Financing Exports.

That strain on the American markets
was not surprising when it Is realized
that the United States possessed the
only gold reserve large enough 10
finance the demands of crippled Europe
and the extraordinary requirements OF
American trade and finance. Most of
those outlays had to be made at the
highest price level ever known. because
supplies which Europe needed were
quoted for prices which in ordinary
times would have forced her to have
purchased elsewhere. The heavy buy
ing for foreign government account was
financed. however. through the largest
sales OF foreign government and for
eign municipal securities ever made in
the United States. Those borrowings
reached extraordinary proportions, ami
for the most part We're admirably
handled. the great issuing banking
houses exercising unusual care to pro-
tect our markets from congestion or
the complications which would cause
repetition of the rich mems panic OF
1903.
Huge as those foreign bond offerings
were. the American bankers could have
purchased fully ten times the volume
of bonds that they placed here. had
they been willing TO accept the hun
dreds of other applications which
poured in from every quarter of the
globe Great care. however, was exer-
cised not 10 overload the market here,

COUNTRY ON SAFER BASIS
BY WILLIAM JusTus poIEs.

If the financial markets ever were
in a more interesting state at tho
close of a trying year the oldest Wall
Street habitue cannot recall it. The
year just closed will be remembered
chiefly for it's constant credit strain,
which, at times, became so serious as
TO threaten a money market disturb
ance of first magnitude, which unques-
tionably would have developed but for
the splendid safeguards of the Reserve
system. The 1920 money market. con-
sidering all classes Of loans, probably
averaged higher rates than had that
of any other twelve months in peace
times. In the United States, as in
Europe, it was the overshadowing fac
tor because the credit strain was such
as to force the Reserve Board to put
the country under a system of rational
credit during the greater part of the
year, which caused irritation In some
quarters. But those ~ touch with the
facts of that extraordinary year know
now that those measures were neces-
sary and that the supervision for the
most part was highly intelligent, con-
structive, and saved the December
markets from a terrific smash.
The New York herald., 1921-01-03
Credit Restrictions.

A restricted credit policy for the
United States of 1920 was just as neces-
sary as was the effort to curtail food
consumption during the war. II limit
ing food consumption was necessary to
help the nation win the war in 1917
properly regulated credit service. which
financed productive industry ahead OF
everything else. was necessary to save
her from a succession of Black Fridays
in 1920. The worldwide strain on credits
was greater than the banks of this
country or of any other country ever
experienced before throughout so great
an area and during so long time.

More Foreign Loans.

Tho probability IS that the American
Investing public win continue 60 be largo

enormous notations OF 1920 and tho sat

The New York herald., 1921-01-03
As to Speculation.

The year saw drastic declines in secur-
lty prices. many active shares being
quoted at its close around low levels.
That stagnation much OF the time was
due TO inadequate supply OF money
available for Stock Exchange borrowers,
as banks greatly curtailed such accom-
mediation at the request of the Reserve
Board. which on successive occasions
advised reserve banks not to rediscount
paper the proceeds of which was to be
used for speculative or nonpfoductive
purposes. The markets were depressed
at various times by large sales of Ameri-
con securities accumulated abroad dur
ing the war by committees of foreign
governments. There was also selling by
other foreign holders, the high premiums
commanded by dollar credits offering an
unusual lnducement for such operations.
The markets withstood that operation
very well considering the extent of the
movement and the heavily reduced buy
ing power here. There was scarcely
any speculative initiative manifested by
the outside public, which kept out Of the
market most of the time and rarely
made itself felt except on the ceiling
side. That stagnation was reflected by
the estimated reduction TO $3.50, 900, 000
in the volume OF speculative loans Sc
cured by Wall Street collateral In con-
trast to a high level OF s1.750. 900 900 OF
bank credit so used at the height Of the
speculative movement IN 1919.

The New Year.

Now is not G time for pessimism. as
the situation In many respects Is much
stronger than IL was at the beginning
OF 1920. when everybody was feeling
hopeful and the stock market was sell
ing at q much higher price level Average
prices for Industrial stocks were In some
cases less than Is points below the high
est level ever reached, and the spccula-
tive public saw nothing but blue sky and
sunshine ahead. All this has changed.
and In many quarters n spirit OF pessim-
ism prevails. which, however, Is not war
ranted by basic conditions and the
extraordinary defation accomplished.
The coming year promises continued
readjustments IN many lines. but the
outstanding fact is that tho evils oc war
imitation have been pretty well elim-
mated. that high grade securities arc
selling at bargain level judged by the
standards Of ordinary years and that
the whole world is preparing for a grad
ual abandonment Of war activities. This
country II going strong: there are bet
ter times ahead and American industry
may be expected 20 give good account
of itself during the coming twelve
mouths

Marketing Foreign Bonds.

The bankers showed great wisdom
in feeding the market with only as many
securities as IL would take and in de-
clininS to put out more notes or bonds
than the public applied for To assure
absorption by bonafide investors many
bond houses made use OF Liberty loan

In safe foreign securities offered at
prices 20 yield from 7 to Sh per cent.
Those terms were extraordinary and ex-
cited great interest But Il was soon
found that discriminating investors

on a nat per cent basis. The mar

novel and generally well planned and
provided huge credits with which for

purchases OF raw material, merchandise
and other products OF this country.

Of those loans II would have been in-
possible for the European nations TO
have paid for the enormous volume OF
exports from the United States. IL Is
estimated that about i.500. 100000 OF
foreign Government loans and obliga-
tions given by various borrowers IN
other countries were placed In the
United states. and the adroitness. skill
and extraordinary success Of the UNDER
takings was n tribute TO the ingenuity
and resourcefulness OF the various
American banking houses Interested in
these operations. Nothing like 1t was
seen before. But the movement has
been Of great Importance In internation-
alizing the American bond market and
teaching our investors 10 interest them

Improvement at the Close.

The year ended with the credit strain
materially relaxed and the country do ng
business on q price basis SO reduced as
to make Il materially easier for the
banks to finance the demands of day TO
day trade With a drop of 33 per cent.
in average commodity prices from the
years high level and the average price
OF prom .nent industrial shares selling at
virtually the lowest basis touched fo-
five years and some of the best known
railroad stocks quoted close to the low
level for 1920, 1t takes everywhere much
less bank credit TO finance trade ana
industry az the opening of 1921 than
IL took twelve months ago, which means
that every 81 100000 of borrowed money
to-day will do the work which required
Si.300,000 to do year ago. This will
be an imn ensa relief because at the high
level of 1920 the price structure reached
a stage at which credits were strained
almost to the breaking point The cost
or living ard the cost OF doing business
became terrific burden, causing dis
t-ess ard social unrest Those abuses
have been pretty well corrected because
the country has abandoned the Initiation
level and brought prices down to earth
again. Some articles are quoted near
the pre-war basis. With the liquidation
of securities. merchandise. raw material
and foodstuffs has begun a liquidation
OF labor. which is being reflected in wage
cuts throughout the country. 1t is being
carefully handled with the idea of pre-
venting hardship SO far as possible with
living costs as high as they are. Al
though causing some resentment. that
situation is not bringing on strike dis
tu-bances because the average worker
realizes that Il is utterly impossible TO
continue war wages In peace timea
