RICHMOND TRADE REPORT

Bradstrcets tomorrow will say for
Richmond and vicinity:
Business on the whole is very salts
factory and SO far in excess OF volume
over the same period Of last year that
II might we'll be termed good The
principal handicap now is the scarcity
Of some materials. rendering prompt
deliveries impossible The lumber in
dustry is much improved. and as the
season advances, building operations
show large increase. Local railroad
reports show a good increase in earn
inCs. but there is still lack Of cars
with which to handle some commodi-
'ties promptly. Labor is generally en-
Dloyed. and with the exception of n
few isolated cases. there are no strikes
in this vicinity. The demand for farm
labor Is particularly noticeable. Crops
are generally in fair condition. though
not we'll advanced because Of the late
season and dry weather, the fruit crop
was slightly damaged In some quar-
ters by late frost. Manufacturers OF
trunks and bags report active order
ing. Paper manufacturers report good
sales and prices very much advanced
because of the scarcity of necessary
materials. Drugs, chemicals paints
and oils are in good demand. The loose
leaf tobacco markets have closed, and
prices during the closing weeks Of the
season were Well maintained There
is apparently little diminution in the
output of munitions of war by local
plants. and much labor is still en-
ployed by them. Johbers OF seasonable
merchandise report fair sales. and cx-
pcct good Immediate shipment bust
ness. as retailers generally have bought
very conscrvatively. The latest bank
statements show very heavy deposits
and the financial condition is good
The local Federal reserve bank shows
the highest percentage of net earnings
OF any bank In the system Retail
trade is fair. Collections are generally
good. Commercial failures in this dis
trict show 4 decrease in comparison
with the same period OF last year.

Dear Ned

Dear Ned
have just come from the office of
the Farm Loan Board. My old friend
w. w. Flanagan is Secretary of the
crat. He is an experienced banker,
and was at one time President of the
Southern Bank of New York City. He
is recognized authority on financial
economics. He was telling me today
that he had just been offered the
Presidency of 100000 bank, to
be organized under the joint stock
plan of this new Democratic law. He
said they offered him higher salary
than what he was getting as the Sec
rotary of the Farm Loan Board, but
that he had refused to consider it,
In the first place he regretted that
the law authorized joint stock banks
at all, >for their existence and their
offering in the financial market their
own bonds, based upon farm mort
cages, in competition with the bonds
which the Federal Land Banks will
offer, based upon cooperation mort
cages, will make rival bonds of the
same kind. Mr.. Flannagan's judg-
ment is that they will force the rate
of interest on both kinds of bonds
up about one per cent. Now, as there
is in existence about $4,000,000 90 a
year. The rate of interest on the
mortgage will always be regulated by
the rate of interest on the bonds, yet
there are some who think that the
Democrats were very ingenious to
put in this rival system, even if it
does cost the farmers s40,00O,000
extra. What is $40,000,0O0 any
how to Democratic administration,
which in one single session OF Con-
gress appropriates more than billion
dollars in excess of its own estimate
of receipts?
Well, / started to tell you about Mr..
Flanagan and the offer of the Presi-
dency of the IS 100000 bank, which
he refused. He said he asked the
parties il they had their 100000
all subscribed yet. They answered,
that they were organizing a force of
statesmen to sell the stock of the bank
to farmers at $500 a share, although
its par value is 500. They said that
they were going to sell it to farpsrs,
who are not familiar with stick, at
5000. by explaining that afr paying
the trifiing cost of ore-hizing the
bank, the extra $10ea share will
form a surplus az. make strong
bank. Confide- ALLY. they told Mr.,
FIannaean Eat the promoters were
going to axe $50 a share for their
ewn nit on selling the stock 80
~, e. sanizing this one bank, thu, pro-
oters expect to fleece the farmers
,ut OF $l,25O,000 and th~.t is only
he beginning.
they will have a g..eat army of
'tock statesmen to solicit subscriptions

states, and the farmer who wants to
borrow from. the Joint Stock Bank

IOWA BOYS TO
To
STAY ON BORDER

> Cay o4~.Ls.. T" euas, -..s :
notice from Adjt Gen. H., p. Mccall,
of Washington, that the Iowa troops
will be kept on the border as long as
the present unsettled conditions there
exist.
The message came in response to
an effort made by the governor sew
eral days ago to get the Iowa troops
home in the near future.
In his letter to the war department
Gov. Clarke said it had been rumored
that the Iowa troops were to be re-
turned, and if there was any proba-
bility of this he wished to suggest
that they be allowed to come back
before election day. He said the peo-
pie left that the soldiers should have
the right of franchise and unless
there was need for them on the bor-
der he urged their return.
Adjt. Gen. Mccall declared that the
selection of the troops TO relieve is
left to Gen. Funston, "who is on the
ground and knows best which troops
ought to be returned" He added:
THE department would not be in a
position to make such a Judgment
