Lots OF Money, but It's Paper.

The heavy subscriptions TO the new
capital do. however. show a notable
plentitude of money, even II IL Is only
paper money, the result of exceptional
circumstances In the last few years. cir
cumstances which have permitted gains
unheard of for Italy. and which have
had the result OF exercising on the
thrifty person an irresistible II illusory
attra ction. For the existing companies
an increase in capital was an absolute
necessity IL they were to continue their
activities
In n certain number of cases increases
In capital were necessitated by unwfse
speculation. when fresh money was re-
quired TO cover up bad gaps In the bal
ance sheets. Numerous cases occurred
and are still occurring. In which large
stocks OF bonus shares. representing war
profits. have been handed over to the
shareholders, thus avoiding that the net
profits should be out Of proportion to
the capital and much above the ordi-
nary interest. 1t Is to be noted that on
various occasions the labor troubles
have bec~ caused by this fact, the
working class contending that this adj.
ditional profit was Illicit and should go
to them
IL has naturally been to the advan-
tage OF the credit banks TO encourage IN
every way this development OF limited
liability companies in Italy, not only
because the banks draw lucrative
profits from their flotation, hut for ma
tional. political and economic reasons.
The result has been that the italian ma
tion has been bitten by bug" which,
N things do. not go well. may have
serious repercussion. For the average
Italian to invest In anything but Gov
ernment or savings bonds was a COM
parative rarity. To-day he has drunk
OF the cup of success he has seen how
the big Industries work. and how many
huge fortunes have been made on the
Bourse. and he thinks he can do the
same. This IL one reason for the call
that Italy must be made an Industrial
country.
The largest share In the new capital
Is aiken by the hanks and credit insttu-
tons, which absorbed 900,fy4,i0o lire in
the past. and they had in the period OF
l9t5-19f9 already absorbed S63, 900. 900
lire. The metallurgical and mechanical
companies were responsible for 60l,-
100000. which. although 80 per cent.
more than in 1918. was considerably
below the figure for 1919. when no less
than miiliard OF lire was subscribed,
,his being largely due 10 the impetus
given 20 the Ansaldo Company which az
that time was completing les prepara-
tlons for dominating these industries

Special Correspondence TO THE NEW YORK
HERALD.
ROME, May 22.-Closely connected
with the work of credit banks is the
development of the commercial compa-
MES in italy. where boom has o.
CURED similar to that which swept
England in 1919 and 1920, and with
much the same results. The total
amount of new capital subscribed in
1920 was 4,S34.5OO 900 lire, of which
$500 060, 900 lire was for increasing the
capital of existing concerns. Over a
thousand new companies were, how
ever, formed, with an initial paid up
capital of 1,500,000,000 lire. These
figures are double those for 1919 and
total more than the figures for the
four years in which Italy was at war,
when the sums asked for the indus
trial companies were considered enor-
NOUS.
In spite of the heavy depreciation
of money, especially since the war,
this great influx of new capital for
commercial and industrial develop
ment must be seriously considered as
social factor. A considerable portion
of this new capital has been used In
the Transformation and retransforma-
ton Of plant and shops from the war
standard to peace standard, while the
ever increasing rise In wages has re-
quired larger circulating capital. 1t is
therefore impossible to draw from
these figures any conclusive index as
to the effective producing power OF the
nation. the more so as a good many
of the new companies are likely to
have only an ephemeral existence.
