WASHINGTON, Aug. 20. - The
closest cooperation between con-

effort TO bring shipping board losses
down 20 a minimum was urged Sat
urday by Pres't Harding in a letter
to Sen. Jones, republican, Washing
ton, read to the senate during con-
siderauo Of bill carrying s4S.5OO,-
600 for the boards activities
The president said there had been
''unspeaka Bile" losses and unutter-
able wastes" which must be charged
TO the war emergency.
Chairman Lasker's effort to get
big men TO aid in putting the board
on its feet was approved by the pres

operating losses their salaries would
be more than justified

pirate S3OO,o0GOO0 in outstanding

LONDON, Dec 1S.-A week Of much
uncertainty viii b. followed by one Of
high expectations. Discussions in aad
ont Of Westminster regarding the Irish
situation have had less effect on huzi-
ness than one might have expected,
while the application of the German
government for a moratorium comes as
no surprise
If promises are fulfilled the confer
ence between Premiers Lloyd George
and BRAND will go far toward ending
difficulties between the two countries,
but, unfortunately, there is strong
tendency to take a skeptical view of
the meeting, largely because similar
proclama tions have been followed By
keen disappointments.
Even those skeptical Of the honesty
OF Germany's protests against repara
tions now admit that Central Europe is
heading toward bankruptcy, and more
over that an upheaval of this kind is
bound to have terrific reactions
throughout Europe. That view is pre-
dominant in Europe, but how far it is
shared in France we shall know better
when the two Premiers have completed
their discussions.
chief need is a restoration Of trading
conditions throughout Europe, and
even France, which is suspicious of
Lloyd George, admits that a return to
normal routine of commerce is essen
tial to her future.
What Mr.. Lloyd George will attempt
Will be to frame scheme which Will
give France G measure of financial Sc
curity Independent Of German indemni-
ties. If he can do this it is certain
that France will be satisfied and Anglo
French relations will be improved
tremendously. Undoubtedly Germanv's
application for moratorium was
timed to come on the eve of the Lloyd
George BRAND conference 1t brings
the whole great problem to a head and
gives the two Premiers something def
mite on which to work.
Ihe Allied governments must make
definite decision. The Allies have
power to administer Germany's finances
and take control of her treasury. col
lect her taxes and pay her bills. What
the business world wants is some
scheme by which these periodical
crises can be eliminated.
Good results from the WASHINGTON
conference have had beneficial effects
on Ahglo-American relations, the de-
gree being reflected partially in the
Improvement of the pound in the dol
lar market. Whether this Improvement
will be maintained after the first of
the new year is question on which
opinion differs.
The Forthcoming conference on sta
bllization Of exchanges is awaited with
much interest here.

BERLIN. Dec. lS--Thc financial
situation of the past week has been in
fuenced largely by the international
political situation. bearing on the whole
reparations problem. The mark fuctu-
atod IN accordance with alternating
pessimistic and optimistic reports
concerning the probability of Germany
obtaining a moratorium and sufficient
credit to re-establish trade.
Foreign exchange ruled quiet early
in the week or the arrival of Minister
Loucheur, OF France, in London. For
eien currency took big drcp, but re-
covered with increased demand FOR
marks abroad, especially in Holland
The weakening of marks was further
accentuated by stoppage of payments
by whole line of German banks With
the receipt of reports of the conference
in London between French and British
represen tatives on the combined project
of moratorium and credits for Ger
many under conditions regarded here
as onerous the public again showed an
eagerncss to unload
The return from London OF DR..
Rathenau produced temporary change
in the situation. Reports that he had
failed to accomplish anything definite
and that conditions offered by the
british fnanciers were such q to make
>.sem unacceptable again famed the
pAblie's buying fever which had been
cooled off by reports from Paris that
France favored a $1,000 900 ,000 loan to
Germany at 7 per cent interest
With the publication OF the German
governments note to the reparations
commissions pleading for an extension
of the January and February payments,
the mark took another fall, going again
above the POO for ST level, for the
note was regarded here as nothing less
than an admission of bankruptcy by
Germany.
The market for stocks and other Sc
curities presented corresponding pic
ture. With the apparent unfavorabie
DEVELOPMENT in the reparatlons sltua-
tion and with the failure of two large
banks involving total loss of more
than billion marks, the public grew
wildly desirous of unloading its COM
mitments with the least possible loss.
The result was heavy fall in Sc
curlty prices, many 1aillng as much as
rs per cent-particularly heavy al
though fewer losses were incurred in
mining stocks as wcll as III coal stocks
in Western Germany. A curious feat
ure of this situation was the rise of
the 3 per cent government loan bonds
and the per cent war bonds.
The end of the week saw uncertainty
and confusion developing with great
momentum, the chief fear being of i'm
pending failures OF other banks
As far as government finances are
concerned. the following has been
learned Receipts for 1921 amount to
II, 427 100000 marks. while expendi-
lures will total 233,96S 900, 900, leaving
a deficit Of 161, ,541 ,0o0. 900 marks. The
floating debt is now 241,9S9,3 ,s97.
