the first sermon of a series at the
Baptist church last Sunday morning
before an immense congregation that
has assembled day after day since,
to hear the earnest, honest, helpful

souls of men and the redemption of
the people is expressed in every word

GERMAN MARKETS
DANGEROUS GROUND

Washington, July 17.-Americap
trade agents in Germany have hoisted
danger signal for American buyers
of German goods. American CONNER
cial experts in Berlin have cabled to
Washington warnings that German
business and industry is being con-
Quoted upon purely speculative
basis. American buyers are reminded
that German merchants will decline to
guarantee prices for future deliveries.
Americans returning from the Leip-
zig fair have reported that German
manufacturers generally refused to
offer firm prices, except for goods in
limited quantities and goods already
manufactured.
An element of instability in Ger
man manufacturing is the fact that
the Germans make no wage agree
ments for a longer period than one
month. Exact knowledge of future
German trade values is Impossible be-
cause of the prospect of wage ad-
vances from time to time, of increases
In utility rates, which have failed thus
far to cut down heavy deficits, and a
steady advanve in prices of raw ma
terials. Another factor of insecurity,
according to these expert observa-
ton, is the system of levying export
supplements. These are designed to
bring the price of German exports
closer to the price prevailing in the
country importing German goods.
Shifting prices in Germany, there
fore, and the almost certain prospect
that production costs will rise stead
lily up toward the world. level, eventu-
ally can be counted upon by Amer1-
cans in their dealings with German
traders. Further uncertainty grows
out of the fluctuations. and deprecia-
tion of the German mark.
American importers in some in
stances have reaped large fortunes by
taking advantage of the German sit
uation in earlier periods and buying
cheaply and selling at high profits.
German readjustment, however, has
brought such speculation to the point
of serious risk by those who attempt
it, insthe opinion of American OBJ
fservers. It will be especially danger
Gus in financial sense for those who
seek to buy in large quantities.
