played an interesting game of bas-
ket ball in Oakland on Tuesday ev-
ening of last week, their opponents
being the Oakland Pee-Wees, and the
final score was 1921 in favor of the
latter. The Accident team has had
but little practice, nevertheless we
are waiting to learn of the date for
the second game when we expect to
even it up with the Pee-Wees.

LONDON. July 12.-Freedom Of

questions are as nothing.
For 100 years England and the
United States have developed with
different viewpoints reGar riding ethics
OF regulating and using the worlds
great trade routes in peacstime or in

Since America has built a great
fleet OF commerce carriers and at
the same time is creating a strong
navy, the question OF cooperation
with England in utilization Of the
Seven Seas has become Of para
mount Importance.
Lloyd's Register shows the fol-
lowing startling comparison be
tween the British pre-war and post
war merchant fleets:
British tonnage 21,o45,O49 2O.5s2 $50
American tonnage 1855 1914 16.O49. 2S9
These figures show Americas rap

shown a disposition TO carefully

provement; Lessened Ac-
tivity in Other Securities

The financial markets were relatively
quiet yesterday, being subject to the
same forces that recently have been
dominant. In contrast to the somewhat
restrained activity and lrregularity in
tho other markets, the uninterrupted
rise. with activic trading in bonds, en-
phasised again the significance Of what
is going on in investment securities
There is more to the strength in
bonds than mere market Improvement
The upturn, which has been marked
since July, represents an attempt on
the part of investors to take advantage
Of the abnormally high money rates
OF the war and post-armistice period,
which are receding to lower levels.
Railroad, industrial, public utility and
government bonds share in the broad
swing Of quotations, and the buyer is
still favoring the higher grade securi
ties. More than s14,o00,ooo Of Liberty
bonds changed owners at the Stock
Exchange yesterday, and gains varied
between 1S and so points.
At the posts in which speculative
securities are bought and sold there
was lessened activity. Despite irregu-
larity and an attempt to depress prices

Petroleum and Baldwin Locomotive,
the trend of quotations was upward
until shortly before the close. Then

The speech Of w. ". Atterbury, vice
president OF the Pennsylvania Rail-
road, to workers, in which he urged
the need of lower freight rates and

railroad prices. Evidently it was used
as the pretext for professional selling
After the rails began to give way
slightly the industrial stocks, too,
started to yield their gains for the day,
and most of the leaders at the close
were selling below the high for the
day. Before the late setback Steel COM
mon sold at 80h, a new high for the
movement. Favorable weekend reports
from the Pittsburgh district, rejecting
a gradual improvement in the trade,
encouraged this buying.
A falling off in speculative demand
caused decline Of IL to 2A cents

citement in the cotton market, and it
closed between 10 and 25 points higher.

that the archduke and the Archduchess

The announcement Of the $5o,o00,-
600 Argentine government loan to-day
comes as something of surprise to
business has been in the air for long
time. 1t was supposed. however, that
the negotiations were off temporarily.
Argentina has been in the market for
a large loan off and on for more than
a year and half. On two or three
occasions the banking groups nego-
tiating at this end thought they had
the business tied up only to have the
deal called off at the last moment. The
group which has finally landed the loan
was active in the negotiations, which
were all but successfully completed in
August. Argentine exchange was
strong yesterday on the news that the
lean had been closed

The Dollar in Foreign Exchange

Absence of demand here caused an
abrupt break in German marks shortly
after the opening of the foreign ex-
change market yesterday when quota
tions dropped to a new low level at
sc of a cent. There was slight rally
before the close, however.
Bankers suggested that the weakness
in marks might have some connection
with reparations payments, but offer
ings were not large here. Polish
marks turned lower, possibly in sym
pathy with the movement in German
exchange, and closed at Ola Of a cent,
a record low level. Polish marks were
quoted in London at 10000 to the
pound sterling, emphasizing the
dwindling purchasing power of Poland
in world markets.
Gable rates on London were slight
ly easier, dropping from $685. to
S3.73b. Continental rates, however,
held fairly steady.

yesterday, will be done if the plan is
