The odd-lot buyers have already arrived. They are the advance guard in every public movement. Wall street is ready. Never before in the history of the world has the investor end speculator been compelled to take into account so many factors in addition to property value. This is a superlative statement that sounds trite, but it is a true one that cannot be emphasized too much. If mere property value were the only factor one could go to Wall street and blindly buy the first stock priced on the ticker tape. Even a rn tionrnilQ a. 111VOU \CUUipuuiVO tuuc nt V uvt ?VMW W bout new bond issues and reorganizations and possible receiverships are rich in physicial assets. Factors Tat Count That is why/ Poland, the pound sterling, the rising crude oil surplus, the credit congestion and the lack of transportation drive prices of stock so far from what their balance sheets say they are really worth. Brit those who expect an immediate advance of prices to follow the Polish victories fail to give the otheX, factors due weight. The managers of corporations are thinking a great deal more just now of how to get back to a sound basis of business than they are of the current profits. They realize that the people are watching them. Even the government of the United States is checking its wild orgy of spending. Very few persons have saved anything of their great war profits and earnings, and they are now looking excitedly to the stock markets as a pos sible source of fresh supplies of easy money. The actual speculation has not begun, but the atmosphere is surcharged with it. The odd-lot buying the last week has been of phenomenal size. It has absorbed all the specula' tire short selling. That means that the i i , 3 ESS?

Just as soon as the banks get the credit situation cleared up a bit more the doors will bo opened and cheap money will be the signal for a speculative Jamboree such as the country has seldom witnessed. Hard Times Coming The world is entering a period of hard times. Everybody realizes the fact that everybody wants one more whirl at the stock market?just one. The market may easily go lower, | for it usually hits positively new lowsj with a smash before turning upward for a long swing as is in contemplation. But once the upward swing ;is pronounced the gains are fast and the traders who buy just before the .final break are usually most fortunate. ? That is why so many experienced speculators and investors are buying now, although they talk and expect] lower prices before they see big prof-i its in their long stock. The surface j .conditions all Indicate a declining! I market, but when they indicate a risJ ing one the stocks will be scarce. The bankers who have taken advantage of the credit condition to force ,the liquidation /Of gilt-edged investments that they have themselves in many cases bought with the very; money they forced the unfortunate sellers to repay to the bank have no notion of taking small profits? for they, too, believe this is going to be the last speculative opportunity before the hard times come. France will have to pay pawn broker rates for her new loan in the United States, pcean rates, will drop, prices of commodities will collapse, brokerage concerns that have bucketed their customers' stocks will fall, some banks will be placed in the hands of receivers, along with,their profiteering customers who dragged them down ? both victims of the same greed?and the railroads will borrow : untold milliQns of money. But the 'stock market has forecast most of !thls and in the big jamboree it will jbe the one cheerful place where the .public can come and be persuaded : that things are not so bed as they appear.
