gation was but boil on the body polite whereas the real source of danger lies in the neglect that is evidenced by the pernicious anemia with which the small towns and cities of our land are politically dying. The old zeal for honesty anl efficiency, for the conservation and protection of life, which imbued the founders of this democracy, must be restored and be reaffirmed by the church and her followers.
 "We must become so practical that we shall evidence our faith by our appearance at the polls and by the quality and intelligence of our vote. The church is not to end with pray CTS for better day in our halls of government and for better men in positions of leadership in high places, but she must work to attain these ends. We are not merely to add laws to our books but preach observance and practice observance"

with the intent to build barriers be- tween those who differ in creed, in degree of wealth, in race and in quality of mind.
 "Our Christ was no respecter of persons. He drew no line. The size of ones pocketbook was of no interest to Him. He dined with pub licans and with sinners. Essential and fundamental human worth were His regard and He valued and re- spected the personality, the individ- uality, the soul of every man, woman and child. His disciples were humble men. He came for the Jews and for the Gentle, for the rich and the poor, for those of high and of low estate. He merely asked that they follow Him, that they believe in Him and that they practice His Word.
 '"There are sinister movements in American life, some of which mas querade falsely beneath the titles of American and Christian which are neither American or Christian and those camouflaged bearers of hate and of discord must be openly and fearlessly opposed by the church of Christ if His peace is to prevail throughout this nation.
 Peace Needed in Industry
 "Christ and His peace are needed in the industrial world. There is an apparent increase in the use of the spirit of Jesus in this field. Here and there we hear and see the Golden Rule applied by serious-minded men, many of whom sincerely advocate it's adoption as a fundamental Chris tian principle in the dealings of men who make up the vast industrial mechanism that feeds, clothes and transports America. But so much remains to be done. Strikes, costly in life and in money, unemployment, the labor of little children, an old age of poverty, an insufficient wage, spirit of enmity between employer and employe and an attitude of sus- picion on the part of the great buy ing public are symptoms of a social disease badly in need of the peace of our Lord.
 "We have yet to learn that the welfare, the happiness, the prosperity of the man in overalls, the investor, the owner, the engineer who guides the train the farmer, the babe who drinks his milk, the housewife who prepares the food, those who wear and those who make garments, are embroidered together in a garment of necessity that demands that they all work together in harmony lest they will perish. The church must lead here in the preaching of that gospel which affords the only under girding principle that will make for

French Bonds Again.

The attention attracted by recent
events in France is sufficient excuse
for taking up again the problem of
French bonds. Inquiries keep pour
ing in from holders of French Sc
curities who are anxious to know
what to do. They have witnessed with
concern the large fluctuations in mar
ket price of their holdings. They want
to know whether further depreciation
Is probable, and, if so. whether they
should dispose of their bonds regard
less of the original cost.
This is a difficult problem, and no
unequivocal answer can be given to
these questions. There are, however,
some considerations which may prove
helpful.
In the first place the ups and downs
of the franc are of only sentimental
Importance as far French dollar
bonds are concerned. Theoretically
the franc could go the way of the
mark without affecting the value of
French dollar securities. Only as a
fall in the franc reflects decrease in

France borrowed from sources outside
it's own borders that brought about
the recent French financial strain, but
rather the piling up of loan upon loan

themselves. There are only two points
to be covered in the case Of any for

the other Is the Willingness Of the

internal debt there is no question

would ruin French chances of further
accommodation in the United States,
which is now the chief credit reservoir
of the whole world. No sane French
government would take any such
course.

BUTTER PRICES STEADY.
Possibility of Heavy Supplies
Keeps Market Down,

CHICAGO. May "a sensitive and
nervous condition prevailed in the but
ter markets during the week. Buyers
were cautious and sellers held the
sentiment that lower prices would
result in a more favorable condition
through freer movement.
Available information pointed to a
heavy Spring production. but one that
would possibly not reach the peak of
last year. Weather and feed condi.
tons were reported as ideal. Posi-
bility of heavy supplies in the near
future was considered partly re-
sponsible for the market situation.
Because medium and lower scoring
lots were not plentiful and in active
demand, a fairly close price range was
maintained among the various grades.
Closing wholesale prices and range, go
score, follows:
Chicago, one-half lower at 40; New
York, unchanged at AZ: Boston, one
half lower at 43; Philadelphia, one.
half highre at 43.

cry in farm prices is revealed in the
Government report on Winter wheat
as of the first of May. The indica-
tons are for a crop of 444, 1913 GOO
bushels, which, by recent standards,
is very small. The comparison is
made with an estimated total of Ala,

of 5S5 ,266. 900.
Sugar Market Down Too.
At 212 cents pound raw sugar is
below the average of prewar years.
The 2-cent level was broken during
the slump of 1921 and during the ex-
ceptional overproduction in 1913 and
1914. Previous to then no such low
prices have been seen since the period
between 1901 and 1904
Dividend prospects on sugar stocks
have manifestly dwindled
From the Bureau of Mines figures
1t is calculated that domestic con-
sumption of gasoline increased during
March 81 per cent, as compared with
1874, While exports surpassed all for
mer totals.
This strengthens the statement that
the oil position is on the mend de-
spite the recent price cutting. These
price cuts, occurring in New York and
parts of New England, have seem
ingly been merely in the nature Of
local adjustments.
Utilities Being Revalued.
The remarkable advance in the pub
lie utility group has been an indica-
ton that the utility securities here
tofore had not been properly valued
The public had not appreciated the
cisions upholding the right of these
companies TO earn a fair return on
capital invested. 1t had not fully rec
ognized the tendency toward steady
expansion of earnings because of the
growth in the population of the COM
munities served. and because of the
absence of competition.
Finally, there is the added feature
of the tendency in the public utility
field, the same as among the rail-
roads toward a consolidation into
fewer and larger units.
Investment Issues Stronger.
The strength of the investment sec.
ton. both bonds and stocks, where
many new high prices have been
made, has been an important incident
of the week. 1t has given a better
background TO the stock market than
that which ii had in January when

ment interest was waning Sterling

cent and a half of the parity. For all
practical purposes, it is back to

COFFEE YIELD KEPT
SECRET IN BRAZIL
Dealers Here Claim Facts
Are Withheld to Bolster
Up Present Prices.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, May 9.-Consumers of
coffee. and they represent a large part
of the population of this country, are
getting so they pay little, IL any, at
tention to what they hear of the coffee
market and very little to what they
see with their own eyes.
Sentiment among wholesalers. re-
tailers and spectators Is badly mixed
so far as the coffee situation is con-
cerned. Some traders say that hedges
have been put out against all kinds of
coffee. and that the future market is
oversold, when the amount of coffee
available for tender against futures is
considered. They add that roasters'
stocks are small, and contend the lat
ter must enter the market again soon.
Demand, especially from the Middle
West, they say, is improving.
New Crop Really Ready.
The new crop will begin to move in
July, and those traders who take the
opposite view maintain that the Bra
lillian output will be of at least fair
size. They even talk of 10 900 900 bags
province which furnishes the larger
part of the coffee consumed in Amer
lea.
The bulls say Brazil has been sup
porting her market and will only sell
at prices acceptable to growers there.
Any sign of Improvement such as
might be caused by competitive bid
ding between jobbers and roadsters,
they maintain, would be followed by
a rise in prices. This in turn would
certainly cause a rush of shorts to
cover.
The bears allege, on the other hand.
that the Brazilian growers are exer-
cfsing strict censorship on news as
to the size of the coming crop and
allowing nothing to get out that will
substantiate rumors that production
will be large.
Prices have eased off decidedly this
week. Heretofore whenever the mar
ket has threatened to become really
weak, European support has
usually made it's appearance.
Buying Only i'm Small Lots.
AS a result of this wide divergence
in opinion. the roasters. jobbers and
retailers, down to the corner neigh
borhood grocery, are buying from
hand-to-mouth, or. rather, from sack
to cup. Everybody is waiting to see
which way the price cat will jump.
and buying no more in the meantime
than actual requirements make nee
essary.
Also as a result of the uncertainty
which has been engendered roasters
and dealers are making increased use
of the other South and Central Ameri-
can coffees. These have not the hold
on the public taste which has been
gained by the Santos products, but
they are rapidly growing in popu-
larity.
Mexican Yield Grows.
The Mexican yield from the state Of
Vera Cruz is making rapid strides in
world markets. Guatemala, having
recovered from a wild period of coffee
speculation, is devotinE every energy
toward increasing production. Colon.
bia and Costa Rica have found
steady market for their crops, and
Jamaica, after a period of years when
the trees were badly damaged by hur-
ricanes. is rapidly reaching a point
where her coffee production is a fac
tor in the trade with Canada and
Great Britain.

special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, May 9.-Wall Street
operations during the last week have
had two things chiefly in mind. The
first Is that the market considerably
over-discounted in the early Winter
such Improvement in outside business
as had occurred since election day.
Consequently the disposition was to
avoid repetition of this mistake
winch had to be corrected by an ex-
tenslve and rather severe decline on
the Stock Exchange in the latter half
OF February and through March.
The second point is that trade con-
oltlons on the whole are better than
they were a fortnight ago, yet are
rar from assuming an aspect which
would encourage any big speculative
revival.
Market Moves Cautiously.
The result is that the stock market
mas been proceeding cautiously. At
times 1t has appeared to be develop
Ing more interest, accompanied by
increasing business. Still a compari-
son between the prices at the end
or the past week and at the end of
the week before shows in a large
part of the list no important change.

verging upon public utility securities,
motors, and few of the rails. Else
where the market has not moved far.
1t is waiting to see how the situation
Will unfold in lines of industry which

Commodity Prices Lower.
r. G.. Dun & Co. Review, speaking
of the fifteenth consecutive week of
declining wholesale quotations, says
that the continued downward trend
of prices reflects the increased com
petition for orders, production hav-
ing run beyond consumption" On
the other hand, 1t refers to an adj
justment of output being under way
which may before long have a
steadying effect upon the markets"
This is precisely the sort of condi-
ton which the Wall Street dealings
have been picturing. The interpreta-
ton of this is that confidence in the
industrial outlook has returned, but
that no grounds are seen for enthu-
siasm.
