltaln Is using her finances to assist her allies In Europe in a manner altogether different from the way the I'nlted States Is Accomplishing that work. Then Great Ilrltaln is not a self-contained nation llko the I'nlted States; she must Import enormous quantities of food, ammunition and ether war appliances, while her export trade must have suffered very severely. On the other hand, the United States Is assisting the Allies through loans' mado on a .satisfactory basis, and which are to be the foundation of a future world trnde. The I'nlted States la not only supplying everything she needs In food, clothing, ammunition and every description of war material, but is also shipping enormous quantities of these to the Allies, to be paid for out of the gold she Is loaning to the Allies. This money Is nil being spent here. In England such is not tho case. There is not the least reason for a slump in security values ln the L'nlted Stntes should the war continue, and if it should end ln a vear or so, securities should tako a bound. Germans Evidently Unloading Securities Speaking of tho continued liquidation ln railroad securities, a prominent uptown broker said yesterday that he believed It was owing to a largo quantity of German owned holdings being thrown on the market on account of tho developments under tho tradlng-wlth-the-enemy act. He said ho based his conclusions on the fact that the heaviest liquidation was ln the shares of threo principal roads In which It Is generally known that Germans had largo holdings, namely, the Canadian-Pacific, the Union l'aclflc and tho Pennsylvania. At the breaking out of the war it was discovered that tho Germans had enormous holdings In the Canadian l'aclflc, he said, in fact, about the ratio of 4 to 1, and Immediately they began to unload. , Now, ho continued, that a commissioner has been appointed to segregate German- owned property and hold it in escrow, as it were, there are, no doubt, many Germans debating whether they will convert their holdings Into cash and avoid questions ns to values, or allow their bankers to convert them Into Liberty Bonds. It Is a trait of the Germans, he said, and, perhaps, of all foreigners, when they buy securities ln the United States, to leave the.-o securities in the custody of their bankers here, instead of having them shipped to their home banks, and unquestionably such bankers as uhn, Loeb & Co. and kadenburg, Thalmmi & Co. hold enormous blocks of securities belonging to Germans at home. Private Trading in First Issue of Liberty Bonds There Is a great deal of private trading and dealing in the first Liberty 3V4 per cents in the brokers' offices all over the city, notwithstanding tho fact that subscrip tions aro also flowing in for tho new 4s. Up to the close of the market yesterday none of the latter had been offered for aalo In this city, although $100,000 had been sold at par on the New York curb on the previous day. Tho Curb Association mado a ruling Instructing the curb market to make no sales of United States Government 4 per cent bonds of 1917 prior to October 29 unless the seller is in actual possession of the bonds and delivery is mado in tho regular way on the following day. This will prevent speculation ln future contracts In the bonds such as occurred In the first Liberty Loan before It was regularly dealt In on tho Stock Exchange. ' i Argues for Increase William Av Day, president of the Equltablo Life Assurance Society, has taken up the fight for tho railroads In an appeal for immedlato rate increases in a statement ntltled "The Railroad Situation a National Peril," In which ho says: "If it Is a wiso policy as a war measure for out; Government to set advanced prices, of 100 per cent for staple commodities and to give financial aid to contractors 'hose services aid ln prosecuting the war; If it Is right for tho Government to loan money to Russia, Belgium, Serbia and other unfortunate nations to bring early victory In tho war, surely1 It cannot be wrong for the Government to give prompt nnd effective relief in the form of rate advances to the organizations which aro oper ating their own basic lines of communication to the batllcfront." Railroad properties and their earning Rapacity, Mr. Day says, constitute tho security behind nearly 12,500,000,000 of the savings of about 40,000,000 people held by avlnga banks and life lnsuranco companies. These citizens, he adds, who own or haro in tho ownership of railroad stocks and bonds are Just as much entitled to a reasonable return on their Investments au the bhlpper is to his reasonable profits and the wage-earner' to his reasonable wage. Liberty Loan Maximum Likely to Re Exceeded Every Indication points to an oversubscription of the maximumamount for the Liberty Loan, and thus will the people of tho United States answer the German loan challenge by a handsome -margin. At present it would seem that the sepond Liberty Loan will exceed the third British loan of January last, which came close to, $5,000,000,000 In new money, and which up to now is the most gigantic accomplishment of any nation since the war 1 tarted. In making comparisons, however. It Was Issued as 5 per cent taxablo and 4 Peculiar lleht nn the mental attitude of krtth this loan to find that pf the J5.000.000.000 subscribed, only 1110,000.000 wan for tax-frco 4s, While met of France's, flnsncln has 5h adv.nwt? aU afa-Mf rrpwlng. htr ereaW P loan Wm th 5n. brtt0tt- te Mvar, uossip oi tne Street llu-tuatinn in tho nrr of th i,,,,i in Railroad Rates must be borne In mind that the British loan per cent tax-free bonds, ond it throws a the bulk of British investors In connection been carried orrby the titoncH aovmmnt lUfc VM ? m WW.
