.SNAPPEDGERMAN
LOAN IN A JIFFY
Scramble on the Stock Exchange for
$1lO,000,0O Issue of Bonds Is Said
To Break the Record.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-Germany's
reconstruction loan, $1l0,000,000 of
which was offered in the American
market by Morgan syndicate,
brought the biggest most impressive
popular response of any bond issue
floated in the United States since the
Victory loan was sold by the treas
ury in 1918. Actual subscriptions ex-
ceeded 00,000000, and, when all re-
turns are tabulated, may approach
ST ,000,000,000. This aggregate does not
measure the real demand, however,
since many banks and investment
houses were turning away applicants
from the start OF business.
Local bankers explained the heavy
demand for the bonds as the result Of
the conception of the loan in the pop
ular mind as an underlying lien on
Germany and of the belief that the
bonds we're cheap.
Huge Projects Afoot for Europe.
The instantaneous success of the
German loan, the organization of the
100000 American and Continental
Corporation to finance German and
European industry, the announcement
of a $2,500,000 acceptance credit to
the Ruhr Coal Syndicate and the
speeding up of projects for other Eu-
ropean financing demonstrates the
huge extent to which the Dawes plan
and American capital are opening up
American trade and investment oppor-
tunities on the continent
The first big movement of Ameri-
can capital is expected to be- into Ger
many and, in the opinion of the bank
ers, will result in direct stimulus to
exports from the United States to that
country. But plans now afoot also
embrace loans to other governments
and industries in other countries that
will be equally forceful in influencing
American prosperity.

STILL HIGHER TAXES
ARE TO BE EXPECTED
BIG SLUMP IN GOVERNMENT
REVENUE UNDER LAW PASS
ED BY CONGRESS.

WASHINGTON, d. C.-Higher
taxes on small incomes will again be
necessary if wealth continues its
trend into tax exempt securities under
the new tax law G. B. Winston, under
secretary of the treasury, said today
Federal revenues are decreasing I'M
der the new law and tax reform is
urgently needed to enable the govern
ment to raise enough money to meet
the current rate of expenses, Winston
said.
At least $1,000000,000 went into tax
exempt securities during the past
month, bringing their total to an ex-
cess of $13,000,000000, Winston de-
clared
Meanwhile revenues have slumped
Where last year $429,895, 900 was col
lected in the fiscal year up to October
10th, only $411,764,003 have been col
lected this year Revenues for the
first 10 days of this month were only
$10,040,063, as against $13,350,302 III
the same 10 days last year.
Small Income May Be Hit.
This decline cuts close to the mar
gin between a federal surplus and {
deficit
The surplus upon which actual ta1
reduction must be based this year il
very small, indicating that there is lit
tie prospect of further reduction
anything, increases.
"A continuance of the trend thus
disclosed, with an acceleration by
reason of the increase in the max
imum rate from rs to 40 per cent, viii
soon eliminate this source of revenue
and with it the revenue that the state
receives from the same source. This
means higher direct taxation for the
state" Winston declared.
+ The high rate of inheritance taxes
increased by congress from rs to &C
per cent, is causing a tremendous
dropping off i'll revenue from this
source, Winston said. In the last -four
years, under the Is per cent tax the
revenue has decreased by one third.
