tor in business and finance than for many weeks. Peace rumors persist, the Allies however still maintain un- willingness to consider any proposals at this time. Peace is of course draw ing nearer, but is not yet in sight. Meanwhile, many of the industries af fected on this side are beginning to adjust themselves to prospective changes and the muniton or war shares in some instances are already discounting peace. American rail- roads have benefited little by the war and can consequently lose little by peace. The pressure of foreign holdings would probably cease how ever before peace arrived, and in this respect American railroad shares would be strengthened by peace de- ve1opments. An enormous quantity of foreign holdings has been absorbed by Am erican investors, some estimates being over a billion; and the British Government through it's agents has very skillfully avoided demoralizing the American market. Of late gold has been coming freely from the Bank of England deposits in Canada, in part settlement of our foreign trade balance, and more is expected to ar rive. Great Britain continues to fin ance the war with relative ease con- sidering the stupendous character of the undertaking, and it is noticeable that the government proposes to is- sue three and fve-year Exchequer bonds instead of a new war loan.
 For the next few weeks the presi- dential election promises to assume it's proper place in public attention, pro- vided nothing serious enough to over shadow it occurs in the European war zone. Both conventions occur in June, and the country will soon ne re- 1ieved of all doubts as to both men and issues of the coming campaign Fortunately there are no domestic is- sues of an unusually exciting nature l unless it. be that of preparedness | concerning which the country seems | to be settling down to sane and sober views.
 At the moment there is nothing on which to base any vigorous, large buy ing movements. Our present pros- perity has been considerably discount ed, the advance in the stock market last week was conspicuouslv met by profit taking. Tn trade reactionary movements are gaining in force, and CHeSe I1uSI to some extent aneCt the security markets. The war, the presi- dential campaign, trade and crop con- ditions combined have created a series of cross currents on which it Is inn possible to expect any continued up- ward movement. They may induce activity and frequent fluctuations, but no general maintained advance until the war and home political conditions become more satisfactory. The mar ket really has been strong only in spots.

LEAGUE ID MOULD
 OPINION OF PUBLIC
Plan to Enforce Peace to Be Urged Everywhere

Washington, May 27-In every state, county and city in the United States branches of the League to En- force Peace must be organized to create public sentiment favorable to this country's joining a federation of nations to minimize future wars, speakers asserted today at the leagues meeting
 Strong public opinion is necessary for success of the plan, J. Mott Hal lowell of Boston explained, first because probably no national admin lstration would venture to bind the United States to such a radical step unless this step were endorsed and understood by the people; second because if any administration should so pledge the faith of our country and should afterWard be called upon to make good it's word, the ability to do so would depend on the strength of the public opinion endorsing the pledge"
 Officers of the league planned to solicit S300,00O with which to carry on the campaign.
 Philip H. Gadsden of Charleston, $. C., explained that the organization of the league effected at Philadelphia a year ago, provided for creation of a branch in each state, with a chair man, secretary. treasurer, assistants and an executive committee to direct T7le work At the proper time com uaittee of the league will seek to in stitute similar movements in other countries.
