Paris, Aug. 20.
Increasing signs OF slowly returning
confidence were displayed in nnanclai
circles last week, with new capital ap-
pearing in larger quantities and activity
shown in securities long dormant. New
speculation in Russian industrials is at
tracing wider attention, Lenine's recent
declarations having greatly stimulated
the movement which is only one of the
symptoms of new current of optiln-
ism pervading the Bourse.
Financial circles have for the present
discarded Silesia as a factor and politi-
cally are more under the influence of the
Loucheur- -Rathenau negotiations in
Weisbaden. Whatever the feelings of
some politicians regarding these nego-
tations, apparently they have the
support of the business interests which
desire an economic understanding be-
tween France and Germany and are not
hostile to Germany paying in materials,
providing this can be worked out on an
equitable basis.
The amount suggested for payment In
materials-7, 900, 100000 gold marks
means a more rapid reconstruction OF
the devastated regions whose demands
French industry is unable to supply
quickly. thus retarding the work.
The widening interest seen on the
Bourse here extended to Government
securities. particularly 6 per cent. treas
uries, and also shares OF French chem
ical companies and maritime companies.
The latter are believed to be on the eve
OF doing better business, the French
Translantic Line having announced a
new line from Hamburg to San Fran
cisco via the Panama Canal.
Trade figures Just published for seven
months show a favorable trade balance
amounting to 500.oO0,000 francs. The
great decrease In irnportations, however,
Is due in a measure to the stagnant
state of many French industries, caused
by the slow progress Of the wage re-
duction movement, which is beginning to
provoke strikes and much labor un-
rest.

Roads Improve Condition.

Take the railroad situation. The re-
duction Of expenses which began TO
bring down the ratio of operating costs
to gross earnings in June. resulting n
net operating income three ind three
quarters times the amount earned IN
June, 1920. had even greater effect
in July. II Is stimulating to find that
the New York Central system cut It's
operating outlay in July to 40.S per
cent. less than that OF July, 1870. There
Is satisfaction in the fact that that
property was able, through economies.
to convert large deficit in July. l9so
into net operating profit of S.i6e,oco
this year. The Pennsylvania's report
that. through reduced costs, 10 per
cent. decline or gross revenue was con-
verted into a net income eight times
that OF July. 1890. shows that the roads
are getting something out Of the L per
from their own efforts TO save money
Other roads are reporting results as
significant as those OF the lines men
tened here. But the railroad situation
is not to be pictured solely through the
major items OF monthly income ac-
counts.
There Is no question but what the fall
of costs Of many railroads in June and
July was at the expense OF property.
The roads spent less than they should
have done (and would have done with
a larger volums Of traffic. on equip
ment and roadbed. Consequently 1t is
certain that. with a growth of tonnage,
the maintenance accounts will tend to
grow instead or falling further. AS
traffic expands, the payrolls will en-
large also. 1t Is worth remembering
these things because by doing SO one
will not be disappointed later when
operating expenscs rise again. and It
is quite possible that ths outlay VIII
proceed ahead OF the expansion OF
gross receipts. especially II certain
freight rates were 10 be lowered little
