There appear to be several developments
phanlng themselves at Washington
which may hasten the day of business
recovery, together with those which are
already known."
Hani to Oct A following
Apparently, those responsible for re
cent bullish demonstration in Stude
baker are experiencing quite a little
difficult' in attracting u following
Every time the issue crones SO there
is cvtdentlv n surplus amount of stock
efferrd, which prevents the lnue from
l.olillng its gains at nround thnt leve'.
It is intimated that a certain croup
has been playing the stock on the long
side with the view of unloading hold
ings acquired several tioluto lower on
the break several weeks ago. but as
there is no particular interest in the
Mock it failed to respond to the vari
ous bullish arguments advanced rela

Copper Statistics
Copper statistics made public by the
ideological Miirvej nave nitnti-ivu l
siderahle interest, speclnllv in connec
tion with stocks on hand. It was shown
that the surplus of refined copper on
Jnnuary 1 last, was nuotit oou.uvu.uuu
pounds, and of blister and material in
process of refining nbout 403,000,000
pounds, or a total of 1.121.000.000
pounds. Pioductlon last year was given
as 1 .SOO'.OOO.OOO pounds.
When it was stated early In the year
that the actual stock of copper In this
country was in excess of 1.000.000.000
pounds, some authorities vigorously in
sisted that the totHl mentioned was
much too high. However, the Govern
ment statistics must be taken as official,
and from there It appears certain that
there, is not likely to be any attempt to
resume operations by the big properties
In the near future.
The ciinsiiinptlnn of copper last year,
aceordlns to the Geological Survey, wan
1.0.14.000.000 pounds In the United
Stilton, an the oirtilus nn hand at the
beginning of the car was in excess of
last venr's ronsu motion. Then astaln
the stocks were added to during the
early months of the year when the big
properties were still producing.
Lower Excliango Rates Expect cl
Poreien exchanee eiDcrts SBT that it
now looks as If our low rates on sterling
will come earlier than usual this year,
because of the many factors operating
which have a distinct Influence over
the exchange Ituation.
For jiiFtnnce. the coal strike in Eng
land, which lias paralyzed hor indiw
tries, will take u long time to come back
to mrmal conditions, particularly us
t-nm of the mines are reported a hav
ing been completely destroyed. Usu
ally tbe low rate for sterling exchange
here nrc experienced lu the fall, but
these unusual conditions which have
developed within the last six months
bare entire'; changed the general situ
ation. Some exchange expert are now pre
dicting that sterling exchange this year
will sell below ."..50. Wlillo rallies may
lake place from time to time, the gen
eral expectation in thnt lower raUs will
obtain later on.
Railroad Bonds in Uetter Position
Bond men who follow the invest
ment situation with care express the
opinion that there will develop an ex
i client rail market before tbe end of
the current calendar year. They would
rot be surprised if a moderate reaction
took nlnce. nosslblv in Aucust. but be
ginning with September there should
be an nll-around Improvement In this
respect. They point out that the rails
hivo not yet reflected the betterments
which are expected to accrue from tbe
proposed railroad legislation funding
plan, which, it is Hoped, win oe maoa
effective before long.
While there may be uncertainties In
connection with this proposed legisla
tion, it is evident to any one familiar
with the railroad situation that there
must be substantial relief from some
source far the carriers If they are to
continue as liquid- corporate organiza
tions. As a matter of fact, some bank
ers, as well as some of the leading
compllshed
Brokers' Opinions
Ncwburger, Henderson A Loch
"The colorless nnd uninteresting day-to-day
movements are absolutely out
of alignment with the constructive
forces in the making. It would seem
almost futile to discuss values ant,'
earnings In a market tinder the com
plete domfnatlon of tho professional
traders, but on closer study there are
found numerous encouraging signs In
the general situation, which plainly
forecast better conditions before au
tumn The most hopeful sign Is the
earnest effort and determination of the
Administration nt Washington to find
ways nnd means of bringing Immediate
relief to general business. President
Harding's emphatic stand In asserting
the necessity for a prompt revision of
taxes, refunding of debt and adjustment
of foreign loans confirms our belief that
the first signal of a return In general
conditions would come from Washing
ton. Tills belief is further strength
ened In the railroad funding plan,
which apparently is receiving earnest
consideration on the part of the Onb
inet members. Developments In the
industrial situation continue rather dis
couraging, but there seems to be no
substantial ground for much of the
Irresponsible talk concerning many of
these shares."

good inquiry 1b i sported for all better
