WEEKLY REVIEW BY
& M'KINNoN

CHICAGO, Nov. 24-Stock: A
review Of the weeks events presents
a fairly satisfactory picture, control
of the submarine, launching Of new
ships, a reorganization in the ship
ping board with assurance Of a
fuldllment OF every expectation for
the required amount Of TONNAGE, ,
assurance that no railroad strikes
are TO be ordered; a fairly salts
factory money market, a lack Of
progress by the invaders in Italy a
brilliant victory on the western
front together constitute a splendid
array Of bullish material, with the
only cloud apparent Overhanging
Russia, where the much feared bear
has degenerated into a passive
nonenity. Anarchy, for the moment
has the upper hand, and while a
separate peace is now accepted as
fOregone confusion, il is more
than likely that further internal
revolutions may follow. Taking a
composite view of the weeks de-
velopments, it seems 70 preponder-
ate on the favorable side. and prob
ably reflected in what may be term
ed a sane and safe market, with
substantial recoveries as the net re-
suit. In a few days congress will
again convene, when a vast mum Der
or important subjects will again be-
come a topic for discussion, and
further legislation. This Will act
against any important. enlargement
of the market from an investment
standpoint. Nevertheless, the basis
for further investment is good, with
prices low and the technique favor
able. II would seem that a con-
servative, friendly attitude is advis-
able, and purchases made on the re
actions should, ultimately prove
profitable.

That record business and record
earnings do not necessarily spell
dividends for stockholders is being
well illustrated nowadays The state
ment made by the president of the
Baldwin Locomotive works portrays
conditions typical with many cor
portions. Mr. Johnson said. while
our earnings have been satisfactory,
the increase in production and in
creased cost of materials and labor
have demanded a large increase in
the amount of working capital. AS
the conditions have been unfavor-
able for any financing, there has
been no alternative but 10 provide
the increased working capital by
borrowing. Continued increasing
activity is likely TO require con-
tinuation of all the capital employ
ed. The directors have wisely de-
cided that il is expedient 10 in
crease the loans in order TO provide
means for dividends on the common
stock. At no time in the history OF
| the works has there been so large ar
amount Of business on the books

CHICAGO, Nov. 24.-Cotton:
There was nothing in the overnight
developments, or in the weekend
statistics TO cause any change in
opinions. The market continues TO
show strong undertone and, as each
day passes and demand appears
from spinners for the actual cotton,
difficulty IS encountered. A scar
city of supplies and the strength
of owners Of the staple is reflected
in a gradual hardening tendency.
Again new high levels were estab-
lished. AS we view it. this should
continue until we have reached the
stage where purchases can no longer
be profitable to the manufacturer
That. in our opinion, will be the
limitation on the price. We see no
reason to change our opinion and
continue TO believe that a higher
level will follow.

NEW YORK, Nov. 24.-Cotton:
New high records were established
in cotton again today The fact that
the market had disregarded the I'M
favorable foreign political news
earlier in the week together with
the continued strength Of the ac-
tuals in the south and the smaller
crop estimates has caused uneasi
ness among the spinners who have
bought freely as a protection against
their future sales Of goods. While
the advance attracts some hedge

offerings have proven considerab bly,
less than the demand Speculation
looks more to the bull side and un-

CINEMA ART FROM
TWO VIEWPOINTS
William David and Henry B,
Walthall Express Divergent
Opinions on Movies
By the Photoplay Editor

William David, who is Will Crosby in
The 18th Chair at the Adelphi. is movie
actor also, although he does not brag
about IT, Mr.. David has just finished his
work In Arms and the Girl" for the Fa-
nous Players Company. Incidentally, the
star OF this picture is Billie Burke, who is
also appearing in Philadelphia now. Mr.
David played opposite her in the picture.
Film acting, however failed to appeal 20
him and he declares that Arms and the
Girl will be- his last picture. He found
the work monotonous and that the absence
or the inspiration OF an audience made
the task seem just a series Of rehearsals,
AS II In rebuttal to Mr. David's views of
motion pictures and the playing before
large audiences Henry Walthall recently
had the following to say before leaTinG for
the West, where he will begin work upon
his own productions
Think of II 20 he exclaimed. Think OF
the possibilities of the photoplay not only
as an art, but with respect to the number
Of persons entertained A player may be
seen In the same silent play in single
day by millions of persons, whereas In the
articulate drama, even before packed
houses. he could not be seen by much more
than 5000. What an inspiration!
ITO become the head of my own produc-
ing company is the realization IL a dream
have cherished for many years. Prob
ably no enterprise, artistic or commercial,
has progressed with such rapid leaps and
bounds as that of the cinema, the most
modern form of expression. II will be my
aim to offer for public approval productions
made with careful study in regard TO the
demand for better screen plays l propose
to present offerings that will constitute an
entire evenings entertainme without the
aid of the so-called '1llers,' which the pub
lie has heretofore been compelled to sit
laboriously through. My definition of the
word art as l shall endeavor to interpret
1t really means a higher quality of stories
corvincingly told on the screen by players
of the best talent and with the adequate
scenic backgrounds whether built by man
or .srought by nature"

We advise this for two reasons. First
because the Oldsmobile, backed by 20
years of manufacturing experience,
is today the best dolar-for-dollar
value obtainable. Secondly, because
we are prepared to make you an al
lowance on your present car that you
simply cannotafford to overlook.
The Oldsmobile has been the popular
choice of Philadelphians for many
years. It's quality and the service it
renders is revelation. The new cars
are now ready for your inspection.

Now is the Time to Replace Your
Present Car With a New OLDS

The closed models, especially the
Sedan at $685., impart new mean
ing to the word luxury" The equip
ment includes automatic car heater
and foot warmer and numerous other
accessories and conVeniences. 1t is
indeed a masterpiece of modern car
construction. The open models are
extremely attractive not only in body
design but to the minutest detail of
appointment,
There is model for practically every
requirement. We repeat-there is no
better buying opportunity available
today.
