paper rate for the best names to 5lS
per cent and the Offering by skilled
bankers of equipment trust certificates
to the public on the lowest yield basis
since the government took over the
railroads.
The outstanding development in the
investment market last week was the
public offering by various banking
groups Of railroad equipment trust GER
tiiicates. purchased from the War
finance Corporation, on yield basis
OF 5.75 to $50 per cent. The best of
the car trusts-that is to say the obli-
cations of the strongest credit roads
held by the government have been pur-
chased by the bankers for resale to in
vestors. Most of these equipment trust
certificates differ from the standard
equipment trusts in that they were is
sued by the roads dollar for dollar
against the equipment on which they
are a first lien. In other words, there
is no margin between the value of the
equipment securing them and the face
value of the securities. The sale of
these securities by the government is
important in that it will aid the Ad-
mlnlstration in its program for extend
ing financial relief to the railroads.
The significant thing about the offering
of the equipments to investors on less
than a per cent basis is that it
measures the lowering of interest rates.

Developments At the Stock Exchanges
in the last four weeks since the down
ward sweep which carried quotations
precipitately to the lowest levels of
the year have illustrated these prnci-
pies After long period of abstinence
from speculation many individuals have
recently returned to brokerage Offices
to place orders. There has been a
moderate but significant increase in
public interest in the daily fuctua-
tions. Why? Is it because fundamen-
tai economic conditions have suddenly
turned brighter, or because they have
been attracted by the spectacle of rs-
ing prices at the trading center? Prob
ably the latter chiefly, although mo-
tives are mixed and various
The favorable factors in the business
situation, such as the slight mending
in general commerce in many indus
trial cities, the checking Of general
price declines in July and the credit
easement. were discernible for many
days before the upturn in security
prices began. To the man who ra-
tionalizes, these changing conditions
furnish the excuse to acquire stocks.
But in many instances the real cause
for the purchase is mere rising quota
tions.
With four weeks of gain, folk are al
ready inquiring whether we are not
at the foothills of an upward movement
which will last about two years. When
questions take this form the guild of
fortune tellers faces a flourishing pc
riod. The student however, realizes
that movements do not run consistently
in one direction over q long period. In
the market of the near future unques-
tionably there will be significant peri
! DDS Of rallies and reactions. Each day
the market will present special prob
lens which will require individual
diagnosis. And yet all the straws in
industry and finance indicate a definite
passing away from the period of pan
icky fears land paralyzing doubts
Broadly speaking, future changes should
be toward a new equilibrium at better
prices than those which prevailed at
the moments Of greatest depression and
>at lower quotations than the peaks of
the boom period.
The steady gains in bond prices rep
resent more than an Improvement in
the market. They signalize the swift
passing away of the abnormally. high
money rates Of the war ard post-armis-
tice period. They represent hurried
effort on the part Of investors to place
their funds into relatively permanent
issues that will perpetuate over a pc
riod of years extraordinary conditions
which are already beginning to vanish.
Behind the quickening last week of
the impulse to buy bonds at rising
prices, which has persisted since early
July, were these factors: The reduction
in rediscount rates by the Federal Re-
serve Bank Of New York to per cent.
a further piling up of reserves at the
central banks in this country, a reduc-
tion in the open market commercial

Economic conditions in Europe, out

ows and William L. Pryor, of the Blu
reau of Market and Crop Estimates,
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, recently returned from a four
months trip through Europe and
Egypt studying general mar
ket conditions for cotton, especially as
bearing on the prospective demand for
the American product. The depart
Iment's representatives report that the
consumption Of American cotton may
be expected to show considerable in
crease, perhaps 10 to so per cent over
that of last year.
Visits were made to England, Italy,
France, Switzerland, Belgium, Hol-
land, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Po-
land, Germany, the free city of Dan
zig, Czecho-slovakia, Austria and Egg
ypt. In addition, Mr. Meadows also
visited Palestine. At all the cotton
marketing and manufacturing centers
conferences were held with Govern
ment officials, cotton men, bankers
and others and much valuable in
formation concerning conditions af-
fecting American cotton was secured.
The recent advance in the price of
cotton, they say, has greatly relieved
the cotton merchants, spinMrs and
bankers Of Europe as well as Similar
lines of industry in this country. Ac-
cording to the best information OBJ
tainable, the cotton manufacturing
world begins the new season with a
clean slate, there being no large sup
