BERLIN, September New tariff
regulations effective September 6 will
virtually close the German market to
American office equipment companies,
which have investments in Germany
totaling approximately sll 100000.
The interests affected, it was learned
yesterday, have lodged vigorous pro-

forestalling enforcement of the emer-
gency decree creating the new duties.
The decree would double the tariff on
typewriters, calculating machines and
typewriter parts and would impose a
duty as high as 1000 marks on ma
chimes with bookkeeping attachments.
American firms with assembling plants
and distributing organizations in this
country employ 5000 Germans.

RATIO OF STOCKS
TO SALES IS FIRM
Relation Now Is About Same
as 1929, Says Commerce
Expert.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, September 2-Despite
the considerable reductions In stocks OF
retail goods on the shelves of Ameri-
can business their reduction in relation
to sales has been slight, a statistical
tabulation by John Gurnsey, Depart
ment of Commerce merchandising ex-
pert. indicates.
Guernseys tabulation, in the Maya
zine of Wall Street, shows that stocks
of retail goods at the close of 1929 to-
tailed s7,262 100000 and were lat per
cent of the years total retail sales Of
49,115, 100000.
14.1 Per Cent in 1882.
At the close of 1880 retail stocks were
ISL per cent of sales; at the close OF
1891 they were 14.6 per cent, and they
are forecast for the close Of 1882 at
141 per cent.
In point of actual stocks on hand,
however. the drop from the end of
1929 20 the figure forecast by Guernsey
for the end of 1892 was nearly three
billions. The 1929 total was S7262, ,O0o,-
00e: the 1882 total s4,403 100000
At the same time, annual sales In
1929 were s49,115. .000, ,0eo; in 1882 they
will be S31 900, 100000.
Were consumer demand to increase
to anything like the demands of pre-
vious prosperous years, present stocks
probably would be considerably in
adequate 1t remains to be seen how
far consumers may be stimulated to
buy. or are able to buy.
The Magazine Of Wall Street notes
in this connection that probably
100000 are unemployed with a cor
responding depressing effect on the
purchasing power of at least Is, 900, 900.
Moreover the purchasing power of
other millions has been reduced by part
time work and wage and salary re-
ductions.
Wide Variations in Stocks.
As to actual present stocks, survey
of leading lines discloses wide variations.
In some industries. notably cotton
textiles, lumber and newsprint, in
ventories nave been rigidly reduced by
an effective control of production. In
such cases, it is pointed out, it would
be easily possible by a revival of con-
suming demand to bring on at least
temporary period of intense manutac-
turing activity Yet the basic fact re-
mains. says the magazine, that in cot
ton textiles, lumber and newsprint there
is an excess of producing capacity
which in few months time could meet
any conceivable consuming demand.
In considering the significance of
potential demand, the magazine notes,
potential productive capacity must be
considered, and in nearly all lines there
exists a great surplus Of such capacity.
The evidence indicates that replace
ment demand at best probably can
cause only moderate and very gradual
stimulation of business" the magazine
says 1.-THE basic revival is certain to
be slow because considerable time will
be required by the reconstruction of
actual consumer purchasing power and,
particularly, for the reabsorption of any
substantial number Of unemployed
workers"

The Whole Story.

The average American citizen finds him.
self rather bewildered by the hot fighting
that has been going on in Congress over
the bill to balance the Treasury budget.
Here he was going on complacently tend
ing to his own business. oblivious of gov
eminent, of Wall Street. inter allied debts
and other kindred subjects when all of q
sudden he found his business cut in two, II
not entirely destroyed. Now his gloom Is
enhanced by the prospect that no matter
how the polysided contest in Congress goes
ne must face an increase in his taxes, an
increase in his cost of living and various
other uncomfortable things. Naturally
reused out Of his isolation Of interest in
his own business affairs, he is asking how
and why this came about2
There is really no mystery to 1t. Seventeen
and half million dollar palaces for Govern
ment departments. multiplication Of Gov.
eminent employees, host of commissions
all spending money and none bringing in
any, piled up total Of governmental
extravaganza that made it inevitable when
such huge items as a half billion farm
relief appropriations. veterans bonus,
etc., were superimrosed that the Treasurys
books showed an adverse balance between
Income and outso.
President Hoovers Administration, out
side of some conventional bromides about
economy. did nothing about It. When the
stock market crash came the Administer
tion apparently did not sense that this
inevitably meant a great falling off 10
income tax returns. Indeed the President
cheerfully gave out to the country that the
debacle in speculation could have no effect
on the industrial structure generally. Bust.
ness was sound. he explained, and our
real resources remained intact. So tie
Administration let things ride. II trusted
to luck for an improvement 10 business.
1t took gamblers chance that the stock
market would have favorable reaction.
And 90, with expenses ever mounting and
receipts diminishing. the Treasury finds
itself with two billion dollar deficit. As
was pointed out by Senator Dill, Of Wash
inston. the other day. the Government 10
spending daily $4,000. 900 more than lie
income.
That is the whole story in q nutshell,
The Administration assumed that the sun
would shine forever and made no provision
for rainy day. More than that. when
the storm did come IL took no steps to
readjust its expenses in relation to the
decreased revenues. Any individual who
follows a similar course is skirtinR the
verge Of bankruptcy even IL he does not
90 over.
The time for the strenuous measures of
relief. now being so unhappily labOred with
in Congress, was at the beginning Of our
trial and not two or three years later.
Whether our plight is due to a belated
aftermath Of the Great War or not-an d
MIR. Hoover clearly indicated in his 1872
campaign speeches that Republican ad-
ministrations had successfully met and
solved all the postwar questions fact
remains that he and his predecessors are
responsible for the most woeful financial
situation in which the United States Gov
eminent ever found itself and logically for
the pains that have come to our citizens
because Of IL.
