LN~ACI AhaAo0aJs
My dear old Joan:
The story of Mrs. Kymbal makes
1t pretty plain why Eric Wallis has
always just missed being the out
spoken lover. / wish 1 knew all of
their story. 1t is maddening just to
know there was something very near
love between them in those feverish
days of war, when he was pathetic
ally in need of kindness. and She
an unhappy married woman-must
have yearned for sympathy and un-
Outstanding. Besides, he had been
terribly wounded and ill, and do they
not say pity is akin to lover"
But here l am, womanlike, making
excuses for him, when 1 know there
is no excuse to be made for a man
who plans to run away with another
mans wife.
And yet, Joan, and yet-the thing
Is so complex. Can we ever lay down
a rule and say This is wrong" or
THUS and so is right?" Circum-
stances HAVE to be considered. And
my thoughts are like a squirrel in
his cage, rushing round and round
and getting nowhere.
/ once read this phrase, the vir-
tue and legality of all love-" 1t i'm
pressed me deeply. 1 can blame no
one whose sole fault has been love.
But the trouble is, so much is called
love that isn't. So much sheer sell
fishness is excused on the score of
love. So many crimes, SO many bru-
talities, SO many WEAKNESSES are
committed because of 'love" when
real love. which might excuse all, Is
absent.
1 cannot in my heart condemn this
poor Mrs. Kymba1, whose very eyes
are drowned in grief, to live on for
ever with a stupid, w~earisome, busi-
ness-enwrapped dub of a husband
who has never loved her and always
neglected her. Like most people,
she married in good faith. She says
she didn't know what love was and
I believe her. Most of us don't know
what love is. I heard two girls on
the porch yesterday talking about it.
Your engagement ring has a
bigger stone than NINE" said the
first girl to the second looking at her
third finger poutingly.

the world. Shipments Of food and raw materials are upon an enormous and increasing scale. Imports in crease very slowly. and our takiuSs of foreign securities in the shape of government issues are totally made Quate to affect the balance. If we are to sell our surplus and do our bit toward the reha bilitation of Europe, credit must be given on d large scale. IL is estimated that within the next 12 months we shall have to allow credits of at least $1,O0O,- 0O0,000 to European buyera Now that the war is ended, private and not government agencies should pro vide relief. Several important loans have been made to foreign coun- tries, aud more are to follow. Thus week the French government announced the contemplated issue of
 $50, 900 Treasury notes with q maximum weekly maturity of $5,0O0,- 000 for the purpose of handling it's 60 or 90 day bills on the same line as the British Treasury. This plan should afford some relief, and, ii so. the same means could be adopted by other nationaIities. Belgium is now seeking financial aid. It is under stood that local bankers are about agreed upon q. plan for stabilizing ex- change, and that it's announcement will not be long deayed.
 Railroad Outlook.
 Transactions in railroad shares continue upon a limited scale, mainly because of their stabiltzation by gov ernnaent control and guarantee. This state of inertia, however, cannot last indefinitely. Before the end of the current year the roads will probably be returned to their owners in ac- cordance with the pledge made by President Wilson when taken over by the government. This means great changes in conditions under which the roads will operate in fu- ture. They will no longer be under unit control Some of the operat- ing innovations introduced by the government will remain, but many will not. The public is disappointed with government mana cement which doubled charges and halved the service; so the cause of government ownership is at a lower ebb than for many years. Under government con tro1 some roads gained and others lost by changed methods of routing and opera ton. To 8 large extent the former methods will be restored un- der private mana cement. Whethe CT the roads be allowed to advance rates sufficiently to compensate for increased costs, is not yet determined, but something will have to be done to take the place of government guarantee in order to return the roads in as good condition as when taken over. Important new railroad legislation is therefore in prospect. Government Economy.
 Secretary Glass made an encourag- ing statement of treasury conditions that should be kept in mind. Gov ernment expenses have declined to a marked extent amounting in June

 An Unsettled Market.
 The general drift of the market Is downward owing to unfavorable conditions in call money, in foreign exchange and in the labor situation. Month-end transactions caused a. temporary furry and call loans touched IS per cent. That the money outlook iS causing great concern to the authorities Is no secret, as warn lllSS pS the r eUeTdI deserve bOaCd have been given out more than once. There Is no fear that money will not be in sufficient supply for busin>sI purposes during August at least. but the moving of crops will cause heavy withdrawals of funds, and this Is what the banking people are looking forward to. The only reason why the market holds up as well 1t does after such prolonged advance is that people with large means are not anxious to take their profits owing to the high Federal taxation. If 1t were not for this unique feature the float ing supply of stocks would of course be greatly augmented. However, while the big people are not heavy sellers, it is obvious they are not buyers at this level. No doubt rallies will take place from time to time, but until the money supplies in- crease it would seem advisable to get out of debt rather than to create fresh liabilities.
 The new securities issued in July were unusually heavy, amounting to about 0,000,000, compared with S165, 100000 a year ago. The divi- dends and interest distributed in Au- gust are figured at about s165, ,30o,- 100000, as against s165, 100000 last year.
