Business Money

The tendency toward ease in the COM
mercial paper market continues. More
paper can be sold at ~ per cent. The
general rate continues at 5h, but pre-
dictions are made by some brokers
that it will be down to 5N per cent
basis within week or ten days. At
present practically all of the 5N per
cent paper sold is out of town. Chi
cago and St. Louis are taking a good
deal Of it, and are even taking some s
per cent paper. Such paper is natural
ly of an exceptional name, with an ex-
ceptionally short maturity. Yesterdays
market was quiet. One large bank
which had entered the market on
Thursday withdrew. A better market
is expected at the beginning of next
week.
The terms of the Liberty Loan, it is
announced from Washington, will be
published on Monday. knowledge of
these terms, unless they prove to be
greatly out of line with expectations,
should better the situation. The banks
will know where they stand how diff
ficult is it going to be to float the loan;
how many of the government notes the
banks are likely to be called upon to
take, and how much they will be able

Jewelrv
Precious Stones Adrance
as Importers Find 1t
Harder to- Buy abroad

Owing to the difficulty importers are
having in buying gems in leading Euro
pean markets, where, according to lat
est report, supplies of precious stones
are growing smaller, prices are ad-
vancing. Several large manufacturing
jewellers here have increased prices of
their diamond goods within the last
few days.
Manufacturers report that despite
higher prices there is tendency to
again bring into vogue large diamond
necklaces, costing 100000 each, and
higher. Persons who twenty years ago
would be satisfied with wearing a neck
lace costing from $4,000 to $4,000. are
now buying articles the cost of which
run into five figures. 1t is said that
those who have become wealthy dur
ing the war period have been most
prone to let the question of several
thousand dollars difference in cost
determine their selection of a necklace
on appearance rather than on the
quality of the diamonds. Persons long
accustomed to spending conside rable
money on their jewelry usually select
the better stones, irrespective of price.

Property owners are preparing to
paint their houses and barns this
spring regardless of the high cost of
co,ors and oils. They seem to have
come to the conclusion that it would
be useless TO wait for lower prices, and
furthermore, it has become necessary
in great many cases where buildings
were allowed to go unpaintcd the last
two or three seasons on account of the
war to recoat them. now in order to
preserve the woodwork
1t will be at least another year, in the
opinion of w. H. Phillips, president of
the Devoe & Reynolds Company, Inc,
paint manufacturers, before any per-
takes place. Lower prices, he stated
yesterday, will not come until there has
been reduction in the cost of both
raw materials and labor, and the short
age of linseed oil is relieved. The re-
duced supply of the latter is attributed
to the short fax crop last season and
the difficulty of getting shipments
through from Argentina.
"Construction work has not been re-
sumed on large scale" said Mr.. Phil
lips, "but we expect business to come
with a rush when general industrial
conditions have become more settled,
and builders realize that price reduc-
tions are not to be expected for some
time Dealers have held off in antici-
patton of declining market, but be-
lieve they will begin stocking up in the

this government issue is likely also to
have it's reaction on the commercia ial
paper and acceptance markets. Uncer-
tainty on these questions has helped to
make the market as quiet as it is.
Manufacturers and mills seem re-
Gently to be borrowing more, accord
ing to one broker, and retailers some
what less. In some lines there has
been practically no borrowing at all,
because collections have been so mar
vellously good.
The bank acceptance market was
quite dull. What few bills do come on
the market are acquired through siren
uous effort and drawing on out of town
sources. Most of the sales are made
in this city, and the demand is de-
scribed as fairly good. Call money
was quoted at 6 per cent throughout
yesterday. Some brokers had even ex-
pected it to be tighter than it was. 1t
was the last day set for payment for
the 5000, 100000 Of War Finance Cor
poration notes. An easier tendency is
widely expected in the acceptance mar
ket after the loan is out of the way.
Fifteen to sixty day prime trade ac-
ceptances we're quoted at 5M5A per
cent; sixty to ninety days, 5@5h per
cent; ndorsed trade acceptances, Az

Retailers of leather goods also are

have less stock on hand than ever be-
fore at this time of the year. Big
dealers declare that because of the
