 May Loan Roads Money

WASHI NCTTON, Dec. 4.-Ihe statement that the government might guarantee loans to railroads to tide them over the war period, made on opening day of congress by Repre- sentative Wm. C. .Adamson, chairman of the l. (. C., is accepted here as indication that the government is pre- pairing to loan money to the carriers instead of guaranteeing loans. It is asserted here that any rate increase will be held up by the l. C. C. until congress has thoroughly discussed the loan proposition, but even if a rate increase were granted at once, the relief would not save great many roads from the necessity of borrow ing money for immediate needs, ere ated by wartime conditions Adam sons significant statement is proof that the administration financial ad- visors are now prepared to urge out right government loans to industry that is playing one of the biggest roles in Americas prosecution of the war.
 Copper Outlook Good
 Trading interest is being revived in the Copper group by the fact that dividend meetings are at hand. No bullish out-givings are noted, how ever, but there is a feeling that now coal prices have been advanced the figures fixed on copper will be raised next year.
 Well informed financial interests say there will be no more serious la Dor troubles until after the war. They regard this as settled fact and one which they say should not trouble the stock market in the meantime. A slowly improving stock market with creeping upward tendencies in spe- cialties is expected in active circles. perhaps accelerated towards the end of the year by window dressing"
