AMERICAN FUNDS MAY GO ABROAD
 AT HIGHER RATE
Heavy Migration Of Cap ital Would Slow Up
 Security Markets
By EDWARD J. CONDLON (By Leased Wire To The Age -HeraId)

NEW YORK, July 27.-With trad ing in the various security and com modity markets at the boiling point on many occasions during the week just completed, the question arises as to just how far the rising prices are dis counting domestic business conditions of early autumn and just how much turn for the better in European trade as the result of the threshing out of the many vexing problems at the London conference. The facts in the matter seem to stress the domestic situation. barometer of international thought on the possibilities of an early economic recovery in Europe, it should be the foreign exchange market. And here we find little decided opinion. Aside from the rather notable rise in sterling, the leading continental rates have been content to mark time during the week. The conference is concerned with put ting into effect the Dawes plan for the Fesuscitation of Europe and the set ting up of the machinery for the much discussed German loan.
 At the moment, it is the problem of feeonciling the viewpoints of the 1Ecncn government ana the lnteEna- tional bankers on the question of meas ures to be taken in case of German default which is the chief concern. France stands firmly on her right of separate action against Germany, while the banking contingent will be satis- fled with no less than a first mortgage on Germany.
 Affairs in our financial markets are working out about as prophesied when the first shipments of gold arrived in New York from Europe. The steady flow of the yellow metal has pressed money rates here steadily lower until now they are substantially below those of London and the principal continental money centers. At the same time, our foreign trade has turned rather dull. Higher rates of interest abroad have naturally tended to cut imports in the various countries to a minimum. The next step is the flow of American cap- ital abroad to obtain the higher interest rates. Such a migration of capital would, of course, be temporary, but it would be along the path of least resist ance. And such a movement, if carried to an extreme, would materially slow up our security markets

Fat woman occupied almost entire seat on bus top last night. Bus con ductor, worried, replied to inquirers that one seat was still vacant on top. Those who climbed the winding stairs gave way to rude laughter when they saw the vacant seat. It became a game for the other passengers.
 ''In Chicago" said one, "there is a fat woman who always pays for two seats"
 II got one, too," said the bus con- ductor. She's a good sport. Pays for two seats, even if there is no one else on top. Says she uses lem, and has a right to 'em."

 The bootlegged immigrant pays the downtown importer fifty dollars.
 Of course, the easy way to bootleg immigrants is by boat. A few days ago something about what seemed to be a fishing schooner aroused the at- tention of customs inspectors on pa- trol After they had taken few shots at the schooner her captain brought her to.
 rWhat you gotY' they asked.
 'Nothin'," he said, following the for mula.
 So they found 35 Italians hidden un- der tarpaulins in the hold. The cap tain said that an unknown schooner had drifted alongside in the fog and the Italians had leaped aboard and hidden themselves as related. He will be fined a few dollars, the schooner will be put up at auction and bid in by the bootleggers' ring for a few dollars and the immigrants deported at gov ernment cost. Thus is the majesty of the law maintained.
