LONDON MARKET
FIRM AS RUMORS
OF PEACE GROW
Prices Reflect Optimism
Caused by Hope for
Cessation of War
MONEY MART is FIRM
BY FRANCIS w. H1RST
Editor The Economist. London,
SrecinI CnhIe 10 EreainO Lcdocr

LONDON, March 2S.--The money mar
lxet is firm and under the taX-gatherers'
screw The stock market is curiousy
cheerful.
I judge from an article in last nights
Westminster Gazette and other signs that
official sentiment is gradually being con-
yerted to the possibility of satisfactory
peace settlement in the not far distant
future
There was a hopeful sentence in
Premier Asquth's last speech, but NJ.
Rbot, the French Finance Minister, went
even further on Friday night. for he said
ut is permissible. without boasting,
without Illusion and without vain
optimism. to perceive the end of this hor-
ribe war"
This view has undoubtedly found its
way to the stock exchange A well-known
jobber told me today that honorable peace
was not only desired. but expected and
certainly prices In some markets appear
TO reflect an optimism which expenditure
debt and impending taxation would not
account for.
I hear from neutral visitors that Berlin
is very shabby but stubborn, and Vienna
bright and lively, but tired of war
