SEES PASSING OF THE
INDUSTRIAL CRISIS

That the crisis of industrial unrest
In this country has been passed and
that better. business conditions may
be anticipated from now on is the
view taken by the National Bank of
Commerce in New York in its market
letter in the December issue of its
magazine. Commerce Monthly. The
oank points to the failure of the
steel strike. the yielding of the coal
miners to constituted authority, and
the plans for deporting dangerous
aliens as signs of better days.
AS a result of the coal strike" the
bank says, 1.-The production of bitumi-
nous coal has been greatly curtailed.
In the week ending November s less
than a third as much coal was mined
ended October 25. October pig iron
production was only 1.S63,55S gross
tons, the smallest monthly output
since February. 1915. 1t will be some
time before production reaches the
level attained before the strike. Fur
daily capacity of 65.625 gross tons. as
compared with $1,000 tons on October
1918. ''''' VII =
Production of crude petroleum in
September, the latest month for which
statistics are available. made a new
record, 34.4S7,00O barrels. Wool con-
sumption for September was 60.000.-
900 pounds. greast equivalent. This is
the highest monthly consumption for
any month in this year excepting
July, when 100000 pounds were
consumed. Cotton consumption in Oc-.
tober was 64,031 bales over the pre-
ceding month, being 555,344 running
bales, exclusive of linters. There were
more active cotton spindles reported
in October than ever before. Building
contracts awarded for the month of
October were higher than for any
preceding month of the current year.
Great activity is reported in the de-
mand for practically all grades of
and the customary in
crease in retail business preceding the
holidays is felt to an even greater
degree than usual.
summarizing, the entire. situation
furnishes no ground for discourage
ment, and it seems likely that better
conditions may now be anticipated for
each succeeding month"

STOCK. MARKET WAS
ACTIVE, IRREGULAR

NEW YORK, November 29.-After
another decline in the opening hours
today, prices on the stock exchange
recovered, first slowly, then somewhat
rapidly. but with much irregularity of
movement.
The market was altogether profess
sional in character: the dominant in
fuence being organized groups of spec
ulators for the fall. exactly as the mar
ket of month ago was dominant by
similar groups of spectators for the
rise.
On the rebound OF the second hour
some of the losses were recovered in
part or whole.
Oils reacted moderately with ship
pings and metals, hut those issues also
made partial recoverieS.
y few leaders. including United
States Steel and investment rails,
showed moderate gains toward the end.
The closing was irregular. Sales APP
proXimated 100000 shares.

STOCK MARKET SHOWS
APESS|M|ST|C TONE

From the y. Y. Evening Post Financial Bureau
NEW YORK, November 29-Ever
since the aggressive selling of specu-
lators for the decline supplanted the
forced liquidation of unlucky specula-
tors for the rise, Wall street has been
1nterpreteting each incident of the
days news in the most gloomy way
conceivable. The things which have
been happening this week, at hearing
which the stock exchange has rocked
with apprehension. have, as a matter of
TACT. been exactly the same kind of
things. happening in exactly the same
way, as those which occurred in Sep
TENDER and October. But the market
itself had changed.
This might be imagined to mean that
the, stock market has now proved itself
permanently untrustworthy for the in
depreciation or the foreShadowing OF
events That would, however, be hasty
inference
: At the moment. in its reaction from
the recent reckless perversion of the
machinery OF credit, the atmosphere of
the financial market is as much oh
scured as it was month ago. But we
snail presently have normal market
again-something with which wall
street has not been favored since last
summer.
May Reject Real Judgment.
In the meantime. it is possible that
tio sloCh IlldTheC alLltude toward Ger
tam current events will begin at once
10 reflect the real financial judgment.
10 an extent it did so, even in the
autumn speculation, which was based.
primarily at any rate, on a really ex-
iiaordlnary situation as regards both
the profits of industrial enterprise
and our trade with the outside world.
1t seemed then to be passing no
judgment whatever on the course of
events at Washington; that it will nol
lie easy to continue that attitude.
The progress of the railway bill in
Congress, after the regular session
begins, can hardly fail to be intel
lig1bly reflected in the market.
The Senate's procedure in the mat
ter of the treaty will also have to be
reckoned with, especially when even
speculative Wall street is now begin
ming to understand what immense is
sues and interests, even in the mat
ter of maintaining our own home
production and foreign trade, are de-
pendent on the just settlement of
that question.
