SteePs Resistance to Selling

United States Steel commons re-
sistance to selling pressure. in view
of the big losses sustained in the rest
of the market was the subject of much
comment in brokerage offices yesterday.
There was talk of good buying on a
scale down. but probably the most I'M
portant factor in preventing q worse
decline was the fact that on Friday
the stock sells ex dividend 3A per
cent, which includes the regulars dis
bursement of IL per cent and per

American banking under the new
reserve laws has undergone a truly
remarkable development. At the
last reporting date the 749 leading
banks Of the Federal Reserve Sys-
tenn, with total loans of $1O,5O0,-
00,000, had actual holdings of cash
in vault of 81 per cent of this
amount. Three-quarters of their re-
serves were held with the Federal
Reserve banks.
If one-tenth Of the anticipation
of all the gloomy foreboders as to
coming unemployment when war
work ceases be realized, then at
least no public service corporation
or other employer Of labor for pub
lie works will be able to offer as
an excuse for unsatisfactory service
or non-performance of obligations
the inability to get men. One diff
Guilty sometimes solves another, and
lne account Is balanced.
1t is a curious fact that the last
war loan in Hungary, closing less
than sixty days before the retire
ment of Austria Hungary from the
war, was the largest of Hungary's
eight war loans and reached nearly
000,000,000 crowns. So little
prophecy did the war loans give of
the impending collapse.
In the face of considerable rise
in export prices, the dollar value
CT merchandise exports for October
was less than in the same month Of
a year ago. This is likewise true
for the total exports for the ten
months of this year, as compared
with the same period in 1917. The
great increase in the actual volume
of exports was then wholly in gov
ernment shipments. Though this
increase, which ran into hundreds OF
millions in value, was in some part
merely change of shippers, the
balance still leaves a very large
slack to take up, if anything like
the 1851 requirements Of the
Allied nations are maintained.

DON'T SUFFER
 WITH NEURALGIA
Use Soothing Musterole

When those sharp pains go shooting through your head, when your skull seems as if it you'd split, just rub a little Musterolc on your temples and neck. It draws out the inflammation, soothes away the pain, usually giving quick relief.
 Musterolc is clean, white ointment, made with oil of mustard. Better than a mustard plaster and does not blister.
 Many doctors and nurses frankly rec. ommend Musterole fer sore throat, bron- chitis, croup, stiff neck, asthma, neural gia, congestion, pleurisy, rheumatism, lumbago, pains and aches of the back or oints, sprains, sore muscles, bruises, chiiblains, frosted feet - colds of the chest it often prevents pneumonia).
