change for the better over Sunday

count for it, Professional bears were
not so brash about pounding industrial
sfclalties as they were last week. In

market showed signs of continuing its

Getting Out From Under

Elliott c. McDougal, head of the
Bank of Buffalo, banker whose opin-
ions are highly respected, thinks the
time has come for curtailment of bust
ness expansion and is frank to say so.
In message to business houses and
wage earners in his district he de-
clares that "constantly rising prices
with low production cannot continue;
collapse is sure to come and cannot be
far Off. DO not delude yourselves, let
no one delude you into the belief that
the present era of high wages with
easy Jobs of high prices with large
and easy profits, can continue Speak
ing to the butcher, the grocer, the
tailor, the dressmaker, the milliner
and the retail dealer of every kind he
admonishes them thus: Sell on credit
just as little as possible. Don't let
your customers get behind with their
bills. AS the outlook is to-day YOU
would be better off without their trade
than with their trade and constantly
increasing book accounts. With ali
your care it will be hard for you to
keep down your book accounts after
the tide has turned. The time to act
IS now. when people are able to pay.
Because we do not know when trouble
IS coming we are unable to say to you:
Begin to cut down your credits next
year. or the year after We do saw
Begin now If man cannot keen

Steel Meeting To-day

three month period ended December 81

dends declared or both classes of stock,
Steel common did comparatively little
Having been left more or less alone by
the professional bear crowd when they
were banging away right and left at
other more vulnerable issues, it was not
surprising that Steel should act as it
did in a market in which price move
ments were governed to large extent
by short covering operations. The
Street looks for large drop in earn
ings for the December quarter. 1t was
in this quarter that the brunt of the
strike of steel workers was felt by the
corporation. The strike started on
September %. 1t reached it's peak in
October. Conservative estimates put
the loss in earnings for the three
months due to the stress of the labor
upheaval at approximately s1O,000,000.
Assuming that this figure is right, net
earnings should be in the neigh hborhood
of $30,000,000.
