Germany's Reply Affected Market In New York
New York July 11 Relations with Germany was the dominant factor in market mood last week as J P Morgan's quick rebound spurred a rally. Disclosures after the attempt on the financier Miz included bomb threats to cargo and early foreign dilution, weighing on sentiment. There was evidence of strong demand for American goods to aid war needs, boosting steel and other industries, while exchange rate weakness hurt American debtors. A French 20 million credit via bank acceptances signaled difficulty in securing more American securities as collateral. British loan results awaited in London, with tax exemptions noted. Crops showed some deterioration from bad weather, and Missouri Pacific reorganization and St Paul dividend changes reflected broader market cooling and investment readjustment.
