As things stand, no permanent i'm provement seems to be definitely in prospect, and the change in invest ment values in foreign securities is very largely due to this fact. Even where dollar conversion privilege is guaranteed by the issuer of the se- curity the actual status of the invest nlent remains to be determined by circumstances directly dependent upon exchange conditions.
 Outlook for 1920.
 Facing the year 1920, the United States stands as the only free gold market in the world, and by far the greatest holder of gold in the world, as the only Important market for capital on a large scale and as the most extensive source of raw ma terials as well as of manufactures now in existence. It's labor is fully employed and it's productive energies have more than an ample field for their application.
 This inevitably means a contInu- ance of a strong and active business developme ent. The shortage of i'm mediate loan funds, the tightness of money and the effort to contract credit are elements in the policy of maintaining stability and solvency, and they may be expected to con tinue. It cannot. however, dissociate itself from European conditions.

 Government vs. Private Credit.
 It is this transfer of credit that has furnished one of the most striIl- ing financial features of the year 1919 At the time of the armistice practically all business and all credit had been drawn under the control of and into the service of the Gov ernment.
 Banks were practically clogged with so-called war paper" which after the fifth victory loan reached an estimated maximum of S6,50O,- 100000. It was necessary to continue for some months enormously heavy Government expenditures, particular Iy until the return of the troops from France. But eventually after the middle of the year Government de- mands upon the bank became light CT, and it is estimated that in the aggregate they have decreased nearly 9 billion dollars from their peak The funds thus released were not used to retire existing bank credit but were used to sustain investment and speculative operations. Bank loans, coIIateraled by stocks and
 
 six months at about the same rate that Government loans have decreas- ed. Thus the total amount of bank credits outstanding has remained at practically a, maximum, with the re- suit that, as the Government has re- tired, the investment market has ia ken up the slack" using it in its own undertakings.
 The high rates for call money, which have been so prominent a fea- tuTe during the early part of the year, are the outgrowth of efforts to check this continued increase, or at all events maintenance, of the use of banking credit, and they may be expected to continue until a larger margin has been built up between banking deposits and the reserves by which they are supported
 Foreign and Domestic Investments.
 A marked feature of the years developments has been the increas in the investment yield of money, an increase which may be figured at from 1 to per cent on the sounder securities, or reckoning per cent as a normal basis of return before the war an increase of 20 to 40 per cent. of the level then prevailing. This Is very moderate as compared with the level Of prices, which has risen more than 100 per cent.
 The advance has been more strik- ing In the case of foreign than in the case of domestic securities, many for eign securities being now on a 10 per cent. basis or better, although at the beginning of the year they were on practically the same level as American offerings of the same class. This is due to the depreciation of foreign exchange, which has itself been one of the most significant in- cidents of the years work.
 After the withdrawal of the gov ernmentaI support of Sterling, that currency steadily declined to a low point of $3.65 IA, from which there has since been a subsequent improve ment. The maintenance of this i'm provement depends much upon the policy with regard to the granting of foreign credit which is to be adopted by American bankers and by our Government.

Banking Situation

It has been clear as never before in the history of the stock market that the banking situation was of dt- rect significance and that it's position could be clearly measured and under stood.
 In former years this banking posi- tion was much harder to trace be- cause of the scattered system of re- serve holding When New York banks were short of reserves high rates in the call money market drew funds from the interior.
 The experience of former years has been in some measure repeated dur ing the last few months, but only in a very moderate degree. In the main it has appeared that the con- trolling factor in the banking situa- ton was now no longer the position of the New York Clearing House banks, inasmuch Us the surplus or deficit of reserves at these institu- tionS meant nothing more than their rediscounting situation, but that the real factor to be closely watched was the reserve position of the Federal reserve banks, and particularly of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. It has been a notable fact during later months of the year that the general level of reserves in tho Federal reserve banks, which during the war was in the neighborhood of
 to 55 per cent, has fallen to a
 pint but little above 45 to 46 per cent.
 This has been due not only to greater and stronger demands for funds but also to the fact that as the Government gradually withdrew from the market the credit thus re- iohsnd rras iran sferred to the uSa of
