Beatty Unafraid of
Government Ownershin

MONTREAL, Que, May 7.-E. W.
Beatty, president of the Canadian
Pacific Railway, in q statement to the
shareholders at the annual meeting
here to-day declared the railroads of
the Dominion faced an Unprecedented"
condition regarding construction, and
that the Canadian government rail-
ways and the Canadian Pacific were the
only ones with resources sufficient to
enable them to provide any great
amount of additional facilities.
Discussing government ownership
President beatty said he had no fear
of it, but that government ownership
apparently has some fear OF Ezisste
competition under equal conditions.
The Canadian Pacific directors, ne
said, had decided that "a reasonable
amount Of additional branch line con
struction %iould be started ms soon as
conditions warrant

Stock Exchange Adopts
New Commission Rates
Members Approve HigherSch
ule Recommended by Gov
erning Committee

Increases in commission rates to the
public ranging from 20 per cent to 90
per cent will become effective to-day
as result of majority vote by mem
bers of the Stock Exchange on the
recommendation of the governing COM
mittee that the charges be raised to
offset the higher costs of conducting
the business of the brokers.
The members of the exchange, fol-
lowing the action of the governing
committee, had week in which to
signify their approval. The time limit
expired at 8 o'clock yesterday. The
higher rates now in effect are as fol-
lows:
A charge of $3.50 hundred shares
on all stocks selling under $40 share;
S15 per hundred shares on all stocks
selling at $40 share and above, but
under S125 a share; $40 per hundred
shares on all stocks selling at $125 a
share and above. Minor increases were
made in the commissions affecting
trading between members of the ex-
change.

Keeping Up With 1t

A broker remarked yesterday that
the stock market was strong, in the
face of selling to take profits, be-
cause no big firm now cares to take
on new accounts. The reason is sim
ply that Wall Street has reached the
mechanical and physical limit of its
ability to handle business. The broker
remarked that his own house, by lin
iting new business, had so kept abreast
with its accounts that it is not day
behind. A few years ago, in the mar
kets of 1915 and 1918, surplus bust
ness was SO great that many houses
had to keep their clerical forces at
work all night, and provide couches for
them at the Offices, Some firms were
two weeks behind. 1t is believed that
only three or four houses are now in
anything approaching this condition.

Memories of the Lusitania

1t was just four years ago yesterday
shat one of the widest movements ever
witnessed on the Stock Exchange took
place, as result of the sinking of the
Lusitania by the German U-boat &c.
Prices, which had held firm even after
the news OF the outrage had reached
Wall Street, later collapsed, and the
declines in some issues, notably Beth
lehem Steel, were at times more than
10 points between sales. The subse-
quent recoveries form one of the in
teresting chapters in the great bull
market of 1916.

Motor Trucks for Highways

Announcement that the War Depart
ment plans to distribute 10000 motor
trucks to the highway departments of
the various states for use on the pub
lie roads was considered favorabl
development from the viewpoint of the
motor truck manufacturing companies.
Some apprehension had been mani
tested lest these surplus trucks of the
army might be dumped on the market
in manner that would cause unsettle-
ment and hurt business. OF the motor
vehicles to be turned over TO the indi-
vidual states, 11,000 are new and 9.00C
used, but all are said to be in service.

Market Opinion
-.merican Hide and Leather

The advance in American Hide and
Leather to a figure Is points higher
than it had ever previously sold un-
questlonably foreshadows some definite
action to be taken in connection with
the accumulated dividends on this is
sue. The rather large inventories that
the leather companies have been carry
ing, combined with their small pre-war
earnings, had led good many to be-
lieve that with the establishment of an
open market there would be danger of
sharp marking down of inventories
and reversion to the pre-war level of
earnings. This point of view is prov
ing to have been incorrect On the
contrary, the hide situation is one of
the strongest of that of any commod-
lty, and conditions throughout the
world as affecting this seem to warrant
the expectation Of a higher level of
earnings for several years to come

Trading yesterday exceeded one
million and half shares. More diff
ferent issues were traded in than
on any previous day in the history
of the exchange, and industrial and
railroad stocks, in the average price
compilations of The Tribune, both
reached new high records for the
year.
The advance in the railroad stocks
melted by the official statement that
an extra session of Congress would
be called for May 10 would pos
sibly have been much greater had it
not been for the statement of the
director general, in the morning
papers, exhibiting the poor earnings
of the railroads for the first three
months of the year and declaring
that present conditions are too alb
normal to serve as a basis for any
general changes in the level of rates
and that it is preferable to defer
action"
But reviving optimism OF the rail-
road stocks has deep roots. In the
more narrow market considerations
there is the thought that the railroad
stocks, having risen only one-fourth
or one-third as much as the indus
trial stocks in the last three months,
have so much more prosperity to dis
count. Their technical position" is
presumably better. The roads will
this fall have to carry the greatest
wheat crop on record. The present
temper of Congress is less antag-
onistic than it has been in years
Some think a rate increase, even if
delayed, is ultimately inevitable.
And when government war loans
have ceased to provide an outlet for
investment funds dividend paying
railroad stocks may regain some of
their old attraction.
The distinction should always be
kept in mind between deficit of the

General commentator has met the
conservative action Of the directors of
the United States Steel Corporation in
conservation Of resources. 1t should
be remembered that the company has
just as much money, and will perhaps
carry to profit and loss a little more
than if the extra disbursement had
been continued. Stockholders are no
poorer; on the contrary, they are bet
ter protected, and we believe purchases

100000 for the first three months OF
this year represents merely the net
loss of the taxpayers to the railway
security holders in that time. There
is no average deficit in the usual
sense-that is, decline of total re-
ceipts below total expenses; there
is, in fact, net operating income
for the first quarter of 1919 of

of this figure below the $173, 3,000,-

1917. Only the Eastern roads had
