The achievements Of the New Germany in trade,
industry and transportation demonstrate an extraordi-
the worlds economic disasters. The German people.
adroitly, tenaciously, have been toiling up the hill out
OF the dark abyss, moved by a logged determination to
regain the commercial position that they enjoyed be-
fore the world was plunged into the maelstrom Of war.
The figures Of German trade are rising. The fig
ures for the first half OF the present year show that
Germany shipped 70 foreign countries S2l2o0oOo0
more than in the corresponding six months Of 1927.
And the surplus Of imports over exports was ~SIs,0O0,-
600 less. German export is increasing more steadily,
and At a greater pace, than that Of any other important
Euroupean country.
The industrial recovery Of Germany is being slim
ulated oy the German organizing genius. the achieve
ments Of German science. the improved industrial
equipment, and the rapid progress Of efficiency in pro-
duction and the effective marshaling Of economic
forces.
The labor situation in Germany leaves much to Be
desired, however. Discomfort and even a certain de-
gree Of menace are discernible in the ranks Of German
~wOrkmen, s~pringing apparently from the feeling that
wages are still more or less out Of line with living
costs and the country's general economic advance.
GERMANY. after the postwar loss Of nearly all her
mercantile marine, has now rebuilt this to 70 per cent
Of its prewar size, possessing today more than S,5000,-
900 gross tons Of shipping and again ranking high az
a maritime nation Of the world. Germany is re-estab-
fishing her worldwide services with modern and eco
nomieal ships. Her shipping lines have effected nu-
merous amalgamations. larger companies absorbing
smaller ones for the purpose Of eliminating COMPETE
tive services and gaining control Of feeder lines
Advancing in civil aviation. last year the total dis
lance flown BY German planes was 100000 miles.
nearly IL times the mileage recorded only four years
earlier. The German state railways last year carried
IS per cent more freight than in 1926. Half a million
motor vehicles are owned In Germany today, against
152,o00 five years. ago.
These facts show that, despite 4 number OF unde-
'niably adverse factors and unfavorable conditions that
still await solution, Germany has been remarkably sue
cessful In coming back" since the desperate days Of
the period ~leis-lezs.

In the Stock Market
lRr Thomson & McKinnonl

NEW YORK, Sept. 20.-Wednes-
day the stock market was a little
more responsive than heretofore to
money conditions. Losses in the
stock list were many. but there was
what we think a favorable side to
the market--the reduced volume
We infer from this that the leaders
evidently thought best not to force
the issue as heretofore. This is
caution. 1t is some of that caution
that we have known that funda-
mentalS will prevail; and what
more important part of the foun-
dalton is there than credit? 1t is
bad now; there is no mistake about
that, and no RELIEF of a permanent
character is promised. However. We
won't lose hope so long as Secretary
Mellon is on the job. AS we see it
we have a condition that does not
call for the professional services OF
the bear, but rather for caution on
the part of the bull. It is with this
thought In mind that we repeat the
suggestion to keep your line within
comfortable limits. .
