LUXUR|ESFOR
YEAR GAIN ON
IMPORT RECORD
Manufactured Necessaries
Drop and Foodstuffs Are'
Cut SO Per Cent.

Luxuries are the one class Of
articles among those imported into
the United States which fail to show
q big decrease in value in the fiscal
year just ended. .....<
Manufacturing material as a
whole shows a fall OF II per cent
In the fiscal year 1922, as compared
with the fiscal year 1921. Manufac-
lures as a whole decreased % per
cent in that period and foodstuffs
80 per cent.
While statement by the Ma
tonai City Bank Of New York
showed at the end of 1921 a material
decline in the importation OF
luxuries. the figures at the close Of
the past fiscal year show a slight in.
crease In value when compared with
the same period one year earlier.
Taking twenty-five principal arti.
cles usually classed as luxuries. i'm
ports in the 1922 tiscal year totaled
In round figures $3.50, 900 900. as
compared with $240. 5000 twelve
months previously. II tobacco Is in
cluded in this figuring. which is
declared by many to be a "neces.
sity." the total would be $305, ,000, 900.
Following are a few of the i'm
ported lpxuries and their valuation
In the past year:
Diamonds and other precious
stones, sac, 900 900: laces, $2S, 900. 900:
photogra pbic goods, chiefly motion
picture films, $500, ,000 art works,
$22,500,0o0, and furs, s2.000,00o.

SHOWS ADVANCE
Loans From Bank Of France to
Be Paid Off Two Billion
Francs a Year.

"A decrease of two billion francs
in the amop pnt of the French gov
ernment's lbans from the. Bank Of
France, and an increase Of nine bill.
lion francs in the annual revenue
collections are noteworthy. results
achieved by FSance in her postwar
Efforts to put the nations finances on
strong basis"
This statement is made by the
Bankers Trust Company of New
York, in a brochure, French Public
Finance" made public today.
According to the pamphlet, the
French government, in 1918, was free
of debt to the Bank of France. But
due to the burden Of war. IL became
necessary for the government; In I'D
dition to other borrowings, to bor-
row vast sums from the bank. Mean
while, the national revenues had not
been keeping pace with the rapid
growth Of the national Indebtedness.
Upon the defeat of the military
invasion" the statement continues.
determined efforts were undertaken
to improve the French financial
situation. Official figures show that
the total loans from the Bank OF
France reached maximum Of 26.-
500 900 900 francs in 1920. at which
time they constituted approximately
one-third of the total floating debt
of France. The government is
pledged to reduce these loans by
1000 900 900 francs a year hereafter.

Market Comment
BY w. 8. COUSINS.

Copyright. 1922. by Cosmopolitan News

NEW YORK, July 26.-Advocates
Of Government ownership Of rail-
roads and other national enterprises
may find another crumb of comfort
in the order OF the Interstate Com
merce Commission. effective today,
under which II assumes control Of
the movement of all freight on
American railroads. The orders are
extended TO all railways In the ship
ment of freight and establish priort-
ties for certain groups Of commodi-
ties east Of the Mississippi river.
After the failure of the Government
operation Of the railroads during the
war period, there is little sympathy
for any movement to resume such
operations at the present time,
though II Is not denied that the
strong arm of the GoveSnment, CO.
operating with the private manage
nent Of the carrier systems, may
accomplish good results in this
critical period.
There Is reason both for gratifica-
ton and for encouragement In the
second quarterly statement OF the
United States Steel Corporation.
There can be little encouragement in
the fact that for the sixth consecu-
tive quarter the steel corporation
was compelled to dig into surplus
in order to paysthe per cent divi-
dend to the common stockholders.
On the other hand, the three months
net receipts are considered the
largest Of any similar period. Since
the first quarter Of 1921 monthly
earnings for June were also the
largest for any month since that
time. What the results Of the past
quarter measure most accurately,
however, Is the reaction from the
business depression of last year. The
fact that the giant corporation
earned only a little over $4,000 900
last July and $4,000. 900 in January.
and SIC. O.912 900 in June Of this year,
represents a remarkable turn for the
better, and II is from that angle that
the latest statement should be con-
sidered.
It ia significant that the small de-
partment stores and the chain stores,
to say nothing of the Five and
Tens" are generally able to make
their way despite the periodic
bDdeIIlS VI tilhl S"ctp
over their more pretentious brethren.
This is doubtless because they cater
to the necessities Of the modest pur.
chaser, and their sales are therefore
constant to a larger degree than the
big" stores. The interest Of the
stock market in this matter is due
to the fact that a number of them
are listed on the exchange. and at
times are actively dealt in. The
monthly and quarterly statements
tell the story more eloquently than
all the glowing publicity matter"
that is issued by them. This year
the four leading systems Of chain
stores reported gross business Of
S23,s73 900, compared with s21 ,076.-
0OO in the same month last year. and
these figures may be accepted as
indicating the dgree of general busi-
ness progress Of the country in the
period under review. The road TO
prosperity is paved with fair prices
and better purchasing power for the
working man. and such conditions
are now about to be ushered In. The
stock market has been predicting
this outlook so plainly that II re.
| auires no philosopher to discern the
| fact

NEW YORK. July 26.-Reflecting
general approval Of the Govern
ment's plans for alleviating the ef'
fects of the coal and railroad strikes,
the stock market was firm and ac'
tive in the early trading today, specu.
lative favorites signalizing the event
by advances of as high as two points
in initial prices. The improvement
was only Temporary, however, for
before the end OF the first hour the
market was surfeited with selling or
ders which halted the advance In
some sections Of the market and
brought about another reaction In
others, more particularly the oil
stocks.
Commentators in the market place
have been in agreement that there
Is a remarkable dearth of public in,
terest and activity in speculative
stocks. and that therefore price
movements are again determined
largely by activities OF the profes.
sionals.
The rather abrupt reaction from
Mondays decline would seem to sub
stantiate these views, to say nothing
Of the attacks directed In today's ses
sion against a few Of the speculative
issues which made a considerable ad'
vance yesterday afternoon.
Bears Attack Pierce Arrow.
Pierce Arrow and Chandler were
again the objects of bearish attacks,
Pierce Arrow preferred selling down
A - hn

sold off IN to 64x. Studebaker got
down from 135k to 1891 and Cruel
Bile from SSH to SAN. Most of tho
active steel stocks lost point or
more on the average, and the sanln
was true of the rails, coppers and
equipments, while losses In the oil
group were a little heavier.
Mexican Seaboard, stock and cer'
tificates. were again exposed to heavy
selling, the stock losing about 2&at
rs and the certificates 2h at 24k.
Sugar stocks maintained their
buoyancy today, Cuban American
making a new high In the move al

Cane preferred at 40x, and Manatit

sugar from Cuba last week were
123,23l tons against 2S,12s in the
same week last year.
Railroads Inactive.
Railroad stocks were not very
active in the morning session. and
there were few indications of ad
vancing tendencies In this section
New York Central sold at s5A: st

Such Of the June statements OF
railroad earnings as have thus far
been made public show a decrease ir
gross revenue as compared with
other months Of this year, but an IN
crease over the same period last
year; New York Central reported net
in June amounting to $6,00S. .492, al
compared with $5.5l7,555 in June

Of $4,994,699. or Sl,Sl3,9S4 in exces.

the Union Pacific's net earnings de
creased 22.4 per cent.

Step Taken to Redeem About

copyright, 1922. by Cosmopolitan News

NEW YORK, July 26.-Another
step In the plans Of the Treasury
Department for taking care Of the
short term war debts has been an
nounced by Secretary Mellon. He
now proposes to call for redemption
on December IS. 1922, $1,000. .000. 900
par value of the AZ per cent Vic.
tory notes which mature May 20,
1923, but which are redeemable
before that date. This leaves about
the same amount outstanding and
these will doubtless receive atten-
ton later In the year.
At the same time the Federal
Treasury will offer a new issue
Of four.year AZ per cent Treasury
notes, dated August /, 1929, and
due December Is. 1920, in the
amount of $500, 900 900, with right
reserved to allot additional notes to
a limited amount to the extent that
the Victory notes are rendered in
payment.
Considering the fact that out
standing Liberty bonds bearing "A
per cent interest are snapped up at
prices as high as 101.74, II Is some.
what surprising that the new Gov.
ernment bonds should carry such
a high coupon as ~ per cent. The
expectation of the financial district
was that the new bonds would not
bear a higher than per cent
coupon, at which rate II is felt that
large Issue easily be absorbed.
The two operations referred to win
probably be all that the Treasury
Department will need to announce
until a date later in the year.
