Sharp Decline in Favor.
able Trade Balance

The foreign trade of the United
States from 1920 will approximate
$4,000 100000 according to estimates
compiled by the National City Bank
of New York.
This total compares with s1l,oOo,-
100000 in 1919; $4,000, 600 OOo in 1918
and 1917; slightly less than sS.ooo,-
100000 in 1916; slightly more than
,oOO,0oo,00o in 1915, and about s4,-
277OO0,00O IN 1913, the year immedi-
ately preceding the war.
In statement on the subject the
bank expresses the opinion that the
favorable trade balance namely, ex-
cess Of exports over imports-will be
smaller this year than at any time
since 1915. and viii probably approx
mate 100000, 600, as against sl4,-
000000,o00 in 1919, and Il little more
than $4,000 000.000 IN each Of the
three preceding years.

WASHINGTON, Oct. "y'ls 3. w Aggregate rsga
reductions by $232, 900 900 net demand

statement of condition on September "a
OF Sl8 member banks in leading cities.
AS against decrease of $1,000 900 in
United States bonds and nominal in
crease in Victory notes held, the re-
porting banks show a reduction Of $32,-
100000 in their holdings of Treasury
certificates, this reduction constituting
about one-half of the previous weeks
increase following the issuance of the
latest two series of tax certificates.
For the New York City members, re-
ductions of $3.000,O00 in United States
bonds, of about $1,O00,OOO In Victory

ported by government war securities
declined by $5,600,000, while loans sup
ported by corporate securities show an

ing largely commercial loans and dis
counts, went up by S11O.SOO 600 Of
which $12,700,000 represents the in
crease for the New York City members.
Total loans and investments, in conse-
quence of these changes in the princi-
pal assets of the reporting banks, show
an increase Of $S2,900,00O, the CORE
spending increase for the New York

noted.
New-York tribune., 1920-10-04

purposes were Ialrly abundant last
week, despite the tightening up toward
the end Of the period, which caused
rates to climb from Z to a high of 8
per cent. Borrowers still have to live
from hand to mouth on callable fun Is,
for the Banks are showing little dispo-.
sition to increase the supply of credit
for fixed periods A small volume of
money has been lent at per cent in
collateral loans running until the end
of the year, but the aggregate of such
transactions is tiny in proportion to
the demand. Brokers were wondering
last week why, with all the commodity
market liquidation and the release Of
credits through better movement of
cars, the banks were still adhering to
their policy of restricting stock mar
ket loans. The purpose of the banks
by liquidation of commercial loans to
reduce indebtedness at the Federal Re-
serve institutions. Commercial bor-
rowers continue to pay high rates. The
prevailing charge for prime bills varies
from to Sla per cent.
DR.. Anderson makes an interesting
contribution to the discussion as to
when money will become substantially
easier. In his summary of the situa-
tion, which appears in another colurln,
he lays emphasis on the need of tax
tv,,. a. Al.
ton. The economist reveals concretcly
the exten: to which Europe's abnormal
financial status affects the tightness
of credit in this country. DR.. Anderson
estimates that the floating indebtedness
of Europe to private creditors in this
country reaches $3,5OO,000,0O And he
shows that America could not shrink
from the burden of being Europe's
banker even though neither the govern
ment nor private investors were willing
to take ca new commitments in pro-
portion to the needs of the Old World.
He is right in urging that this great
unfunded debt, created by expansion
of bank loans, should as soon as pos
sible be funded and lifted out of the
banks. Until this congestion-~is re-
moved genuinely easy money is not to
be anticipated, even after domestic ad-
justments have been made.
If the Judgment Of the foreign ex-
change experts Is to be relied upon
the market in sterling should now be-
gin to improve. The French selling of
sterling, which is said to have been the
chief depressing influence in the market
for several weeks-it has been held
responsible for forcing sterling Off
more than 25 cents in the pound to
below $3.50-practically came to an
end last week, when the French gov
ernment had apparently completed its
operations in connection with the Anglo
French loan maturity this month. With
this pressure removed, the exchange
bankers take q more hopeful view Of the
outlook for sterling. An interesting as
pcct of the market is the prevalence of
offerings Of small bills. Exchange brok-
ers contend that eventually the general
fall in commodity prices will result in
a sharp contraction in the volume of
business in sterling created in this
country.
