NEW YORK, September 9.—An ir- regular downward trend. characterized the price movement on the Curb Ex- change today. There were few cases of real weakness and a number of stocks, among which various investment trust issues were conspicuous, advanced, but the general list was heavy. Selling. was particularly noticeable in the utility group. There was no change in-the confidence in which these stocks are held over the longer term, but it was felt that the recent advance had been too fast and that temporary 2. reaction at least was due. The excep- Amer Nat Oas. tion was Standard Power & Light Am Pneu which was bid up 5 points or so on the Ebe: Teport that Standard Gas & Electric would make an offer of exchange of stock. This news, however, did not affect Northern States Power A, which ‘was lower, but that issue had gone up nearly 40 points last week. Electric Bond & Share sold off sharply on a large turnover, but this stock, too, had made a new high last ‘week, 50 that profit taking was a rea- sonable explanation for the decline. Electric Investors weakened and so did Associated Gas & Electric. American Gas & Electric lost nearly 5 points. Stocks of investment companies were generally strong. Purther reflection of the disaster to the airplane City of San Francisco was t1 Frul & Sus .. seen in a new low price for Transconti- "'o‘ v%"m"filg;"“ nental Air Transport. Other airplane D ot a et pilak stocks were not materially affected, and Dayton Airplane & Engine went to & new top. ‘The oils were irregular, with strength in Vacuum and a setback in Gulf Oil of Pennsylvania. Humble was lower, but changes were not large in either direction, There is no extensive public interest in the curb oil stocks outside of & few fssues. Among the general industrials to sell off were the h-priced Singer Manu- facturing and Walgreen.

One result of organizing a private investment or trading company has been to simplify this procedure. Customers are privileged to buy stock and the funds are used for trading purposes by the brokerage house. In this way customers profit by the same advice as before without shouldering the task of managing their own funds. I Baltimore Markets I Bpecial Dispatch to The Star.
