their possibility must be recognized
and doubtless they have much to do
with the present cautionary policy of
the reserve board whose control of the
money market is becoming more and
moro complete. Briefly then, any
pronounced enlargement in the de-
mand for loans would be followed by
1irmer rates for money, a fact that
will have to be taken into considera-
ton in all future business transac-
tons.
A Complicated Stock Market.
Stock market probabilities are more
difficult Of measurement than any
other business operations. Eliminate
the war stocks which 1 think have
passed their zenith, and we have left
for consideration the regular indus
trials and railroads. The steel issues
still have a future, though 1917 prof
it's will fall below 1916 Speculation
in coppers has certainly been over
done. In the petroleum Industry there
is rema r1able development in prog
ress because of the automo bile, and
these shares are adGitionallv strength
ened by the hope of a revival in ex-
ports when the war ends. In the
chemical industry there has% been
phenomenal expansion owing toEshut-
ting off German imports; but this is
an infant industry that will probably
be unable to meet foreign Compel
ton without a favOring tariff. If a
movement for higher duties is start
ed in congress, its most plausible ex-
cuse will be found in this direction.
The better outlook for railroads has
already been explained in the early
part of this review. In considering
the capital market it should not be
overlooked that the total new security
issues in the country for the last
twelve months was about $2,lI4,00O,-
900, compared with SLABS, 351 400 in
1915 and S1436,517.90 in 1914 also
that we have absorbed about $4,000
100000 of foreign owned American
securities since the war began, besides
loaning Europe about $1,75o, 100000
These figures display an astounding
ability to supply new capital; an abll-
ity that places us at once in the front
rank as an international monetary
power They will also profoundly at-
feet our foreign exchanges, lessen our
annual payments abroad and go tar
towards changing us from, a debtor
to a creditor nation. Events are COM
pelling us to think and act interna-
tionallv more and more.
