NEW TYORK, August 26.—Quoted values in the bond and stock markets rose to new high levels for the year this week In the face of decidedly bearish news developments. These included the failure of the anthracite coal and rail strike conferences and the inability of | the reparations commission to rea | agreement with the German gov = ment. \‘ . Trading in the stock and bond mar- kets was on a more extensive scale| than at any time in two months, mil- | lion-share days coming back Into the| market for the first time since the lat- ter part of June. The underlying strength of the market refiected the | financlal community’s belief that there is little likelihood of further serous in- U. S.

Wall | street construed the increase as an in- dication that a shortage of day labor was threatened. and that the heads of the steel industry were confident that the fall demand would' permit it to d pose of its products at profitable prices. The trend in most commodity prices is upward, but bumper crops will in all probability result in a continuance of relatively cheap grain prices.
