MARKET IRREGULAR

YESTERDAY

New York, Dec. 2.

S. C. & F. Dow Jones Summary of yesterday's mark

The market to-day was irregularly Selling pressure was noted in any jower, with trading more active,

of the recent lenders. Traders have now turned their attention to low- priced milroad and railroad-equip- ment issues. Steel shares were strong and active for most of the day, rubber, aviation and mercantile shares declined; motor issues were casier; oil and ully securities were mixed, whlist amusement shares falled to follow the paths of a rise. The market for banda was mixed, whilst stocks on the Curb Exchange were lower.

S. C. & F. New York office cables: Stocks: The market continues to reflect the cautious attitude of gularity is likely. The Department traders. A further period of irre-

of Commerce reports that October exports were 20 per cent above those of September.

Cotton: The market absorbed heavy profit-taking well. There is a growing belief that colton is under-valued

compared with other commodities. There is some talk that the domestic consumption will amount 10 8,000,000 bales. In- terest is now broadening. Out of 11 leading brokers, all

all are bullish. Wheat: Rains in the West have cased July wheat. Other positions have been influenced, but no weak- ness is apparent. Heavy Italian buying may prevent the expected pressure in new-crops in the Argen- tine and Australia. The Govern- ment Bureau, it is reported, is pre- dicting that the current high levels will prevall during the Winter..

Corn: Some selling was reported against purchases of wheat. The current prices are attracting offer- ings from the country,

Rubber: The activity in the market to-day was largely on Trade account. Speculation is retarded by the price ind by the possibility of an increase in quolas.

S. C. & F. Wall Street Journal Morning Comment: A rise in crude oil prices is likely within the next 30 days. A statement issued by the Securities Exchange Commission in- dicates that the Sears, Roebuck Com- pany plans another extra dividend. Condor Interests are growing more cautious with regard to United States' stocks. A bullish sentiment regarding aviation shares is growing Allied Chemical bulls. sull-hope-that- the Company will declare an extra dividend this year. The Anaconda Wire & Cable Company is expected to declare an extra dividend of at least $2.00 per share to-day.

KING GEORGE V

MEMORIAL FUND

A FINAL APPEAL

Christmas is approaching with its numerous cells for generosity, and it' seems desirable to close the King George V. Memorial Fund before it becomes one of too many claims on our charity. I therefore propose to close the subscription lists on Saturday, December 19th, and I ask every citizen of Victoria and Kowloon to put to himself the following questions:

_(1) Have

fully

appreciated.

the nature of the. Memorial, which is that the thank-offerings of those who prospered under the late reign will be devoted to the recreation of poor people in crowded areas; so that Hongkong's monument to: King George will not be a lifeless status of him but a living and permanent realisation of his desire for the health and happiness, of -his-poorest-subjects?-

·(1)

Are the ninety thousand dollars that have already been raised the most that Hongkong can do?,

(3) If not, can I add to the amount, even though my contribution be small?

(4) Or, having already given, can I give more?
