has long been foreseen that the indus

in that direction geographically and
that with added industries that part
Of the city would grow at phenom-

being realized in the erection of new
homes for present and prospective
residents. The residences in process
OF construction and in prospect are
modern in every particular and win
compare favorabiy with Ike buildings
in other parts of the city. During the
past year also many old buildings
have been reconstructed and equipped
with modern improvements. In no

In form, there had been no act since
1890 which had suppressed internal
competition.
The lower court was not convinced
by this reasoning II held that the
transfer OF the nineteen corporations
to the New Jersey company made i:
less likely that competition would
break out thereafter Therefore ii
must be taken as a combination In re-
straint OF trade. The defendants were
entoined from engaging in interstate
commerce until the discontinuance OF
the operation of the illegal combina-
ton, but that was suspended pending
the appeal to the Supreme court.
Now the order becomes operative,
and the question is, What will the
Standard Oil company do about it2
Doubtless it has looked upon an ad-
verse decision as among the posi-
bilities and has made preparations to
meet 1t. 1t may not really need the
time which the court has allowed 1t
to obey the dissolution order Doubt
as to the action of the court being

BAD ECONOMICS STILL AT WORK.
Labor and Prices Too High, Leading
Financlers ThInk-considers Stan.
dard OH and Tobacco Decisions Of
Secondary Importance.

National American: One Of the
shrewdest financiers in the country
and a director of several of the largest
industrial corporations and greatest
railroads, in discussing the present
business situation said on Friday that
he believed that the country would
have to go through further extensive
economic readjustment in the direc-
ton of lower labor and lower prices
before upward progress could be re-
sumed
There is a great deal OF talk about
the effect of the Standard Oil and
American Tobacco decisions. he re-
marked. Il do not consider them very
important from business point of
view. They may have a temporary
sentimental effect on business and on
the stock market. but they will not
change economic conditions in this
country. I'VE have been going through
a process of readjnstment for some
time now and this process will con-
tinue- So far, it has been a readjust-
ment of prices, but before we get
through it will be readjustment OF
labor and of the economic habits Of
the individual. In studying business
conditions, watch out to see whether
our market is cheap one to buy in
compared with foreign markets II
1t isn't cheap, business will be dull.
That is the trouble now Our prices
are still too high.
In the past ten years we have been
busy building great factories and mills
to produce more goods. We have got
this work done now, but we haven't
got any market for what we can pro-
duce. We don't sell cheap enough.
Furthermore. we haven't directed our
energies altogether in the right direc-
ton. We boast of our great crops,
cotton for instance, but we send cot
ton abroad and then buy it back at
a higher price after it has been made
into cloth and dresses. It is ridicu-
lous that we should be importing cot
ton goods into this country. We
should refine our own raw products
here and sell them abroad, instead of
letting the foreigners do it for us and
buying the products back from them
I'VE have lately begun to realize the
greater needs of foreign market and
have been going out for the business.
but, as | have said, our prices will
have to come down II We are going
to create demand commensurate with
our CAPACITY for production. But II is
hard to bring prices down, because
the price Of labor is SO high. The
time for a reduction in labor may not
be upon US just yet, but 1t is bound
to come. Dull business means labor
out of employment and that means in
turn that labor will soon be offered
cheaper.
I'VE have already begun to econo-
mize personally, but that. too. will go
on further 1t will be hard to do it,
for we have all been living in sky

IOWA BANKS IN COOP sHApe

State Auditor Bleakly is quoted as
saving that never before in the HIS
tory OF Iowa have the state and saw
ings banks been In such excellent 1,
nancial condition as az the presen,
time There has not been a single
bank failure among the banks sub
tect TO state Inspection Tor more than
three years and not q dollar lost BIZ
the Gepositors in these banks during
that time. He attributes this to more
rigid inspection and more careful su-
perFision OF the banks than formerly
and 10 improvement in the system OF
making reports There has been
steady Improvement in this direction
and the banking department has a
larger force 10 handle the work than
eFer before. The state now REQUIRES
ire reports annually from the banks
orga nized under state law. the same
as is required for the national banks.
An effort has been made to require
that the state banks shall not place
all their reserve in national banks.
but give preference to state banks.
and this has been helpful TO the
banks of smaller size.
In the same connection it is stated
that new phase of publicity is af-
forded Indirectly in new law lust
in force in regard to the manner of
taxation OF bank stock. The law re-
quires that each bank must file with
the county complete list of ali
stockholders. with the amount Of
their holdings and the value thereo.
as the basis of assessment, for the
STOCK is assessed to each individual
owner through the bank. This applies
TO banks of all kinds. As a result the
banks are filing their reports for
assessment and these go on fiis.
where they are public. and the news
papers are getting these reports. and
as a matter Of news publishing com
plete lists of bank stockholders with
their holdings. While this was not the
primary purpose Of the new law it is
having the effect of giving a grea.
deal OF publicity TO the~owners OF the
banks and fixing the responsibility
for bank management in the minds OF
the patrons.
