small Credits Harmful.

Some bankers who take broad view
of the international financial situation
and who are not Blinded by glittering
interest rates obtainable on private
credits at this particular time believe
that the shoestrjng credits are harmful
to the general credit situation as viewed
in a broad sense. They point out that
If these comparatively small credits are
not negotiated the entire foreign credit
situation is bound to come to an Immediate
crisis and that a comprehensive foreign
credit system which would embrace all
of the allied countries and all lines OF
merchandise practically would be forced.
They declare that so long as smaller
credits, such as those which have been
granted for sugar, canned goods and
machinery, be arranged the sltuatiop is
Just so much alleviated and the really
big national foreign credit adjustment
is Just that much further postponed
Most of the representative bankers are
OF the opinion that it is a problem which
must be met face to face, and grant
ing a million dollar credit here and an
other there to foreign merchants willing
to pay the prices asked for such ac-
commodatlon is makeshift and a near
sighted piece Of business which is going
to make the determination of n general
foreign credit system just that more
dificult.

7, Cruc,bIe Corneredr

II the old saying that Wall Street
loves a mystery Is true, it should take
to thu present situation in Crucible like
a duaf to water. A succession of rapid
daily gains through a long sustained
movement has put this per cent. stock
from around par to 17Sh, the high
point 1t touched yesterday. On the day
it registered a gain of thirteen clear
points. Half a dozen different stories
about Crucible are in circulation and
the feverish activity in the stock lends
color to the theory that the shorts have
had no opportunity to extricate them
selves from their difficult position. One
of these stories, and probably the most
plausible one, is that the clique which
has been buying into Crucible has so
diminished the floating supply by extrac-
ton of stock from the market that 1t
can come within few thousand shares
of locating every share outstanding.
According to commission house gossip
a large interest in Chicago has boon
fighting the move from par up and is
short some $4,000 to 10000 shares Oh

rounds yesterday was that Crucibie
directors were going to declare even
larger dividend in Liberty bonds than
had been expected. Some OF the
que sses ranged yesterday as hlgh as

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.


Practically the entire professional ele-
ment has switched from bearish and
straddle positions on the market "a
the bullsh side. This was evidenced in
the market letters which went out from
the Street last night and, although here
and there a streak of caution hobs up,
the consensus of opinion in the brok-
erage Offices, after the close yesterday,
was that the days trading had definitely
established a trend THE truce DO
tween capital and labor, which will I'M
doubtedly be brought about by the Adj
ministration," says one large firm. sis
not to be underestimated. 1t is estab-
fishing a precedent of course, but It
cannot help but draw the malcontents
up short. Six months of industry un-
trammelled by labor troubles should set
industry ahead Just at this time as
much as a years operations under nor
NAL conditions" The idea is wide
spread in Wall Street that the possibil-
ity of strike in the steel industry has
gone glimmering.

The Motor Group.

The motor group as a whole was yes
terday among the most buoyant on the
list, with rapid advances scored in some
of the highly speculative issues. With
the exception of Pierce Arrow and
Saxon, which is under the influence of
reorganization and which for that rea-
son are not speculatively attractive at
this time, all Of he standard shares
made steady gains. Chandler scored IL
net points, General Motors 9%, Maxwell
AS, White rs, Studebaker AS and
Stutz 3&. General Motors incidentally
established a new high at 244, at which
1t was up SO points from its low on the
recent break. Its previous high record
was 243, established in June, during the
bull movement General Motors was

or so and that. according to Wall Street
gossip, It will show tremendously sue
cessful year. In connection with the
advance in the motor and accessory
shares one of the large commission
houses in Wall street has gathered some
statistics on the prosperity of the auto
mobile industry in the United States
which show that cars on the road have
increased more than 100000 yearly
since 1914. 1t prints the following table,

Private Credits.

A lively business in what mas peeh
dubbed "shoestring credits" is being
done in the financial district by several
in institutions. Since the first of July one
institution has consummated private
credits of about s15,0Oo,00O. The latest
credit negotiated by this institution was
of $4,000 to finance shipments OF
sugar abroad over six months the
credit running a maximum OF elgh'een
months. Other commodities in which the
shoestring credits have been established
are canned. goods and machinery. In
cidentally this is the first time on RECORD
when sugar has been sold abroad on
other than a cash basis. On account OF
the depreciation in European exchange
or rather the increase in the value oil
the dollar as expressed in sterling ano
francs. the European importers wouio
go without sugar rather than pay casI
at present foreign exchange levels. II
would be more profitable to them. II
is hardly necessary to say that THESE
c6mparatively small credits are arranged
Al a rate that is extremely profitable tc

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-m ans
wer to numerous requests that he use
his influence TO secure the discharge
OF Individual soldiers, sailors and ma
rines from active service, Represent
ative Macarthur says that neither the
war nor navy departments would dis
charge a man from the service upon
the recommendation of a senator or
congressman, bupt that such action
would be taken only upon the recom>
manding officer. The following is a
statement given out today by Mr. Me-
Arthur on this subject:
Since the signing of the armistice
1 have received many letters and tele,
grams asking that secure the re-
lease of men from the army and ma
wy and / will say that a very large
majority of these cases have been al
together meritorious and that in my
| Judgment the men affected are en-
titled to an early discharge. Both
| the war and navy departments, how
ever, have politely but firmly ad-
1 vsed me that men will not be dis
discharged from the service upon re-
quest of a senator or congressman
hut that their cases viii be consider
/ ed only upon the recommendation OF
Immediate commanding officers. This
! rule may seem harsh and unjust. bun
/ IL 1t were otherwise the service In
! both the army and navy would soor
! become demoralized. / am therefore
advising those who wish to secure the
release of relatives and friends from
the service to have their applications
made through the commanding off
GERS
4 How Discharged.
| THE war department advises me
/ that enlisted men may be discharged
upon their own application where
there is sickness or other distress in
the soldiers family. or where he l.
| needed to resume employment in al
/ industry or occupation in which there
| IS urgent need of his services: pro
yided such discharge will not disrupt
/ or cripple the military organization
| to which he is attached. This regu
lation applies to all soldiers who en-
| listed or who were inducted into the
service since April /, 1917. Men wh'
enlisted in the regular army prior to
that time must service out their full
| enlistments.
The bureau Of navigation OF thu
navy department has authorized al
commandants and commanding offl-
| GERS to release from active service
and discharge from their enlistment'
/ 90 per cent of the naval reservisti
ard enlisted men of the regular army

who enlisted i'm the regular army for

charges without referring them to this
