Editor.
NEW YORK, March s.-The early
trading on the stock market today
was a listless affair and devoid of
feature. Dealings were smaller than
in long time.
Traders seemed to be unwilling to
take q more active part in the trad
ing until the next development in the
foreign political situation. The for
eign exchanges, after their declines
yesterday, showed an improved tone
today. demand sterling recovering
over one cent
confined in most cases to fractions
Although a few issues made advances,
the bulk of the changes were to lower
levels.
The business today was divided into
two classes. One was the buying for
cash of many issues by conservative
traders for investment purposes.
The second was selling for short ac-
counts by many professional plungers
who were anxious for quick profits
Under this selling a few issues were
any sign of unsettlement in the rest
Of the list
United Fruit, Canadian Pacific,
General Motors, American Smelting,
and Chile Copper were the stocks sim
gled out for pressure, and, although
these issues sustained losses ranging
up to 2 points. part of the decline was
recovered after midday.

CONFIDENCE RETURNS.

Since the middle Of December. MI.
Walsh says confidence has gradually
come back. Mills have opened and
are opening in the far east OF the
United States and a general feeling
of optimism was evident in all the
larger cities.
Industrial wages, he says. were
reduced as much as 22h per cent
but he found that labor was recon-
ciled in view of the fact that a bal
ance must be struck and when a gem
eral disposition to reduce prices on
all goods was shown. Mr.. Walsh

trade, in necessaries as we'll as lux

Really the depression feeling was

upgrade now" he ventures. In his
opinion there may be another slight
depression before the fall crops are
harvested, but after that good times
will be permanent.

Walsh, from observation and from
talking to men representing all lines
and most Of whom I meet on trains.
or course these travellers are in
touch with all lines and trade condi-

He suggested that the newspapers
make an effort to play up the optim-
istic side of business conditions rather
than the pessimistic, for he holds, the
trend Is from the latter.

LOANS easier,

The outlook is for good crops, he
believes, and this. he says, always
has an effect for the better. He
has noticed in his travels. he says
that banks are "easier" on loans than
they were n short time ago and that
the "tightwad" invester is passing
out, which, to him, means a general
lessening OF the financial situation.
His travels, he-says. show him that
the general public is turning to bond
and other investments which he looks
upon as a good sign.
Before January 1, he says. the
people did not know what the future
held. This caused a vast fall off in
buying, but this has changed now, he
says, and stocks OF merchandise are
being reduced, thus causing mer-
chants to be more confident
However. 1t is unsafe to look for
full employment and prosperity at the
present time" he observes, "but this
will come with the balancing of the
Industrial situation and condition.

Although the project has the Off

bankers of the country are not sub
scribing to the stock as II was ex-
pected that they would.
Vigorous work is now being ac-
complished IN various parts of the
country by those In charge of the
promotion of the corporation, and
they confidently expect that surpris-
ing strides will be made shortly.

SPENT TOO FAST.

One trouble was, says Mr.. Walsh.
in the days of wartime wages. we
spent 1t almost as fast as IL came.
The result was inevitable.
Along this line. he says. II was
noticeable that much of the high war
wage was paid to towns where there
was not a diversified field OF industry.
His travels in Canada, Mr.. Walsh
says have shown him that around
Toronto. Montreal and other cities
are conditions and situations similar
to those in the United States. especi-
ally in trade. But, he adds, this
apparent feeling of depression Is
gradually giving away there, too.

Along this line. he points to Lynn.

he passed. He says strikes are being

be general readjustment Mr..
Walsh remarked upon the apparent
fairness of labor in aiding in these
readjustments.
