ternational law is not invade the
sovereignty of Mexico, not to attack
the government, but to punish or ex-
terminate the bandits who held the
Americans for ransom.

Business Money

for commercial paper may 60 lower
again next week or a little later. One
of the features of the market has been
the absence of notes Of large and we'll
known concerns. This may be true
only in New York, and perhaps reflects
the ability of better known houses to
borrow cheaper elsewhere.
Bank acceptance dealers throughout
the week have found a good demand
for their bills and cali money has been
low, but business is not borrowing and
the dealers could not get the bills,
They are ashamed for the exiguity of
paper in their portfolios.
The most interesting development of
the week is the proposal of Director
General Hines that equipment company
creditors of the railroads be offered
ninety-day trade aceeptances to finance
their immediate needs The effect of
such a method on the acceptance mar
ket will be watched with keen interest
The range of rates on commercial
paper throughout the week was un-
changed from the week before-two

Invites in the shoe business for some

Rubber
Drug Trade WeU Stocked
With Rubber Goods
for the Summer

AS result Of the big business done
during the period of the influenza cpl
demic retail druggists are in better
shape financially than they have been
in some time and have purchased am
pie stocks Of sundries to carry them
over the hot weather months. Conse-
quently the wholesale drug sundry
business is showing a letup.
During the epidemic the druggists
we're pressed for merchandise. and
because of the urgency of government
orders manufacturers found it diff
cult to fill the requirements of the
retailers. In some cases the man
ufacturers could have supplied the
rubber goods without delay, but
because of the shortage Of GER
tain metal parts, such as shoppers
for ice bags, ETC., shipments had to be
held up. After the signing Of the
armistice the manufacturers had an
opportunity to catch up on trade or
ders and now retailers are we'll stocked
with merchandise.
