ReUieW of the Week
Financial Review by Financial
Editor.
: BY Financial Editor.

Financial Review by Financial
Editor.
Public interest in the market dur
ing the first half of the week was
conspicuous by its absence. Trans
actions were insignificant. The dull
ness at times became so pronounced
as to suggest the thought that 1t
may be the elimination of the long
period Of uncertainty. and the fore
runner of a more active public par
ticipatOn. The prevailing conditions
may possibly be due TO the suspense
that prevailed in regard to the i'm
pOrtant international problems
confronting the administration.
The Siberian-Japanese question
is still undetermined. OF more
immediate importance was the
decision of England and the United
States TO exercise their rights I'M
der old established international law
to take possession of neutral ship
ping in their respective waters. This
during the mid-week. when the
president issued a proclamation ex-
ercising his authority under the law,
taking possession of a large num-
Der of Dutch ships now in our har-
bors, which will add very materially
TO our tonnage, and relieve in a ma
terial way our congested terminals
at the seaboard. For awhile there
were limitations that this would
g. InrT - N,1r 81
stand against US in the war. The
Dutch government, however, will
hesitate in view of the certainly that
it's mainstay, Java, would be in
stantly taken from her. In all like
lihood, the action of the president
will close the incident.
During the last three days the
market has been effected by the
German offensive but prices have
not been severely disturbed because
Of the healthy condition of the mar
ket and the confident feeling that
exists in Wall street that the Ger
man drive will be a great failure.
The railroad control bill is now
a law. having been signed by the
president on Thursday. This marks
a change in the affairs of American
railroads that may be permanent.
The methods prevailing heretofore
in railroad management may now be
thing of the past Much immediate
good will result from this action of
the government. The railroads will
be improved: expanded, and eco
nomically managed. The service to
the public will be greater and the
benefits TO the stockholders will be
permanent. Railroad securities may
now be placed as semi-government
securities. They will acquire a well
merited distinction and occupy
unique position among investments.
The future is assured. and higher
prices will result as soon as money
rates shall Justify extension OF in
vestment in this direction.
The war finance corporation bill
was passed by the house. with some
notifications. but still in a form
which will do much good to many Of
the country's corporations who are
in need Of financial assistance. The
changes that have been made will
no doubt be promptly settled in a
conference committee, and a speedy

Rubber v. Willis

sound, and it is probable that COM
pany will maintain dividends on this
senior issue in good or bad times.
But the shares are not more attract
i've than Bethlehem Steel new s per

If you were 10 sell your Rubber

you should be able TO switch into

chase Rubber at a more attractive

enactment in q new form by both
branches of congress may be looked
for.
There was some uncertainty for
awhile in regard 10 the new schedule
of prices for steel products. During
the week a conference occurred in
Washington where an agreement
has been reached. The main re-
quisite in matters of this kind is
stability Of prices, so that manufac-
turers can adjust themselves TO the
scale. 1t is the fluctuations which are
harmful, and tend TO disorganize
and disrupt business. At the present
time there is not much opportunity
for the public to purchase steel pro-
ducts, as all energies are being de-
voted to government needs, but with
prices established on a stable basis,
the outside demand will soon de-
velop. and as fast as government or
ders are filled, outside business will
be able TO receive attention from the
manufacturers.
The country now is far behind on
railroad construction. These two
branches Of business will be sIfi-
cient to occupy the time of the mills
for considerable period.
IL is estimated in conservative
railroad circles that there will be
spent this year by the government
close on to $4,000. 900. 600 for rolling
stock equipment for the railroads.
This will not only give an enormous
addition to the business of the steel
companies, but will also occupy the
full time of equipment manufactur-
ers for several years. 1t is this bril-
liant prospect that has attracted so
much attention TO companies en-
