Banker Clews considers the course of our foreign trade ''the most unsat- isfactory feature of the situation. next to the political outlook, and says:
 Exports continue abnormally low, leaving, owing to large imports. heavy foreign indebtedness which must be settled either by gold exports CT security shipments. As Europe is unwilling to absorb large quantities of the latter, and as conditions are not yet favorable to reduction of our foreign indebtedness it follows that our position in this respect is not a strong one The situation will be fur ther influenced by the approaching maturity of many of the short term loans which Europe took in 1906 and 1907. The only cure for this difficulty in our international trade is lower prices for commodities. It is the high prices of merchandise which have been mainly instrumental in bringing about these abnormal conditions. Our ex- ports of cotton. breadstuffs and meats have been materially diminished by high prices, the same influence having also abnormally stimulated imports. Unless the foreign markets come up to our level in prices, which is not likely, there can be no cure for this diff culty except that, as just said, of lower prices.
 This is a fresh indictment of the high prices brought about by our tar if and trust syftems. Exports de- crease because the foreign markets refuse to pay our prices.
 With regard to the stock market, Mir. Clews says the money market continues easy, and
 The present inclination to give the market a rest will not be harmful, but underlying conditions are sound, and the market is unquestionably ready to respond to any favorable developments In the long run the tendency of values is in the direction of improvement especially with the approach of spring, Accompanied by occasional but not se- rious set5acks.
