Moody's Forecast

Moody's Weekly Review of Finan-
cal Conditions in its current issue
says in part:
THE money market is in a very
comfortable position. BY the end
OF the first week of January the
year-end financing should be com
pleted, and there should be def
mite underlying trend toward lower
interest rates.
Bond prices may or may not re-
spoIId to cheaper money, depending
upon whether the public demand
for bonds increases or diminlshes.
II is this public demand rather than
interest rates that controls the
bond market, and quite often
cheaper money means less profit
able trade. and smaller demand
for bonds.
"If; however, trade activity and
with It commodity prices decline
Tor a few months, this would neces-
sarily mean the release of working
capital from active employment in
production and commerce. There
upon such idle working capital
would doubtless seek investment in
the bond market, and tend to stiffen
prices

SAFETY AGAINST
VOLCANOES URGED
Scientists Explain Measures,
to Prevent Serious Loss
of Life.

GENEVA, March q. 1870 precau-
tionary measures to prevent loss of
life from volcanic disaster are being
urged by European scientists.
In paper published by the Geo
graphical Society of Geneva DIR. AL
bert Brun stresses close scientific OBJ
servation Of all the phenomena at
tending active volcanoes as the best
means of guarding against. catastro-
phr He mentions the study of earth
alakes at the volcanoes, registration
of sound waves, chemical analysis of
gas, use of aviators for reconnoiter-
ing and the steady observation of the
performances of craters and hot
springs as necessary means of being
foreWarned for trouble.
DIR. Karl Sapper of the University
of MurZberg maintains, on the other
hand. that the disturbances charac-
teristic of active volcanoes, such as
appearance of new vents, underground
noises, earth tremors, exhalation of
gas, and the like, are not sufficient
evidence of "A coming eruption. He
cites CotopaXi, Eilauea, Keloet and
others as eruptions that have broken
out without any such advance warn
been killed by volcanoes in the last
four centuries, 90 per cent of which
were about the Pacific, the maximum
loss having occurred by volcanoes
erupting only once with much yio-
lence and after a period of long mac.
tivity.
DR.. Sapper advocates as the most
effective method of attack popular
propaganda and education of the pub.
lie in the school concerning precau-
tions, building sites, steep roofs to
shed ash and readiness to migrate in
case of danger. Valley bottoms, the
natural paths of the lava flows, should
be avoided as places in which to settle.
Governmental insurance reserves and
rehabilitation are the only means of
meeting the emergency of famine and
disease caused by the heavy fall of
ash, destructive TO plant and animal
life alike.
Already some results of the prog
ress in knowledge and education about
volcanology have been seen in the
handling of the Vesuvius and Etna
eruptions. Still better preparation
and protection were in evidence at
Sakurajima. in Japan. Java and
Hawaii have cared for disasters with
science and forethought, and many of
the countries which have active vol
canoes within their confines are de-
voting attention to careful building.

crisis as never before
