Trading at no time reached active Propomom ast hour's selling of stocks Mon- had reverberations in todav's in- vestment market, particularly in the speculative groups, but after the open- ing accumulation of orders had been satisfled and stocks also firmed, bonds recovered their opening losses and in many cases went to small nst advances. | Tie junior Bond Market has for days | Am T&% P cxhibited a tendency to await further | 4™ T A improvement in business before push-[AM Wat Wks ing ahead.

In a free :.arket the bonds were par bid, 100'¢ esked, shortly after the of- fering, which was at par. The Cana- dian government has shortly to meei & $40,000,000 maiurity here, and the ad- ditional $20,000,000 was needed to meet bank loans. The report to short-term financing was regarded as natural in the circumstances, as there is every reason to believe that the Canadian dollar will return to par in the year ahead.

BY CHAS. P. SHAEFFER, Associated Press Business Writer. Government financing is expected to reach a new peacetime peak during the next 15 months. While is is nothing short of conjec- tural to estimate at this time the prob- able extent of loans which will be sought, obligations which will fall due and pledges for funds which have been many millions of dolla.s. A total of $3,746,365,000 in Govern- ment securities is scheduled to fall duz for payment during the next calendar yeas, consisting of $600,446.000 in nrctes, $2,497,852,000 in certificates of indebt- edness, and $648,067,000 in bills. In ad- dition, there is $8,201,314,000 in bonds which may be called duriag that time, although this possibility is extremely remote. The Reconstruction Finance Corpor- ation is entitled to $2.500,000,000, which it has not yet called in. Financial experts of the Government, speaking privately, except the need for Federal relief ol the icle next year, will b2 many times more than the $300.- 000,000 provided in the relief act. Some sources place the estimated need at as | high us $1,000.000,000. Returns to the Government thus far made in the present fiscal year indi- cate the budget lacks substantially of being balanced. While the new taxes have yet to show their full yield, it is believed that many millions of dollars will have to be called for by the Gov- ernment to meet the deficiency between now and the first of next July. The budget on September 23 was out of bal- ance to the extent of $392,000,000. ‘The railroads loom as another possible drain on Government funds during the next 15 months if receiverships are to b2 averted. The carriers on their pres- ent scale of income are earning only about 25 per cent of fixed charges, while refunding operations of the roads in 1933 will amount to roughly $500.000,000. It is believed in Washington that pos- sibly a major portion cf this new money will be supplied through the medium of public funds. New York Cotton Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK.

September 27.—Down- turns in grain values took place early today as a result of scattered selling | which found the market without ag- gressive support. Corn touched a new bottem price record for the season. Opening 1423 lower, wheat contin- ued to s2g. Corn also started laay off and later held near the initial limits. Bears in the grain pits emphasized the setbacks of securities and of cotton that preceded weakness cf cereals. Ad- verse action of sterling exchange was also an unsettling influence. Besides, Wet weather conditions cver domestic ‘Winter wheat territory were construed as likewise against the buying side of wheat.

Strength of American Gas & Electric followed publication of earnings of $2.69 a share for the 12 months ended August 31, against $4.01 a share in the previous year. Lefcourt Realty Corporation common and preferred stocks in recent sessions had forecast the omission of dividend action today. Creole Petroleum was & trifie more active following Venezuelan advices stating that August oll output of 1,092,616 barrels contrasted with 698,396 in the same month a year ago. Red metal shares remained singularly unaffected by the news. Copper range reported 1,000,000-pound monthly pro- duction and thdt it had marketed 10,- 000,000 pounds of copper, but none of this yeer's metal production thus far has been zold. United Verde extension mining sold 3,000,000 pounds of to a Prench fabricator, but neither item nor reported big purchases by elec- trical equipment manufacturers had any effect on copper issues. Newmont Mining, whose portfolio consists chiefly of oil and mining shares, felt the reaction of both groups in the first few hours of trading. Aluminum Co of America was inclined to move up- during this period. Safety Car Hemn. & Lighting retraced a portion of the ground yielded Monday. Reduction of ogmune prices by Standard Oil of Ohlo was regarded as just another bit of evidence of & gen- erally weakened price structure in the trade, so the stock did not turn active on the announcement. Pipe lines lagged. Typical of the movement in food shares in the early afternoon was the decline of Grezt Atlantic & Pacific Tea. Swift International and Swift & Co. eased. Rallway Light & Securities was up & couple of points, but other invest- ment trusts were without much change, with dealings in them few and far be- tween. American Cynamid B firmed somewhat. Deere & Co. receded with wheat quotations. PARIS BOURSE PRICES. PARIS, September 27 (#).—Three per cent rentes, 83 francs 90 centimes.
