Chile to Improve Her Seaports
Bettermcnts Made Necessary by the High Rail
Rates: Government Will Regulate For
egn Bank Branches

struction of piers in Tome and Pichi-
iemu.
To Regulate Banks
AS elimination to popular feeling.
which has existed in Chile for many
years, against the lack Of control over
the operations of branch Offices Of for
cign banking institutions in the coun-
try, the government recently has is
sued decree prohibiting the further
establishment of agencies as such and
requiring that, in the ruture. banking
houses who desire to open branches or
agencies in Chile must conform to the
old banking law of 1860. This action
has the effect of creating foreign bank
ing agencies into national institutions
with SPECIFIC governmental regulation
as to the disposition and investment OF
capital.
The agitation arose, in large part,
from the feeling that foreign banks
have brought no new capital into the
country. but on the contrary have
shipped out much capital and have con-
Quoted their operations as repositories
for Chilean funds solely on the
strength of their general credit.
The action Of the government in
promulgating the decree was the result
Of recommendation by the Chilean

Commission-a committee Of econon,-
lists and financiers Of national repute.
which recently has been holding ses-
sions in Santiago to study means for
improving the economic and financial
situation of the country
Favor Central Bank
In addition to their recommendation
that the operations of foreign banks be
restricted these gentlemen have also
suggested that the government. create
at once. central institution or bank
with powers to regulate currency. The
need for such an institution frequently
has been discussed and at intervals
projects for its realization have been
debated in Congress, but so far without
any definite action
Nevertheless, recent DEVELOPMENTS in
foreign exchange (the dollar at 1910
pesos and the pound sterling at As
pesos) and the daily evidences OF the
disadvantage of an unstable currency
have given it particular weight. and
although it is not certain what legis-
lation may be passed it is believed that
popular sentiment is so strong in favor
of definite action toward currency
stabilization that Congress will not be
able to avoid taking definite stand.

that it was decided to increase the

and to offer 10000 bales in each Of
the months Of February and March.
The improvement in the wool market
has led, further. to announcement by
the Commonwealth government that
the prohibition of export of wool cx-
cept with the consent Of the British

ton, will be Withdrawn. Apparently
wool growers will now be permitted to
negotiate direct with foreign markets,
but actually the wool will probably
continue to be sold under 3. A. ".

time wool held by B. A. ". r. A. has
been reduced to 1,89O,000 bales. in
cluding Australian, New Zealand and
South African wool. Little Of the war
wool has been offered in Australia.
but considerable amounts have been
disposed of in London and Antwerp.

Profit Taking and
Liquidation Drive
Cotton Prices Down
BulIish Reports on Fertilizer
Sales in the South Fail
to Prevent a Net Decline
of ]0 to 70 Points

A bulisll report on fertilizer sales in
the South failed to stimulate much buy
ing in the cotton market here on Satnr
day and prices were generally lower
under realizing or liquidation. May
contracts broke from 1890 to l772c
and closed at the lowest, with the gem
cral market closing barely steady at
net decline Of 10 to 26 points.
The statement as to fertilizer sales. is
sued by Secretary Hester OF the New Or
leans Cotton Exchange cover@d operations
from tho beginning OF the season up to
February 2s. 1t showed decrease In the
compared with last year and Of 70 per
cent. compared With two years ago.
The decrease reported as compared with
last year less than talked OF in some
quarters recently but carried business 20
n later date and tho figures were generally
considered a bullish feature.
Brokers regarded the decline as reflect
ing an easier technical position following
the advances Of last month but the dis
position to close out long contracts was
doubtless increased by the weakness re-
ported in grain, unsettled foreign ex-
change rates and the smaller volume OF
business in tho cotton goods market. Ac-
tive months sold 8 to 23 points net lower
and closed a the lowest in most instances.
According to a telegram received here
from South Carolina as comment on tho
reported fertilizer sales, farmers in that
section have been deferring purchases as
long as possible in the hope that they
might be able 10 secure requirements at
lover prices on better terms.
iC this is true OF the belt n whole the

Australian Wool Clip Increases

Government to Announce That 1t Will

Tie l92l-'22 Australian wool clip.
secording to telegfaphic advices to the
Department of Commerce, will be 631,-
10000 pounds. which, at an average OF
30 pounds to the bale, means 1913 900
bales. compared with 100000 bales in
I9z0-'2l. The increased production is
explained by the better climatic con-
oitions which have prevailed during
the current season, rain having fallen
copiously throughout the Common
Tealth during the growing season.
The yield of wool is said to have
averaged Cat least in New South Wales
and Nictoria) one pound per sheep
more than in 1o20'21, while less loss
than in ordinary seasons has been suf-
fcred from burning. During dry sea-
sons sheep have to be driven into the
back blocks, where weeds abound, and
= seeking the scarce fodder, get their
eeeces filled with thistles, burrs and
ali sorts of dirt, necessitating CON
siderable carbonizing.
The number of sheep IN Australia,
which on account of the 1919-'20
drought, was reduced b. about 10000
600 head. has recovered to about 49,
100000, the lambing season this spring
hiving been exceptionally good. The
number of sheep and production of
wool are both. however, we'll below the
'ecord figures of 1910, in which year
there were 100000 sheep. which pro-
duced 726.000,000 pounds of wool.
1t IS rather doubtful if that maxi
mum Will again be reached, in view of
the policies adopted by the two states
having the largest grazing areas New
south Wales and Queensland), of
breaking up the big estates. The bill

OF New South Wales empowering the

cipal seapcrts Of tho Pacific coast, and,
toliawinx their completion, the build

This bill is one of the most impor-
'sut projects for the bettermert Of the
sountry's internal conditions consid-

Railway transportation has become
80 costly ir Chile in the last year
through continued rate increases that
me expense OF transporting foodstuffs

Eions OF the south to the industrial
conters Of the north and center of the
country has become almost prohibitive.
Any improvement, therefore, in coast
wise shipping is considered q timely
aid in helping to keep down the rising
'cstiof living, and probably will help to
relieve the crisis in unemployment.

Heretofore coastwise shipping has
becr somewhat unsatisfactory and un-
popular in Chile because of the lack Of
good natural harbors, bat with the in-
provements to be effected such adverse

Wool Prices Advance as

Most of Available Raw Material
Consists of Secured Grade:
Fine Qualities Lacking
Sneclal Dianotch fo nc TrIbnn.

BOSTON, March 4.--Advances in the
prices of cloth by number Of manu-
facturers during the week constitute
one of the important features in the
wool trade. This means a demand for
wool of several. if not all, grades al
higher levels. The supply IS becoming
scarcer and renders more urgent the
need of tariff action. SO that greater
amount will eb available. Prices pre-
vailing cannot continue with the con-
parative dearth of raw material It
would be difficult to find even q small
lot of fine and fine medium staple ter
ritory wool.
Buyers for large concerns express
anxiety in regard to the situation in
Boston. Most Of the available supply
consists OF secured wools, and sales
have taken place at a fair profit.
The demand for piece goods at the
special auction of the American Wool
en- Company in New York is d favor
able omen. In fact, several well known
manufacturers, who have been IN Bos-
ton of late, express confidence IN the
mems wear suitings. Some of the mills
have been securing fall business earlier
than usual. and this. it is understood
vii ltend toward advanced prices.
