unusually high margins in the case of
the spectacular industrials. The large
commercial banks have also rigidly
maintained the policy of strict super
vision over the collateral offered for
loans in the stock market and the rap
id unbuilding of the war industrials

Business Conditions.
The cotton report issued by the
Government this week indicates
yield of less than IL 100000 bales, and
shows falling-off of last years pro-
duction. This showing does not cause
the least concern to the South, how
ever, which is more interested in
higher price for cotton than for a
larger yield. The sharp advance in
cotton futures on the New York and
New Orleans exchanges is an evidence
Of the estimate which the market put
upon this showing as a factor in in
creasing the value of the staple. If
the South should look upon this fall
ing-off in probable production of cot
ton as good news, it can consider in
this same connection the fact that the
successful hotation of the Anglo
French loan has at the same time
given added assurance of Europe's
ability to buy here the cotton which it
needs. That same sort of assurance
S given in respect to all of our ex-
portable products and it is not too
much therefore to look upon the
granting of this credit to Grea Bri-
tain and France as the most important
single step which we have yet taken
to insure the foreign trade prosperity
which has come to us through the
conditions brought about by the war.
Financial leaders estimate that dur
ing the coming three months there is
likely to be further enlargement of
investment funds. Action of the var
'ous corporations in declaring special
dividends has, in measure, mode
good the loss represented by the re-
duced dividends announced by those
companies, whose earnings have been
seriously curtailed as result of the
complications growing out of the Eu-
ropean war. Intrinsic conditions are
sound and there is good deal of hon
estly cheerful sentiment about the flu
ture. President Wilson has received
the support of the whole country in
his negotiations with Germany. 1t is
to be hoped that American interven-
ton in Mexico will not become neces-
sary. The bigger problems connected
with the European war and with the
readjustment which must follow the
ending of the war are likely to give
us plenty to do, without starting upon
Mexican campaign, which would be
very difficult to manage. Although
the reassembling of Congress is only
a few weeks off, very little has been
heard of corporation legislation of the
sort which produced such unsettle-
ment two years ago. The country is
paying very little attention to politics.
