Financial Review
By ERIC ko55E Of Blyth, Witter = So.
crops. Money and Bond

Crops, Money and Bonds
 The bulk of the crop movement is not yet financed and will not be until about the middle of December. This fact makes it possible that during this time the money market may again tighten up enough to stop the upward movement of bond prices; hence a temporary readjustment to lower levels for monetary reasons may be considered within the range of possl- bilities, although we consider that such a change is hardly probability.
 Looking at the situation from a broad viewpoint it is not very impor- tant to the bond market whether money becomes tight this fall or not, or whether this will cause bond prices to go slightly lower or not, as 1t Will surely be only a temporary condition. Granting that we do have tight money period between now and Dec 15, the completion of the crop move ment. taken together with the fall in commodity and goods prices, indicate without reasonable doubt sharp drop in interest rates between the middle oi December and the middle Of February
 The gross burden on the money mar kets of the country will average aDou' 10 per cent lighter in February than in october. due to crop financing. This financing of crops and farm products worth some twenty billions of dollars is a real task and its completion marks the release of an immense amount ol liquid capital. Interest rates may drop very suddenly when funds, re- leased from crop movement uses and from high priced merchandise hqui- dated, enter the call money market.
 Due to low prices the farmers so fai this year have been very slow in put ting their products on the market ano this fact renders financing compara- lively easy Should this condition con tinue throughout the crop marketlne time or for the next two months, tho money market will be in an almost i'm pregnable position.

PROBE INTO CONDUCT

PORT AU PRINCE. Dec. Find
ing witnesses actually involved In re-
ported indiscriminate killing OF nat
ives, and others with first-hand knowl
edge of misconduct on the part OF the
American army of occupation was a
task which considerably delayed the
naval board, Investigating charges
against American marines in Haiti,
during the first week of its stay at
Port au Prince. III
- Major Jesse F. Dyer. Judge advocate,
admitted that 1t was a difficult job.
Many persons, who professed to have
information came forward to be ques-
toned, but it soon developed, 1t was
said. that most of their testimony was
hearsay, which, OF course, was ex-
cluded. In the hope OF speeding up the
proceedings, Major Dyer made a trip
by airplane to interior points to inter
view natives and marines, many OF
whom were summoned here. Travel
across the mountains is slow and ted
ious, however, and sessions of the
court were held UP until they could
arrive
Review Campaign
Meanwhile, Rear Admiral Henry T.
Mayo indicated that the court would
be extremely patient, as members
realized that the Judge advocate came
here without opportunity before hand
of working up his case. Only two
witnesses were examined during the
first week, Major Thomas c. Turner,
chief OF staff, and President Dartfgue-
nave. of Haiti. It was by the test-
tmony Of Major Turner that the court
developed the fact that since the in
ftensive campaign against bandits was
begun IN October, 1919, q total Of 1882
natives had been killed in actual COM
hat. This number met death. accord
ling to Major Turner. in 29S engage
ments.
How many wer6Hnedf from the time
the marines came in until October last
year could only be determined by a
careful inspection OF records, largely
incomplete, and now I'm Washington,
the witness explained. although he
added that Brigadier General Barnett's
estimate Of $3.50 was undoubtedly ex-
taggerated."
President Dartiguenave, in talk
the other day with correspondents.
qualified his statement to the court
that the marines had been accused
"by public clamor." He explained
that they had been accused by rumors
and reports, and that in each case eff
forts were made to investigate. The
translation was given as "clamor", but
the official text was corrected to "ru-
NOR" AS witness the president was
unable to en1ighten the court as to
the truth OF many charges against the
military forces. ,ss.z5.s1s.z
About the most that the court may
be able to recommend is trial by
courtmartial of possibly half a dozen
marines. It's observations" were re-
quested and may prove of value, but
primarily it was sent here to ascertain
what truth there is in charges that
men guilty of violence and brutality
toward natives were never brought to
trial.

MEXICAN BORDER IS WET

John Edwin Hogg, in the Popular Me chanics Magazine.
 57F one is thirsty and takes trip to the Pacific coast. it is only neces- S ,sary to buy a ticket over the newest of our transcontinental railroads-and ride in buffet car part of the way Then, too the train makes stops at con- venient points along the route where passengers may step off and put one foot on a brass rail to exchange Ameri- can money for any sort of wet goods to be found in a well-stocked American cellar. This railroad dips into Mexico l in two different places, and the buffet car, which travels in bond through the United States, is open for business as | soon as the southern boundary is passed. Of course. bringing liquor out of Mex | ico for future use in the United States i is contrary to law, but Americans who | are thirsty are likewise ingenious. A | favorite passengers method that has | thus far defied the vigilance of the fed- eral authorities is that of railroading the stuff with the aid of Mexican accom- plice. There are usually a lot of pow erty-stricken poons hanging around the Mexican railroad stations to whom Un- cle Sam's dollars talk with a loud voice. As the train is about to start he hangs d jug or bottle inside the trucks of a l Pullman car, or otherwise conceals it about the train. Later when the train stops at some way station in the United States, perhaps well over into Arizona or Texas, and far from the gaze of bor- der officials, the passenger steps out. He knows where to look for the jug, and
 then little party is put on in the Pull
 man smoker. Then. too, pints and half pints fit very nicely into Pullman car water coolers, ventilators, and other nu-
 merous hiding places about the average l ltranscontinental train, and even if a cus- tom officer happens to find them it is
 rather difficult to say just who put them

No Place to 'Put Them

"One reason why Birmingham mas not 100000 people within the city nm its is because she has no place to put them,' says J. H. Daniels. There has been very little building in the last decade, less perhaps than in any other decade in the history of Birmingham There was good bit between 1910 and 1914. about normal during those four years but during the war no houses were erected, for our energies were elsewhere and material was high.
 war over, we began to feel the pinch of housing shortage, but little building has been done, both because of the expensive material and the fact that there is little credit for the home builder. The question that will readily stop the person who thinks Birming- ham has not been given square deal in the last census is, If Birmingham has grown 7o,oo0 in the last ten years where has she put them?'"

there. That hot water bottles and ice
 bags are also handy prohibition-dodging
 containers is indicated by the fact that
 druggists in the border towns declare
 they are no longer able to keep this kind
 of goods in stock.
 Prohibition is the least of the worries of Americans living along the Mexican border.
 An American has but to sally up to one of the fences that separate the United States and Mexico. The government has
 the line at all the ports of entry. but they do not completely close the border by any means. A Mexican on the look out for this kind of business, produces the desired -bottle holds it close to the fence and hands the American a straw. The straw is again passed through the fence. but this time the end that is in Mexico goes into the neck of the bottle.
 and the end that is in the United States goes into the Americans mouth. The | rules of the game are that the Ameri- can exhales before going into action then he shuts his eyes and sucks ,fp I as much liquor as he is able to swal- l low without taking another breath For
 sanitary reasons many Americans carry their own rubber tubes for this form of
 prohibition lodging. but the Mexicans limit the size that may be used to one
 eighth of an inch interior diameter | The Mexicans also sell eggs through
 the International fence. and several
 grown-up men standing on the American | side suck them. As a matter of fact. the eggs are only shells, the contents
 of which have been removed and re-
 placed with whisky, gin. wine, or other
 varieties of alcoholic cheer The egg
 shells, after being filled with liquor, are
 sealed with paraffin, and the dry cus-
 toner after buying one has only to pick off the seal and help himself to the uhirst-Quenching contents
