Are Stocks Too High?
Babson See Mora Bull Market
New York City, Dec. 1
(Special Correspondence) I am
still bullish. - Although the
stock market may have a break
to correct technical conditions,
a believe that it will be some
time before the current bull
market collapses. There are
many reasons for this:
1. The tremendous backlog of
unfilled orders
2. The tax reductions for
1S46
3. The very low interest
rates, which mean that
even at present stock
prices one may secure
with safety a better inter
est return than from banks
or bonds.
4. The scarcity of good stocks.
There are today fewer
stocks listed on the New
York Stock Exchange than
here were five years ago;
with five times as much
Idle money awaiting in

destroy or prevent them.
Besides, merchandise
atorlts and leisure stock
should benefit from all
warn Increases.
6. The fact that stocks are
mostly owned outriRht and
thnt total stock exchange
transactions are today
only 6 of national in

reason is because of the one
chjnce In ten of a severe break
In the market. This might give
such extraordinary opportuni
ties for re-investment that it is
always advisable to keep a cer
tain amount of cosh on hand
for this "ono in ten" chance'
As an Illustration of whnt I
have In mind, let me refer to an
Investment List recently issued
by a very hlgh-grado Stock Ex

today sell at an average price
of $55.50 and give an average
yield of 3.65. Yet these 3amc
stocks sold at an average of
only $5.00 In 1032.
The above docs not mean
that in - the next bear market
these eight "high-grade" stocks
will reach their 1032 lows, but

More Inflation
Is Only Choice
It is nonsense to attempt to
prevent either price increases or
labor increases. Inflation has
followed every great war. There
L no other way of paying for
such a war. We must take our
choice between more inflation
or government repudiation. I
have been warning readers of
this for the past five years.
Those who took my advice arc
sitting pretty today.
There are two things that can
happen in the present situation:
(' Unreasonably high prices and
profits which will result in in
creased employrrent; (2) Unreas
onably lower prices and high
wages which will result in
much unemployment. Neither of
these will win out, but, there
will be a general compromise
by both groups yielding some
thing. This compromise may
not suit onybody, but it should
result in higher stock prices. On
the other hand, i Is well to keep
some funds liquid in case one
chance out of ten something
unexpected should happen.
Business Nose-Dive
Signal To Get Out
This column has always been
successful In advising when to
get into the stock market. As
to getting out, it is always more
difficult. Preceding 1929 there
were many danger signals, but
there were almost none preced
ing the decline in 1937. Cer
tainly, conditions ore very much
better today than in 1929 or
1937 when business was uncer
tain and when 80 of
the stocks were held on bor
rowed money.
Yet both of these bull .nar
kcts 1920 and 1937 were fol
lowed by a nose dive in gen
eral business; certainly, this is
not in evidence at the moment
Furthermore, money rates were
high in those days, while they
today are very low with no im-
mcdinte chance of their going
higher. The only fly in the oint
ment at present Is in connection
with labor strikes; and I have
never known anyone to make
money by selling stocks during
labor troubles.
Hence, my personal conclu
sion is that both the labor lead
ers and Mr. Bowles will re
treat from their present abso
lutely unreasonable stands. If
so, much more prosperity sure
ly Is ahead and the stock market
Is not too high. Moreover.
only by such a compromise will
much unemploym ent be
avoided.

it is to be a hotel, restaurant,
etc., and then agnin that it will
be a woodshed. So It has been
decided by some that it most
likely will be a dog house.

PEGGY JOYCE TO
1RCH 10 ALTAR
FOR FIFTH TIE
New York, Dec. 1 (U.R)
Peggy Hopkins Joyce, the for
mer Ziegfeld Follies showgirl,
society matron and countess,
will be wed for the fifth time
early this week to Anthony Eas
ton, a British-born consulting
engineer from the west coast,
the New York Daily Mirror said
tonight.
They will be married In New
York at a civil ceremony in the
chambers of a supreme court
Justice, the Mirror said.
Easton, who has been living
with his mother in Westwood,
Calif., a suburb of Beverly Hills,
is a naturalized American citi
zen who has been working as a
chief engineer on aircraft test
ing equipment during the war.
Easton met Peggy at a dinner
party in New York last June.
He was divorced in Reno two
weeks ago, the Mirror said.
The matrimonial ventures of
Peggy Hopkins Joyce are almost
as well known as those of an
other New Yorker Tommy
Mnnville.
The daughter of a barber,
born in a small Virginia town
an unknown number of years
ago, the dazzling blonde was
first married in 1910 to Everett
Archer, a Denver millionaire.
She divorced him six months
later.
Three years later she eloped
with a wealthy lawyer, Sher
burne Phillbrick Hopkins, Jr.,
who established her in Wash
ington society. He objected to
her aspirations to appear on the
stage, so she left him and went
to New York where she rose to
fame in the Ziegficld Follies.
J. Stanley Joyce, a millionaire
lumberman, was her third hus
band. He persuaded her to give
up the stage, divorce Hopkins
and marry him. But Hopkins
started the divorce proceedings
and was given the decree in
1920. Peggy was married to
Joyce two days later.
But after a six-months honey
moon in Paris, they became
estranged and she shortly was a
free woman again.
For four years Peggy stayed
single, but in June 1924, while
appearing in Earl Carroll's Vani
ties, she succumbed to the
charms of Count Gosta Morner,
an Americanized member of the
Swedish nobility. They lived to
gether for only two months and,
In 1926, were divorced by a
Paris court. For the past 19
years, she has been single.
Dried Eggs Seen
Help To Cooking
Lincoln, Neb. (U.R) Note
from the things-to-come depart
ment: dried eggs soon will be
used extensively in this coun
try. Reports from agricultural
marketing specialists indicate
home-makers testing the eggs
have used them with success in
baking and cooking. The dried
eggs never will take the place
of shell eggs, but they have
some advantages, according to
the specialists.
However, the experts are cer
tain that anyone who has had
a son, husband or friend over
seas will have difficulty getting
the dried product into the
house.
Siamese Porkers

Beatrice, Neb. (U.R) Siamese
twin pigs are being studied by
Beatrice veterinarians and farm
ers.
The twin porkers were Joined
at the shoulders, and shared the
same head, which contained a
double tongue and two sets of
normal teeth. Below the shoul
ders, the, animals were equally
sized, normal and well propor

The twins were born In a lit

San Francisco, Dec. 1 (U.R)
U. S. vessels must be sailed for
commercial purposes to "pro
tect American trade and com
merce," the war shipping ad
ministration said tonight in ans
wer to national maritime union
charges that ships capable of
carrying troops are being used
for cargo and civilian passenger
service.
Commander W. C. Peet, Paci
fic coast director of the WSA,
replied to charges made by the
International Longshoremen's
and Warehousemen's union,
which will lead four other CIO
maritime unions in a nation
wide 24 hour work stoppage
Monday In protest against delays
in returning veterans from over
seas. The ILWU today asserted that
the SS Mormactern, which re
cently returned 400 troops from
the Pacific, sailed this morning
from San Francisco with com
mercial cargo and passengers
for Argentina, despite a WSA
statement that "no ships capable
of carrying troops have been
diverted to commercial pur
poses." Peet said the Mormac
tern had proved "unsuitable"
for troop-carrying.
Meanwhile, following a hear
ing of waterfront employers and
union officials before Prof.
Stuart Daggett, arbitrator under
the Pacific coast longshoremen
agreement, Daggett announced
that the threatened "stop-work"
demonstration would constitute
a violation of the coastwise
agreement between the union
and employers.
Daggett's decision pointed out
that he has no injunctive power
and can issue no rule or order
with respect to future action by
the ILWU.
Union officials contended that
the arbitrator had no authority
to render a decision before any
possible violation of the contract
could occur, but Daggett's state
ment said he "feels that some
expression of opinion is called
for."
Daggett's decision was an
nounced 24 hours after Vice
Adm. Emory S. Land, war ship
ping administrator, wired Harry
Bridges, president of the ILWU,
charging that the union's "ill
conceived propaganda tends pri
marily toward discouraging, dis
illusioning and demoralizing
men and women of our armed
forces depending on water trans
portation homeward."
Peet told the United Press
that "foreign flags already are
flying in the foreign runs and
we've got to protect American
trade and commerce."

DELEGATES VIEW
London, Dec. 1 (U.R) United
Nations delegates listened today
to hours of American travel
ogues and speeches and looked
at motion pictures and brochures
designed to persuade them that
the organization's permanent
home should be in an American
city or area.
Delegations from eight of the
23 American two Canadian areas
seeking the permanent site of
UNO presented their cases in
person. They were from Atlan
tic City, N. J., the Black Hills of
Nebraska and South Dakota and
Wyoming; Boston; Chicago; San
Francisco; Denver; Newport, R.
I., and Philadelphia.
While the preparatory com
mission's sub-committee on the
site was hearing the evidence,
it was reported that strong Rus
sian support was being given a
proposal to locate the world or
ganization in the vicinity of
New York City.
The United Press learned from
a well-informed source that the
Russians were favoring location
of a site on the east coast of the
United States preferably near
New York. The source discussed
the possibility of Hyde Park, N.
Y., which has had the serious
consideration of many delegates
in view of its association with
the late President Roosevelt.

The effectiveness of the gad
