GERMANY LOOKING
ABROAD FOR SEMI
FINISHED GOODS
Necessity of Purchasing
Raw Materials Outside
Injuries Home Mills.

GENEVA. July Elm the thirty
years preceding the late war the Ger
man state railways never gave any
orders for rails to non-Gerrpah plants.
but lately Belgian steel works have
got substantial German government
Dbrders for railway materials. The ex--
port of rolled iron sheets from Bel
GUM to Germany is daily increasing.
and during the FIRST four months Of
1891 Germany imported from the
United Kingdom Of Great, Britain
l3.000.000 tons of gas coal. Berlin
alone, the other day, gave a substan-
tial order for her gas factories
amounting to 4oo.ooo.ooo marks.
Thirty years ago the South German
weaving mills were big consumers of
Swiss cotton yarns. but this branch
Il Swiss export disappeared with the
quick growth Of the German spinning
mills. Now Swiss cotton yarn 10
again competing in the South German
market. In spite of the high value of

large extent in German manufacture
VI IS&ug Clothtc-
Czechoslovak glassware and lig-
mite coal nine months ago disap-
peared from the German markets,
when the Czech crown rose above
the German mark. Now, with six
marks having the value of one
Czech crown, Germany il again an
important buyer OF Czecho-slovak
goods. I could increase this series
of examples. all of which are in
striking contradiction to the fact
that finished goods of German
origin are still offered more
cheaply here in Switzerland and all
other countries bordering Germank
than they can be produced in these
countries themselves. A committee
of experts, which has carefully
studied German prices. has come to
the conclusion that IL is not yet
possible to abolish the system of
import prohibitions esta blished
against German goods in Switzer-
land. So we see that at the very
moment when German textile mills
find IT profitable to use Swiss in
stead Of German cotton yarn, Swiss
manufacturers of ready-made mems
clothing state that Germany sup
plies this class of goods at only
one-half of the Swiss cost price.
II is superficial to explain this out
standing contradiction by the mere
statement that obviously the ad-
justment OF German home prices to
world market prices is finished, in
so far as raw materials and half
finished goods are concerned. but is
| still going on as regards finished
goods. This explanation is not suf-
fcient. for we have not the slight
est symptom that the rise of Ger
| man prices of raw cotton. good
coal. and iron sheets in Germany
will stop. once the high-water level
OF world market prices is attained.
1t seems, on the contrary. that the
movement of prices is finding no
limit in the prices ruling abroad.
There are some facts of merely
occasional character which might
be useful for explaining these
strange symptoms.
The Washington herald., 1922-07-03

next two months will be dull in the
steel market, forces will gather and
the relation between them will de-
termine the character of the market
when early autumn comes around
and business must be done again
1t Is really question whether the
buyers or the sellers will first have
to approach the other party.
Some steel has accumulated in
buyers hands. and that might turn
the scale in favor of buyers. but
the accumulation of the past six
months would hardly balance the
great liquidation in steel and manu-
features of steel that occurred in
1921. Then 1t is remarked that
movements in the steel market al
most invariably last at least a year,
and whether that is due to the hu-
man. element or something else. is a
point that is seriously considered.
The preponderating opinion. there
fore, is that steel trade conditions
are likely to remain strong. until
late in the year at least. 1t must
be admitted, however. that there
have been such radical swings In
steel that judgment based on prece-
dents is less to be trusted than for
merly.

MOST OF OLD CROP COTTON p
AS LEFT GROWERS HANDS
Recent Top Prices Little Benefit to Farmers.
Years Planting Encourages.

MEMPHIS, July although
there is but little cotton left I'M
sold in this section of the South,
since the activity of the past sew
eral weeks on the part of buyers
has well cleaned UP stocks. yet
midsummer business offers a basis
of encouragement Compared with
a year ago the volume OF trade is
considerably larger. and there Is a
feeling of hopefulness, where as
last summer 1t was anything. else.
Figures on the bank debts in this
city sent to the Federal Reserve
Bank for the week ending June IA
show a gain of s3,1S1,00o. as COM
pared with the corresponding week
of 1921. Several other cities Of the
South also showed gains, although
not as much as Memphis.
But for the fact that cotton sales
were small. due to stocks having
dwindled SO much. the increase in
the value of that staple, nearly $50
the bale, would be given all credit
for the increase. Middling cotton
has been selling in this center
around % cents a pound as fast as
offered. while a year ago II was
slow sale at about half that much.
This has had a favorable influence
on business sentimentA as we'll as
enabling more obligations to be
met: but behind. it there has been
the stimulating effect OF encourag-
ing operations based on anticipa ted
high prices for the new crop.
The Washington herald., 1922-07-03

The question Of how much harm
the boil weevil is going to do is still
very important, and around n
hinges more than ever the making
of a crop of cotton. The influence
of the pest thus far Is admitted l Y
prospective. for the time is ahead
when his real work in wrecking
yield will be done. IL IL is to be. The
widespread infestation and the I'M
precedented numbers at a date fully
month earlier than ever knoyn
before have played on sentiment
and have been worked to their full
est by the speculative element in
the market But not alone by the
latter, for II Is recognized that even
with the most favorable weather
and success in fighting it the pest
will take heavily of the crop.
The reactionary market feeling
which has attended the excellens
weather of the past week or two.
resulting in the weevil being given
a check and the crop making fine
progress. has not encouraged the
expectation of prices working OFT
very much The real time for the
weevil to do his work is after fruit
ing has started. and when the Sec
ond or third crops of its eggs shall
have been Matched. The luII in COM
plants has been due to the cotton
planter catching his second breath
and getting busy trying to combat
the pest in every way known, the
poisoning methods adopted and rec
commended by the government ex-
perts being resorted 20 without hes
itancy. as the outlook for prices IS
sufficiently good to Justify the cost
roughly estimated at about IS an
acre.
The banker and business man are
doing everything in their power tC
help, but there Is a degree OF hest.
fancy in making commitments. II
the crop turns out 10000 900 bales OF
even less. prices as high as the crest
of a few years ago would hardly
AFFORD offsetting compensation. Calcu-
lations are now being based on a price
somewhere between 20 and Is cents
a pound this fall. Should the output
be 100000 bales or better. even the
lower price would further stimulate
business and would save many bank
ruptcies OF concerns which escaped
such only because Of leniency on the
part of banks and others. The top
figure for such a crop would unloose
much prosperity for the cotton coun-
try, for already the comeback proc
ess has made much Roadway.
One OF the outstanding evidences OF
the latter Is that building operations
have been active now for nearly a
year. and as yet do not give promise
of subsiding. In this particular city
the bulk of it has been of residential
character. and II Is only recently that
1t has begun to have effect on rents

man, is too busy TO think about
racing this year. But in 1924 he will
be ready for a race for America s
Cup.
The famous Irish skipper arrived
here yesterday on the Baltic, bub-
bling over with enthusiasm over the
prospects for Shamrock V. For such
a craft will he built regardless OF
expense. in an attempt to carry
home the trophy he has tried for
six times. Sir Thomas said:
II still have my eyes on that

my next Shamrock will get it. l do
not think that business conditions
would warrant a race this year-but
in 1924, you can count me in"
Sir Thomas Is seventy-five years
old and actually looks younger than
when he was here two years ago.
He expects to consult with members
of the New York Yacht Club about

CHINESE MISS TO STUDY
AMERICAN JOURNALISM

Following in the footsteps OF her
brother, X. 2. Chang, secretary Of
the Chinese Educational Mission
here. Miss Eva Chang, a sprightly
representative of the new feminist
movement in China. has come to the
United States to study journalism.
Miss Chang, whose real given
name is Chiy.ing, has enrolled in
the school of journalism in the
University of Missouri, following a
years training at Oberlin College.
After completing her courses she
will return to her native land TO
manage a newspaper along Ameri-
can lines.
Miss Chang readily accepts most
OF the phenomena of social life in
the Occident. but one thing astounds
her, an that is TO see men and
women dancing together.
II think IL would be better II the
men danced with the men and the
girls with the girls" she naively
gave her opinion. the first time she
got a closeup of a closeup dance.
