II is a mark of the greatly changed
times that bank presidents and other
men Of note in the financial world are
speaking their minds with entire free
dem. When one Of them sounds a note
Of caution, he is not afraid to give
cbepter and verse Of his reasons. AS a
result Of this. and inevitably Of the
economic Importance OF the war going
on abroad, the country knows more
about financial matters now than It has
known at any time since the days when
specie payments were resumed prop
ably more even than at that time. An
other result is that the stock market
willie still subject 10 sharp declines,
as IL always will be. is no longer TO be
thrown off its balance by every vagrant
rumor. Investment Is coming TO the
fore to meet opportunity. For the first

dors and its investors are reaching out

connection with the big increase IN
gross earnings. that the rate increases
granted by the Interstate Commerce
Commission in 1914 played good part
in the result. The percentage OF re-
turn on property Investment IN the
lines east and west of Pittsburgh was
$50 in 1918, against 4.24 in 1914. To
this will have to be added the income

Security No Less.

Investors have nothing to be troubled
about, because investments are not suf-
fering. If investors are people who buy
incomes and take no thought about tenn
porary quotations for their securities,
they have no cause for worry. Divi-
dends on sound securities are not
threatened except by increases. 1t Is
notorious that railroad and industrial
companies are making money now. as
they never did before. Raw material Is
and other supplies are costing nearly
every corporation more than they did
wear ago, but finished products are be
Ing sold at disproportionately high
prices. Balances available for dividends
show a protection for those dividends
larger, in a great majority Of cases,
than have been known for years. And
higher prices for commodities have as
vet, brought no diminution in demand
for them. On the contrary. every week

Canital After the War.

There has been difference Of opin-
ion. ever since the war began, as to
whether after it ended there would be
higher or lower prices for capital. 1t
was argued yesterday that the decline
in the stock market could hardly repre-
sent resdjustment 10 meet higher
cost for capital at the end Of the war
because it had occurred in the face Of a
continuous advance in the bond market.
D~ead of the income tax might make
rich men buy securities, like the New
York State bonds, TO yield only 3.S5 per
cent. but not If. in their opinion. there
was TO be radical readjustment In the
price Of capital within the next six
months or a year. And the individual g
who are credited with having bought
those bonds are men whose reputation
for foresight is well-nigh world. wide.
For the present, at least, it looks as
though those who believe that peace
will find an abundant supply Of funds
fo- all needs in this country have the
probabilities with them.
