Eastman, Dillon a Co. in writing on
The effect of the war on railroad securi-
ties say in part: "One OF the factors
which. in our opinion. gives the railroads
a decided advantage during this war
period is that they will not be affected
by the proposed large taxes. The taxa
tion programme includes the levying of
a 1s per cent. excess profits tax on COM
panies whose earnings exceed per cent
on capital investment. There is hardly
a road In the country that earns per
cent on capital investment. For the
year ended June 80, 1916. which was the
most prosperous in American railroad
history. only $50 per cent. was earned
on all railroad capital. The active par
ticipation Of this country in the war is
hound to be reflected in an even larger
production Of materials of all kinds than
we have had in the past two and one
half years There Is no question that
our mines. mills and factories will he

increased quantities of goods to be

fear on that score during the continu-
ance OF the war at least. The dcluge OF
selling OF railroad securities by Euro

has come TO an end because OF our
declaration Of war. IT IL no longer
necessary for the allied Governments to
sell our securities In order to raise funds

chases on this side. With the above

necessary passenger service and the sub
stitution of freight service. with prob

Gold for Japan.

Although more gold will be shipped
from the United States TO Japan. the
total amount. according to International
bankers will not be important In com
parlson with our power to attract fur
ther large supplies OF the metal from
Europe and the amount now held in this
country. which is about one third of the
gold holdings Of the entire world. The
balance Of trade between the United
States and Japan is in favor of the lat
ter. but II IL the belief of many bankers
that the outward movement OF gold is
not wholly due u trade conditions and
that although the shipments have not
been large in the aggregate they should

reason that the task OF financing the war

gold cannot be too large for the burden
that will be placed upon it. II is be-
i!eved by bankers that our gold holdings
should be conserved so far as practica-
ble for war purposes, and that every ef-
fort should be made to induce foreign
balances here to remain here in some
form of investment. A little more than
$4,000. 900 was transferred from New
York yesterday for shipment from San

Speaking OF the investment value of

City Bank says: "As this campaign
proceeds more emphasis is laid upon the
excellence of the Investment Although
az per cent seems like low rate in
many sections OF tho country. IL is to he
remembered that this Is the minimum
rate. II any subsequent loan is issued
at higher rate. these bonds will be
converted into the new loau. This is a
proper provision for the protection Of
the persons who came forward promptly
to assist the Government. Without II,
II subsequent issues were made at a
higher rate the equivalent OF a premium
would be paid to those who had held
back The law gives assurance that all
who subscribe to the Government loan
will be placed upon the same basis, II
the war is a long one II Is not improbable
that the rate will have to be higher.
And there is ono further probability of
profit: the interest rate will have to he
such as will sustain the bonds at par
during the war, in order to induce fur
ther subscriptions, and II the bonds are
worth par during the war they will go
well above par when the war is over.
