French Industrial Activity

Much that is of interest bearing on
the economic and financial situation IN
France is contained in a report made
to the stockholders of the Bank OF
France by NJ. Pallain, the governor OF
the institution, copies Of which have
just been received here. "a sure in
dication of the industrial activity IN
France" the report states; sis to be
found in the increasing demand Tor
coal. The coal owners have pushed for
ward the working of their mines with
renewed vigor The coal output was vas
greatly increased in 1917 1t is still
on the whole below what it was before
the war, for, owing to invasion, we are
deprived of the coal fields Of the Nord
and the richest parts of the depart
ment of the Pas Calais; however,
in the mines that are being worked the
output exceeds by about 40 per cent
what it was in 1913. The growth of in
dustrial production resulted in a
marked increase in commercial trans
actions as a whole. In 1917 the amount
realized by stamps for bills exceeded
by 81 per cent what it was in 1916"

A decidedly encouraging feature
of the monthly iron statistics is that

against 84,640 tons on March 1. The

crisis and severe weather is indi-
Gated by average daily production
during March Of 103,648 tons, or
19,0O8 tons more than the capacity

Favorable weather and more or

in speeding up railroad traffic, unit!

We are now using this rel;.ious ele.
