CURIOUS PATERNALIsM

VThe federal reserve disposition toward "a meticulous paternalism is curiously ex-
 emplified in an order issued by the Chi
 cigo bank forbidding any clerk who gets
 less than s125 month to marry without consulting the chief clerk, the apparent, though mistaken assumption being that
 matrimony is among the non-essentials. The transportation tie-up is almost as fictitious as the shortage of credit. The railroads are gasping for financial breath while the interstate commerce commits sion waits upon the labor board to de- eide the wage question before announcing the advance in rates which every one
 knows will have to be allowed.
 Meantime we must wait. Goods are awaiting. shipment, coal is awaiting car
 riage and an increasing number of men
 are awaiting work while the agencies of
 government that have been set up to fa-
 cilitate business debate and deliberate. As to coal there seems to be no doubt that nearly all the trouble is due to the
 shortage of transportation. The New
 York Central is advertising an increase of
 p per cent over 1919 in it's coal loadngs for the first five months of 1920. Other statistics indicate that there would be
 no shortage in production if cars were
 promptly discharged. The geological
 survey, for instance, reports bitumnous
 production of 262, 272,0 GOO tons for the first 153 working days of 1920, approximately A, 73,000 tons more than the production during the same time in 1919.

COAL OUT OF GROUND

l In a report issued July Is the interstate commerce commission asserts that "loaded cars in the hands of spectators are clogging the terminals of the rail- roads at virtually every point east of the
 Mississippi river and are preventing the movement to destination of thousands of other loaded cars" This looks like the usual attempt to blame it on the spec ulator, but it is reassuring nevertheless l to know that the coal is out of the ground and is to be had if it can be moved Precedent justifies the belief that it will soon be moved, and that the trans portation tie-up will shortly be united, l for the railroad managers and the inter- state commerce commission realize that there is to be an election next autumn
 ! and that the American people will not much longer tolerate the intoerable
 Upon the foregoing premise it may be affirmed with sconndencc that business conditions are sound. Good crops are be- | ing harvester or in prospect. Future trading in wheat was resumed in Chi cago July 15 on the basis of 75 for the December option. The price has since de- clined about 10 cents a bushel on the brilliant crop outlook. A sharp decline in foreign exchange is interpreted as mean ing a continuance of heavy exports. Cot ton has advanced upon the theory that European takings next year will ap- proach the pre-war normal and absorb the present surplus plus the prospective crop which continues to Improve. tre- mendous apple crop and shortage or barrels is predicted. There is much talk O. curtailnent in the demand for motor cars and tires. but it is an old story of which the public has become incredu- lous, although it must be admitted that the business of selling automobiles on time has been checked by the scarcity

piles and other property confiscated by the government in prohibition cases.
 This report does not include all of the cars seized by the local office, accord ing to MT. Pierce, nor any of the cars confiscated in other sections of the state. It is an accumulation of sales by the Birmingham office, 1t is stated.
 It is estimated that property seized all over the state when sold will probably show a total of S600o. Many of the ve- hicles confiscated during the past six months are tied up pending the outcome of litigation which has arisen since the seizures, stated Mir. Pierce.
 Among the property sold recently, the proceeds of which were turned over to MT McNeel yesterday, were seven auto mobiles, two mules, one horse, two wagons and a quantity of harness.
