LATEST FROM WALL STREET
BY WIRE AND OTHER WISE

, NEW YORK, June 15.-Prices were
generally higher as q consequence OF
much short covering and quite few
additions to long lines, the buying
being inspired for the most part by
the more favorable tenor Of the news
from the battle zone.
Now that tax payments have been
concluded it is anticipated that money
will be. in fresr supply. particularly
for nxed periods, which may lend en-
courSgement to operations In selected

While taxation and other problems
still have to be grappled with and

SPECIAL Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June 15.-The week
closed on the stock exchange today
with display of activity and strength
which has not been witnessed on .
Saturday since April. The upward
movement converged especially on the
Industrial shares. in which the ad-
vances ran in some cases from Z to
Z points. But railway shares also
gained ground. though with consid-
srably less activity. Taken as q
whole. the days market reflected an
unmistakahle hopefulness. There were
no fresh developments in the days
news to account for the movement,
which, however. was ascribed to the
general agreement in the overnight
DISPATCHES that the latest German
drive" had been definitely brought to
an end.
The fact that the reaction from the
high point Of the recent prolonged ad-
vance on the stock exchange has gone
no further is q fair indication, first
that the financial community Is satis-
ned with the latest war news: second.
that It recognizes the Importance Of
the harvest outlook and OF the excel
lent results achieved in our indus
trial war work, and finally, that 1t is
not at present disturbed over the
prospects OF increased taxation. In all
three directions, except possibly the
last, this weeks developments have
emphasized the great change in the
gensral situation which has occurred
since the discouragtng days at the
close Of the winter season:
The market has shown signs of mo-
@ent4fy nervousness when each of
the successive German drives of
the season began: but the declines
were usually cancelled on the next
business day. On the occasions when
planning why Amiens must fall. Ypres
Be abandoned. and, finally. Com
pieene be given up, the stock ex-
change gave no sign of a change in
its point Of view.

no means ended. and it still remains
for the stock markets Judgment to

peafance in dispatches and war office

War Savings Urged.

Pledges to avoid needless expense. to
save wherever possible and to in SO
far as possible induce others to save
that the future financing of the ma
tion may be made easier, are being
signed very freely in all local banks
and elsewhere throughout the city.
A. Barton Hepburn, a former con-
troller OF the currency, and now chair
man of the advisory board of the
Chase National Bank, has prepared a
very able article on this subject un-
der the caption: Big Increase in Pri-
vate Savings Demanded by the War"
Mr.. Hepburn holds that 1.-The citizens
must furnish the sinews for the con-
must help and that the lessons that
have been impressed upon the nation
on thrift, may make US better off
financially, at the end Of the war.
Each individual who does save out
Of current income and place his saw
ings at the service of his government
Is not only providing the government
with the means of securing Its neces-
sary war equipment without drawing
on its principal, but he is at the same
time helping toward the other half Of
Americas equipment problem.
when we declared war we joined
forces with our allies and pledged
ourselves as a nation to wage war to
the utmost Of our ability. This con-
stitutes q promise on our part to sup
ply the wherewithal for the keeping
Of that pledge. Rigid and grueling
economy, such as this country has
never before dreamed of, is necessary.
Can we keep this pledge?"
