20 * STOCKS GO LOWER INTRADING TODAY Campaign for-Rise Fails and Decline Is Decidedly Sharp. BY STUART P. WEST. Special Dispasch to The Star. NEW YORK, July 20.—Prices went lower on the Stock Exchange today with one or two periods of consider- able weakness. Efforts to attract the public by concentrated buying of stocks like United States Steel and General Motors, with some dozen or more specialties thrown in, had falled. This should have been realized more fully than it was in the last week's trading, but yesterday the hesitation became pronounced, and to- day, in the last half of the session especially, what little campaign for the rise there had been collapsed. The decline in the afternoon was the sharpest that has been seen in some time. Unusual activity continued in Ana- conda, which went through 50. It was quite a leader. North American among the public utilities at one stage was up nearly 2 points, and Montana Power, Consolidated Gas of New York and Public Service of New Jersey were higher. But in the later deal- ings the public utility stocks went pretty much with the rest. Oil shares were decidedly weak. Pan-American B broke quite sharply. Marland was pressed for sale and Union Oil of California was off over 2 points. Texas Company was heavily sold around 521;, as against its re- cent high of 5514. Everything appeared to hinge on whether or not recent buying oper- ations in various selected stocks had culminated, at leagt for the time be- ing. United Stat: Steel common, which had rallied toward vesterday's close, came down very easily. This was disconcerting to those who had been thinking of last week's trading in terms of a “big bull mar- ket.” So was the drop in General Motors. Independent steel shares came down with U. S. Steel. The fluctuations in the motor group were very indecisive. Hudson Motor, act- ing as an offset to the reaction in General Motors, opened up 2 points and went 2 points higher before the rise was checked. Further selling occurred in Jordan Motor, which carried the stock off a point before it rallied. Profit-tak- ing appeared in Mack Trucks and Nash Motors selling ex-dividend was lower. On the other hand, Chrysler did_somewhat better and the gains in Dodge Brothers issues were well maintained. « Equipment shares were in demand eagain for a time, especially Baldwin Locomotive, jumping ahead over 2 points. American Locomotive went up a point and there were small gains in Pullman and General Railway Signal. | One of the noticeable features of the day was the sharp drop In some of the industrials of the specialty grade. Lorillard sold off sharply; so did International Combustion and Engineering. ~ Abrupt reactions oc- ourred in higher-priced issues such 88 Famous Players, General Electric and Woolworth.

BY GEORGE T. HUGH Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, , July bonds again attracted the most 20.—Foreign at- _|tention in today’s market. French issues opened lower at ap- proximately yesterday’s low, losing all the recovery that occurred late ves- terday afternoon. At the same time there seemed to be good support at the decline. Apparently the buying is based on the idea that French ex- ternal dollar loans will be the obli- gation of a country reorganized some- what after the fashion in Germany once the franc has gone tthe way of the mark. French 7s at 89l were down % of a point, but still more than 3 points above the low of the year, established in March. The loss in French 7%s and. French 85 wa about the same. In contrast with the situation the French list GeMnan 7s at 105 equaled the .previous record hizh. The only other fenture in the foreign group was a new high for Queens land 7s, which, as an enti callable issue selling on a be 5.50 basis, were evidently out of line The general list continued heav. and dull. Only new offerings seeme: to be in good demand. Declines in more speculati bonds followed the teend in stocks and the losses in the higher-grade issues were egplainable by the firmer tone in time money. Rock Island refunding 4s dipped b low 90 again, more than 2 points down from the high of April. The loss was all the more noticeable be- cause of the bonds' short term. Ar- mour of Delaware 5%s were frac- tionally lower, while United States Government obligations were steady. in Pure O1l (1) Radto Corpof A.

The junior trusts aggregate £950.0060.

As the plans now stand the building will be 14 stories high., The Fox Theater Corporation has already signed a contract for a 35-year lease for the theater which is to cecupy the lower interior. The estimated cost is $11.000,000; the architects are C. W. and G. L. Rapp of Chicago; and the builders he George A. Fuller Co. The building now is well under way. Credit At New High Level. The Federal Reserve Board reports that the credit of member banks in- creased in volume in June to a new level. The expansion no . by an increase in Federal Reserve bank credit in use b inflow of gold from abroad and the fact that there was little change in the demand for currency were at tributed as reasons for the Reserve of member h: s also were reported at a new high level, these increases occurring, however, outside of New York Cit where a slight decline was shown This decline was said to have resulte: from a reduction in loans on security, while commercial loans increased in volume, their growth being accom panied by a high level of industrial activities. Urges Bankers to Aid Credit Move. Solution of the great credit problem n connection with the distribution of motor cars can come only when com- plete co-ordination between banker, dealer, finance company, factory and other fmportant elements has been achieved, in the opinion of Osear Cool- fcan, president of the Packard Wash- ington Motor Co. Secretary Hoover has called many conferences on stand- ardization of parts, he says, and the result has been waste elimination and better production methods. Mechan ically the automotive industry is now as perfect as engineering genius can make it, but some permanent institu- tion devoted to the subject of credit would be productive of far-reaching and happy results. It is time for progressive actfon, he believes. 51 New Firms in One County. The Miami Better Business Bu as been in receipt of inquiries concerning stock in recently organize mortgage companies.
