Amsterdam, Oct. S.-A semi-oft-

to the attacks of entente airmen on
German towns and says they prove
it is necessary for Germany to press
hack the enemy aerial bases as far
as possible.
"If today. enemy airmen had bases
on the Mouse line or in Belgium we
should discover that the heart OF
Germany would be exposed to enemy
bombs, says the statement.
Tt draws the conclusion that Bel

ALL STOCKS SHOW EARNINGS

New York. Feb. 11.-Looked at
from any viewpoint, whether from
that Of the investor, Spectator or
daily trader, the stock market still
remains a question of sentiment
and international politics rather
than Of value. If values alone were
to be considered it would be easy to
buy stocks which would surely make
ones fortune, for earnings reports
continpe to be record-breakers.
From the earnings point of view
there are hardly any worthless
stocks in Wall Street except those
that have been introduced for pure
~ jobbing purposes since the boom
began.
This condition of affairs would
seem to make it the right time for
investors to buy and great many
are doing so. But the great flood
of investment money is timid, be-
cause down in its heart the investor
is just as anxious to see his principal
increase as he is to be sure of his
regular income.
The German blockade remains
the most important factor of the sit
uation for on its efficiency depends
the whole market. The freight car
blockade in the United States is the
first result.
Several factors in the situation
are of such extreme importance that
they will bear telling more than
once. -
If the United States enters the
war and the blockade remains effec-
tive, prices of materials in America
will decline, wages will fall and the
country will have period of great
prosperity, because its tremendous
activities, having no other outlet
will be devoted to a building-up Of
our own country.
Should the blockade be effective
and America keep out of the war,
almost the same result will be seen
except that less Of the country's ac-
tivities would be devoted to the pro-
duction of war material.
Thus the success of the blockade
could not hurt the country as
whole although, war or no war, its
success would hit the stock market
because of the foreign profits that
would be withheld from the great
corporations.
