IMPROVED BUSINESS
Barred BY ANALYST
Idle Money Returning to Banks
in Steady Flow, Declares
Col. I. P. Ayres.
Hy the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, April l5.--Great i'm
provement in the country's financial
condition during the first quarter of the
year rs noted by Col. Leonard p. Ayres,
business analyst and vice president
of the Cleveland Trust Co., in his
monthly survey Of business today.
He observed that bank suspensions
have almost ceased, and money that
was being held idle is being returned
in a steady how to the banks, and thus
being put back into circulation.
''All over the country says Col
Ayres, banks are paying down their
Indebtedness to the reserve banks, and
credit conditions are steadily becoming
easier Nevertheless, bank loans and
deposits continue to shrink because of
business inactivity, and so we have the
anomalous condition of continued credit
defiation, when credit expansion is
needed, and under conditions which
should stimulate credit expansion
There is little evidence Of the nor
NAL Spring expansion in business activ-
ity," Col. Ayres found, but "a concerted
and courageous drive for new business
is being made everywhere by the manu-
facturers Of low priced automobiles" !"

Modern Plant to Do Away

PLYMOUTH. VI, April 15.-The
kerosene lamps. by light of which the
late John Coolidge administered the
oath of Office as President to his son
Calvin nine years ago, no longer will
see service in the Coolidge Summer
home
Modern workmen, skilled in modern
methods of lighting, yesterday began
the task OF supplanting the domestic
illumination of another era. They are
wiring the century old farm house and
will install a small electric plant.
The change is in line with plan
of extensive repairs begun under the
direction Of the former President last
year, and lends further support to the
belief that Mr.. and Mrs. Coolidge will
spend more time each year among the
environments of the former Presidents
boyhood.
Other changes will include the build
ing of a large ell. containing two bed
rooms, a bath room and library.
Although Mr.. Coolidge has indicated
he would arrive here, soon after April
Is, his Plymouth i1eighbors do not ex-
pect him before the 1st of May-for
two reasons:
First, the roads are in poor condition,
and then the trout season, to which
Mr. Coolidge always looks forward, does
not open hereabouts until May l5.

BALTIMORE WONDERS

Baltimore has, started to wonder
about Garrett county and perhaps to
take a little more interest than just
to regard it as wilderness and State
forest reserve. i
Carroll Dulaney, who writes col
umn "Day by Day." in the Baltimore
News, calls to the attention of the
people that Pittsburghers have an
nexed Garrett county by holding a
Tableland fair where products of the
county were exhibited and welcom-
ing visitors from all parts of the area.
Mr.. Dulaney quotes a paragraph
from Pittsburgh paper which states,
''The people of the Tableland who for
merly dealt principally with Balti-
more, Philadelphia and Washington,
now wish to be considered part of
the Pittsburgh shopping district.
Through the Chamber of Commerce
this proposition naturally has been
accepted gladly by Pittsburgh and a
program is being developed for closer
business and social relationship"
Mr.. Dulaney also recalls the con-
vention at Mountain Lake Park this
summer and the fact that number Of
Pittsburghers have established sum-
mer residences amid the peaks Of Gar
rett.
And, in conclusion, he wonders what
the Baltimore Association of Com
merce is doing about this.
Maybe they can persuade Mr.. Hyde,
who rambled around here several
weeks ago, to make casual study of
the county, its people and it's products.

WHAT ROOSEVELT TARIFF
POLICIES MEAN

Franklin D. Roosevelt, in asking the
farmers of the United States to vote
for him, said that only through his
policy of international tariffs and on
tariffs on some products, could the
farmer hope to obtain better prices.
This, the Democratic candidate said,
was due to the prices the farmer
could receive in foreign markets.
The fact of the matter is that up
wards to over SO percent of all that
our farmers raise is consumed right
here in our home markets. Further
more, the prices paid in these mark
cts are much higher than they are in
other countries. Look these figures
over. These are the market quota
tions on some leading farm products.
On October 10, 1882, wheat was
quoted at a top price of 46 cents a
bushel in Buenes Aires and was bring
ing 691a cents bushel at New York.
Corn was selling at 311a cents bush
ell at Buenes Aires, for 36& cents a
bushel at Rotterdam, and 415s cents
bushel in New York. Oates were
selling at little over 20 cents BUSH
ell at Buenes Aires and were bringing
anywhere from 251s cents to 81 cents
bushel, according to grade of the
product, at New York. Flaxseed was
quoted at top price of 631s cents a
bushel at Buenes Aires and was SELL
ing at from $1.O6 to SLIP in Duluth
and Minneapolis.
Governor Roosevelt, in suggesting
that we place agricultural products
on the free list so that we can sell in
foreign markets, must mean that we
should sell our products for less than
we are getting right here at home to-
day. If he does not mean this, he
must admit that he knows nothing of
prices in foreign markets. In. either
event a vote to support the Roose-
veltian policy is vote to destroy the
American farmer.

FINE GREETINGS TO Ia
BLELAND

The Pittsburghers who toured the
Allegheny Tableland last June under
the auspices of the Tableland Council
of the Chamber of Commerce in the
interest of the trade and cultural re-
lationship between that region and
this city brought back the most en-
thusiastic account of their reception.
Everyone of them had particular
story to tell of the hospitality of the
Tablelanders and of the remarkable
scenery of the mountain region. The
mutual business possibilities were
stressed on both sides. Later region
al conference, attended by a large del
egation of representatives of the
Pittsburgh Chamber of Commerce,
was held at Mountain Lake Park,
Maryland.
Last week Pittsburgh was host to
the Tablelanders, with the amenities
centering in a fair, exhibiting the pro-
ducts of the Tableland, in Gimbels
store. The stores, industries and the
newspapers of the city ycooperated with
the Chamber of Commerce in the en-
! tertainment of the visitors. and in
showing what Pittsburgh has to offer
the people of the Tableland in trade
and in social and cultural opportuni-
ties. 1t is estimated that more than
1000 representatives of the eight
counties of the Tableland area, Som
erset and Fayetts, of Pennsylvania,
Garrett of Maryland, and Grant, Min
eral, Monongalia, Preston and Tucker
of West Virginia, came to the city to
participate in the three-day program,
and that upwards of $4,000 Pitts
burghers visited the fair.
The fair itself was a revelation to
Pittsburghers both of the variety and
high quality of the agricultural and
other products of the Tableland. In
particular did the displays of pota-
toes, declared the finest ever seen in
| this city, attract attention, and at
! tendants were kept busy recording
orders for supplies. But the displays
of fruit, maple syrup, grains, veget-
ables and household arts also received
due attention.
All the visitors from the Tableland
declared themselves deeply impressed
by the reception they received in
Pittsburgh. They as well as the
spokesmen for the Chamber of Com
merce emphasized the fact that the
relationship between the city and the
plateau region has been securely es-
tablished and that henceforth it is
just a matter Of developing its full
possibilities. - Mondays Pittsburgh

IN DAYS OF OLD
FORTY YEARS AGO

A musical organization from Acct
dent, which was known as the Acct
dent Cornet band, was in Oakland
during the week and played some ex-
cellent selections.
A substantial improvement was
made on Second street near the Gar
rett County Bank building by the
erection of new platform and guard
rail over the "branch"-Wilson creek.
Water was being hauled in tank
cars from Oakland to Terra Alta to
supply the Baltimore and Ohio water
station with water for the company's
locomotives. 1t was said that nearly
all sources of water supply between
Piedmont and Grafton were dry.
Fire destroyed adjoining stables
and lot of hay in the buildings be-
longing to David Little and John
Compton located in the East end of
town.
A story copied from the Baltimore
Sun stated that efforts were being
made to extend the Oakland electric
light system to Mountain Lake Park
and also talk of establishing an cleo
trio car line from Oakland to the
Park.
A man driving a four-horse team
through Mountain Lake Park stopped
at house which was being built for
Miss Sallie Harris and loaded on his
wagon six hundred brick which were
to have been used in the building. A
person in an adjoining house saw the
operation but supposed that the brick
had been sold. Search for the man
was made without success.
