Believes In Popular Finance

Secretary McAdoo firmly believes
that the only way this war can be
adequately financed is by the support
Of the whole people. He became con-
vinced of the superiority of popular
finance more than twenty years ago
When he was re-readlng the history of
the Civil War about score OF years
ago the present Secretary of the
Treasury was impressed with what he
considered the unwise financial policy
of Secretary Chase AS he recon-
structed the situation that Chase
faced during the Civil War in his
minds eye. Mr.. McAdoo asked himself
why Chase did not have the foresight
to go directly to the people of the
North, who were strongly behind the
war, and call upon them for the finan-
cial sinews. 81 did rot think that
would some time become Secretary of
the Treasury myself" Mr.. McAdoo
said; "but from that time forward had
very definite ideas on how a war could
be financed properly. From the be
ginning Of this war I realized that we
had TO go right to the people, and we
shall have to continue to do SO as
long as the war lasts"

Praise for Bank of France

An appreciation Of the service of
the Bank of France to the French Re
public in aiding it to finance its de-
fence against the Teuton invasion ap-
pears in a recent bulletin of the Paris
Chamber Of Commerce, which says:
"As an Independent private institu-
ton, possession its own capital, gov
erned by 'conseil de regence, sec
onded by a 'conseil d'escompte,' con-
sisting of representatives of the finan-
cjal, manufacturing and commercial
world and managed with liberal fore
sight and discretion, thus assuring the
soundness of its credit, the Bank Of
France was fully equal to its task in
times Of peace and has carried itself
successfully through the ordeal of
war. Besides this, its strength Of en-
durance in the days of stress and the
beneficial influence it exercised over
the different branches of industry
have won for it the well deserved
gratitude Of the public at large"

Leading Stocks

War Victories and Prospect
of Easier Money Make
the Market Active

Under the cumulative effect Of con-
tlnued favorable war news from the
European battlefronts, and with the
prospect OF preferential treatment of
call loans by banks based on Stock
Exchange collateral, the stock market
yesterday broke away from its recent
iethargy and on active buying estab-
llshed new high prices for the year in q
number of leading issues. The move
ment was accelerated by purchases
from those who had previously sold
stocks in the belief that quotations
would go lower.
The significant feature of the trad
ing was the strength displayed by the
so-called international issues, by which
is meant those securities that were held
extensively abroad before the war and
were dumped without thought Of value
into this market in the early summer of
1914. 1t was limited in influential bank
ing quarters that some Of the current
buying was emanating from the same

Relevant Comment
State Rights and Street Rails

Sources in touch with the attitude of
the Administration in regard to Fed
eral operation Of the street railways
during the remainder of the war de-
clare it is felt in Washington that
the doctrine of states rights is a
serious obstacle. 1t is argued that if
the Jurisdiction of the Federal gov
ernment still has any limitations oper-
alton of streetcars wholly within S
state or a municipality is one of the
forbidden things. Practical public
utility men, who are anxious for an
emergency programme to save the pub
lie service corporations from threat
ened bankruptcy, say this is the resur-
rection Of q fairly obsolete political
tenet which at one time caused the
nation to divide into two great hostile
camps.

Coal production in the Calais district
Of France has greatly increased during
the war. A consular report states that
Of the four large mines two were
worked to the utmost. It is estimated
that during 1917 100000 tons of coal
were extracted at Marles against l.
100000 tons in 1913. At Rruay the re-
suits were still more remarkable, the
estimated production reaching n total
Of 1900 900 tons in 1917, against g.
100000 in 1913. The annual pre-war
production of the coal mines in this
region averaged 250oo, 600 tons

Railroads Loading More Coal

That the railroad administration Is
putting forth its best efforts to bring
about freer movement of coal Is dis
closed in recent reports. During the
week ended August 10 the carriers
loaded ,o6s cars with coal Of all
kinds, compared with 4b3 100 cars load
ed during the sponding period Of
1917. Reports for the week ended Au-
gust II showed that 496,032 cars were
loaded against 1894 cars the CORE
spending week a year ago. The increase
Of 1918 up to and including the week
ended August II over the like period
Of 1917 is estimated at 452,573 cars.

ME the war news was regarded as
the principal factor to account for yes
terday's rise in prices, much Importance
was also attached to the announcement
that j. P. Morgan & Co., beginning to-
morrow, Will make call loans at Az per
cent against acceptance eligible for re-
discount at the Federal Reserve Bank.
Ihls action, which is expected will be
followed by other banking institutions.
may lead TO an easing OF the money sit
uation so far as it is related to stock
market operations, as advances made to
acceptance dealers may be called with
out disturbance to the money market.
In this connection it developed yes
terday that the New York Federal Re
serve Bank has been quietly advancing
money in the open market on accept.
ances, at call, to member as well as
non-member institutions. This step
was taken, 1t was stated, in recognition
of the necessity that existed for sup
plying an adequate volume Of LIQUID
funds to finance the bill market. the
rate charged has been equivalent to the
prevailing discount rate. While this
innovation has been adopted more or
less as an emergency measure, it is re-
garded as a policy that has come to
stay.
The significance of the new departure
lies in the fact that the Reserve Bank
is now extending accommodation 10
non member Institutions. In its sched-
ule of DISCOUNTS there is provision
for one day accommodation in connec-
ton with the loan operations of the
government, at to Az per cent, but
this has been extended only to mem
Der institutions.
