New Financing.

Bankers say that preliminary plans
for considerable new financing that will
be done after the close OF the Victory
Liberty Loan campaign are being drawn
and that several announcements OF new
projects may be expected during the
latter part OF May or the first part of
June. The proposed new financing, none
OF the details OF which may be disclosed
at this time. includes public utility and
Industrial properties. Practically all of
the old financing which was undigested
month ago has been cleared away.
The way lie all smooth for a resumption
OF business on the old scale with the
close OF the loan campaign. In this con-
nection II Is reported that an attractive
demand for high grade bonds has sprung
up in the large Southern cities. The
demand from the South for bonds is an
entirely new one and due, no doubt,
to the prosperity brought to that sec
ton OF the country by the high prices
for cotton and other war-brought gains.
Atlanta. New Orleans and Dallas are
reported To be absorbing high grade
bonds at rate that Is surprising even

Exemption of Liberty Bonds.

A steady demand for Liberty bonds
of the early issues in the last two days
has stiffened prices considerably in these
securities, the gains from the low fig
ures OF last week being approximately
one-half OF per cent. One OF the
reasons has been an appreciation OF the
tax exemption feature OF the bonds.
The National City Company yesterday
issued a summary Of the tax exemption
features of the Government war loans.
which attracted wide attention in the
financial district. 1t explains that In
addition TO the exemption from normal
income tax granted by the acts au-
thorizing the bonds there are certain
exemptions running from two to five
years as follows For a period OF two
years after the war income on 100000
OF bonds; from two to four years Cop
tional three years after the war;, in
come on $4,000 OF bonds: from four
to Ave years after the war the income

Exchange. to be held this afternoon, the
problem Of adjustment OF commissions

brings charges up to an average. Brok-
ers objected particularly to handling

than $40 a share and on which they
made one-sixteenth of per cent on a
transaction. and declared this to be
entirely out of line with the one-eighth

In the past the policy OF the company
has been to disclose the amount of re-

and tho failure to do so at this time Is
regarded in some quarters as significant
The possibility that the reserve for
taxes for the last quarter is small in
comparison to preceding quarters has
been suggested. IL Is suggested also
that II that theory be true the corpora
tton may be planning to make a larger
reserve In the next three quarters Of
the year to make up any difference
which might be noted in the taxes prop
erly chargeable against the first quar-
ter's business and the amount actually
set aside for their payment.

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.
Tho Steel Dividend.

Notwithstanding stories to the effect
that the Street has discounted any ac-
ton which the Steel directors might take
toward wiping out entirely the extra div
idend on the common stock which have
been going around. the general opinion
In commission and banking houses yes
terday appeared to be that an. extra
dividend OF one-half of per cent. would
be declared. The Street has been saying
that II did not expect any extra dividend
on Steel common, but the fact remains
nevertheless that a large majority was
badly disappointed when the figures
were announced last night. One banker
said yesterday that the directors would
pay l per cent. extra or no extra at
all. adding that Judge Gary holds that
the Steel Corporation is too big to take
two bites to a cherry and that II earn
ings did not Justify full per cent. extra
none at all would be paid His predic-
tion proved true. Had the corporation
paid full per cent. extra on the COM
mon the operations for the quarter
would have resulted In a deficit of
nearly $4,000. 1t is interesting to
note in connection with the statement
that the total earnings for the quarter
declined steadily from month to month
tho March earnings being nearly $4,000
600 lese than those for January.

For thousands of years we d.d not

no advantage from it,
If we had never heard music. We
would say it was merely the dream Of

full harmony OF sounds from n comb-
nation of wood, intestnes OF a dead
eat and hairs from the tail of horse.
But the violin, plus the man who
knows how, accomplishes the wonder
full result.
Active talent is the source of both
quantity and quality of production,
and that does not lie in capital but
in men, and it usually is latent
Every man has power and courage,
but not all of them know 1t.
