Cautious Buying
In Futures Shows
Trade Hesitation
Christmas Spending Heavy,
but Brakes Are on Bust
ness i'm Other Lines-La-
Dor Situation Improving
By Archer Wall Douglas

TOLEDO, Dec. 12.--It does not mat
ter much whether you 20 East,
North or South, you get much the
same story of the general attitude
toward the business outlook. "Watch-
ful waiting" tells the story, with
the added note that nobody has
started anything, or rocked the boat
as yet. The war-begottcn instinct
OF team work still obtains, and no one
has tried to save himself from pros
pectlve greater loss by unloading what
ne has at bargain prices. AS nothing
has happened, most dealers have large
ly forgotten their apprehension in the
instinct to go on doing business in
much the same fashion as before, only
with brakes on. The letting out of
men employed on government contracts
has not as yet made itself felt, as many
such are filling up the gaps in the long
existing shortage of labor. Employers
are taking back returning soldiers and
view the labor situation as offering
greater chance Of efficiency and a
smaller turnover of labor.
The general volume of domestic bust
ness has shrunk somewhat, though
some of this is due to the ravages of
influenza. Buying is more caurlous,
save in Christmas and holiday goods,
and this comes as a psychological eff
feet of peace with victory.
The general oncern busies itself
mostly with the happenings from day
to-day and what may occur between now
and spring. The coming days of great
expansion are not real enough so far
to excite more than speculative inter
est. There is much in the press of
the great cities of great revival in
building as increasingly imminent, but
it meets little response
The consensus of opinion is that
great areas of construction do not
arise from such conditions as now pre-
vail, whatever may happen later. There
IS already reaction against the ex-
IRENE reduction in assortments and a
demand for q more liberal variety than
now prevails. The line, largely mag
mary, which it was sought to draw be-
tween essentials and non-essentials is
fading away. Customers buy what
they want without much regard for
aught save for their own tastes. Buy
ing in futures is very light, especially
in goods where sale depends upon the
weather. Dealers will wait until the
freeze comes before investing in
skates and such winter articles. One
general policy is not to carry over any
seasonable goods and not to get over
stocked on anything at present prices.

The Dollar in Foreign Exchange

In the absence of any important
week, dealers in foreign exchange were
interested in reports from London that
agitation has been begun there for a
restoration of normal conditions in the
sterling exchange market. Since early
in the war sterling rates have been ar
bitrarily pegged by means of IN elab
crate system of credit machinery, sight
drafts on London having been held
around $4.751a. The argument is being
made in London that the need of boil
STEERING up the sterling market has
passed now that the war has ended, and
that it will be best for all concerned to
let sterling bills take their own course.
The matter has not yet been decided,
and it has been reported that Sir Ed
ward Holden may visit the United
States in this connection.
Neutral exchanges barely moved last
week The volume of business in this
department of the exchange market is
comparatively small. Very little ex-
change is being made, owing to the fact
that goods now being exported we're
paid for many months ago.
If you calculate the cost of the dol
lar in terms of foreign money at par
value-that is, if you were buying dol
lars with pounds, marks or francs-its
value at the close of last week, as COM
pared with a year ago, would be about
as follows:

u. S. Must Lend
Freely for Trade
OF South America

What country is to assume the COM
manding position in Latin-American
markets now that the war is over and
a return Of more normal conditions is
at hand? VIII Europe regain her for
mer dominant position, or is the United
States to claim at last her rightful
share of business in this field? Those
who have studied the situation assert
that the future position of American
commerce in the Southern and Central
republics will depend almost entirely
upon the amount of capital that Amer
lean investors are willing to export to
those countries. That there is a great
opportunity now presented owing to
the financially impoverished condition
OF Europe is generally admitted.
Growing appreciation Of the i'm
rortance of foreign investments as a
factor in developing trade has led the
Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Com
merce to prepare a report outlining
the. investment situation in all the
Latin american countries. This shows
that before the war the commanding
positions of European nations in GER
tain Latin-American markets was in a
large degree due to their great invest
ments there.
For many years South America, with
its extensive areas of undeveloped and
partly developed territories, has proved
a magnet for the investment of huge
amounts of foreign capital. Great
Britain, according to the figures of the
bureau, has invested in governments
and municipal securities and in stocl
enterprises throughout South and Cen.
trail America, Mexico, and the West
Indies approximately $3.50, o0o, 900
French investments in these countries
are estimated at $780, 900 900 to 81.
700,000,000. Germany with its chair
of banks and its pre-war merchanr
marine occupied an important place ir
Latin-America. With the possible cx
ception of its banks, the most i'm
portant of its investments were in the
public utility field
The Netherlands and Belgium are
owners of banks, and have invested
literally in Latin-American government,
loans and other securities. A large
amount of Brazilian railway stock j;
also held by Belgian interests.
When the war broke out European
Investments in the Latin-Americar
field ceased almost entirely. And a,
