INVESTMENT OF CAPITAL ABROAD
 BEING DELAYED
Non Ratification of Treaty Blamed By Commerce
 Secretary Alexander.

New York, Jan. 14-Investment of American capital in foreign countries is being delayed by the failure of the United States to ratify the peace trea- ty, Secretary of Commerce Alexander declared today in an address to the American Manufacturers Export as- sociation. ''If the peace treaty were ratified and the League of Nations in operation," he said, American in- vestors would have greater con1- dence in putting their money into for eign securities.''
 Regretting that the peace treaty should be made the subject of po1iti. cal debate at a time when Europe's need for political and economic sta- bilization is acute, the secretary said 'the United States has assumed moral obligation in foreign affairs which cannot be ignored.'' The fu- ture of American industry and com. merce depends more than ever before upon participation in foreign coun. tries. he added.
 No immediate solution of the prob lem of European credits is in sight Mir. Alexander asserted, but financial aid for the reconstruction of European countries must be extended by pri- vate American investors and not by the government.
 ''The government cannot add to the heavy burden of taxation to give large assistance to other countries,'' he said 1Such assistance as the United States gives must be on a business basis"
 Because of the limited amount of capital available in Europe the United States must be prepared to finance large part of the development of the resources and industries of the Latin American republics MT. Alexander pointed out. But investments in Latin America should be confined to enter prises that will in the shortest time produce commodities most in demand in the world at present, he stated.
 As examples of enterprises best suit able for the investment of American capital, MT. Alexander suggested the extension of railroads in the republic of Honduras which would open up large areas of cattle producing coun- try. A railroad from Lake Nicaragua to the Atlantic coast would develop rich districts in both Nicaragua and Salvador, he said, and extension of railroads in Southern Brazil into the state of Matto Crosse would open up an area twice as large as Texas, cap able of supporting immense herds of cattle.
 Predicting an easing of the foreign exchange situation because of the marked tendency in recent months to- wards increasing the imports into the United States, the secretary asserted, that although viewed with alarm in some quarters, larger imports may, especially in so far as they tend to relieve the foreign exchange situation, have beneficial effect upon our foreign trade as a whole"

NEW YORK. May 26-The stock market made only indifferent progress towards further recovery today al though developments dealing with if
 nancial conditions contributed to better feeling. Trading covered a wider range, but there were no indications of public interest.
 Contrary to expectations in many quarters, the call money market re- mained fixed at six per cent while re- newals of time loans soon to expire were negotiated at S14 to S1s per cent a slight concession from recent rates.
 Domestic considerations were over shadowed by the activity of foreign exchange, with heavy purchases of re- mittances to central Europe. Trading
 in these bills was said to be larger than at any time since the close of the
 war.
 German bills or marks rose to 3.15.
 Austrian kronen also made noteworthy improvement and Italian exchange ex- pressed in terms of the American dol lar, gained over a lire. Speculation based largely on trade rehabilitation of those countries is believed to be an important factor in their sustained ad- vance.
 According to competent observers slow progress is being made in relief from freight congestion.
