FOREIGN LOANS COMING
~ WILLIAM JUsTus BoIEs.

Among the most suggestive develop
ments OF our highly confused but ex-
tremely interesting financial situation
have been the recent move of bankers to
organize heavily capitalized corporations
to market American produce abroad. the
fat refusal by Treasury officials and the
Reserve Board to grant special credits
to specific industries. the growing num-
Der of applications for large loans from
foreign governments and municipalities.
broader buying Of securities by genuine
investors and the significant move by
workers in Rhode Island textile mills
and other factories to scale down their
wages to enable great plants to con-
tinue operations. Those. developments
we're given fresh interest by the discus
sions of the bankers in session in Wash
ington concerning the best means Of re-
lieving the credit strain and making I'm
dividuals and communities return to u
normal degree of self-help and self-re-

extraordinary Bond Market.

With the broad buying OF per cent
bonds. notes and preferred stocks, the
absorption of high grade securities by
genuine investors has reached the larg-
est total demand since the world war
began. 1t IS real investment buying OF
the best sort. coming largely from small
investors and representing every section
of the country IT is in many respects
the most encouraging bond market that
Wall Street has had for many years
because orders are not from institutions
but from individuals. 1t marks an i'm
portant change because. in the large
bond markets before the war. the banks
and trust companies in the United
States figured heavily with orders for
their own investment account. Further
more, present buying is by the rank and
file of small investors. who, after many
months of waiting. are showing their
confidence In the future by employing
their savings in good securities of the
long term variety, which is the best in
vestment buying that the market pro-
vides. Securities sold to that class OF
buyers usually stay sold" being held
for income producing purposes. That
type of bond buyer represents some OF
the country's shrewdest investors who
pay outright for what they buy and
hold on like grim death after they have
placed the securities in their strong
boxes.

letter is. in part, as follows:

HEAD OF STATE POLICE
WILL REMEMBER JUNE is

1t is a strange coincidence that Ma
jor Robert e. Marsh assumed com.
mand of the Michigan State Police
Just one year, to a day, after he was
shot and seriously wounded by a
whisky-runner near Crystal Falls. In
June 1919, there was considerable
lawlessness along the Wisconsin bor-
der of the upper peninsula aud Capt.
Marsh, then in command of the upper
peninsula troop, was on an inspection
trip with Lieuts. Vandervoort and
High when they encountered two for
eigners with a carload of whisky. The
two men were arrested but one Of
them drew a revolver and wounded
Capt. Marsh In the back OF the neck.
Lieut. Vandervoort shot and killed the
prisoner who had done the shooting
and also wounded the other whisky
runner who was attempting to es-
cape.

when he is In trouble he tells the

people insist upon making an amuse-
ment park out Of his barnyard: they
run his cattle, ride his horses, steal
his fruit and tear up his gardens. Last
summer the marauders climbed over
the fence and rode a valuable horse
bareback around the farm. The ami

Mr.. Harvey was forced to sell It at
