F14 7 FULL SEASONAL GAINS FORECAST Pall Upturn in Business Should Be Normal, Econ- omists Assert. BY EDWARD C. STONE. One of the most cheerful business | predictions made during the present | ‘week comes from Boston. | The Fell upturn in business will | peach at least normal proportions, says | the United Business Service. Stocks | of goods in distributors’ hands are at minimum levels, and industrial produc- tion is down to, or below current sonsumption. ‘There is every reason to believe that & considerable number of deals and enterprises of one kind or another are pending, awaiting a more auspiclous moment for their execution. A normal degree of Fall improvement will be the signal for action on many of these, this forecast says: Local bankers today agreed quite generally with this prediction, at least so far as Washington is concerned. Things always improve in the Fall, fol- lowing the hot Summer months, even in times of depression. The big Gov- ernment pay roll and lower prices for 80 many different kinds of goods will | make this possible and probable again this year, bankers said. Forecasts here differ a good deal pegarding the outlook for stocks. It 18 quite generally agreed, however, that sometime during the next six months there will be an advance in the stock market, the extent of the gain de- pending on what busincs: Simi- Jar market predictiors have been made before, but not when general market averages were as low as they are now. Guaranty Trust’s Views. In discussing favorable signs in do- mestic markets, the Guaranty Trust Co. | singles out the activity reported in re- tail trade. While sales, measured in dollar volume, the bank sa: are somewhat smaller than a year ago, the decrease appears to be considerably less than would be expected as & result of | This comparison | the decline in prices. indicates that the physical volume of business has increased and strengthens the view that consumers’ supplies have been depleted to a point where more ltberal buying is necessary, despite the contaglous—and, to a certain extent, unreasonable—habits of extreme econ- omy that have been adopted since the advent of depression. This opinion is further confirmed by the continued recovery reported in cer- tain industri>s turning out consumers goods. The textile industries and the boot and shoe industry are conspicu- ous examples of this improvement. In so far as this interpretation of yecent tendencics is correct, it is reas- onable to conclude that industries sup- plying every-day consumers’ needs will Probably enjoy a higher level of de- mand and that this improvement will gradually work its way back into the earlier stages of the industrial process. The economic readjustments in prices, woges, taxes, production and consumption have obviously not been completed, or even reached a point of stabilization: and yet they present a situation where, if conditions in Europe improve, recovery may begin and con- structive factors prevail. Some seas- onal recovery, at least, may be antici- pated. the bank asserts. Workers Earn $5.134,000,000, The first complete study of employ Government’s Dealing Speclal Dispatch to The Star.

Apprehension entertained in certain quarters over the possibility of further French withdrawals of funds from London is groundless. Of the total French balances held in England and estimated, prior to the crisis, at $750,000,000, between $150,- {000,000 and $175.000,000 have been | withdrawn. Of the remainder, the Bank of France is understood to have | about $400.000,000, while the holdings of the French treasury and the Caisse d’Amortisation (sinking fund bureau) are placed at $100.000,000. leaving pri- | vate holdings at from $75.000,000 to $100.000,000. which is probably the | cording to a statement made by Hubert | However, the business ordi- | roclamation. the part of the Bank of France and French public institutions, but since {such step would be detrimental to | Prance, it seems that all rumors of further withdrawals may safely be dis- regarded. Norway Saves Interest. As a result of a conversion scheme put through by the Norwegian govern- ment, a saving of over 2.200.000 kroner, equl nt _to about $321.600, will be effected. Subscription books will close today for the new 4!; per cent loan offered very largely in Norway, to the amount of 140,000,000 kroner (about $37,500,000) at 973, proceeds to be used to convert the outstanding bal- ances of the 63; per cent loan of 1921 and the 5%s of 1926, called for pay- ment as from October 1. ‘The price of 973 is only fractionally |below the quotation of Norwegian dollar bonds dealt in on the New York Stock Exchange, which would seem to indicate either that American investors | underestimate the credit of the Scan- | dinavian kingdom, or that tte Nor- wegians overrate it. We incline to subscribe to the former view. Many an American investment trust will have good cause for envying a col- league across the Atlantic.

The number of part-time employes is estimated at 799.000. This study of the great mass of data secured by the Bu- | reau of the Census in the first nation- | wide census of distribution also shows | that the total amount paid out dusing | the same period in salaries and wages | to full-time and part-time employes, exclusive of the compensation of pro- prietors or firm members, aggregated $5.134,000,000. The study is based on information obtained in eight representative States | and the District of Columbia, being a summary of 100,000 reports. Buck to Atiend Convention. John N. Buck.

'MARKETS CLOSED FOR 3 DAYS | AFTER WEEK OF SAGGING PRICES ‘Batches of Unfavorable Trade News Both Here and Abroad Reflected in Sharp frade. Quiet Quiet Quiet, Quiet Fair Fair Quiet BY JOHN L. COOLEY, Assoclated Press Pinancial Writer. NEW YORK, September 5.—The financial markets began a three-day | vacation today after a week of declining | prices traceable to industry’s apathy on | the eve of what should normally be a season of improvement. Stocks made something of a fuss over | unfavorable news, being particularly dis- | turbed by the omission of the Lehigh | Valley and J. 1. Case Co. dividends, | few bond interest defaults, the Florida | East Coast and Tri-utilities Corporation receiverships and the slump on the Ber- lin Bourse. None of these happenings was a complete surprise, but taken in conjunction with the discouraging steel reports, the dm;?otnmgly small gain in freight car loadings and unimproved electric power output they aroused bear- | ish sentiment and caused bulls to post- | pone plans for a further rally. Short Position Improved. The market's technical position was improved by an increase in the short | position, which supplies the basis for sharp rallies. Theorists, however, were more interested in the rail stocks’ break | through their June lows. With most of the prominent rails at the lowest | quotations in vears, the question arose as to whether industrials and utilities would follow this decline and likewise penetrate their early Summer mini- | mums.

Second-grade railroad loans, after de- veloping a fair degree of stability, quickly wilted, thereby adding to the perplexities of the current market. Highest-grade issues draw virtually all of the inquiry, meaning that con- fidence is lacking. Oversubscriptions to the Treasury financing, both short and long term, told plainly of the huge accumulation of funds await- ing placement in less conservative and more renumerative investment media when timidity is overcome. _ Bankers are hopeful that conditions | in England and Germany will continue to improve, believing that general eco- nomic recovery awaits a permanent settlement of European problems. The question of reparations and war debts is receiving considerable informal dis- cussion. The National City Bank, in its recent review, said that uncertainty as to what would happen when the year's moratorium expires next July 1 was blighting the world’s business. It expressed the opinion that delay in clearing up this matter might re- sult in a more serious situation than existed last June when President | Hoover proposed a debt holiday. Steel Trade.

Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, September 5.—Though leading economists of the country con- tinue to differ as to the Natfon's exact position today in the business cycle through which it is passing, the ma- Jority of observers whose forecasts in the past have been most accurate are finally in concurrence, according to the current issue of the Business Economic Digest, that substantial im- provement in conditions will be in evidence this Fall. Gage P. Wright, | president of the Digest, epitomized the opinion of this group with this phrase: “Europe or no Europe, business in the United States will gradually rise from bottom levels because our difficulties are mainly economic.” “The politics of Europe, in the opinion of these observers,” the Digest continues, “will have little to do with the progress of economic events in the United States and an upward turn of affairs in the next three months is forecast.” European Status Important. ‘The European situation, on the other hand, is regarded by the opponents of the revival theory as the crux of the whole domestic problem, the follow- school of thought: “We regard the European situation still as the dominant factor, and since it possible at present to make only a conditional forecast of the course of business in the United States during the remainder of the year. If conditions in Europe, and especially Central Europe, presently improve, We may expect a seasonal upturn of business approxi- mating, or even exceeding, the Fall seasonal amount, which would mark ness depression. “If financial unsettlement continues in Europe real business recovery here may be prevented and the present de- that of 1893-1896. adverse European developments business revival which began in the first half of this year would probably be in progress and the present prospect would be for its continuance at a mod- erate pace. But, as things stand, the situaticn is not clear, and . . . busi- {ness conditions in the United States {will in the immediate future be influ- { enced largely by European developments, which cannot be forecast. Weight of Opinion, The significance of these divergent views, Mr. Wright explained, lies not {s0 much in that economists do not |agree, but in the fact that, generally speaking, those chservers who now | hesitate to forecast recovery were | among the more optimistic a year ago, while "those. who now are confident of improvement were, with a few excep- ticns, cautious last year. In other words, when the conflicting opinions are weighed according to |record of past accuracy, the greatest weight of opinion is found to be upon the side of those who look for som If it were not for time, COMMUNION SERVICES PLANNED FOR SUNDAY Rev.
