GOSSIP OF THE STREET
BROKERS BELIEVE TIME RIPE
FOR PUBLIC TO COME TO MARKET
t. Express Confidence in a General Advance in
the Price of Securities Gossip of
l the Street
T' UUniJ Is a gcneial foellns' prcvalllnR In the brokers' odlces that tho
time lias mrlvcd for tho public to comb Into the stock market and
I higher prices nro looked tor. "
' Most of the bond houses report a ery satisfactory business, Tho
ease -nlth which a number of largo note Issues hao been absorbed re
cently is a matter of considerable comment and speaks well for tho
prosperous condition of tho country. ,
This applies not only to short-term note Issues, hut also to Ions
ferm bonds, sonic of which have como out within tho last month. Tho
Guaranty Trust Company of New York reports the sale of tho whole
Issue of city of St. l'aul ten-jear water-works refunding 5 per cent
bonds offered to tho' public for the first' tlmo yesterday, whlto tho total
1:5,000,000 Issuo of Procter JL Gamble serial notes were sold l;i about
three days.
There are undefined l uniors of n coming note Issue bv a large local
Industrial plant, but It could not be traced to any reliable source.
licensing of New Capital Issues
There are at lcatt two opinions in 'flninclul elicits In this cltv on
the amendment to tho war-finance Corpoiatlon bill, which would lcae
out tho provision empowering tho enforcement of decisions icgardlng
the licensing of new capital issues. One Is that such a piovlso is unneces
sary under conditions as they elst (it present; that the weight of opinion
on this particular subject li) tho financial world and the pressure which
would bo brought by tho banking interests would in themselves act as
a brake against any unwise flotation of now unnecessary securities to
the embarrassment of tho Government's financing; In short, it is conceded
that In this matter "a gentleman's agreement" actually exists in the
world of fVnancc and that It would bo Just us faithfully ob&cncd whether
this amendment or the original clause would stand.
' Others nro of tho opinion that tho present capital Issues tomnlttce,
with l'aul Warburg at Hh head, hhould bo ictalncd, and ItH powers should
not be transferred to the directors or other olllclals of the proposed vvni
finance corpoiatlon.
On all hands, however. It Is freely admitted that the pcnalt piovl
ion was a mistake In the first place, as It was felt that tho officials of
corporations Issuing securities as well as tho bankers who float them
could be depended upon to comply with the recommendations of tho
committee.
In England, where the contiol over new capital Issues Is altogether
voluntary. It Is talil tho plan works out without tho least friction, and
no doubt tho same result would obtain In tho United Ftate".
Against High-Interest Liberty Bonds
Should the coming Liberty Loan cairy less than 4'j per Lent u gieat
many prophets will be r.adly disappointed. And jet there nro many who
hope that the limit will be 4 per cent. One of these Is the urcildent of tho
Emigrant Industrial Savings Hank of New York, who thinks tho war
taxings stamps are the Ideal .security for tho class of Investors who
deposit In tho sax Ings banks of Jho country. There Is considerably fear
prevailing among tho ofliclals of theso Institutions that a 4 per cent
Liberty Bond wophl cntlco the hinall savers to withdraw their holdings
for tho higher rate and the gi eater sccuilty of a United States Uo em
inent bond.
The president of tho L'mlgi ant lndus.lt lal Savings Uank of Xcw Yoik
' ajs In part: '
'The savings banks of the country repicseut a great min of thrifty
people to whom the war-savings campaign particularly appeals. In the
last 100 jenis they have built up a solid and constantly growing buslrcss
which enlists the savings of 10 000.000 persons at the present time. Tho
total capital represented Is (5,000,000,000.
"Tho bavlngs of this nrmy are rot enough .o pay the cost of tho
war, and In fact they should not be ti'-eil for this purpose. These savings
are already invested In peimanent form. In I'odcral, State and municipal
Improvements, etc. It would seriously disrupt the business of tho nation
to wlthdiaw them at this time. Savings banks will conflno their imme
diate future investments to Government loans. States and municipalities
may limit their borrowings to actual necessities and defer Issuing any largo
block of bonds until tho needs of the Government will have been sntlsfled.
"President Wilson has pointed out repeatcdl) that this Is tho people's
war, and there is no tccllon of the population which will support it with
more energy and lovnlty than the savings bank depositors of the country,
who have learned tho value of thrift through jears of piactlce. Their
savings from now on will be largely Invested In war-savings stnmps, not
only because of their patriotic value, but because of their value as an
Investment,
"War-savings stamps nie the Ideal security for tho small Investor,
They are absolutely safe, having" behind them tho resources of tho nation,
with Its 100,000,000 Inhabitants. They pay u generous rate of Interest,
equal to 4 per cent compounded Quarterly. They can bo turned Into leady
cash. If necessary, at any postofllco on ten dajs' notice, tho holder lecelv
ing what ho paid for them plus ono cent for each elapsed month tlnce
purchase, or about 3 per cent Interest."
Certificates of Indebtedness Issue a Big Success
The heavy oversubscription to tho $300,000,000 4Vi per cent tcitlflcatcs
of Indebtedness, as announced by Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo, has
removed co.nsldci able of tho anxiety of the owners of securities over tho
fear of a depression In prices such as accompanied tho previous Llbeity
loans,
I Virtually evciy I'ederal Itcseive disttlct esceeded its quota, which
hows a distribution so thorough as to Insure that no financial disturb-
1 anco has resulted from the Sccretaij's call for funds mid speaks well
' for the success of tho foi incoming campaign for the third Liberty Loan.
In connection with tho previous loans It will bo remembered that
many holders of good securities who wero anxious to assist the Liberty
Loans disposed of their holdings In such n volume ns seriously to dcpiess
the market. It Is generally understood that the market today has been
to completely liquidated that Investois will shrink from any sacrifices
, and that the success of the coming Liberty campaign will have to depend
largely on new savings.
Attention has been frequently called lecently by bankers and brokers
to tho enormous surpluses being piled up by several largo industrial cor
porations, and it Is hinted that a great deal of these will be invested In
Liberty Loans. 11,1s nlso said that several companies anticipate paving
a part of their dividends in Liberty Bonds. This was also done on an
extensive ecalo by somo of tho war industries at tho tlmo of tho second
Liberty Loan. It Is understood that a number of the big oil corporations
J intend carrying out this Idea, especially those located in Oklahoma, whose
profits have been enormous.
Believes Bull Market Will Continue
J. U. Cope Morton, of Townsend Whclen & Co, Chestnut sticet near
Fifth, who was quoted In this column early In December as expressing
himself very bullish on the condition of the market at that time and
predicted that he could see nothing in tho future to change his opinion,
was asked his present opinion yesterday and replied:
"I was bullish then, I am bullish now and I will continue bullish for
some tlmo to come, ns I bellevo prices of stocks will remain high in
order to create a better feeling for tho next Liberty Bond campaign.
Spirit of Co-operation Visible t
That a .spirit of cooperation is making itself felt In the" treatment
of the publla utility corporations Is becoming apparent ns the exigencies
. of war conditions have to bo met, A representative of Bonbrlght & Co ,
" j Inc., thus comments on this fact:
I ' "The publla utilities nro recognized to bo absolutely essential to the
conduct of the war. During tho last jear tho national Government,
through Its priority coal orders, has taken cognizance of this fact. Tho
State utility commissions have recognized It in their decisions approving
rate increases quite generally throughout the country. Tho corporations
have recognized it by making every effort to Increase their capacity and
Place their entire facilities at the disposal' of the country. The consumers
and customers of public utilities have recognized this situation In agree
ing to pay the Increased rates for these services throughout the country,
and have In many cases furnished capital to provide for the Installation
of service, which expenditures ha'o In the past been borne by tho publfa
utility corporations."

siiould find profit as well as pleasure
hi the formation of a local garden club,
In tho opinion of tpetiallsts of tho United

of experience meetings to tho mutual
advantago of all.
Beginners cap take advantage of the
experience of surcesstul gardeners and
thus obtain much valuable advice they
may net nnd In books or papers on gar
dening. In the present emergency, It Is
pointed out, It Is not only n privilege
but a duty to pass on the results ot gar

may sava another from error or In
crease his chances of success.
Another use of the neighborhood gar
