The Mechanics and Metals Ma.

The Mechanics and Metals Ma
tional Bank brings the meaning
and size of the worlds war debt, in
an interesting way, to the man on
the street. 1t says that the average
American will have to contribute
the product of fifteen days labor to
the support Of the government in
1920, the Britisher will have to work
eighty-four days for the upkeep of
the government, the German ninety,
the Frenchman 104. This is vivid,
but apt to mislead. 1t is likely to be
used by people who want to talk of
reputation: and persons already
filed with fears of what readjust-
ment to peace may involve, are like
ly to count this enormous war debt,
under which the nations are now
supposed to be staggering" as an
other milestone to be carried through
the coming years. But the war
debt is not burden. 1t is simply
problem in distribution.

The automobile industry is fortu-
nately unfortunate. 1t had to turn
itself from making of pleasure cars
to the making Of implements of war,
and must now turn back again.
Such conversions take time. Mean
while one has little to sell. But the
period of conversion for the auto
mobile industry happens to CORE
spond with the period of hesitation
and holding off on the part Of buy
ers in all trades because of the ex-
pectation of price adjustment. When
that period passes there will not un-
likely be a buying movement. If
the automobile companies have COM
pleted their conversion then, they
will have lost little. Among the
disadvantages which the pleasure
car industry no longer faces are the
scarcity of raw materials, the scar
city of labor, the rigid economy
campaigns, and the absorption of
funds by continuous war loans, the
last of which is now in sight. If
the price of steel drops sharply, the
automobile companies will get the
benefit of it. For long Period the
buying of automobiles has been de-
ferred; and this creates what euto-
mobile manufacturers think is a
vacuum in the market waiting to be
filed. Sudden and single day move
ments of stock prices are not al
ways to be trusted, but yesterdays
activity and strength in the auto
mobile group may have been
prompted by considerations like
these.

The market Of yesterday, as that
of the day before, called for no pro-
found comment. 1t was stupid
affair, and revealed its professional
nature without disguise. The mar
ket of Thursday went up because
the market of Wednesday had gone
too far down. When the market of
Thursday had risen just bit, trad
ing almost died away. The same
thing occurred yesterday. On the
'bulges," the market becomes dull.
That all seems to mean that the
principal buyers of stocks are the
professional persons who have sold
them short; thew BUY the stocks
back when they are sure of small
profit, and Whens they have bought,
nobody else wants to, and trading
comes almost to standstill That
gives rise to one of Wall Streets
oldest theories-"If they cannot go
up they will go down." and on this
theory professionals yesterday af-
ternoon sold stocks. The market
declined, to be sure, on their selling,
but the decline was no more signif-
icant nor convincing than the pre-
vious rise. On the rise of stocks
brought about by short covering,
professionals will make a den'on-
stration in this speciality or in that,
and we have such spectacles as on
Thursday, when trading in Amer
lean Druggists Syndicate, of which
nobody ever heard, was second only

Diission house comment becomes
