HARVEY TALK
COMMENDED
IN ENGLAND
London Newspapers Welcome
Frankness and Friendship
Envoy Declares America
Will Avoid League.
EXPLAINS j. s. STAND
fBy Associated PressS

LONDON, May 20.-Newspapers Of
this city featured this morning the
address made -lst night by George
Harvey, the United States ambassador
to Great Britain at a dinner given by
the Pilgrims.
Announcement was made by Mr..
Harvey that he had been directed by
the state department in Washington
to represent America at the proposed
meeting of the Supreme Council at
which the Silesian question is to be
considered, and he declared that the
United States under no possible cir
cumstances could be led into partici-
patton in the League of Nations.
Only two or three newspapers com
mented editorially on the American
ambassadors speech apparently be-
cause of the late hour at which Mr..
Harvey spoke Those journals cor
daily welcomed the ambassadors ex
pressions of friendship and his frank
ness, and commended his address in
general. The Daily News, however,
declared itself perplexed by Amer
icas reputation of the League of Ma
tions, that newspaper having been a
wholehearted champion of the league.
1t inferred from Mr.. Harvey's address
that the United States actually agrees
with the objects of the league, but it
exclaimed:
Claim Discrepancy
"Yet the United States will have
nothing to do with the greatest organ
ization ever created for the fulfillment
of the leagues highest purposes. and
this is not because America disap-
proves of any one of the objects of
the league. but because her people a
1 hn 1oc i've ut O
against the party of one of the
leagues chief founders. Is this policy
or politics. If the latter. is it domes-
tic politics or International"
The Chronicle remarked: Nobody
here has any desire to prescribe the
channels in which Americas good will
may flow. and just us we gave Mr..
Wilson straightforward cooperation
,, in founding the league, so we will c.
operate in the same spirit with Mr..
| Harding outside the league"
Welcome Pronouncement.

cially the Ambassadors pronounce

sive sham"

Profit Taking
Depr~ssesPric
OF Securities
Motor Shares, However, Rise
on Reports of Resump-
ton of Plants and Expec-
tation of Seasonal Gains

The coming of spring failed to clar-
ify the speculative atmosphere, and the
same perverse, contradictory factors
which were dominant last week swayed
the course Of fluctuations yesterday.
Despite signs of easier money in the
lowest renewal rate for call funds
since January 90 and a further i'm
provement in the reserve position of
the Federal Reserve system, the trend
of security prices was toward lower
levels
The explanation for the slump can
not be found in the news of the day,
especially that part which related to
credit. The movement yesterday in a
market Of diminished activity was due
to the working Of internal, speculative
factors associated with the technique
OF the market place. In the rise that
took place last week, despite irregular
cross currents, apparently significant
short interest was eliminated. More
over, new speculative long interest
was created, and, after the firm open
ing yesterday. found itself in a posi-
ton to take profits.
Fairly persistent selling pressure
was directed against most groups of
stocks up to the close. The motor
shares were a conspicuous exception,
and, on reports of resumption of plants
and hopes of an improved buying de-
lnand of seasonal nature, the shares
C. automobile and accessory compa-
riea moved upward. Unquestionably,
this industry is revealing symptoms of
recovery. Some observers, however,
feel that the upward surge will not
gsir full momentum until present
price guarantees expire. Most of them,
Il is said, run out by July.
In the decline of the other shares
there is little that is significant. The
market was again very largely in con-
troll of professional spectators, who in
this present period of dullness are sat-
isfied with quick and narrow profits
The professionals serve not only to
keep up the continuity of quotation
while the outside public is adamant
but also test out in innumerable trades
the possibility of price movements at
time of marked certainty. In COM
mission houses some disappointment
has been expressed over the fact that
the spectacle of rising prices last week
failed to attract more outsiders to the
market place. Perhaps the brokers in
their anxiety for business forget that
it requires more than few days Of
slightly higher prices in professional
market to stir the speculative imagi-
nation of the public, once it has be-
come sluggish.
New-York tribune., 1921-03-22
Italian Exchange Weak

Exchange on Italy underwent a
marked reversal of form yesterday and
lire rates, in sharp contrast to the pro-
nounced recovery of last week, suffered
severe decline from 400 cents
to 3S51a cents for checks. In the ab-
sence of news developments that would
account for the setback in lire ex-
change bankers called it natural re-
action" Some observers of exchange
market conditions saw a connection be-
tween the striking strength of Italian
exchange last week with the Paris re-
ports that Germany had drawn down
her balances in France to avoid pos
sible seizure by the Allies. 1t was
finted that some .os these balances had
been transferred % Italy, where senti-
ment is somewhat more friendly to
Germany. Such an operation would
have entailed the purchase of lire and
the sale of French francs. If this were
the case the weakness of lire yesterday
would suggest that German operations
in lire exchange had been completed.

Endicott Johnson

Endicott Johnson was one of the
strong, spots in an irregular market
yesterday. advancing from a low of
GIN to a high of 64A, and closing at
63, up 1s points. In an optimistic
interview Vice-President Endicott of
the company told of an increased
inflow of new orders which helped
to stimulate buying of the stock,
There is no question: he said, that
we are steadily approaching better
times. The last week has been the
largest week of orders we have had
tins Wear. The very nature of the
orders. which give close considera-
tion to details of sizes and cover a
broad range of styles, must indicate
that retailers are getting to the point
where there are no surplus stocks
and they are buying simply to fiji
their Immediate needs. This should
mean steady and increasing demand
for merchandise. Our factories and
tanneries are running nearly up to
capacity and the new factory we started
month ago is increasing it's produc-
tion each week"

Deny Italian Loan Renorts

Flnanciers conversant with invest
ment market conditions and Italy's pro
gram did not credit reports from Lon
don yesterday that the Italian govern
ment plans to float dollar loan in
the United States Italy. it was said
might undertake to sell some internal
bonds to her nationals here. but IL
was not believed any effort would be
made to undertake dollar fiotation
In fact, leading international banker
went on record as saying that he did
not think any foreign government
would try to arrange an American loan
at this time. A deterrent factor in
addition to the fatness of the invest
ment market here is the unsettled Eu-
ropean situation, which has adversely
affected many of the recent European
hotations.
