U. S. STEEL IN PARIS.
An Expert Explains Why It Has Not
Yet Been Listed There.

| Clarence w. Barren, editor and own
er of the Boston News Bureau. who
is regarded as one of the best posted
| experts in the country in financial
matters, has just returned from a triI
abroad. In an interview, in which he
discussed the proposed listing of Unit
ell States Steel common on the Paris
Bourse, he said:
There seems to be misconception
regarding the attitude of France to-
ward the listing of Steel on the Paris
Bourse. AS a matter of fact, it was
not Steel common that was to be
listed in Paris. 1t was bankers or
trust companies certificates repre-.
senting one-fifth of the Steel common
listed in Paris because the entire is.
sue of Steel common was not pre-
scented for listing. These bankers
certificates, which it was the object
of Mr.. Morgan and his colleagues to
list on the Paris Bourse, could not
even be called Steel common be-
cause it might have become possible
at some time (by great stretch of
imagination) to list that security.
"The question was simply one of
complying with the rules of the
French Office of Finance, and these
rules were in no wise complied with in
the proposed listing by Mr. Morgan.
He undertook to do in his usual way
in one week what in other cases it
has taken a year or more to accomp-
fish in the matter of getting Ameri-
can securities listed on the Paris
Bourse.
Take, for instance. the matter of
United States Rubber. 1t took about
year to accomplish the privilege of
trading in the securities of that COM
pany OH the French Exchange. AS
much consideration as was given by
the French Financial Ministers to the
matter of the proposed listing of Steel
common would not have been possible
without the weight of Mr.. Morgan's
name. But even the great strength
that that name implies was not suffi-
cient to overcome the legal and other
difficulties. There is the matter of
taxation, which also had to be consid-
cred. There is per cent income
tax and two other French taxes,
amounting in all to nearly IL per cent
which would have had to be paid for
at least one year in advance on the
entire issue which it would be pro-
posed to list. Who was going to pay
this tax? Certainly not Mr. Morgan
ard his friends, These and other legal
difficulties were not given sufficient
consideration here before the PROPOSE
ton to list the one-fifth of the Steel
common issue was made to France.
"Emphatically, no, l do not believe
that Mr.. Hartman had anything what
ever TO do with the refusal of the
French Minister of Finance to accept
Mr. Morgan's proposition. 1t is true
that few days before Mr.. Morgan
made his application Mr.. Hartman

Baccalaureate Sermon Delivered to
Howard University Students.

Continuing the annual commencement
ceremonies at Howard University, the
baccalaureate sermon was preached yes
terday afternoon at o'clock In Rankin
Memorial Hall by DR.. w. P. Thirkield,
president of the university.
The students assembled in the main hall
of the university, under the direction OF
Dr. w. v. Tunnelle, and marched to the
chapel, led by the choir. Prayer was
offered by DR.. George 0. Little and a
liberal collection was taken for the Col
ored Social Settlement House, which is In
charge of Miss Florence Bibb, grad
uate of the university.
DIR. Thirkield took as the text for his
sermon Luke, x:27-''Thou shalt love the
Lord, thy God, and thy neighbor as thy
self" 1t was plea for the service of
humanity. under the inspiration of the
love of God.
DIR. Thirkield said that love is the basis
of all moral excellence and is the highest
quality of the moral life. God above all
is a holy loving will. The center of per-
sonality is the will The basis of holy
life is not mere emotion and sentiment,
but unity with the ethical will of God

Addressing the class he said:
Great problems await you. We are not
here required to solve problems We are
here to do our duty-to serve our genera
tion-to do justly. love mercy and walk
humbly with our God. Jesus was the
great problem solver. He does it not by
proposing patent nostrums for present
ills. He did it first by His life of love, gen.
tleness and sacrifice. and then He set
great principles in motion and let them
work their way into the thought and con-
science of mankind, He forgot self. He
gave His life. Keep ever in thought our
