Labor leaders will also do well to

HIGH AUTHORITY SPEAKS.

A very high authority. in a posi-
ton to digest in detail what is go
ing on among the banks throughout
the country, makes this statement to
me: Throughout the greater part of
the country bankers have shown and
are still showing cowardice. They
could draw upon the Federal Reserve
banks for every necessary accommo-
dalton in order to relieve conditions
In their districts, but most of them
are not doing 30. They are looking
too much simply to their own con-
dltion and are not giving enough con-
sideration to the condition of the
people they should serve" And this
authority Is noted for his ultra-con-
servatism.
In previous articles the roll of ia
vorable fundamental factors has
been called and commented upon.
These factors, almost without excep-
ton, continue to gain in strength
There is danger, however, that they
may not be awaited of as promptly
and decisively as desirable, and that
IL procrastination and timidity and
shortsightedness are persisted in
much longer the outlook will become
less inspiring.
Although the Wall Street bears con-
tinue to operate with some success
because of dividend omissions and re-
auctions and lack OF aggressive alb
sorption of stocks by the public In
dicat ions increase that a day of reck-
oning is approaching.
Investors need not hesitate to pur-
chase Trustworthy securities at the
low prices now current no matter
how much temporary irregularity the

DOHEBTY TO ADDRESS BANKERS.
"Present-Day Problems" is theltopic
which Henry L. Doherty. head of the
Cities Service Corporations, will dis
cuss before the annual convention of
the District Bankers Association at
White Sulphur Springs, w. Va, June
IL to Is, according to announcement
made today.
AS the network of corporations
which Mr.. Doherty directs is nation
wide, it is expected that his address
viii be closely followed.
with the definite acceptance of Mr..
Doherty. the program for the bust
ness sessions Is now complete, and its
publication awaits only the formal
approval by the general committee at
the meeting which Chairman George
q Watson has called for this after
room at the rooms of the Washington
Stock Exchange.
w. w. Spaid, chairman of the enter
tainment committee, and his subcom-
mittee chairmen have likewise per-
fected their plans.

vations already made and those in
sight assure an attendance of at least
zoo from Washington alone. This
number should be largely augmented

SOUTHERN RAILWAY FINANCING.
The Southern Railway has been
authorized by the Commerce Com
mission to pledge and repledge all
or part OF s7,29e,oo development and
general mortgage per cent bonds
as security for notes which 1t may
hereafter issue.
As the result of the withdra wal
by the Southern Railway of it's ap-
plicatiop for a loan of s3,S25, 900 from
tho United States, the commission
has cancelled its authorization OF the
company to pledge s5.s00.o00 of the
same class OF bonds with the Secre-
tary of the Treasury.
The inference is that the company
has decided to borrow privately on
1t snotes instead of obtaining a loan
from the revolving Improvement
fund
The Washington times., 1921-06-06
THE TINE HAS COME

The time has come, i am firmly
convinced. when bankers should con-
Germ themselves less about piling up
additional monetary resources and
concern themselves more about how
they can put their shoulders to the
to stimulate business and. OF even
more moment provide work for those
who have been suffering from en-
forced idleness for six months or
whereabouts.
Had corporation directors full ap-
probation of the hardship and the
danger arising from the present heart
breaking unemployment rather
think fewer dividends would be passed
entirely and fewer reduced, for such
depressing action merely tends to sfy-
gravate pessimism and depression.
and should not be taken at time like
the present except as a last, desper-
ate resort to maintain solvency.
Executives. too, would perhaps
pause a little longer before dismiss
ing workers by the wholesale IL a
broad, long-sighted view were taken
OF the situation and the outlook.
Institutions having money to lend
for building and such like activities
would also be inclined to open their
purse-strings a little more freely
were they to give due thought to
the human element of the problem,
steadily becoming more serious,
and less thought to exacting avari-
cious interest rates, Commissions"

LEADERS, TAKE NOTICE!
It Is time, too. that the most In
fiuential leaders in industries still

auctions made In automobiles have
