NEW YORK, May 21-Willard Mack is the happiest man alive" He is going to re-marry Pauline Fred erick, who divorced him, if
 Pauline" he said, lis the sweetest woman in all the world. She has for given me. A few days ago our paths crossed right here in New York and we had a long talk. Folks saw us on the streets, and they saw her kiss me when she boarded the train for California.
 "She told me that she would put me on 10 weeks probation. and if at the end of that time I had been a good boy she would come back here and marry me all over again.
 What honeymoon it will be, too, Mind you, she has a check on me. There are 19 personal friends who will watch me. and they will take turns in sending her telegrams, one day, reporting just what do.
 Our trouble,'' Mack explained, "came as a result of being so widely separated. Pauline was always in one part of the country and I in an- other. If we could have been together I guess she never would have had cause to divorce me.

New York Fnancier Says Recent Rise In Foreign Exchange Most Encouraging Sign of Business Stability Since the War; Says Chaotic Conditions Of World Trade Are Beginning to Clear

foreign trade in the new era which we are now entering, we must extend long time credits. Also We must be prepared to invest our surplus in for eign securities. This is the policy that made possible England's foreign trade development Before the war the total of England's foreign secur- ity holdings was about twenty bill ion dollars. To maintain our present position as a creditor nation, our for eign investments ought to reach forty billions"
 German Competition
 With the settlement of the repar- ations question, isn't Germany goirg to give the rest of the world, includ ing America, keener competition for foreign trade than ever before?''
 Tt seems logical to suppose that she will. The very necessities of her situation will compel Germany 10 or ganize her industries on the most ef- ficient possible basis which means low production costs. It is up to us to meet German efficiency with equal or greater efficiency, not for the pur- pose of killing off German foreign trade, but simply to maintain our po- sition.
 Our foreign trade policy should De live and let live. recognizing that in the case of both England and Germany their existence as great nations depends upon their ability to export great. quantities of goods Their export trade is vital to them. With uss foreign trade is important, but not vital"
 Signs of Improvement '1s the recent rise in foreign ex- change a healthy sign from the standpoint of our foreign trader
 Tt is not only a healthy sign. but the most encouraging sign since the war. It gives us the right to hope that the chaotic conditions of inter national trade throughout the world are beginning to clear up. How chaotic these conditions have been during the past year or two I do not believe people generally fully appre- ciate.
 There had been developed over period of many years a machine Of the greatest intricacy and delicacy for the exchange of goods among nations. The war smashed the ma chine into bits It will require time. great intelligence and much patience to put it together again. Of course, | 1t will be done because it must be done if the civilization which we know is to persist. But it is bound
 to be a slow process"

 Governor Mabey of Utah said the creation of new arable lands would assist the country to care for former service men.
 As the settlement of the west has proceeded, first the small streams, and next the larger ones have been utilized" he said until now the hope of increased facilities lies in cooper aIon of the government to work out the projects of greater magni- tude.''

A. p. Leased Wlrel

PHILADELPHIA. May q. = Ap- proval of the modified plan for the segregation of the Reading com Tznies. decreed by the United States supreme court, was given today bX the federal district court and disposes finally of all questions in the un- scrambling of the properties con- trolled by the Reading company, a holding concern, unless Someone takes an appeal.
 The two. .big points decided were:
 Equal rights are given to the com mon and preferred stockholders in receiving the stock of the new cor poration to be formed to take over the Reading company's equity in the Philadelphia & Reading Coal and Iron company.
 Placing the majority stock of the New Jersey Central railroad, owned by the Reading company in the hands of a trustee or trustees to be ap- pointed until a favorable time arrives for its sale. removing from the con trol of the Reading company pending final disposal.
 The other part of the plan made public at the time it was filed with the court was contested. It provides that the Reading company shall be merged with the Philadelphia & Reading Railway company and that the merged concern shall be subject to all state and federal regula tions as a common carrier.
 The court ordered the Reading company and the government to sub init within Is days a form of decree embodying the points approved by the court today.
 The II, capitol stock of the Reading railway, the Reading Coal and Iron company the Reading Terminal company and the Reading Iron company; also s14,- 5o4.no0 of the S27, ,436.S0O capital stock of the Jersey Central railroad. The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad company and the New York Central railroad hold more than s60.665, ,G00 of the cap ital stock of the Reading company, constituting a dominant interest.
 The court decision brings to vir- tuai end the governments suit against the Reading company as an illegal combination.
 Under the dissolution plan. Circuit 'JVdge Burlington holds the Reading company is not distributing a divi- dend or earnings. but is disposing the capital assets of the coal com pany. which the supreme court had declared 1t could no longer lawfully hold Tt is now disposed of,' said the court. .-in substantially the same way as the law would dispose of the property of that company were it be- ing dissolved. and in that connection we deem 1t proper to say the legal question of dividend distribution, be- tween the different classes of stock holders is not here involved. and on that question we express no present opinion for the simple reason that we are not dividing profits or earnings.
