Want Americans As MandatOrs

Three separate American mandator-
les for the near east, to cover Syria,
Mesopotamia and Turkey will be recon-
mended by the American mission I'M
der Charles r. Crane, according to
understanding which prevailed in
Paris August Both.
1t was also said that in the view of
the Crane commission the peace of
the world would be endangered unless
those manufactures were accepted by
the United States.
The members of the Christian
Churches have been giving money for
a hundred years to send missionaries
to foreign countries to teach those
fecple BY precept and example how to
i've in peace. harmony and love for
each other. The American Christians
and others are the victims of the IN
bred hatred of ignorant natives Of
these countries.
The Christian example of how all
nations can live in peace in America
has been taken to those countries more
forcibly by the world war. An Ameri-
a army doing police duty is now
recommended.
Yet there are many noted Amerl-
cans who have gotten out OF
their continental shell either in Chris
tan missionary or national work to
extend democracy to other parts OF
the earth.
Wherever the British army has gone
in heather chimes their Christian civil
ization has been taken. Two weeks
ago the Record published a letter from
Persia telling of the famine and dis
tress Of the people and how America
was looked to for aid.
Would it not be well for those who
are hindering the peace treaty and
League of Nations Covenant to help
bring peace to all the world learn that
old missionary hymn which has beer
sang for 100 years:
From Greenland's icy mountains,
From midas coral strand,
Where Africa's sunny fountains
Roll down their golden sand.
From many an ancient river,
From many q balmy plain,
They call Us to deliver
Their land from errors chain.
Shall we, whose souls are lighted
With wisdom from on high,
Shall we to men benighted
The lamp Of life deny
SaIvationi Q, Sslvationi
The joyful sound proclaim,
Till earth's remotest nation
Has learned Messiah's name"

What Labor Does Not Consider

There is much talk about the public
ownership of public utilities and in
dustries by men who know little or
nothing about the success and failures.
Many think all industries are only sue
cesses and no failures.
Furthermore, placed in such a po-
sition, labor would necessarily be COM
PEELED to accept all the consequences
of control, including when necessary,
the passing of dividends, sharing of
losses, reducing of wage scales, dis
missing surplus employees, a~bolishing
the minimum wage, sacrificing GER
tainty of income and mourning various
forms of liability"

Woollens Demand Subsidies
Mems Clothing Manufacturers
Buying Less Eagerly

The anxiety Of mems clothing manu-
1facturers to obtain high grade wool
lens and worsteds for spring use has
eoated, according to number of lead
ing mill agents. Buyers who formerly
ordered every number in the limited
sample lines shown by agents, now pick
and choose. Orders are small and the
Wholesale clothers appear to have
adopted a. policy Of extreme conserva-
tism IN ordering new fabrics.
The shortage Of labor in the cloth
ing fabrics, which was marked in New
York all season, has developed in
other clothing centres, noticeably Bal
timore and Chicago, and manufacturers
from those centres now in the cloth
market say that they are hesitating to
acquire heavy stocks Of goods with the
possibility Of having insufficient labor
70 convert them into clothing, facing
them.
With clothing retailers asserting
that the public is averse to paying
present prices for fall and winter
clothing, and all signs pointing to
higher prices for spring, some manu-
facturers are preparing to arbitrarily
cut down spring production to fit Tho
expected curtailed demand. This is
having reflex action on the goods
markets.

impending Holiday
Fails Hinder an
Advance i'm Stocks
Price Level Again Rises,
With Oil and Motor
Shares Leading, Despite
Profit-Taking Sales

Yesterdays stock market ran counter
to Wall Street expectations. Instead of
a quiet trading affair such as most OBJ
servers thought would precede the
double holiday, the Exchange being
closed on Monday in observance of
Columbus Day, the market continued
broad and active, with the price trend
still strongly upward.
Buying Of the industrial shares,
notably the motor issues and the oils,
which pushed the whole level Of the
market sharply ahead on Friday,
showed no signs of slackening. Profit
taking sales appeared in heavy volume
from time to time during the two
hours of trading, but were we'll alb
sorbed without seriously affecting the
forward price swing.
For a Saturday session the market
was the most interesting in months.
The opening was strong, and after the
initial display of strength professional
shorts grew nervous and proceeded to
cover a portion of their mitments.
The fact that the market will be closed
until Tuesday also served to induce
covering; it also brought in good
deal of proft-taking by operators who
bought stocks at considerbly lower
and who did not want to take the
chance Of carrying their holdings over
until next week. The cross currents
of buying and selling that resulted
gave the market at times an appear
ance of irregularity, but the tone held
strong right up to the close.
In the motor group where the ad-
vance was most pronounced several
new high records were made, Pierce
Arrow going to II and closing 6 points
up at Is, Studebaker rising to 1874, up
5%; General Motors to 800, Stutz to
143. and Chandler Motor to 867. The
latter closed at 3611z, up 2615. In the
oil group Mexican Petroleum continued
It's flight with an advance Of Az points
to new high Of 252&.
While the more seasoned industrials
did not indulge in any spectacular
movements the tone here was generally
firm despite heavy realizing. Steel
common closed practically unchanged
at 111ss, after selling to 112A, and Re-
public Steel gained more than point.
Shipping shares were not affected by the
strike of the ongshoremen, which has
tied up the port.
In all 255 different stocks were bought
and sold yesterday, compared with 304
on Friday. Dealings exceeded 100000
shares.

The Dollar in Foreign Exchange

The dollar rose to a higher premium
in European exchange during the last
week, and as a result the condition of
the foreigner desiring to purchase
commodities in this country became
still more onerous. No substantial
relief is in sight, although Belgian
francs may be helped slightly by the
impending $50,00O,000 Belgian govern
ment dollar credit.
On the contrary, dealers are pre-
dieting that the European exchanges
will be further discounted. One of
the largest factors in the market ex~
pressed the opinion that the flood Of
sterling bills against the shipment of
cotton to Great Britain will break the
pound again. He foresaw $4.10 sterl-
ing in the near future and 81 sterling
before the exchanges are stabilized.
Many of the banks and commercial
men have covered the bulk of their
commitments for the rest Of 1919, it
buying against 1920 needs. Some
purchasers of exchange, however, are
holding OFF for lower prices.
The throttling effect Of unstable ex-
change rates will be stressed at the
international Trade Conference at At
lantic City late this month, and the
ideas of Americans, Frenchmen, Brit
ishers, Italians and Belgians will be
pooled. Exporters are in the hope that
workable plan will be developed at
the conference.
Because Of the barriers placed on
commerce by exchange difficulties
Europeans are compelled to readjust
| their plans for reconstruction. France
for example, finds it necessary to defer
rebuilding the desolated districts until
exchange becomes stabilized or until
her own mills are able to furnish the
requisite steel.
II you calculate the cost of the dol.
lar in terms Of foreign money at cur
rent exchange value; that is. if you
~erc buying dollars with pounds, marks
or francs, its value at the close of last

In Wall Street

ssWhat Do You Think of the Markct?"
The president Of leading national
bank: "The market acts as if it were
in strong hands and it has every appear
ance Of going higher. This is all the
more remarkable in view of the pres
ent tightness of call,money rates."
Belgian Steel Makers Want Loan
To overcome the obstacles incident
to deprecated exchange, a group of
important Belgian steel works, which
are in need of huge quantities of semi
finished steel products, is considering
the formation of holding company
which would be able to negotiate a
large bonded loan with its own ore and
coal mines as collateral. The proceeds
of this loan then would be employed
for buying materials and supplies for
the mills in whatever country the loan
was f1oated. Steel men here, who have
been informed of the proposed Belgian
move, believe that the United States
would be the only country able to fur
nish both the credit and the steel. It
Is not expected that any tangible de-
velopments in this direction will take
place until after negotiations for the
$50,000,000 Belgian government loan
are completed

Evans Protests Cummins Bill

dressed letter to Chairman Cummins,
of the Senate Committee on Interstate
Commerce, protest. against the pro-
visions Of the Cummins Bill limiting
the profits Of individual roads. He
says in part: "Our companies own over
S1S,000,000 of railroad securities, of
which amount over s14,000,000 is in

through your committee that the plan is
to limit earnings which may be distrib-

be to kill initiative and lead to waste
Stockholders are as much entitled to
fair dealing US the bondholdcrs, who
took no risks, and after Congress has
put on the books laws which will pro-
vide for reasonable basic rates it is
only just that the roads will be al
lowed to keep what they are able to
earn for themselves, derived from the
reasonable rates as provided by Con-
gress. 1t Is certain that if proper in

railroads will again have the favor of
investors and the country prosper"

houses at the end Of the week, was al

Cuba Cane Financing

Financing plans Of the Cuba Cane

the issuance Of s15,ooo,o0o notes,
which it is believed will provide the
company with sufficient working capt.
tai to carry over this seasons crop.
The amount now reported to be under

than the loan talked of last summer,
when it was said that $25,000,00O would
be needed.

Needed-A Commercial Treaty

One Of the barriers to trade with
France or the part of Americans is
the fact that the United States has
never entered into a reciprocal com
mercial treaty with France by which
products from this country would be
admitted into her boundaries at the
lowest duty under the most favored ma
ton clause, in the same way materials
from England, Italy and Canada are.
Exporters, in calling attention to the
need for diplomatic action, point that
this situation caused little embar-
rassment previous to 1914, when the
exports from the United States to
France were small, but that at present
it places Americans at a decided dis
advantage.
