DECREASE IN LUMBER
EXPORTS IS FORECAST
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Additional grief may accrue to the
lumber industry Of this country II
rumors reaching this country from
Europe are founded ON fact.
It has been ofhctally reported to the
Government that in the Background Of
the Warsaw Conference, held late in
June between Poland, Estonia, Finland,
Latvis, Norway, Sweden and Russia, was
the idea Of fixing different export
lumber quotas for Finland, Sweden and
Russia.
The total world export trade of
lumber amounts to approximately
16, 200, 000,00 feet, of which the coun-
tries named above are involved to the
extent Of 12,000,000,OO0 feet. The
United States shares IN world exports
to the extent of only 5000, 900, 900 feet.
Hence, 1t Is readily seen this country's
impotent were it to be excluded in an
export agreement.
A newspaper interview with one Of
the French representatives to the War
saw Conference reveals the parley was
of an informatory character and
limited to the present situation Of the
lumber markets.
The final report of the conference is
said to embody the following ideas:
Present crisis due to disproportion be-
tween demand and supply; lack Of re-
liable lumber statistics renders crisis
more severe; isolated efforts of different
lumber exporting countries can not
alleviate the situation because of Diff
ferent methods employed; international
cooperation Is necessary TO improve
present situation and avoid future diff
ficulties; countries not represented at
this Warsaw Conference should be in
vited to take part in any action decided
upon, and an agreement should be
reached regarding uniform lumber sta
tistics and report on this subject
should be circulated to interested
countries"

Brokers' Comment

NEW YORK, August 4.-Brokers are
taking various views OF the current
stock market some Of today's comments
follow:
Charles d. Barney q Cove feel
that yesterdays Developments were en-
couraging. We had expected further
attempts TO unsettle the stocks, which
were prominent in last weeks decline.
while yesterdays drive against them
was not conspicuousIy successful, we
still believe 1t is conservative to look
for additional efforts to depresS them
further over the next few days. How
ever, on the basis OF yesterdays per-
Torrance Of the general market We
doubt that even successful drive
against these stocks win precipitate a
general break.
Redmond g. Co.-The market is ap-
parertly going through period Of re-
adjustment In which the quoted values
Of many stocks are being brought into
line with current earnings and dividend
returns and future prospects, and the
recent market action Of some OF the
high priced stocks indicate quite clear
" that 1t has not been completed. 1t
would be logical to expect the beginning
Of q Fall rally sometime this month.
but until some of the current uneer-
ta1ntteS are cleared up, especially IN
Europe. we doubt that an upward move
nient viii carry very far.
jackson Brothers, Boesel & CO.
Based on the possibilities of some sea-
sona1 business improvement by Fall or
early Winter it Is our view that the
best buying opportunities at current
levels are to be found in the stocks Of
electric power compates. concerns
engaged In retail trade and the chem
zeal stocks. Although railroads should
derive some benefits from moving the
crops. their condition Is still so pre-
eari0us from an earnings standpoint
that buying commitments may be de-
lAyed some time longer.
Shields a. Co.-The professional ele-
rnent would like to see better market
but don't know any good reason why
there should be one. Bankers show
little interest and the public Is not
likely to be attracted again until q real
investment level brings increasing alb
e0rption. In the meantime group work
may spasmodically interrupt the list's
decline 70 attractive buying zone.

BRIDGE TOLL RECEIPTS

Tne Columbia Wrig hLSville
bridge over the Susquehanna
river, connecting Lancaster
and York counties, has been
open to traffic one year. In the
365 days the toll has amounted
to 1856, 508.60. This means an
average of about $1,OO1 a day.
The cost of operating the
bridge has been $63,039.81.
Interest on the bonded debt
amounts to $4,000 for the
year. There is left a balance
Of 1888, 468.79 to apply to the
sinking fund.
The investment of $3,OOO,OOO
in the building of the bridge
has proven a good one for York
and Lancaster counties, and
saves thousands of people a
year from long waiting, such as
was the case when the railroad
bridge was used for vehicle
traffic.-Quarryville Sun.

ASK FOR SIDE WALK TO
PERRYVILLE SCHOOL

Residents of the town OF
Perryville appeared before the
County Commissioners at their
meeting last week, to urge that
a sidewalk be constructed from
the High School,. extending to
Broad Street. Increased traffic
has made it unsafe for those
attending the school. The only
cost to the county would be the
construction of the walk, as no
right of ways need be purchas-
ed, due to the fact that q strip
twenty feet in front of each lot
has been reserved.
