ROADS OPERATE
ATLOSSIN MAY
Deficit Incurred Despite
Huge Increase in Op-
Grating Income.

The railroads Of the country opcr-
ated at a loss Of SI3.f55.S71 during
May Of this year as compared with
a surplus Of $39.34O,216 in May of
1919. when the carriers were under
Federal control. These figures were
made public by the-Burcau of Sta
tistics Of the Interstate Commerce
Commission yesterday.
The deficit was incurred despite
the fact that the gross operating
income of the roads totaIed s42.-
100000 more in May of this year
than in May 1919. There was an
increase this year. however, of some
S36.O0O,O00 in transportation ex-
penSeS alone. There was a surplus
in net operating revenue in only
two districts. In the Eastern the
deficit totaled S16,O42.O94. and in the
Western. $243,124. The Pocahontss
district had surplus of S2.OS5.15O,
and the Southern, s744,1S7.
During the first FIVE months of
1920 the net operating revenue of
the rOass was only S23,6O7.OS2, a
falling off of more than $50, 900. 900

siderable liquidation in all pits near

Corn closed IL to cents lower.
The weakness of wheat coupled
with sharp break in corn was
largely responsible for the losses.
September was especially weak, De-

A gradual and natural rezojust-
mcnt OF business conditions with
out financial disorder is predicted
by the United States Chamber Of
Commerce, in its semi-snnuaI bull
letin on general business. made
public here yesterday.
While many disturbing factors.
such as labor unrest, tight money.
high cost Of necessities and the
Iusso-Polish war are mentioned as
disturbing factors, crop and other
conditions are so satisfactory thar
the Chamber finds widespread belief
that business will continue Eatisfac-
tory throughout the year Alto
Eether, it states. there is no reason
whatsoever to anticipate a panic.
The report says in part:
Amid cross currents and eddies
OF the industrial situation a definite
trend seems to be slowly develonInE
toward a gradually increasing gain
Of supply upon demand and a some
what lower level OF prices. In tex
tiles and in some manufactures OF
leather there has been decrease in
production and lower prices.
Here and there mills have shut
down or are running Cor reduced
time. What will happen next is ex-
citing much interest and many
prophecies.
There is much complaint Of IN.
ineficicncy OF labor and Of It's
scarcity. though this latter grows
less marked. Ship building displays
lcssened activity.
Contraction in financial credits
has put 'wildcattinE' out Of bust
ness in the oil regions which makes
business there dull. Supplies for
drilling oil wells are no longer
called for
Construction and building have
slowed down. because Of high prices
and scarcity OF labor and materials
and practical withdrawal OF credit

Of about l2.5OO.OOO bales.
There will be more oats than

both cane and beet. and especially
a hay crop Of such proportions as
should have a marked effect in re-
dUCinE the cost OF livestock. and
Of dairy and poultry products.
From every State and every sec
