CLEARING OF STRIKE SITUATION
OPENS WAY FOR TRADE SPEED
Outlook for Fall and Winter Is Frightened
by Bountiful Harvests and Liberal
Money and Credit Conditions.

the autumn and coming winter Is
favorable. 1t has not. moreover, been
overdfscounted by a violent Wall
street speculation. The rise from
the prices of a year ago has been
very considerable, but has not been
accomplished by any huge outside
speculation. straining bank loans and
creating imitation, such as character
ICED the markets Of 1915 and 1919.
Germany's Financial Dilemma.
The one question that must always
be asked with solicitude Is how FAR,
II at all. our domestic business and
financial conditions would be affected
by the complete economic breakdown
Of Germany. Cable dispatches very
ment on the other side as apprehen-
sive Of a general panic. should the
reparations commission side with
France against England and encour-
age the French to carry out alone
the drastic program set forth by
ence. But, so far. apart from what
is. on the whole, moderate decline
in French, Belgian and Itai ex-
change, the markets of the last fort
night have not supported the notion
of serious uneasiness below the sur
face.
Foreign government securities
have yielded very little. the general
investment list at London and Paris
has been steady, and more striking
still. sterling exchange has within
the last few days sold within 2
cents in the pound of the very
highest of the year. These are
symptoms quite incompatible with
alarm lest Germany drag the rest
Of the nations with her on the
downward path.
How the German reparations prob
lem will eventually be worked out so
as to avoid a crisis in France and
Belgium is still very hard to see.
But Great Britain. not being de-
pendent upon German indemnity
payments. having successfully bal
anced her budget and regained the
credit side in her trade with the
outside world, occupies q compare
lively Independent position. So. even
more. does the United States. where
commerce with Germany and France
together Is an insignificant part OF
the total home and foreign trade.

-REDbY FOX.
The four little Foxes. the children,
their stomachs full, were taking a
nap close to their home in the Old
Pasture. But their mother was not
| mapping. No. sir. she was not nap
ping. She lay listening to a sound
that both worried hSr and provoked
her. 1t was the voice Of Bowser the
Hound. And she knew as well as
II she had been where she could see
that Bowser was on the trail OF Red
dy Fox.
Had it been in the late fall or win
ter Mrs. Reddy would have been
neither worried nor provoked. She
would simply have prepared to help
getting rid Of Bowser But now she
was worried because of those four
young Foxes. She felt sure that
Reddy would have sense enough to
keep away from the Old Pasture. But
there was always a chance that he
not in condition for a long run at
this season of the year. She knew
that he would soon feel the heat. II
he could not play one of his smart
tricks to fool Bowser he might como
seeking her aid. and that would
young Foxes. So. Mrs Reddy was
worried. She wasn't worried on ac-
count Of what might happen to Red
dy, but on account Of those young
Foxes.
And. she was provoked because
Reddy had been where Bowser the
Hound would find his trail. She
knew just as well as II she had been
there that Reddy had visited Farmer
Browns barnyard. I'll give him q
piece of my mind" declared Mrs.
Reddy. yes. sir I'll give him q
piece of my mind the first chance I
get. The idea of getting into trou-
BILE this time OF year! He ought to
know better. He does know better"
Just then one of the little Foxes
awoke. At once he pricked up his
funny little ears. "Bow, WOW, WOW.
woww came the voice OF Bowser the
Hound from the distance. "Bow,
WOW, WOW, wow" Another little
Fox awoke and pricked up his ears.
Then the other two awoke, and all
sat up to listen.
What is that noise?'' asked one
little Fox.
"It is the voice of Bowser the
Hound" replied their mother.
"Who is Bowser the Hound?" asked
another little Fox.
Mrs. Reddy walked over and sat
down in front of the four little Fox
es She looked at each sharp little
face. In none was there even a trace
Of fear. All she saw was curiosity.

BY STUART p. WEST.

NEW YORK, August 1s.-Interest
In the financial situation this week
has been divided between the prog
ress made in adjusting labor troubles
at home and the lack of progress to-
ward any solution Of the great ques-
tions which cloud the outlook abroad.
The strike which has tied up the coal
trade for the last four months and q
half Is now virtually settled. The strug-
gle with the coal miners was always
Of far moro consequence than the
struggle with tho railway shopmen.
Az statistics on car loadings have
shown. tho walkout of the shop craft
employees has had very little effect
Ing the movement Of freight. Whether
continued walkout would result
In detertorated equipment and - great
reduction In transportation Of mer-
cnandise Is 2 matter regarding
which much df6arsnes Of opinion has
date have all been on the side Of the
carriers. The threat Of a sympathtic
strike by tho members Of the big
four railway brotherhoods quickly
petered out. There were isolated
walkouts. but that was all. The fear
"a q - A6h"dy uSNCA
particularly acute, had completely
disappeared by the middle of the
week.
1t has meant a good deal, therefore.
to settle the soft coal strike. even
II the settlement has not been the
sort that the operaors would have
liked to see. Manufacturing industries
may now look forward to getting
back to the production Of a mon:h
and two months ago. Tho railroads.
with coal shipments at q maximum
as they surely will be, face a demand
upon their facilities probably greater
even that that which resulted in the
famous freight congestion OF 1877.

vests. with a cotton crop which, al
though less II anything than the
average. promises to bring prices
