CHICAGO PAPER GIVES DA-
IA AND WOULD REVERSE
SYMPATHIES

The security market shows signs OF
going up. The war-worn security
holders rejoice. Few others rejoice
with them. Why?
Because investors in other fields
look on security holders with distaste;
because they imagine security holders
are gamblers, even when holding the
securities outright; because they think
a rise in stocks is at the cost OF every
body who has no stocks; because
they fell in a vague way that stock
holding is less legitimate than land
holding; because of dozen other
prejudices and suggestions that
aren't so.
1t is queer how in troublous times
so many persons think the way out
for themselves is through multiplying
the troubles of others, or at least ig-
noring other peoples hardships.
A Farmers Complaints
A very handsome and intelligent
letter from a Michigan farmer to the
editor is full of justified complaints
and unjustifiable reproaches. he tells
of foodstuffs spelling on the farm be-
cause freight rates are so high and
then assails the manufacturers oil
farm supplies who do not lay down
their goods in Michigan at pre-war
levels. AS If the freight rates that
burden the farmers outgoing crops
did not burden equally his incoming
supplies! As il either crops or farm
supplies could move at all, If to move
them meant steady loss to the rail-
roads, AS If railroads, supply makers
and farmers were not all suffering to-
gether from hardships from which
only together, they will be able to get
relief. Now as regards stocks:
Plainly, If the public did not invest
in stocks the money that is needed for
corporation enterprise that enterprise
would cease--the factory would manu-
facture no more, the employer would
employ no more, the employe would
receive wages no more, the workers
would have no money with which to
buy and the farmers foodstuffs would
lie unsold, in the market or on the
farm.
Men who save money or earn prof
its and want an income in addition
to what they get out of their bust
ness have to place their savings in
land or securities to accomplish their
PURPOSE. bOlH are cuudlly lGSfIlllldJc.
in times of prosperity both invest
ments prosper. In times of hardship,
like the present, both suffer.
While the landholders get lot of
sympathy these days, strangely
enough the security holders get none
at all. Yet their sufferings have been
keen, their losses terrific. A man re-
Gently told this newspaper how his
small savings and vested income had
fallen to pieces-St. Paul preferred

and no dividend. A loss of more than

land at $500 an acre and now finds
II at s175 any worse off? No, not SO
badly off, for he at least can get some
OF his family sustenance from the
land. while the factory formean gets
absolutely nothing from his invest
ment. Again:

SECURITY HOLDERS LOSSES
GREATER THAN FARMERS

Chicago preferred stock in an ola
astabliebed company had earned and
maid its cumulative dividend for years,
II was regarded as so safe that 1T was
known as an old ladies' stock. 1t was
traded i'm ccordngly-only little
holdings of ten or twenty SHARES were
the ordinary sales.
Dropped from 50 to %
The company was roughly handled
nv the government, during the war,
and in the smash of securities the pre-
ferred stock has gone from 80 to 70.
The dividend has ceased. The ola
ladine have the stock dead on their
hands: so have the old men; so have
the Young men, Thus the new poor
are created
Let anybody look at the stock list
of two years ago and today! Inc
losses in price are as severe as the
seyerest losses in other fields Thirty,
forty and fifty per cent declines are
common enough, and these are not
limited to securities of doubtly stand
ing. Steel, with book value near 250,
has gone down nearly 40 per cent;
that is a steel stock certificate that
was worth around S12,500 in the mar
ket has been for months worth around
IS, 900. An oil stock that was worth
Sc. 900 a hundred shares, has been
worth but SO 900 to $4,000 for months,
and the book value is over 81 800.
Let one compare the whole list OF
stocks, especially railway stocks, as 1t
is today with what it was two years
ago. The losses are stupendous! Away
up i'm the billions! And these are not
millionaires' losses, spectators loss
es! These alone make up but frac-
ton of the total. OF the 100000 hold
ers of railway securities, the majority
are what is known as the public. The
same is true of Steel securities and of
the best independent oil companies.
All Suffer Together
What does all this mean? Simply
that to a large extent we all go up
and down together; that the security
holder took his losses first and that
his losses were heaviest, and that
neither farmer, industrialist nor Fed
eral Reserve banker should hail other
wise than with satisfaction any relief
that may come from rising security
market, for 1t is a harbinger of a
brighter future for all.
If one follows the troubles of the
railroads in all their ramifactions-
from transportation. companies to far
mers, to manufacturers, to shippers,
to consumers, to buyers, and sellers,
as well as to stockholders and opera
tors-one finds that the problems of
one are at bottom the problems of all,
that the solution of the problems of
some is usually solution of the same
problems for all. We all suffer to-
gether-prosper together
1t therefore is a dawn of better
things, or at least preliminary sign
of dawn, ii the securities of the coun-
try begin to revive, as seems now the
case. Not only is such a revival a
cheerful promise to trade, industry
and agriculture, but if it proceeds
gradually and surely. will bring with
II general loosening of all the sourc-
es of production.
| A return to better times is not like
a flight in an airship. 1t is like a
slow and toilSome ascent of a pair of
stairs. In such a movement, the re-
vival of securities would resemble the
first step.-Chicago Herald Examiner.

FEDERAL INQUIRY ON

Special Despatch to THE NEW YORK HERALD.
MONTICELLO. Ca, March 2S.-With
the bodies of eleven negroes already
uncovered either on the murder farm
of John Williams in Jasper county, or
dragged from out of the Alcovy and
the yellow rivers, investigators in this
wholesale murder are now working on
the theory that there may be other
victims.
1T is pointed out that on the date of
the first murder admitted by Clyde
Manning, who says he acted on the
orders of his master, John Williams.
there were nineteen other negroes at
work on this plantation, and it is said
all these are now missing.
Whether they have managed to
make their escape from the alleged
peonage conditions, or have been hid
den, or perhaps killed is the problem
on which the authorities are at work.
There are agents of the Federal Gov
ernment as well as State officers pres
ent doing their best to get all the evil
dence possible. Some of the local Off
GERS scout the theory that there have
been more murders and are inclined TO
the belief that the negroes have
escaped, but other officials are not
satisfied until thorough investigation
has been made.
Other developments in the case to-
day was an effort by Solicitor Brand
of the Stone Mountain Circuit 10 have
the case OF Williams put on trial in
Newton county Thursday, but this was
beaton on the objection OF counsel for
the defence, who argued insuffi-
cient time for the preparation OF their
case That, according to the judge.
does not mean, however. that the case
will 20 over until the jury term A spe-
cial session can be called IL necessary,
he said.
Newton county IS now making every
effort to take charge OF the cases, al
though Jasper has an equal claim. New
ton says its officials have the evidence
TO convict and are ready to go into the
case at once.
Another development was the allega-
tions OF a plot on the part of certain
persons to stir the whites up against the
negroes, and the receipt of number OF
threatening notes alleged to have been
written whites by negroes. It was re-
ported that one white man had been ar
rested and had confessed, but this had
not been corroborated.
