Stock
Minimizes
Drop Harm
'The recent scare in the business
world caused by the fall of stock
values on the New York stock ex-
change has affected a relatively!
small number of persons," said
Prof. Robert G. Rodkey, of the
school of business administration
yesterday. "The stock values mere-
ly reflect business conditions in-
stead of governing them, and per-
haps not over 500,000 persons, less
than one half per cent of the
population of the United States,!
have been affected by late condi-
tions."
The fall of the market was given
great publicity throughout the na-
tion in newspapers. Professor Rod-
key intimated that it was due per-
haps to the present slump of ac-
tivity in the largest industries of
the country. "Notably the automo-
tive manufacturers have been doing
practically nothing in the line of
production during thepast few
months," Professor Rodkey con-
cluded.
