TRADE OUTLOOK.

NEW YORK. May 3.-Dun's Review
of Trade says: Economic aspects, while
still rejecting many contrasts Of light
and shade. grow steadily brighter.
Some of the dark spots. as those in
the great iron and steel industry, re-
main conspicuous. but that decisive
recovery from the after-war repres-
sion has occurred In some other lead
ing branches is no longer to be
doubted. and. best of all, there has
been further strengthening of that
confidence which Is essential to sus-
tained progress. 1t is not now a ques-
tion. in short, as to whether condi-
tions have improved. but only as to
what lengths the commercial revival
has already carried. and as to how
soon the general peace-time expan-
sion which seems to be clearly por-
tended will make its appearance
All the traditional elements Of pros
perity are present; economically the
country has moved into q powerful
position, and but for the delay in the
adjustment Of those complex interna-
tional problems which have inevi-
tably come as an aftermath of the
greatest war in history the domestic
business Development would probably
be more far-reaching and rapid.

LOCAL MEAT MARKET.

Weekly report Of meat trade condi-
tions in Washington for week ending
May 2 by United States bureau OF mar
kets:
The market opened this week showing
very little activity, which did not i'm
prove much at any time during the
week. There was a liberal carryoyer
on hand. and receipts continued to ar
rive in liberal quantities.
The demand for straight beef was very
poor. Retailers were buying sparingly.
making purchases only OF those cuts
that were in steady demand by the
housewife.
There was liberal supply Of veal.
with poor demand Poor and bony
calves, regardless Of weight. were par
ticularly dull, preference being shown
for tho better grades.
Western pork loins, averaging eight
ton ten pounds, were offered at S34 per
hundredweight and moved slowly at this
price. Receipts were fairly liberal.
Receipts OF lambs were plentiful ana
limited demand caused accumulation.
Despite this, wholesalers held prices fair
ly steady until Friday. when 1t became
necessary to offer liberal concessions to
prevent quitting coolers.
The demand for mutton was at
standstiI, and sheep carried over from
last week were still in the coolers this
morning and hard to move at any figure.
There was q considerable quantity Of
all classes Of meats on hand today.
Wholesalers tried hard to sell large
quantities. but found 1t a hard task, as
rstatlers were buying on hand-to-
mouth basis.

PLANS MADE BY THE
/ GRAPHOPHONE CO.
Directors Suggest That Out
standing Bonds and Notes
Be Retired.
BIG LOCAL INTEREST
BY I. A. FLEMING.

Important announcements were re-
ceived this morning from the office:
of the Columbia Graphophone tina,
would seem to suggest an intent or
the part of the corporation to wipe
out its bonded debt, pay off its out.
standing notes and liquidate any bank
obligations that 1T may have upon
its books.
The only funded debt of the Amer
lean Graphophone Company, which
the Columbia company assumed, with
other liabilities, when 1T succeeded
to the rights of the business, con-
sisted of s1,936.S00 Of per cent first
mortgage bonds and S2,200,000 pal
value of notes. The bonds are call
able at par and the notes at 102.
Shareholders of the corporation are
to meet May 9, on special call, to vote
OF this proposition emanatinS from
the board of directors.
The directors ask permission to dis
pose of 10000 shares of the per cent
preferred stock of the corporation
now in the treasury, not giving any
holder of either commoIS or preferred
any rights to the new shares, or any
stock that may be authorized In the
future, or bonds. debentures or other
the sole right of disposition being left
in the hands of the directors-so far
as permitted by law.
If the sale of the $4,000 shares of
preferred stock is made at par 1t
would produce $7200,o0o, whereas the
obligations to be retired total but $4.-
1876, 500. 1t is on this that the theory
of the liquidation of bank loans.
which by reason of the large amount
of credit business. the company is
obliged to carry. is based.
At the same time, that is at the
special meeting, an amended certifi-
cate of incorporation will be passed
upon. The preferred stock under the
articles of Incorporation is entitled to
IN per cent quarterly. dividend,
cumulative, and preference as to par
value and dividends in the event of
liquidation, but have no vote or voice
in proceedings or management of the
corporation unless after six-month-
default in payment of quarterly
dividend out of earnings or a default
in payment to sinking fund for six
months of the agreed amount.
On or before October, 1919, and on
or before the LIST day of April Of
each year thereafter. a sinking fund
payment of n per cent of the par
value of the preferred stock shall be
made, to be used and applied to the
purchase of preferred stock. Addi-
tional payments to the sinking fund
for the purpose of retiring the pre-
ferred stock will be made at stated
PERIODS II warranted, the preferred
shares to be taken in at not over 10.
Offices for transfer of stock will be
maintained in New York city.
Washington investors probably hold
100000 par value of the first
mortgage bonds and a very large
amount of the common and preferred
stock. While there are scores Of
brokers engaged in executing orders
in these shares, the actual listing of
the stock has been accomplished no.
where but in Washington, and it
should be obligatory on the part Of
the company to maintain a transfer
office here.

BOY:
SCOUTS
Fl
SCOUTS ARE NOT FOR SALE

Another letter received at national
headquarters suggests criticism.
This letter states:
There Is hardly week that some
business house does not have some
plan to offer for using our organixa-
tion to sell goods"
1t Is an unfortunate fact that 50
many men have failed to understand
that the ideal Of service wrought into
the boy scout movement Is entirely
free Of the spirit Of gain.
The scout good turn which takes on
so many forms and has even risen to
the high plane OF national service In
the time Of war cannot be bought. 1t
Is not devised to help Increase the
gains Of any person or business or In
stitution. 1t Is helpfulness outside Of
the field Of commercialism.
It Is true that scouts can work for
money. But II Is equally true that
neither scout nor troop should be
worked for money. Let no individual
and no concern try to break down that
fine distinction.
IF a boy scout does any one Of the
many honorable things boy can do
for business concerns and for others
to earn money. he does II as boy. not
No boy scout.
