mentally important fact that as
shown by wholesale price indexes
the price level has suffered but
little variation since the middle OF
1921, monthly changes seldom
amounting to as much as a point
or two.
Better Railroad Prospects.
Higher prices for railroad stocks
during the past week are a reflec
ton of public opinion with respect
to the condition Of the carriers
Their revival Ia in a measure based
on the expectation that negotia
tions which have been going on
between the roads and their emf
ployes will bring about reduced
wages without threat Of strikes
Roads which have been regarded
somewhat doubtfully by investors
are showing the ability to hold their
own, and the attitude taken by the
Administration reflected In the cur
rent rate proceedings before the
Interstate Commerce Commission
affords good warrant for the be-
lief that there will be no attack
upon the general rate structure.
Better car loadings and reduction
in idle cars since the beginning OF
the year further help to confirm
the more optimistic prospects In
transportation.
1t continues to be a fact, of course
that the roads are in many cases suf'
fering from the lack OF new cars and
other betterments, but this could
easily be remedied II the Government
should decide to guarantee railroad
equipment issues on the lines sug
gested by Secretary Hoover. and
would be OF great aid in restoring
normal industrial conditions.
Market Review and Outlook.
The market during the week has
given a good account of itself. Based
on a long range view quotations for
a majority OF stocks still look at.
tractve. Everything points to a re
vtval Of trade in the near future
and this of course means greater
earnings for industrial concerns and
for the common carriers. Added to
this there will be plenty OF money to
satisfy all legitimate requirements
at moderate rates of interest. Sub
stantial reason exists, therefore, for
the optimistic feeling regarding
stock values. While the general
public is not doing very much at the
present time signs are not lacking
that they are willing to pick w
stocks whenever they are offered a.
fair concessions. As a matter Of
fact, more interest has been showr
in the market during the las
fortnight than for a long tim,
previous. Present owners Of stock,
still believe that the outlook is SUI
ficiently bright to justify them II
holding for higher figures and 3,
long as this opinion prevails Their,
is little likelihood Of any setback o
importance.

Soft Drink Tax
May Be Imposed
By Va. Assembly

RICHMOND, Va. Feb. IL.
A THOUGH the Federal
"A Government has repealed
the so-called nuisance tax"
on soft drinks and ice cream
served at soda fountains,
there is a fair chance of its
being restored in Virginia by
the present legislature.
A measure known as Sen.
ate bill 21S provides that the
10 per cent tax on these lux
uries be restored, the soda
fountain and ice cream par
lor proprietors collecting the
levy and turning it into the
State treasury.
The motive for the pro-
posed restoration Of the tax
is "to provide a fund for
public school maintenance"
Because of this motive, the
bill has considerable support
in both houses of the assem-
bly, and has more than an
even chance of passing.

Latest Addition.

Quite a little interest was appar.
ent in the International Combustion
Engineering stock, just listed. The
abreviation is mo" and the tape
recorded a substantial advance over
the last quotation made on the
market. A strong pool is said to be
working in the issue on the belief
that earnings. which amounted to
1915 a share in the past year, will
show a substantial increase in the
current period.

Lackawanna Steel Report

The Lackawanna Steel report is
looked for early this month. It
will doubtless be a rather poor nx-
hibit. Considerable buying has de-
veloped in Lackawanna Steel, as
we'll as other independents, because
OF rumor talk. Quiet liquidation
recently, however, has been notice
able. This is due to the belief that
the seven-company merger, of
which Lackawanna was to be d
part, has hit a bulwark. However,
the Youngstown merger negotia
tions are understood to be still
under way.

WAGE GUT MOVE
CROWS AMONG
BRITISH FUNDS
Political and Industrial Re-
action Forecast, Though
Union Funds Low.
By DAVID M. CHURCH,
international News Service.

LONDON, Feb. 11.-Grave politi-
cal and industrial reaction is ex-
pected in Great Britain as the re-
suit Of a wage reduction movement
which has found ready Roadway
since the inception of the year 1922.
Unrest is increasing among
workers as the result Of wage re-
auctions and threatened wage reduc-
lions, according to reports received
in labor circles here. General con-
ditions Of unemployment and de-
pleted union funds have not been
remedied, but despite these facts a
wave of bitterness has followed the
efforts of British employers to re-
duce wages, and il is expected that
this feeling may lead to a political
and industrial situation which will
bear with great weight upon the
immediate future of the British
Empire.
Authentic statistics gathered by
labor experts here show that while
the cost of living remains at more
than 30 per cent above the 1914
pre'war standard, while the actual
earnings Of hundreds of thousands
have already been reduced to the
pre-war basis.
Farm Workers Fear Cut.
The coming agricultural seasons
success is already thrC0 tened by
wage reductions which have been
put into effect by farmers through
out the agricultural districts. The
wages OF over a hundred thousand
farm laborers have already been
