King-Size Tax Worry
For Minnesota Man
Fargo, N.D. IIP) W. E. El
liott of Moorhead, Minn.,
woke up today with a king
sized tax headache.
Elliott wrote a North Dako
ta newspaper he already pays
a Minnesota income tax and,
under a new law, may have
to pay a North Dakota tax.
Besides, he works for a Dela
ware corporation, takes or
ders from a Michigan office,
lives in Minnesota, works in
North Dakota for a firm
which also serves South Da
kota, and gets his pay check
from Wisconsin.
Perhaps, Elliott suggested,
he should quit his job and
seek welfare assistance from
all six states..

Stock Prices G3ip on Wide Swings;
Steadier Market Forecast for 1958
By ELMER C. WALTZER
United Press Financial Editor
New York OP) Stocks de
clined in 1957 for the first
time in four years after a five
month advance that all but at
tained the record high set in
industrial shares on April 6,
1956.
Three wide swings In the
trend of prices recalled, the
1929 boom-bust on a small
scale in volume. Otherwise
the market was a contrast to
1929. This was an adjustment
in an investment market.
Turnover in 1957 about
equaled the 566,284,172 shares
of 1956.
Only 12 per cent of the
shares listed turned over in
contrast with 1929 when 119
per cent of the shares was
traded. Actual 1957 dealings
involved S25 billion and ac
tual losses amounted to around
$3 billion.
But in the process of swing
ing down, then up, then down,
'and finally steadying on a
small recovery, the changes
in valuation of all the near
five-billion listed shares regis
tered fantastic figures.
From January 2 to Feb. 12
values dropped by $20 billion.
Then a rise lasting to July 12,
when the year's highs were
set, carried valuation up by
$32 billion. A precipitate de
cline lasting to Oct. 22, when
the 1957 lows were set, wiped
out $48 billion of values. A
subsequent $12 billion recov
ery left the value of all listed
shares down $24 billion for
the year.
One In Eight Traded
The 1957 decline from the
year's high to the low amount
ed to about 100 points in the
Dow-Jones industrial average
or about 19 per cent. In 1929,
the drop from the high to the
low was 48 per cent.
Average daily trading in
1957 of 2,250,000 shares con
trasted with the 1929 turnover
of 4,276,808 shares daily.
Valuation of all listed
shares at the 1957 high set at
mid-year was around $230 bil
lion against the 1929 top on
Sept. 1 of $89 billion. In 1929
shares listed reached one bil
lion for the first time. In 1957
they approached five billion.
The 1957 turnover of only
12 per cent meant that only
one share out of each eight
listed was traded during the
year. The other seven were
tightly held by investors, big
and little.
If the 1957 market were to
have equaled the 1929 one in
turnover of listed shares, the
daily sales would have had to
run to 22,576,944 shares on
average. That's more than 10
times the 1957 actual trading.
In early 1957, the market
was 'bedeviled by talk of de
pression. Some Washington of
ficials talked of a "hair curl
ing depression" if the budget
weren't cut. And budget cut
ting talk frightened traders as
much as the depression talk
that accompanied it. Tight
money was driving down
bonds and casting a pall over
stocks which also suffered
from the Middle East prob
lems. The result was a decline
in prices.
Pinch Brings Sellin?
Then depression talk sub
sided and inflation seemed to
be having a bigger play.
The market went up stead
ily until TJuly 12 when at its
peak the industrial average
was only 0.28 about a quar
ter point under the all-time
record of 1956.
About that time tight money
was having its effect and ap
parently could no longer be
ignored. Business was slack
ening and its profits were be
ing pinched by high costs
which could not be recouped
in selling prices. This could
and did in some cases mean
lower dividends. Selling set in
and prices fell fast. The de
cline accelerated when Rus
sia put satellites into orbit.
Presiden t 'Eisenhower's
health was a market factor
twice his "stomach ache"
of June 10 and his "mild
QUEEN
stroke" Nov. 26.
Washington revealed the na
ture of the latter 20 minutes
before closing time on Nov.
26 and in that third of an hour
the market turned over at an
hourly rate of three million
shares with prices breaking
sharply mere than" nine
points in the industrial aver
age and values falling by
more than $5 billion. Next
day the market more than
made up its losses but many
investors were hurt.
Right then Wall Street ap
parently concluded that the
President's health henceforth
probably would have less in
fluence than in the past on the
market. It had swayed prices
since the heart attack market
of Sept. 26, 1955, when in
dustrials had their second wid
est drop in history 31.89
points most since the mar
ket of Oct. 28, 1929, when the
drop was 38.93 points.
Nixon Influence Rising
Market experts said that
while the president was very
highly regarded in business
and financial circles, Vice
President Richard Nixon could
be an able successor. As Ger
ald M. Loeb, a senior partner
in the brokerage firm of E.
F. Hutton Co. put it: "The
rising star of Vice President
Nixon will have more and
more influence." .
Late in 1957 the market
was chilled from time to time
by such developments as a
drop below 70 per cent in
steel operations, poor earnings
and lower freight movement
for the railroads, talk of poor
reception for the 1958 auto
models, and a fear that retail
trade might not measure up.
But the market had been
well liquidated. When it hit
the year's lows on Oct. 22
many investors including
some big ones like mutual
funds and institutions con
cluded the selling had been
over done. The industrials had
closed that day at 419.79, a
new low since May 18, 1955
and rails at 107.21, a new low
since June 9, 1954.
On Oct. 23, buying went
wild helped not only by the
belief the market was a bar
gain, but also by a statement
by President Eisenhower
warning against over-pessimism,
and the successful fir
ing of a Jupiter missile which
to some extent offset Russian
propaganda on its missile ex
ploits. The result was that the in
dustrial average soared 17.34
points on Oct. 23, the widest
rise since Nov. 14, 1929 and
the rails, up 5.91 points, had
their best gain since Sept. 22,
1931.
Later the Federal Reserve
System reduced the discount
rate which was seen as the
herald of easier money. Stocks
improved and bonds moved
up sharply with Wall Street
predicting a bull market for
bonds.
Anticipation of easier
money was a major factor in
the outlook for 1958 in the
market. Economists had is
sued some not unfavorable
predictions on industry in the
coming year and Wall Street

breathed easier. But the mar
ket still held some difficulties.
First of all investor confi
dence had been shaken to the
point where it was believed
some time might be required
to restore it. Secondly, there
was no indication a profit
pinch on industry would soon
end and this in turn brought
the belief that dividend pay
ments would be smaller.
Business predictions were
that the first half of 1958
would be marked by further
recession. The economists be
lieved that smaller outlays by
industry for plant expansion
and improvement would be
made up by higher defense
spending and possibly by
some make-work schemes.
An upturn was forecast for
the second half of the year
slow at first and then with a
spurt in the fourth quarter.
Market experts, taking their
cue from this picture saw
some further uncertainties for
the share list earljftn the year,
a steadying in the third quar
ter and a good rise in the final
three months of the year.
They believed the market
would set its lows in the late
winter or early spring and its
highs in the late months of
the year.
Some believed that when
the market finally got into
action on the upside the lead
ership would center on issues
which currently are in -the
least demand. This group in
cluded the steels, rails, chemi
cals, and base metals. Rail
roads were hard hit most of
the time. That group last
about 33 per cent on the year.
Coppers were sold heavily
when the price of copper
dropped on over-production.
Credit never a serious
matter for stocks was a
factor nonetheless since it in
fluenced business and bonds.
The stock market was aided
"by a 70 per cent margin re
quirement which meant that
the decline brought out only
moderate amounts of forced
selling in contrast with 1929
when the speculation of the
time was done on a shoe
string. With credit for stock trad
ing shinking there was talk
that the 70 per cent margin

Ivan Taylor, plant super

Davidson had just finished a

requirement might be reduced
at least to 60 per cent or
even to 50 per cent early in
1958.
Despite this prospect and
the indication that business in
1958 will set a high level
overall, the market still faces
a test of its Oct. 22 lows, ac
cording to the experts. If it
meets that test without setting
new lows a fairly good rally
might come, the experts as
sert.
If, however, the old lows
of around 419 in the indus
trials are broken there is a
chance the market will go
below 400 in that figure. Some
predict a possible 385. Once
having made its test, the mar
ket is expected to level off
and move narrowly with se
lectivity the key note as it
was through 1957. No big rise
is foreseen. Some set the top
for the year at 470 about 50
points under the 1957 high.
Two Killed in Crash

Eugene (IP) Two teen-age

Pushing Forward
On Reclamation
Washington (TP) A Demo
cratic senator warned today
the United States is "rapidly
losing out" to the Communists
in another "vital area" affect
ing national defense water
resources development and
climate control.
Sen. James E. Murray (D-
Mont.) said the Soviets are
putting "more effort and em
phasis" on irrigation, hydro
electric, flood control, and
water transport programs
than they are on missile and
satellite development.
Murray, chairman of the
Senate Interior committee,
said Russia has been announc
ing "fantastic" plans for such
projects to cover vast areas
and for "even changing the
climate of whole provinces."
He called on President Ei
senhower to give the matter
his immediate, personal atten
tion -to prevent the Commu
nist bloc from further "out
stripping" the nation in water
development.
Concern Over Budget
The senator made the state
ment in a new committee re
port to the President compar
ing U. S. progress in the field
of water resource develop
ment with that of Russia and
Communist China.
The report, issued Tuesday
night, was prepared at Mur
ray's request by committee
consultant Michael W. Straus.
It came at a time when Mur
ray and other western legisla
tors were expressing concern
over reports that funds for
reclamation projects will be
cut sharply in the budget for
the 1959 fiscal year.
Straus, reclamation com
missioner under Franklin D.
Roosevelt, said Russia and
