NEW YORK, August l5.-The
share list, like the trade situation
during the last week, was mixed.
Stocks went through a series of
fluctuations. some of them violent,
while the news OF important indus
tries and Of commodities was varia-
Bile.
The news was more cheerful in re-
spect to the steel business; a de-
cidedly optimistic tone was evident
in the distributive trades, and con-
sidering the fact that this Is the sea
son Of the year when motor sales
normally fall off. the reports from
the automobile centers were unusu-
ally favorable. In addition. the
weekly railway tonnage figures were
again well In excess OF the million
car mark, and a strong statement for
the week was made by the Federal
Reserve system.
The Darker Side.
On the other hand, plenty of proof
was afforded of the unstable condi-
tions in the oil trade. where prices
for crude petroleum and refined prod
ucts were slashed little encourage
ment was given in the way OF imme-
diate improvement In sugar, and
there were plain signs of distress In
certain branches of the coal indus
try. The decline in wheat and the
losses In cotton were not Of enough
consequence to be reflected in the
stock market.
In the Wall street dealings the be-
lief was expressed that, taken as a
whole. trade conditions we're sound
and that further Improvement in
many lines. could he reasonably ex.
pected. Even the more conservative
element found nothing in the outside
situation to warrant serious concern
They were cautious about making new
commitments in stocks chiefly he
cause they considered prices too high
and for technical reasons thought the
market should sell off.
Weak Places Offset.
AS Dun's Review at the week end
described things. there is a more
general recognition now Of the fact
that the strong points outnumber the
adverse phases, and confidence has
largely replaced the uncertainty and
hesitation that developed during the
second quarter of the year"
The course of stock exchange prices
as a rule followed the trade advices.
To that extent 1t was a discriminating
market When the large oil COM
panies announced reductions of a cent
to 4 cents in gasoline prices, and crude
petroleum in the Pennsylvania district
vas cut 25 cents barrel. oil shares
turned downward and their weakness
was disturbing to the industrials gen.
orally. Before support was encoun-
tered the oils lost points or more on
the average. AS pointed out week
ago. there has been a succession of in
creases in the weekly output of crude
oil and the gasoline price structure
had been very unsatisfactory. The
probs bility Is that when the price re
ductiorls are over and the market has
fully exploited them, the oil shares

Right Now Conditions.

By no stretch of the imagination could
the one making the observations which
follow be termed calamity bowler:
"0ur agriculture is decaying. Farm bank
ruptcies in recent years have increased
more than 900 per cent According to
the Department of Agriculture. the aver
age farmer could have obtained larger
income since 1920 IL he had hired himself
out as a hired man. In considerable por-
tons of the agricultural area farms can
not be sold for the value Of the improve
ments alone"
The quotation is from speech by Frank
o. Lowden. former Governor Of Illinois.
delivered before convention Of advertis-
ing men in New York recently. The Re-
publicanism Of Mr.. Lowden Is unques-
toned he WAS offered and refused the
nomination for vice-presdent on the ticket
with Mr.. Coolidge last year. He is farmer
and knows irst-hand that he has not
ovef-stated the general existing conditions.
He is a business man. and knows that
optimistic reports and the juggling Of ig-
ures tend only to postpone the day when
adequate remedies will be found. He is
an astute politician and he knows that
cheerful report from Washington will not
convince the farmers they are in the
midst Of prosperous times.
Agriculture is basic in the United States
il the farmer is ''of his feed" so to speak
then the entire country is. or soon will
be. in the same predicament. The Re-
publican doctrine Of making the big indus
tries prosperous. on the theory that they
will pass along their prosperity to the
lower levels" is proved fallacy by con-
ditions elaring the United States in the
face right now. And what are the i'm
mediate prospects for relief
Will tariff rates be reducedI

Will tax reductions be with a view to

Democratic War Financing.

II is generally asserted by one set of
partisans. and admitted by opposing par
tisans. that the record made by the National
Democratic Administration in financing
the World War constitutes the most I'M
paralleled achievement in the financial
history Of the world. In detailed review
OF that record, Representative Cordell Hull.
OF Tennessee. who had much to do with
initiating and perfectine war financial
legislation, and who is regarded by his
colleagues Of both parties 10 the House as
one Of the ablest, If not the ablest, ec0no-
mists and financial authorities in that
body, has set forth every phase Of the gov
ernment's war finance activities from the
beginning up TO the end OF the Wilson
Administration, showing not only the cost
OF the war, but the soundness and effective
ness Of the financial legislation from which
large percentage Of the cost was met.
other than borrowed money.
Judge Hull's review shows that, from
April 6. 1917, when we declared war. to
June 80, 1920. the total expenditures.
exclusive Of the principal of the public
debt were $38. $50, 900, 900. and the total
receipts, on the same basis. were Sl6,078,-
100000, from which il is seen that more
than Al per cent OF expenditures were met
by Treasury receipts, other than public
debt receipts, excluding taxes payable in
the latter half Of 1920. Deducting from
expenditures the loans to foreign govern
ments up to June 80, 1920. the cost of the
war to the United States is shown to be
$29.307 100000. Of which SIS per cent
was met by treasury receipts other than
borrowed money.
To get at the exact cost OF the war to
this country. IL is necessary to deduct the
estimated cost Of the government on a
peace basis during the period named,
which is placed at $3.50. 100000. also
TO deduct certain miscellaneous receipts,
due to war conditions. which should have
been merely Offset against like expendi-
tures-$i.625. 900. 600 and likewise de
duct the foreign loans. The net cost OF
the war to this country is thus shown "a
be $24.0lO.OO0.0OO.
The exact percentage of this amount
met by current receipts is shown by deduct.
ing the estimated cost Of the government
on peace basis and the mscellaneou:
receipts due to war conditions from the
total current receipts, which reduces the
