V Sank reserves, as compared with liabilities, ,re steadily mounting whereas , a year ago they were just as steadily going ton hill. When the reserve ratio gets somewhat higher and when the reduc tion in bank currency ana - DanK loans to been carried far enough to bring these ifems back to a level .that , may lie regarded as conservative,;, then ye may expect to see the UTederal ' Re serve Board lower its scale of diSr rounts and this will be the signal . for a resumption of the decline in interest! r.t fpnprallv. Until this haooena.it! hi probable that many of the old line nvestment issues which have been onKn6wre'gafned all Its loss since mid ;he upgrade since last June, have about bore likely shift to bonds of somewhat inferior rank which still offer, an at Itractively hieh return and to bonds brought out at high rates during the last year which are selling in the Imarket at prices where the yield is Janywhere from six and a half to eight a half per crnt. The chief ob- liEftion to this latter class of securi- ies is that most of them , have only Ira years to run - and- besides have provision whereby .they will be Tradually called in at even" shorter winds. Xaturally the lone ranee In vestor has preferred mortgage issues I'f distant maturity. But these have obtain money; for Wall street use than"1 it was, ror a aownward movement to go very far. It, is simply necessary for stocks to go back enough to reattract investment buying and a good deal has peen accompnsnea tbward V this end witnm the last few rfavs.: It must h remembered that for the 'first time in more man a year speculative pools and syndicates are able "to get funds for thirty and- sixty day periods and are able to borrow- at rates that lo6k low in comparison with the. yijeld of specu iauve stocks which these funds- can oe useci to carry. .This is a great in centive to the ; resumption of snecula. tive. activity in a moderate way' in the shares of companies . which have been through- the worst , of their business slump , and have marked oft their in ventorjr losses. , -; The week's developments in the bu'si ness worw nave been conflicting. On the one . hand boot . and shoe factories ha-re resumed operations at full, scale in consequence of new orders received. On the other; hand the steel companies have been cutting prices in an effort to Obtain new business. It Is interest ing to note that none of the nredlctiona of trouble in the retail trade after the first of the- year - has come true ..and that all the pessimistic talk about forced liquidation and failures which was Indulged in so freely a month ago can now be identified as bearish propa ganda. The business situation at large is developing entirely, as expected..
