Senator Ladge said he would have
preferred that the money be raised d.

would have to be paid sooner or later
by the people in the form of taxes.
Whether financed by the use of the
foreign debt or otherwise.
Senator Simmons told the senate he
a offered his amendment to use the
debt interest for three reasons: To
meet h presidents requirement that
the bill passed carry a means Of finan-
cling. to remove the apprehension of
business, that the bonus would entail
additional taxation, and to give notice
to foreign governments that this coun-
try did not intend to cancel the debts.
h argument that the bill ran .'di-

Senator. Borah. Republican. Idaho
He commended that the situation today

of Country's Products

Special Foreign Fsnancidl Correspondence
ROME, Sept. 3.-The first quarter
of the present year showed an unfavor-
able balance of 1,4S2,2S3,449 lire, the
imports amounting to 3,53S,24S,544 lire
and the exports to 2,o55, ,s63,095 lire.
The government has been informed that
large quantities of goods, especially
woven materials and hosiery, have been
stopped at the New York customs be-
cause, contrary to the Federal customs
laws, the goods were not marked with
the place OF origin. Exporters have
received instructions to mark carefully
the quantity, number and measure
ments of the goods contained in each
package. Measures have also been taken
TO insure careful control over export
ed goods, to prevent dishonest busi-
ness men from harining the reputation
OF Italian industry, as has already hap
pened In connection with the export
OF food commodities. Our yearly ex-
port of timed goods prepared with
vegetable substances amount to about
. 300,000,000 lire. The best fruits are
grown In Italy, but we have not yet
learned the proper manner of exporting
them, and we continue, for example,
to pack IN haphazard fashion, More
uniformity in quality as well as in the
preparation OF the products would in
sure that unity of type" which is an
indispensable condition in increasing
abroad the reputation of the products.
The metallurgic industry and more
especially the shipbuilding and railway
material trades are experiencing an
overproductson crisis, as during the
war these industries were expanded
tremendously in number and produc-
tive power, while present national re-
quirements cover only a small part of
the production and foreign export has
become more difficult. The automobile
industry especially feels the export
difficulties. The chemical industry
particularly explosives and synthetic
coiors, suffers from decrease in con-
sumption and from the competition OF
Germany and other countries having
deprecated exchange.
In the textile industry the silk trade
feels the instability of exchange and
Asiatic competition. In the cotton i'm
dustry the main difficulties are ia son-.
nection with export TO the Near East.
The wool trade, which had been mar
velously developed during the war, is
handicapped by the reduction of inter
nal and external consumption Tan
ming is influenced by the closing of the
Balkan markets. At the present tins
) the only industries which proceed reg
uiarly or have regained regularity are
the electrical, milling and sugar But.
generally, all our industries have the
advantage Of being young, just as is
the political unity of the country, and
therefore the advcrsities are more
easily supported and from the crisis
may come forth fresh period of pros

armistice, Is scheduled in November,
ably clear whether Europe is compe-
tent to meet the problems involved
without major political and social
changes Meantime. the continued
uncertainty and probable further
financial and economic deterioration
will be acting as a forceful lever
toward settlement. One other aspect
of the situation compels attention.
This is the chance, an outside possi-
bility at best, that the debt funding
negotiations between the United States
and the Allies in the course of their
progress may have influenced opinion
here in degree which will warrant
American participation at this meeting
or that the adjustments reached bv tho
negotiators may have a vital bearing
upon the European position. The for
eign exchanges over the last week
have moved irregularly as the dayLto-
day news from abroad has varied in
tone. Net results of their fluctua-
tions were inconsequential until the
strength impaired by the delay given
to Germany caused a slight apprecia-
tion above the closing levels of the
preceding week.
The tightening of money at this
center last week, with the consequent
flrning Of rates, was seasonal and
periodic. The approach Of autumn al
ways brings increased requirements
for funds in other districts in connec-
tion with the crop movement, and this
condition, directly or indirectly, is
bound to be an influence here. How
Important this seasonal factor has
been so far this year is conjectural,
and any effort last week to arrive at a
conclusion was made futile by the
coincidence of preparations for the
September / disbursements, momen-
tarily the determining influence in es-
tablishing open market quotations. The
call loan rate at no time shaded 32
per cent and the charge ranged from
that level up to 8 per cent. Time
loans on Stock Exchange collateral
were marked up at the finish quarter
of ] per cent, and in the acceptance
and commercial paper markets
slight stiffening was reported. Within
another week the effect of the dis
bursements should have been dissi-
pated, in the opinion of bankers and
money brokers, and then it should
be possible to measure more accurate
ly the seasonal factor. A gradual in
crease in member bank borrowings at
the Federal Reserve banks was the
most significant item in the weeks
statements, indicative that this force

New-York tribune., 1922-09-04

The arrangement whereby Germany
is permitted to substitute for cash
payments on reparation account during
the remainder of the year six-months
treasury bills represents merely the
side~stepping by the Allies of the
financial problems of Europe. 1t can
not be regarded in any sense as a
compromise settlement, because it is a
compromise that merely postpones the
reckoning and settles nothing. IT'S
value as temporary expedient is
derived from two considerations:
First, the series of negotiations be-
tween the Allies had reached an i'm
passe where a constructive decision, il
agreement for the long run was possi-
bic at all, was almost beyond the
scope of attainment; and, second, the
arrangement allows limited further
period for the reordering of German
internal finances and for the develop
ment of more conciliatory attitude
The situation as it stood was that Ger
many could not meet the scheduled
payments and at the same time pro-
cure from abroad the food essential to
the life of her population, while be-
cause Of political exigencies and, to
degree, popular sentiment France
could not accede to moratorium with
out greater assurances than Germany
was prepared to furnish. Acceptance
OF the Belgian compromise proposal
clears up for the moment the dangers
Inherent in this conflict of positions.
technical default is averted, but the
plan, in the opinion of bankers, con-
tains nothing that will render Ger
many more able to pay six months
from now than she is to-day. The
state of German finance is such that
even the most strenuous undertaking
of reconstruction and revision could
not restore solvency In so short
time. Evidence OF good will and the
initiation of reforms as indicated by
the Allies are considered to be the
greatest contribution toward settle
ment that Germany can make. The
more important impetus to decision, it
| is felt, will have to come from mod
Grafton of French demands and adjust
ments as between the Allies. Another
conference, the fifteenth since tho
