TEE BUSINESS PROSPECT.

Business is. with remarkable power
of resistance. adapting itself to condi-
tons unprecedented IL the history of
the world. Never has this country
given more convincing proof of its abil-
ity to meet grave emergencies promptly
and effectively. Already conspicuous
progress has been made in the work of
preventing decentralization in the mar
kets and preserving order and sanity in
all branches OF trade. The government
the clearing houses and the exchanges
have combined to reduce to minimum
the disorders incident TO a world crisis
Of unparalleled dimensions.
So far as this favored country is
concerned. the worst financial stress is
over and the markets are gradually get
ting into position where material ad-
vantage may be derived from the dis
turbance. The interruption to export
trade, due to the situation in foreign ex-
change and the withdrawal of ocean
shipping facilities, is now the chief
cause of trouble, export freights begin
ming TO pile up at shipping centers, but
concerted measures are being taken to
relieve this condition as far as prac-
ticable. The grain markets have natur-
ally been swayed more by the foreign
war news than by the estimates of do
nestic crops.
IL IN 70 10 Dim 0ay ~
from important trade centers. and par
ticularly those in the agricultural dis
tricts, indicate trade conditions as
ready to expand as soon as the present
excitement IS passed; and even as it is
the volume of domestic exchanges is
large, while significant and encourag-
ing incident was the reduction in the
discount rate on Thursday by the Bank
Of England from 10 to per cent and
the Bank of France from Z to per
cent.
In the iron and steel industry, the ad
vance in billets and bars is an outward
sign of improvement, and this better
ment would no doubt be more conspic-
nous but for the international uncer-
tainties.
The railroads have been benefited by
the agreement to arbitrate the western
labor case which has given at least par
| tial relief to railroad capital. by allow
| ing advances to the lines in the cen
trail territory.
The textile trades naturally are held
| in check by the effects Of the Europeor
wars. but when the violence of these
| has passed and more normal conditions
are restored, they should respond to the
new demands inevitably to be created
f! by big crops at home and acute neces-
! sites in other lands.

institutions vary from $500 to $1,000.
University teachers Of subjects for
which there In direct commercial de-
mand outside receive somewhat higher
salaries than those in charge OF the
traditional academic subjects, but the
difference is less than might be eX-
pectsd. The highest average salaries
for full professors are paid in law ana
civil engineering. Law claims the
highest paid professorship in any sub
ject. with one salary of $500; but
there are professors Of physic, geol-
ogy. and Latin who receive $4,000. 1t Is
significant, however, that on the basis
Of the figures reported most college
teaching particularly in the first two
years, is done by men of instructor
grade with salaries of about $1,000 or
$1,000. or by assistants who receive on
the average about $500. usually for
half time services.
Quite as noteworthy is the variation
in salaries for state superintendent OF
public instruction. The salaries Of the
chief school officers in the various
states range from $4,000 il New Jer-
sey and New York; $500 in Illinois;
800 in Massachusetts; and $1,000 in
Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, California,
Indiana, ard Louisiana; down to
81 900 in Delaware, Nebraska and Ne
vada $1,000 in South Carolina; and
$500 in South Dakota.
The report contains detailed COM
parsons. showing the increase in
teachers salaries at different periods.
The figures thus collected Will be util-
lied as the basis for further investiga-
ton by the bureau of education and by
organizations such as the National
Education Association TO determine the
actual conditions OF the teaching pro
fession.

What Will be the Judgment Of the
world upon her act of brigandage
weighs nothing with her against the
supreme object Of military advantage.
A question OF nearer consequence to
her is whether that advantage has not
been too dearly bought since 1t has
swung into line against her the tre-
mendous might of the British empire.
For forty years Germany has been
the exemplar Of a progressive civiliza-
ton. In spite Of her adherence to in
fiated militarism. she has put the whole
world in her debt by her inspiring in
dustrial and scientific achievements.
Her people have taught mankind les
sone of incalculable value, and her sons
have enriched far distant lands with
their genius.
Not the least OF the catastrophies in
flicted by this inhuman war is that
an unbridled autocracy has brought
against the great German empire an
indictment for arrogant assault upon
the peace of nations and the security
