SUPERIOR HIGHWAY
BRINGS NEW TRADE

Business from the Globe Miami dis
trict that formerly went to Ell Paso is
now coming to Phoenix, according to
VIM. d. Holt, manager of the Mat
thews Paint company on South Sec
ond street.
THE Superior highway Is opening
up much new trade for Phoenix" he
declared. I'VE are already beginning
to feel its good effects but can conf
dently rely upon even a more pro-
nounced impetus for business in the
Salt River Valley after the road is
entirely completed and officially op-
ened to commercial traffic"
In addition to the increasing bnsi-
ness from this district the Matthews
paint company reports that many
new buildings are being erected in
the northern part of the state which
reflect their benefit to the local firm.
AS the demand for paint and its ac-
companying materials increases the
price gradually ascends. 1t is the old
rule of the price following the supply
and demand and as some of the paint
materials are becoming scarce the
higher grade paints, which are the
more economical in the long run, are
due for an early advance in price,
according to Mr.. Holt.

half the original volume. they en-.
joyed couple of years ago. Instead
of trying to bring expenses down to
a reasonable proportion of what the
income is now, and then increasing
as conditions warrant, they are try
ing to let things ride along till the
revival" comes off. And when it
gets here they won't notice it..
This doesn't mean merely rush
ing down to the office and cutting
everybody's salary and then sitting
back and saying well done. 1t may
mean the opposite, but it means in
any event brad thinking and clear
analysis directed along the whole
phase of the business enterprise.
Things don't happenthey are caused.
Now. while you are saying that
your business is different, that YOU
have already cut expenses every
where, and that further reduction is
impossible and that the whole thing
is no ase-wllile you are proving it
can't be done. some one else is busy
doing it. What we do know is that
it was done at least successfully in
two cases. where they were sure it
could not be accomplished.
Normal business conditions will
return-are returning. But don't
expect it to hit you in the face. fill
your cash register and make you
cease worrying on the morrow. 1t
wont come that way. A better IL
lustration would be a gentle breeze,
moving without warning but sus-
tanning to those who put their house
in order, and who are ready to
profit by each small improvement

WELLESLEY HILLS, April 22.--
Roger w. Babson, in discussing the
bond situation, makes the following
statement:
Many inquiries are coming to me
asking me if bond prices have not yet
reached their zenith. 1t is known that
theres has been a considerable in
crease during the past few months.
The average of a group of standard
investment bonds which stood at 7o.1
a year ago now is S5.7. Moreover,
the bond advertising in the news
papers shows the large number of Of
ferings now being made. Everything
indicates a boiling market. Usually
boiling markets are followed by a
slump. do not believe, however
that the bond market will have
slump for some time to come.
There are numerous factors which
are helping the bond situation. First
is the willingness on the part of the
people to give more attention to the
fundamentals of life. During the war
time boom people went crazy with
spending, borrowing and wasting.
This inevitably led to extravagance,
inefficiency, and dishonesty The peo-
pie are now seeing the error OF their
ways. Thrift is today being substi-
tuted for extravaganza, efficiency Is
taking the place of inefficieney, and
integrity is again developing in place
of dishonesty. All of this means that
more money is continually available
for permanent improvements, road
building, school houses, factories and
homes. This change for the better
has just begun, and hence is liable to
continue for some years. If so, there
will be a good bond market for long
time to come.
another factor, helping the bond
market is the great increase in the
number of bond buyers. Before the
war only a bloated gentleman with a
silk hat and a six-pound gold watch
chain was supposed to be able to buy
bonds. 1t is true that in those days
the large proportion Of bonds were
bought by the idle rich whose princi-
pal occupation was clipping coupons.

European Tourists Find

LONDON, June 16 { BY MaiD.-Rates
Of exchange are deceptive things,
writes correspondent from Prague to
THE Daily Mail" Many English
people who have decided to take their
holidays abroad this year are finding
that German marks and Czccho- Slovak
ian crowns are not quite so plentiful
when exchanged for English pounds as
the printed lists of quotations would
seem to suggest. They are finding, too,
that Continental hotelkeepers and
others have ways of their own of max
ing little profits which affect the
travellers budget acutely.
A visitor from England who has just
been spending fortnight in this
ences to me. Before started" he
said, Il worked out the probable cost
of my trip. | find that my estimate
was wrong by at least 20 ner cent.
"In the first place was quite un-
aware of the fact that to travel by
any but the slowest of trains on many
Continental railways it is necessary
to pay supplement. Then, although
I had obtained from my hotel the tariff
for the accommodation | should re-
quire. was not told that 20 per cent
would be added to the bill for staff
"Thc news of this demand was not
broken to me until l was on the point
of leaving. Meanwhile had been tip
ping walters and other hotel servants
all day and every day.
"a further trouble is that it seems
impossible to take a meal in any
restaurant here without being prac
tically compelled to tip at least three
people--the head waiter, who does
nothing but present the bill for the
meal; the waiter who serves the food
and the wine waiter. The rate of ex-
change does little or nothing to make
up for these varied extortions."
