tion), Washington. D. C., on rag
Day, June IA. 1928, composed Of dele
gates from the principal national
patriotic, fraternal, educational and
civic organization and adopted a flag
code. based on the L. S. War Depart
ment flag circular.
"The flag should be displayed from
sunrise to sunset only, on between
such hours as designated by proper
authority on national or state holl-
days, and on historic occasions. The
flag should always be hoisted briskly
and lowered slowly and ceremonl-
ously.'
"When the flag is displayed from a
staff projecting horizontally or al an
angle from the window sill, balcony or
front of a building. the pnion OF the
flag should go clear to the head OF Jhe
staff. unless the flag is at half mast.
.When a flag Of the United States
is displayed other than flown from
staff. it should be displayed fiat,

whether indoors or out. When dis
played either horizontally or vertically
against wall, the union should be
uppermost, and to the flags right, i. e.,
to the left of the observer
when displayed in a window it
should be displayed in the same way,
that is, with the union of the blue field
to the left of the observer in the
street. When festoons or drapings of
blue, white and red are desired, bunt-
ing should be used. but never the
flag"
At the National Flag Conference a
change was made in the wording of
the pledge of the Flag" as follows.
81 pledge allegiance to the Flag of
the United States and to the Republic
for which it stands, one nation indi-
visible with Liberty and Justice for
all"

GREAT Difference
IN INDIANA COAL
Public Should Know Differ
ence In Local Coal Output,

Never has there been so much In
diana and Illinois coal used in In

difficulty IN getting coal from out

surer Of the Polar Ice and Fuel Com
pan. says:
"A person often orders Indiana or
Illinois coal, not specifying any par
ticular grade. When the cheaper
Grades are delivered he finds them
unsatisfactory.
Veins four and six, found in
Sullivan and Green Counties, furnish
the best grades OF Indiana coal. In
Illinois, the coal from the Harrisburg
and Franklin districts furnishes the
best grades. Even these grades vary
in quality, but any coal from veins
four and SIX. will be superior to coal
from the other Indiana regions.
THE general public should realize
that coal is retailed at a small margin

RISE IN DISCOUNT
RATE ON MONEY
IS SIGNIFICANT
Rapid Expansion in Business
Means Increased Demand
for Funds,
BY DIR. LEWIS IIANEY
Director Bureau Business Research,
New York University.

written Tor the United FinanciaD 49,
NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-If 1 were
asked to pick out last weeks most
significant event in the business world
! would say without hesitation. the
advance in the discount rate"
The Federal reserve banks in New
York and Boston have raised their
charge for lending on commercial
paper from 4 to AZ per cent. This
is the first advance since rates We're
reduced during the period Of dehation
and falling prices in 1920.
The circumstances are plain. Bust
ness has been rapidly expanding and
this has meant an increased demand
for funds.
Money IS no longer drug on the
market.
II fact. commercial interest rates
on the best paper in the East have
been at Al per cent for several weeks.
Stock Speculation Grave
Speculation on the stock market has
been on the increase and we have
had an extraordinary number Of mil
Hon-share days. As a result the In
terest rates in the call loans" which
are made to stock spectators has
been marked UP to per cent and
even 6 per cent OF late.
Under such circumstances the
banks have been able to borrow funds
from the Federal reserve banks at
: per cent and lend at per cent,
thus clearing at least per cent. This
explains the recent increases in wills
discounted" in the Federal reserve
systems statement. This Is easy
money" in every sense of the word
Ineed, Il has encouraged infauonary
tendencies.
One of the best indicators of the
business cycle is the course Of inter
est rates. An August last year the
rate on commercial paper reached a
minimum and since then has steadily
increased to 40 per cent This, being
interpreted, means that we are now
Wen started in the upward ewing Of
the cycle.
Net Earnings Better
BUSINESS men can now make more
money. Net earnings are better. The
demand for funds viii not be checked
~ the action of the reserve banks.
It IS merely a timely warning that
az we move up in the business cycle
there come times Of strained credit
Just now the volume Of production IS
50 large that we are approaching a
time when one Of three things must
happen:
l. Prices must move up faster than
has been the case during the last two
months.
g. Wages must come down.
g. We win have a decrease IN the
ret earnings or many businesses and
q considerable reaction in stocks.
