Less Speculation in Stocks.

"one of the most encouraging fea-
lures of the present situation on a
broad survey is the subsistence of spec
ulative activity in the stock market.
The general list of stocks is lower thar
IT was three months ago. and there
has been a decided decline in the issues
that had previously made the largest
advance. A continuance of the specu-
lative activity which prevailed last
summer and in the early fall would
absorb lending power which could not
be withdrawn without forcing a reces-
sion in the market.
There are other uses in sight for
the country's available credit We
must continue to receive our own Sc
curities from abroad and we must con-
tinue to supply credit to foreign Gus
toners in order to keep our trasie NOV

Money Very Easy.


The February circular OF the Ma
tional City Bank has this to say con-
corning the money market:
Interest rates are still dragging on
the ground, a situation which although
comfortable and pleasing to borrowers
should never be mentioned without a
warning against the dangers which
Turk in easy money when the condi-
tons that make it easy are temporary.
There has been considerable discussion
of late as to what constitutes imitation,
and excessive issues of paper money
are most often mentioned as the most
dangerous form of IL.
The ultimate evil, however, whether
promoted by irredeemable issues of
paper or extraordinary supplies Of gold,
is condition in which a lot of specu-
lative Indebtedness is created which
can only be liquidated by the sale of
property. and the prices Of goods. Sc
curities and other property are lifted
above the normal level at which they
be regularly maintained. Unques-
tiona bly, low interest rates, coincident
al earnings, are conducive of such in
fatiOn.
when money can be borrowed at 3
or per cent and invested in the
stocks of corporations earning several
times those rates or in business extern
siors that promise still more there is
evidently a temptation to use IL, and
the results have been experienced so
often that no apology need be offered
for referring to them. They should be
kept before the public view.
