Secretary of Commerce Says
No Need to Worry Over
Financial Future
IBy Latest MALL

WASHINGTON. - All information
reaching governmental departments
here indicates that the gloom and de-
preston which overlook business en-
terprise In the United States when
the war storm burst Is slowly draw
ing aside and glimpses Of present and
coming prosperity are visible.
The hopeful outlook for American
ventures was summarized by SecTe-
tary RedfieId In a letter to the Cham
bers Of Commerce of the Unite1
States, in which he declared:
Conditions Here Bright.
! Let the worst be said and admit
ted that can be said respecting exist
ing business difficulties in America,
our condition still remains not only
relatively bright but rapidly improV-
ing and in many respects both pros
percus and promising"
The secretary's letter follows:
"A manufacturer whose plant was
in Liege or Lille would find no strong
ground for cheer In the condition Of
either OF these industrial centers. In
either of these cities financial, eco
nomic. possibly even physical destruC.
ton would threaten his business. One
cannot but sympathize with the mis-
fortunes that have befallen industries
in all the belligerent countries, and
be, therefore, so much more grateful
that no like fate threatens our own.
There Is always room in a Cou1-
try as large as ours, and with such
various conditions as exist in its diff
fereht portions, for the pessimist to
find some hook on which he can hang
his mournful prophecies. One need
not react to the other extreme and
claim that the special prosperity of
one is an indication of equally good
conditions everywhere, The truth
lies between, but no observer of the
large movements in our commerce
today fails to recognize the great i'm
proyement that has been made in
business conditions in the last few
weeks, and which Is still progress
ing. .>-a .,-.-.-s.-s:.

cations is no longer cause for serious

worry, since an import excess OF
s2o, 000, 600 In August has been chang
ed to an export excess Of aDproxi,
mateIy $50, 000. 900 in October. This
favorable process continues, and there
is, every indication that it Is likely to
continue long. The deficit in our
bank reserves In New York. which
was as. low as $4,000, 900 in August,
rose to a surplus reserve early this
month Of nearly $1S,000,000 The
course Of exchange has become more
normal Clearing house certificates
are being retired. Large sums OF en-
Urgency notes have been withdrawn,
and with the opening of the federal
reserve system great additional sup.
plies Of loanabie funds have become
available. There Is no longer serious
concern over our financial future.
One can look back calmly now
to the first weeks of August, whea
there was a wheat embargo which
some feared might mean sad loss to
many Of our farmers. Those same
farmers are prosperous today, for
wheat exports have been unprecedent-
ed in amount and at profitable prices.

IF both, money and crops are in far
better conditions than they were
months ago and IL both are in some
respects in excellent condition the
same is true Of our industries. They
are not all fully occupied, as facts in
the iron and steel trade show, and
there, remains still surplus of idle
cars. One does not hear as much of
the number of cars In use as Is said
of those which are idle and one Won
ders whether the proportion of idle
cars to the total, il 1t were stated

sion from that which Is made by the
present form of statement.
However. he who wants may read
plain facts which show on every side
not only q marked hopeful feeling In
industry, but tangible facts on which
such feeling rests All problems are
not worked out yet to perfect sofu-
ton. That could hardly be with most
of the business and industrial part OF
the world engaged In destroying life
and property on colossal scale
Nevertheless, on many sides mills
are busy and factories running full
time or overtime: the number of un'
employed is steadily getting less. The
coming winter throws no such dark
shadow before as was feared q few
weeks ago. and the statement Is be.
ginning to be heard here and there
that goods cannot be delivered as
promptly as they are wanted because
the factories are too busy.
The world abroad, both that part
Of it which is in arms and that which
is at peace, is turning toward Amer
lea for a large portion of its supplies.
and the phrase, Buy II in America,
has come to have a potency that has
hitherto been lacking.
The improvement in conditions,
however, is not wholly due to the war.
Great and growing as our exports
are, they form but a small portion OF
all of the total business that is going
on and which is constantly increas-
ing. A knowledge that products can
be sold, the certainty that money can
be had to finance business and enter
prise; these and facts like these have
brought fresh confidence into our do
nestle markets at the same time that
foreign buyers hayA entered them.
I'VE may be grateful, therefore, In
a sense both calm and confident, not
only that we are far better of than
are our suffering brethren beyond the
sea, but that We are better placed
ourselves at home than we were a
few weeks since. We may be glad
that the present Is good, thankful
that It is growing better and hopeful
for the coming months"
