Praise. Wilson'S Wisdom

Henry C1ews in his weekly financial
review received here yesterday says:
president Wilson's action ON the
Mexican question in removing the en-
largo would appear to be the best
thing to do under the circumstances.
IL now puts us in line with other great
nations in connection with Mexico and
removes the possibility of Intervention.
1t also confines the fighting within
Mexican borders, as it should be, and
the more desperately they fight the
sooner the trouble will be ended Pres
i6ent Wilson through his achievements
in the short time he has been the
executive of the nation, has made him
self the most influential factor today
in political life in this country; and his
present attitude towards the trusts and
business generally. which places him on
record as a constructionist and not a
destructionist, is certainly a welcome
one, as it will bring back more con-
fidence in business circles which will
lead to increased courage in embark
| ing upon larger business undertakings,
resulting finally in general trade par
| taking of its former activity.
| "The dominating influence in the
security markets today is the world
wide ease of money. For long pc
riod stocks have been unduly depressed
| by abnormally high rates of interest
The sudden and extreme drop in in
terest rates has since the year began
caused a complete change in conditions
affecting investments. Since the pros
poets are for continued ease in money
tie world over for months to come, it
! follows that many good securities
which have been selling on a per
cent basis and higher must show a
gradual increased appreciation.
