Sales | | of groceriss, apparel and dry goods, and 'drusg cHain stores wers reported to b2 about 20 per cent largsr than in Auzust of last yeer: those of cendy and sho> | chain stores were 8 and 11 per cent | lprgsr, resnectively, and those of 5-and- | 10-cent chain stores were 3 par ‘cent larger. The reporting chain store comoanies | havs mors storss in operation then a. »ear avd and th> incresse in sales re- fizcts the growth in the number of stores as well as changes in ths volume of trade.

The life insuran~e business is grow- ing mors rapidly than eny other busi- ness in_the country, according to fig- ures submitted by Clinton Gilbert. in- surance stocks cpecialist, ‘which show that the assets of the life -insurance ‘companies ‘are gaining at the T2te of $123,000,000 a month, or. §1,476,000,000 s year. At this rats of grawth it is ectimated that the total admitted assets of life insurance companies of the United States will be equal to.more than $15,800,000,000 by the end of 1928. Growth of the assets of life in- :urance companies is exceeding that of the public’ utilities, the railroads, and even of the automobile companies, which ran only about 5 per cent ahead for the first six months of 1923, com- pared to an Increass of about 11 per cent for the life insurznce companies.

S NEW' YORK, October 2.—Calle® upon to absorb rather heavy liquida- | tion, the main body of stocks worked | lower in today's stock market session. | The downward trend was orderly, how- | ever, and despite the current high level of prices there were no indications that the selling was to gst out of hand and | that the market would experience the wide-open break which the more con- servative element has been anticipating. | Money conditions were more of a fac- | tor in the speculative calculations. The renewal rate on call loans was estab- lished at 8 per cent, as against 7 per cent yesterday and the high of the pre- vious session of 10 per cent for new loans. Banks called loans to the ex- tent of some $20,000,000 in the forenoon and there -were expectations that the rate for additional accommodations | again would work higher. Much attention was directed to fll-l velopments at the meeting of American | bankers in convention at' Philadelphia, inasmuch as the credit situation has been made the keynote. Speculative Wall Street was awaiting the remarks of.Gov. Young of the Federal Reserve. and his attitude in.this respect is ex- ?m"‘ to be ths same as it has been for the past few months. | Strenuous efforts were put forth by powerful pool interests to maintain confidence in Chrysler. The stock again | equaled its previous high record . of 12473, but came off sharply later. Gen- eral ‘Motors, after opening 2. points higher, again was subjected to pro- nounced pressure and broke some 4 points from the early high. At the same time Hudson. Hupp, Packard and Stud-~baker were freely offered. United States Steel opened a half point higher on a block of 2,000 shares at 160. but subsequently dropped bslow the 158 level, while mast of the inde- oendents moved sympathetically. Lud- lum, however, was an exception. When the market for this stock was found bare of offerings the stock wds bid up to a new high around 75. as compared with the previous final of 69%. Mining stocks were subjected to profit taking, but not bofore International Nickel had experienced a run-up of some - 4 points. Anaconda came off sharply. The of's lacked the nscessary sponsorship to encourage renewed pub- lic participation, despite all that has b2en said about improving conditions. Pan American B, Aflantic Refining, Phillips ‘and Sinclair were supplied .at lower levels. There were the usual pool specialties | that continued to work into new high ground. They included Lambert, which at one time was up almost 5 points, and Coty. Inc., which had as its in- centive for the buying ths recapitali- zation announced yesterday. | High-grade dividend-paying rails lost a good deal of their recent buoyancy, but reaction in this quarter was limited. Coincident with the calling of addi- tional loans for a total of $35,000,000 for the day, the money rate was ade vanced to 9 per cent shortly after mid- dzy. Further liquidation was encour- aged and the main body of stocks worked ‘steadily lower, with only spas- modic rallies from the lows. General Motors was selling at its lowest in the afternoon, as were United States Steel and the other prominent industrials | with the exception of American Can. ‘Wright Aeronautical receded sharply from its early high of 168 for a loss of more than 10 points. Montgomery Ward was down some 5 points at in- tervals and the same was true of Radio Corporation. s ——— Open. Hish.' Low. Tidawater Ol 80 2 Tide W Oil pf3) Timkentté) .. Tobae Prod (8).

Theinvestment of $1oo, to the man or woman who has accumulated that amount by careful saving, is as im- portant as is the investment of $100,000 to a person possessed of such a sum. The selection of an invest- fient for either amount, therefore, deserves great care. Equally true, however, is the fact that in these days of intensive com- petition in the business world, most men and women who accumulate money for investment are far too busy to give to investment matters the time and -thought that their impor- tance justifies. If you are possessed of $100,000, you prabably know. that. this . dificulty may be easily overcome. Experience has shown you that a wise choice of securities may be great- ly simplified by enlisting the advice and cooperation of men—such as you will finfcin this organization of kond specialists—whose daily business it is to study securities and security markets, and to sateguard and advanc: the interests of investors. The man or woman with-$100, or with any other sum, will find it both practical and profitable to follow the same sound practice. Write to us, or come to see us, when- ever investment problems arise. We shall be glad to help you. s 8 = T . Iglehart & Co. Investment Bankers 719 FIFTEENTH ST, WASHINGION; D. C. BALTIMORE. MD. WILKES:BARRE, PA. WILMINGYON, DeL. CLARKSBURG, W. VA. RICHMOND, VA.
