French Told Treasury

PARIS, Jan. 20. - The condition Of
the French treasury continues "deli
cate,' despite the recent big internal
loan raised in France, M. Doumer, the
new Finance Minister, said in an inter-
view with LIE Journal, in answer to a
query why the government should be
forced to borrow abroad Immediately
after raising the big loan.
"The money raised by the loan had
definite purpose" he said, "and was i'm
medlately absorbed, none Of it being left
free. The situation of our treasury re-
mains thus delicate, and sometimes
ff.ortuitous methods must be adopted

M: Doumer was asked about the pos
sibility of reaching an understanding

however, the effect of further heavv
government Withdrawals from local
banks was reflected in tightening of
credit. The banking opinion generally
is that until the banks have gone much
further in reducing their BORROWINGS
at the Federal Reserve institutions
there can be no complete easing in
money rates.
The explanation for the increase in
:all money rates toward the close of
the week was to be found in the week
ly statement Of the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York, which revealed an
expansion In rediscounts and decline
in reserves. With need for tempo-
rary expansion Of obligations at the
central bank it is clear why member
banks became less inclined to lend
funds at call at low rates. The change
in the money situation was LARGELY due
to the withdrawal of funds by out-of-
town banks, which were repelled by de-
creased rates for money lent at the
Stock Exchange and by the taking Of
deposits from this district by the
United States Treasury.
The abnormal premium of the dollar
over the exchanges of the Old World is
being reduced by the continued inward
swing Of the pound sterling, the franc.
the Ira and the mark. Explanations
for the movement fuctuate with the
vac1llations of quotations in the mar
ketplace, yet the feeling that Europe
will soon be relieved of the uncertaintv
associated with reparations is a factor
making for confidence. By May |, ac

voice that will be made out is helpful
to sentiment. The Cabinet chanres in
France failed to depress exchange
rates on either Paris or Berlin. A
lessened clamor for American goods.
too, is reflected in the recovery OF
the European exchanges, and in the
case of sterling the negotiations which
the British government is carrying on
respecting the funding of its debt to
the United States Treasury tend to
heighten the spirit of traders.
Belgium holds the distinction of be-
ing the first foreign government to
borrow in this market in 1921. The
new $3o,000,0Oo Belgian commitment
may be regarded as the forerunner Of
several large foreign issues in the near
future. The Belgian loan carries the
same per cent coupon rate which
made foreign loans attractive to Ameri-
can investors in the latter half of 1920.

GOV. LEN SMALL,
ASSAILED BY POLIT-
ICAL ENEMIES

There has been great deal of
newspaper talk and political
bunk, as to the Indictment, ar
rest and prosecution Gov. Len
Small. Most of this dope" if
not all was sensational in the eX-
treme, for the purpose of selling
the papers and embarrass the
Governor and cripple his admin
istration in carrying out his pre-
election pledges made to the peo-
pie in relieving the poor tax pay
ers against the money barons
and the rich tax dodgers of Chi
cago. He promised in his plat
form both in the primary and
the general election last fall to
give them a square deal if elect
ed. the people believed him then,
and gave him one of the largest
majorities ever received by any
Governor of Illinois. The Trib-
une fought him then, fought him
from every angle during the ses-
sion of the legislature, and is still
fighting him. He was prevented
from having many of his meas
.ures enacted into law by his po-
litical foes through the advice of
the Tribune and gigantic orpora-
tions of Chicago, yet with all the
fight that was put against him,
Gov. Small. stood like a Stone
Wall" and to the common people
of Iliinios several millions Of dol
lars in turning down the Ce-
ment Trust, and 81, 600, 600 by
his veto power. and prevented
the treasury Of Illinois from be.
ing looted by the enemies Of the
people and the Governor.
The people had faith in Gov.
Small, when he was elected and
they still have that faith in his
honesty, truthfulness and his
sense of duty and fairness to all
the people. The court of public
opinion is with him,
We can readily see that Attor-
ey General Brundage, is sore be-
cause the Governor cut down his
appropriation of 81, sos, 700 to
$6l6, 100 and thus preventing
him from building up a vast po-
litical machine. Let's have fair
play in the political arena is all
asked by the people.
The Chicago Tribune has at
tempted to kill every man polit-
ically who they could not control.
They have tried to kill Big
Bill Thompson, and drive him
out of politics, but like banco's
ghost, he viii rot down, but is a
thorn in their political side. The
people are with him.
