The Business Outlook

The business year of 1924 mas seen two con
s%tructive Developments of. the first magnitude,
says Albert II. Wiggin, president of the Chase
Natiokal Bank of New York City. The first Is
the rapid rise in the prices OF agricultural com
modities, which has put the farming regions gen
orally into better financial position than they
have occupied for several years and has gone
far toward restoring the buying power of the
agricultural regions and toward restoring the
balance between agriculture and industry. 1t was
depression of agriculture more than any other
thing which checked the upward move of the win
ter of 19221923 and which retarded general bust
ness during the latter half of 1923 and the first
half of 1921. The rise in agricultural prices in
1921 was due primarily TO the crop failure in
Canada and shortages in agricultural production
in much of the rest of the world outside the
United State. 1t was thus caused by a %restric-
ton OF supply which We cannot expect TO be per-
manent. Fortunately the future holds forth the
iustifiable expectation of an increase in demand
The second great constructive development is
dhe Inauguration of the Dawes Plan i'll Europe,
the restoration of confidence in Europe, the In
aucurntion of financial reform in important
European countries, the return of a number of
important European exchange rates to par, or
close to par, and the greatly improved political
relations among the important countries Of Eu-
rope. We may reasonably expect from these de
yelopments an improved standard of life in Eu-
rope, an increased consumption of grains and
meats in the countries of Europe which have been
most impoverished and consequently, such an in
creased demand for grains and meats next year
as will maintain the improved position of our
farmers even though next years haryests should
he substantially larger than this years. Sound
business rests on a sound industrial balance. A
-one-sided prosperity involving only a portion of
our producers cannot go very far. A business sit
uation, however, in which farmers, railroads
manufacturers, mining interests and other pro-
ducers OF raw materials all have their share
Of profitable activity, is wholesome and can be
trusted TO last a long time. The banker is inter.
ested in the success of all Of his customers and
the banker is interested IN seeing a sound bal
ance among the productive activities

Safety First

Under the caption, For Safer Driving In
Pueblo" the Pueblo StarJournal has the fol
lowing editorial which will apply to Casper and
other cities:
every automobile driver in Pueblo ought to
cooperate with the city officials and organiza-
tons In charge of the safer driving campaign
which begins today. More than 10000 deaths oc-
cur annually In this country as a result of au-
tomobile driving, and the injured list amounts to
more thousands. 1t is an appalling record, and
viii become worse If no steps are taken to i'm
prove conditions.
The key TO the entire problem Is the individ.
ual driver. The man at the wheel holds life or
death III his grasp, the result depending upon
whether he is careful, reckless or inclind to
take chances. The campaign in Pueblo Is intended
TO impress upon everp person the necessity for
safe driving, und if this can DO brought about
there Will be II decided decrease In the number
of collisions Exercise of extreme care
and caution viii prevent most of the fatal auto
mobile accidents in this country. Playing IL safe
is the best policy for the automobile driver to
follow, and this Is the aim of the campaign be
ing winged among the motorists.
'Recless speed at street Intersections, failure
to observe traffic rules and carelessness arc pro.
life causes of automobile accidents. No matter
how vigorously the traffic laws are enforced
the problem Of automobile fatalities and acct
dents Will never be solved without cooperation
by the motorist. Safe driving Is the best way of
bringing this coperation about, und safe driy.
ing will not be attained without constant vigil
anee on the part Of the driver"

Hays Making Sunshine

There are few who would venture to contest
VIII II. Hays knowledge of the American pub
lie, says the Washington Post. His memorable
career as national chairman during a period
when his fellow countrymen were obliged to turn
away from prophecy and get down TO the very
realities, the why and the wherefore of their ex.
lstence, gave him unprecedented opportunity to
observe them.
lie stood, for four years, at the very center
Of a web which stretched TO the utmost corners
Of the United States, and he became the spirit
Of coordination between all forces, truly all
things to all Americans.
II was but natural, therefore, that when a
great recreational institution found that its mis-
sion was In danger Of being thwarted through
lack o! a controlling, modifying influence, it
should turn, for a solution of its difficulties, to
the one man who seemed most likely to under
stand them.
~ Hence in the enlightenment which sometimes
follows despair the great moving.p picture mag.
mates voluntarily came together and formed the
Moving-Picture Producers and Distributors Of
America, Incorporated, and placed their fate
In the hands of 9lr. Hays. They have had little
reason, in the three years which have since ell
sued, TO regret their decision.
The task which deyolyed upon Mr.. Hays made
Hercules experiment with the Augean stables
seem like the merest pastime. From their earliest
days, the movies were accorded a special license
in plot and atmosphere partly, no doubt, because
Of their novelty which made the public forget
the tests which 10 customarily applies TO the leg
itimate stage. Moreover, the pictures of people and
surroundings given 80 much more wildly than
the footlights can ever hope to reflect, made IL
easy for producers to create another world, which
so far as complete divorce from reality was con.
cerned, they did to the queens taste. The com.
monest sort Of restraint was pitched overheard
and audiences the world over reyelled In surrept
itious glimpses of the forbidden.
With the increase of efficiency IN production
and the rapid accumulation of profits, producers
were able TO hire extraordinary talent for their
pictures, give them mdreamed-o lavishness Of
scene and leave nothing worth thinking of TO the
Imagination of their audiences. A decade or so
of this soon resolved the industry into a fever.
ish competition in suggestiveness to tickle the
fancy Of a public which il could not afford 20

At Last Sugar Drops

Refiners of sugar, during the last few days,
have bowed to the inevitable and have reduced
the price of cane sugar, fine graduated, to the
domestic trade, to a price closely ap~proximating
that at which beet refined can be bought. The re-
finers now quote six and one-quarter cents a
pound (six and one-eighth cents nett, while beet
sugar producers are pressing their goods on the
market at Cos cents Il pound 1929 cents nett
This is a decided drop in price by the eastern
refiners but has been indicated for weeks. In
fact, it has been remarkable that they have been
able to hold up the price so long in the face of
repeated reports of record world crops and in
the face of the competition of beet sugar pro
ducers, who have been rushing their sugar TO
market in advance of the coming large crop of
raw sugar from Cuba.
The situation long ago indicated a reduction
of from one cent to two cents a pound in prices
of cane sugar to the domestic wholesale trade
yet the price was maintained long after the price
of raw sugar had dropped, and when export
prices had declined below the equivalent of six
cents II pound.
The president has not announced a reduction
of the sugar tariff and evidence Is not lacking
that he does not intend to make such an an
nouncement. So at last, the price of sugar to
the domestic trade has dropped of its own
weight because of world crop conditions. And,
seemingly the end is not yet.
