There is much activity in the com
mercial and financial life Of Belgium,
and it appears that preparations arr
being made to meet conditions arising
after the war. Almost every week new
financial plans are published and all
REPORTS agree that the industries o.
the country, in some directions at
least, are showing more animation
than at any time since the German IN
vagion. To-day's "Frankfurter lei
tune" contains two dispatches from
Brussels dealing with such plans. They
read as follows;

issued call for a meeting Of its share
holders FOR the purpose Of discussing
the advisability Of raising the share

AUGUST DIVIDENDS
A LARGE HARVEST
Corporations Have Discussed
SS5,O0O,000 in One Month.

The August dividend harvest, de-
tailed figures Of which are now avail
able. indicates the largest total Of dis
bursements fer that month on record.
The aggregate Of payments to stock
holders in American corporations eX.
ceeded $4,000, 0Oo. compared with ap-
proximately $50, 100000 in August. 1915.
OF this total railroads contributed
more than $35,O0O,00O, compared with
S25. 900 a year ago. and industrial
corporations S45,0O0,OO0, against $780,
100000 year ago. In the eight months
OF the current year ended with August
total dividend disbursements amounted
to S375.OO0,0OO in round numbers, as
against S275 100000 in the correspond
ing period Of last year.
Some OF the largest gains in dividend
payment last month were recorded by
mining companies, thanks to the un-
precedented boom in the metal mar
kets. According to THE Engineering
and Mining Journal twenty-seven of
the leading mining companies in the
United States discussed 81 ,6G2.7 l9. as
compared with S3,637,3S in August,

concerns paid 81 1907 963, as against

1t is inconsistent for those who
adopt distant and disappearing air
toward speculation to argue from
premises which belong only to the
speculator. They set their faces
against the rash exploitation of
Stock Exchange values, and then, If
the market advances against all the
weight of their disapproval, they de-
mand that it shall react for technical
reasons. 1t ought to be a matter of
indifference to them whether the
market is overbought or oversold,
whether it is strong one day or weak
another, whether the bears or the
lulls get caught, but they debate
these points with the acumen of tape
readers. That is because they wish
to be right both in theory and IN
practice.

Paris, Sept. 1.-THE approach of
the new loan, now announced, al
ready has begun to cause relaXa-
ton in speculation. There is a no
ticeable movement toward realizing
on stocks, which have gone up. This
profit is being taken to get money
for the new loan, which already is
assured of great success. No AN
nouncement has been made of the
price Of emission, but the govern
ment has considerable latitude in
that particular since the last loan,
which was put out at 1925 and now
is quoted at 90.
\ now Russian internal loan IS
probable in a short time. The rapid
increase OF bank deposits in Russia
and the abundance Of negotiable Sc
curities precipitatcd plans for an
internal loan before it had been eX-
pected to make one. According TO
the latest news from Petrograd,
plans are now being made for . new
loan on terms similar to the last
Russian war loan.
