Industries and Values Inflated.

Home affairs are in state of ex-
traofdfnary fiux. says Henry Clews. in
his weekly financial review. The
government has been thrown into a
condition Of intense perplexity by
the neglect OF Congress to make nec-
essary appropriations before adjourn
ment. Public opinion is, consequent
-ly; growie,x more and more urgent for
an early special session. which may
compel President Wilson to return
eeSifef than he desired. Many of
the eevernment's necessary func-
tions are now being delayed for want
Of funds, the railroads being very
sertously inconvegtthnced by demands
which the government imposed upon
them and IL morally obliged to meet"
Continuing, the Henry Clews review
says: "A.l our industries are enor
nously inflated; 30, too, are values,
which are receding. though the down.
ward movement is slow, and it will
be years before the pre-war basis
il reached. II ever. Wages are not
recedfng, and labor difficulties may
be expected indefinitely. because until
values drop materially there can be
no material change in wages. It is
conceded that labor will receive
larger share in the total product than
heretofore. This object has already
been partially accomplished and will
not be resisted by Intelligent en-

sonable and brought about gradually,
instead of by violence that would
simply destroy capital and leave la
Dor in a worse position than ever.
Time. a spirit Of fair dealing and
play. will surely solve these diff
culties. Business men. though per-
picked, are not discouraged. and.
while cautious, are generally op-
tfmistic. Industry is slack in spots
but, given steady prices on a lower
basis, as well as fairly stable labor
conditions, it would quickly revive.
Big distributing merchants aye in a
similar position. Generally they are
carrying small stocks Of finished
goods, and are prepared to buy freely
when satisfied that prices are UPON a
| more stable basis"
Roads Face Bad Situation.
A financial authority, discussing the
railroad situation, says: Something
should be done for the railroads be-
fore the failure of Congress to meet
their financial needs creates seri-
Gus situation. Our government seiz-
ed control of the roads as war
measure, at the same time advancing
wages over 100000, 900 year. In
spite Of higher rates and various
economies intended to Offset this
enormously increased obligation. the
roads find themselves faced with a
bad situation. which only Congress
can overcome. In January the def
cit from operation was about S55,-
100000. and it is estimated that the
net losses for the present year will
be nearly $1,000, 900. The best
way out is for Congress to provide
the $750.000,000 revolving fund, which.
experts assert. is absolutely necessary
il the roads are to maintain their
equipment and service, or make need.
ed improvements and preserve their
credit. The roads were taken over
as measure of national self-protec-
tion, and simply as mat
ter Of good faith the government
must help the roads out of the slough
into which it was compelled to throw
them"

''The past month has been repiete
with significance in the field OF for
etgn trade, but the appearance OF a
new high level of monthly exports
last January attracts first attention.,
says the First National Bank of Bos-
ton in it's weekly news letter.
Total expectations in that month
were s623,OO0,e00, an increase of $l1S.-
600, 600 over January. 1918. and nearly
$40, 900 above the previous high
record for the month in 1917. Imports
amounted to only s213. 100000. SO that
the balance in our favor was $41o,-
600, 900, also an unprecedented figure.
Shipments of crude materials for
manufactures and foodstuffs were
about double the figures of the pre-.
vious January. but shipments OF
other classes of commodities either
remained stationary or showed ratner
large declines. Increases in food ex-
portation to Europe were especially
marked. Shipments to Europe IN
creased about 10 per cent over Jam
uary, 1918, but the larger exporta-
tions went to Holland. Spain and the
Scandinavian countries. the amounts
going to France. Great Britain and
Italy showing substantial declines
Exports to South America increased
over $50 per cent; to Asia. SO per cent
