The inpOr-

tance Of the action. however, may
lie more IN IT'S indirect than IN It's
direct application. II Is not the
first time the government has in
dicafed that % should get a big slice
Of speculative profits. When II put
through the silver legislation in the
last congress Do attached special
provision requiring those who prof
tied from trading IN the white
metal 70 kick back so per cent IN
taxes.
Most people expect the govern
ment 10 loose the reins on imitation
IN the not very distant future. It
would occasion no great surprise If
Do sought IN some fashion to share
IN the profits from this imitation.
II is argued that this would be
splendid way for the government
TO pay of its rapidly mounting
debts. one wonders, Of course, 10
what extent It might defeat its own
purpose If it sought 10 do so.

Il ing has tended TO drive the
futures market in the metal to Lon
don. Dealings in New York have
dropped TO a very low point, and the
price has remained consistently be-
hind that in England's capital. In
all proba bilitv American spectators
have shifted their operations 10 Lon
don TO evade the tax Whether
they could do the same IN other
instances would remain TO be seen.
Fear of taxation may be keeping
many people from attempting TO an
ticipate the initiation they seem to
be certain will occur. Another fac
tor. perhaps, is the time element.
Few seem to have any firm cOnvic-
lions as 10 when the initiation mill

II is a little difficult to get the
governments slant on speculation.
IL has seemed to be rather out
spoken on the subject Of excessive
speculation, and in the case of sill
yer. as already has been mentioned
IL apparently has taken a stand
against speculation of any kind. I'M
less. of course. its principal object
in that case was to secure revenue.

GROWING CROPS SUFFER
FROM EXTREME HEAT
Corn on Uplands and Thin Soils
Hard Hit by Drought

Practically all growing crops
throughout Indiana last week suf-
fered from the extreme heat and
lack of moisture, according to the
weekly survey of the United States
department of agriculture.
During the latter part of the week
temperature conditions were con-
siderably improved and some re-
lief was afforded where showers
fell. Much corn, particularly on
uplands and thin soils, has been
hard hit by heat and drought.
In the southwestern sections early
corn has passed roasting ears and
late corn is nearing that stage,
with need of good rains important
for proper filling. Field tomatoes
are ripening early because of hot
and dry weather, and considerabl
sun scalding is reported

welt little boom which began with
The Inauguration and collapsed IN

adverse Developments in Europe.
Add to those elements the doubts,
fears and suspicion of Roosevelt
policies which have developed in big

ers and you have the answer to the
summer slump.

and July, business appears to have
held much OF the sweeping gain
made in the early months OF RooSe-
veltian rule. Private estimates in
dictate that July statistics mot yet
available i'll complete torm) VIII
show industrial activity 80 per cent
greater than on March 4, 1888.
/ The SO per cent gain III business
activity in the above table is based
on private estimates of a rise in the
| federal reserve boards index of in
duStrial output from SO IN March,
1888, when President Roosevelt took
office, to 30 per cent in July of this
! year.
From SO in March, 1888, the
board index rose to 100 in July,
1888, fell to 70 in September and
then rose to 86 in May, 1884. 1t
dropped to 81 in June and to an
estimated 81 last month. At that
figure, industrial activity would be
80 per cent of the 1923-24-25 arbi-
trary average.
