OLD JOBS AWAITING
RETURNING SOLDIERS
Most Corporations and Business
Houses Here, Will Take Care
of Former Employees

Philadelphia's Homecoming heroes who
gave up their positions to enter the service
will not suffer for want of opportunities to
take up civilian life where they left off.
officials of manufacturing concerns, cor
porations and mercantile establishments here
are unanimous in their assertions that the
enlisted man will be offered his old position
or its equivalent when he returns from can
tonment and overseas.
Following are statements by representa-
tives of business firms:
Herbert Tiley. general manager. Straw
bridge & Clothier: I'VE will be very glaG
to take back every man who left our employ
temporarily to enlist They are absolutely
sure of their old positions with US"
@. W. StuiI, superintendent of Wana-
Makers I'VE are working out plan now
with view to making room for the soldiers
when they return. Everything will be settled
within a few days"
Bell Telephone Company, publicity depart
ment "Ofiicals of the company desire to
say that everything possible will be done to
install the enlisted man in his former post.
We do not know how many of the thousand
or more who went away will return to US,
and until this is determined, we cannot form
any definite program OF Encouragement OF
our personnel"
Edward q. Budd. president Of the E. G.
Budd Manufacturing Company: THE SOL
dier boys will be we'll taken care of by US.
We have had a standing plan since the be-
ginning of the war to reinstate every man In
our employ who Joined the colors. They
fought for us, and they deserve every con-
sderation."
Sivert c. Perry, superintendent of Lit
Brothers.: "Wel receive the boys with open
arms. Every one who left our employ to
enter the service more than 200 all told, will
be taken care of, come what may"
John & Jamss Dobson, Inc.: 1.-THE matter
has not been discussed. but we have every
hope of finding places for the homecoming
soldier. We feel that it is a patriotic obli-
CATION"
Edward II. Roberts. vice president and
general manager of Henry Dsston & Sons
turn the enlisted men to their sold posts 1t
will be a pleasure. They all fine boys
we esteem them highly and certainly want
them back. 1t has always been the policy of
the company to give the enlisted man every
consideration During the Civil War. we
paid our soldiers half salary while they were
away, and the same plan was applied dur
ing the border troubles in Mexico
Samuel Snellenburg, of n. Sneenburg 4
Co.: THE returning men will be given en-
ployment, We cannot assure them their
former places, but We intend that they shall
be just as we'll off before the war;
A. A. Christian. advertising manager at
Gimbel Brothers. THE boys will be taken
care of. Every man was told that his job
was good when he went away"
Atlantic Refining Company officials:
There is every likelihood that the boys will
be reinstated. Aside from patriotic consider
atoms, we need men very badly and will
probably feel a Shortage Of labor for some
years. The returning soldiers will likely form
a large addition to our present staff Of en-
ployes."

Cotton

The cotton market was quiet enough
yesterday to suggest that traders we're
generally inclined to await the official
text OF the German note and its re-
ception at the Allied capitals. The
reports concerning the note which
first reached the trade evidently re-
vived optimism as to peace prospects
IN some measure, but failed to inspire
any activity, and moderate rallies
we're we're lost in the late trading, with
the market closing barely steady at
net decline OF 35 to 55 points.
A sharp break came during the ear
her Iier trading under scattering liouida-
ton, which included selling orders
from the South and Liverpool. There
mad been buying toward the close of
last week, and vague rumors that i'm

sunday. and the failure of these to
materlalize was a disappointment. The
early selling was attributed largely to
the situation in this respect, and after
opening unchanged to II points lower

under Saturdays closing figures. After
these first offerings had been absorbed.

mas been estimated that import re-
quirements Of the Allied countries
this season will amount to about 44O,-
OUO,000 bushels This amount can an
rarently be furnished by the United
States and Canada, and in the event of
peace there is an apparent surplus of
between 30O.000,000 and 100000, 900

those countries, especially as there is
little to be hoped for in the way of
supplies in Russia and the Balkan
States, which usually contribute large
~ as a source Of supply.
Corn.-The corn market was nervous
and feverish, advancing to 3 cents a
bushel early in the day, and later
breaking s to cents. The early up
turn was due largely to covering and
reinstating of lines by those who had
sold last week on the persistent
rumors that some very important an
nouncements would be made over Sun
Gay IN regard to the political situa-
tlon in Europe. The early news con-
tanned nothing of vital importance, but
when the reports were circulated that
germany was willing to accept Presi-
dent Wilson'S terms in regard to an
armistice and to submit the arrange
ments to the military authorities there

market broke in consequence The

M arine War Risk
to the
Foes New Promises
Only Actual Stoppage of
U-Boat Warfare Can
Reduce Rates

The assertion in the unofficial text
of the latest German note to esident
Wilson that Germany has despatched
orders to submarine commanders pre-
cludlng the torpedoing Of passenger
ships" was received with skepticism in
marine war risk insurance circles here
yesterday. Insurance authorities de-
clared that mere promise from Ger
many could have no substantial effect
on rates on vessels which go through
the war zone,
Only an actual stoppagc of illegal
submarine warfare on passenger ships
could substantially reduce the war risk
rates, 1t was sald. In the last year,
as result of the evcr-decrcasing
effectiveness OF the U-boat as a weapon
OF destruction. war risk rates declined
from an average of to 10 per cent
to IA per cent, at which level they are
now quoted. If the Teuton promise to
abandon the submarine is verified and
redeemed by the events of the next
few months, it is likely that the rates
may fall as low as to / per cent.
THE promise of Gcrmany's diplo-
matlsts to desist from ruthless U-boat
warfare cannot have any pcrceptblc
influence on the insurance man who is
ilgurlng rates." leading insurance au-
thortty said. "As matter Of fact, a Gree
pass from the German government is
worthless now in marine insurance
circles. Belgian relief ships and car
goes destined to the Swiss government
nave free passes, which are supposed
to exempt them from submarine at
tack, yet the war risk rate on such
vessels is the same as on any others.
The German pledge has no market
value"
Even if Germany should actually
cease to wage U-boat warfare against
passenger ships it was pointed out
that as long as the war lasts war risk
insurance for shipping would continue

volume. AS long as there are mines

man raider menacing the water high

and doubt was expressed whether the
rate would decline lower than l Der
cent as long as the war lasts.
The war risk insurance on ships is
carried in addition to the regular
marine perils insurance, which is
quoted at about u to / per cent. In
Surance experts pointed out yesterday
that war risk insurance will be carried
for period after peace comes. mas
much as there may still be danger from

tillties were over. After the war, how
ever, the Allied navies will undoubtedly
make every effort promptly to clear
the seas of mines so far as possible.

last year competition of government
underwriting was an important
factor, although the progressive falling
