DAYTON. Ohio, April 1S CP.-
James NJ Cox. Democratic candidate
for President in 1920, commented to-
day as follows on the statement by
Gov. Al Smith of New York: Gov.
Smiths statement is a straightfor-
ward response to every question
raised by Mr.. Marshall The en-
cyclicals quoted in the interrogatory,
in the main, were related to times
and places when and where the
church was the state. but Gov. Smith
brings discussion of this phase of
the matter to an end by declaring
that no order of any church has au-
thority in matters of state and has
never been recognized by him as such.
HE simplifies the whole discussion
by the bold statement that the church
has to do with spiritual affairs only.
/ think it is the ablest document, in
my time, at least, upon this subject" !"

DIRECT STOCK SALES

The New Haven Railroad. issuing $4,000 900 of pre-
erred stock is going to offer it direct to the investors
without any underwriting. That to say bank will
insure the sale of the stock and it to the
at price giving it profit for its services.
The direct disposal of this issue by the railroad is
ordered for the sake of economy by the Interstate
Commerce Commission, and represents of the
rious branches of activity in which the commits
sion is engaging The saving in this is expected
to be about per cent nearly S1000,000.
That saving may go to the present of the
railroad, or to the stockholders may be divided
between them. Ultimately any such economy tends
to benefit the entire public.
Most underwriting is presumably legitimate and
essary There have been EXCEPTIONS however and vast
profits have been made by underwriting firms in many
where the securities could have been marketed

is to eliminate the mid6leman in selling securities, as
