CREATE AN OPTIMISTIC FEELING
'IN LOCAL FINANCIAL CIRCLES
Every One Hopes for Quick Action by Congress on
Taxation Program Gossip
of the Street
TpHERE were many onuses for the changed atmosphere In the financial
section during the half session on Saturday as compared with the nlr
of doubt and uncertainty which was slowly gnthcrlnft during the latter
part of last week, and which promised to make the closing hours heavy
&nd dubious
First of all theie was the splendid crop reports from every section
of the country, which gave promise of bumper jleld or at least consld
erably above the ten-ear average Although this crop situation Is seldom
1 spoken of In the brokers offices or the Investment houses In this city
as q contributing factor to the general prosperity. et Its Influence on the
o.uptatlons on the stock market, reaching the whole list as It does In a
powerful but unobtrusive manner. Is possibly the most important factor
In the nation's financial situation. It Is more In evidence and receives
more attention when present conditions are reversed and the prospect of
a bad harvest stares the countrj in the face, something which at this
time would bo a world rather than a national calamity.
Next to the silent Influence of the crop report, the splendid war
news from the European front, where the American armies weie figuring
largely with honor to their countty and credit to themselves, imparted
a most healthy, cheerful and optimistic feeling.
It was generally acknowledged that the taxation program would be
carVled out by Congress In a spirit of fairness: that previous mistakes
xvould be corrected; that the whole matter would be put upon a more
equitable basis; and In view of this and of the splendid earnings shown
by the corporations likely to be most affected, the promised revenue bill
has lost much of its terrors for the Investor nnd speculator. Tho only
question raised in the financial district on this matter is the one of
"How long?" Tha't Is, Is Congress going to spend so much time over
unnecessary debates to delay final action and keep the country and the
Industries guessing what Is going to happen, Instead of getting over the
work speedily and giving those most Interested sufficient time to arrange
their affairs to meet the rcquliements with the least inconvenience.
Advance for Motor Stocks Causes Discussion
The advance In the price of motor stocks on Saturday was the subject
of some discussion in the Street. Some said there was a revival of the
1 plan to form a large consolidation, which has been the Bubject of much
talk in the past but which up to the present has not materlillzed Others
raid that, In view of the fact that the Government had virtually taken
over all the steel, leaving little or none to be divided among the various
Industries, and that announcement had frequently been made as to the
drastic curtailment In the manufacture of automobiles for pleasure, It
was incomprehensible that under such conditions the motor stocks should
move up and that the reason must be found elsewhere
Now It seems there was no serious foundation for the report as to
the cut In the manufacture of pleasuie cars and that the principal Uuto
moblle plants, as well as a number of the laige plants which manufacture
parts In stupendous quantities, had foreseen the possibility of a steel
famine and had stored up enough ahead to keep their plants running
for two or more jears to come It Is possible that this condition, if prac
ticed by other industries icqulring steel In large quantities, has been
accountable for the steel shortage which eventually led the Government
to take the drastic measuies which It did
A good deal of speculative inquiry has been Indulged In In the finan
cial district for the last few das regaidlng United Motors, with the result
that It has been fairl well established that United Motors Is not an
automobile muklng concern and that the companj's business Is made up
of about 60 per cent war orders, that Is, for shells, etc, and 40 per cent
automobile accessories. Hegarding this latter Industry It Is said United
Motors Is doing a large business, as automobile luers are said to be
saving by having their old cars repalied, with the renewal of ccitaln
worn out parts, Instead of bujlng new machines.
r Peace This Summer?
While peace rumors are taboo not onlj In financial quarters, but, it
might be said, everjvvlieie', there was a rumor In circulation, which was
credited by at least one of the best-informed bankers In tho cltj, to tho
effect that peace is certain this summei. It is said this news is based
on good authority, and the Impression was given that the piopowil will
come from the only place from which such a proposition could be con
sidered, namely, behind the lines In Germany. It was hinted that a light
had at last dawned in that quaiter that with the advent of all the power
and resouices of the United States there is no hope for the Central
Empires
Local Opinions
Chandler Brothers &. Co. say: "The low prices prevailing at the close
of last week and the momentary further decline caused bv the advices
of submarine attacks a shoit distance out from tho New Jersey coast
developed a bulng appetite for many stocks, especially In those that
were fortified bj pool activities This buIng ignoted whatever unfavor
able conditions eist and concentrated its energies upon celebrating the
check given German aspirations on the western front for a larger lctory
than at present seems probable "
In Its digest of trade conditions the Franklin National I3ank sajs:
"A comparison of fundamental business conditions today with a jear
ago shows an Increase In bank dealings, Interest payments, money in cir
culation, stock of money In the country, railroad gross earnings, railway
equipment orders, coal and oil production and a most excellent ciop out
look, all of which are favorable factors
'The factois making an unfavoiable showing in the comparison are
decreased dividends, much bmaller building opeiatlons, larger exports of
gold and smaller expoits of merchandise The Increased export of gold
need not necessarily be considered unfavorable, as our gold supply is
ample. The apparent decrease In volume of merchandise exported is
probably more than offset by merchandise sent to France on transports,
which Is not included in the report of exports. On the whole, present busi
ness conditions compare very favorably with a year ago."
Harris, Forbes & Co. are offering $1,260,000 Utlcn Gas and Electric
Company lefundlng and extension mortgage 0 per cent bonds, due 1957,
at S9 and Interest to jleld about 5 76 per cent to the Investor. These
bonds are exempt from New York State, county and municipal personal
property .taxes, and the company pas the present 2 per cent Federal
Income tax deductabie at the source.
Announcement was made on Saturda that the New Yoik, New Haven
and Hartford Railroad Company had made arrangements, with a syndi
cate of bankers for the sale of $4,000,000 6 per cent equipment trust cer
tificates. The bankers included in the group are J. I Morgan & Co ,
Kidder, Peabod & Co. and Lee, Hlgglnson & Co. It Is stated that equip
ment worth about $5,500,000 Is Involved In the transaction. The New
Haven is putting up a margin of 30 per cent in cash, vvheieas In normal
times only. 15 per cent is exacted. It is undeistood that the equipment
trust will be due In semiannual. Installments of ubuut $200,000, the last
block to fall due in ten jears.

Well, that was too much for me Oh,

Business Questions Answered
What advice would jou give In reference

a concern which had Its car In our town
snmM time ato? Tha land Is aold at auction
and these people act as attorney. In buvlnar
land for new resident, but I suppose you are
familiar witn tneir nan i wane io Know u
It Is a .afe Investment for a worklngman
t lmnw nnthlnc about the real estate
concern which jou mention. Of course,
the majority or real eaiaie cunccriis are
reliable. But In bujlng such a long dis

Personallj', I would never buy land
that I hadn t seen unless first of all my
bankers assured me that the concern
Itself was thoroughly reliable Next I
would write to the Department of
Agriculture at Washington to see If tbey
knew anything about the land.
Also I would get my bank to write to a
bank near where the land Is located for
their opinion on It.
Much better lose a good opportunity
than to regret having made a poor bar-
