Careful field observations fol-
lowing the shocks OF the 18th,
18th and 31st OF October. estab-
fishes beyond any reasonable doubt
that all OF these shocks have been
caused by faulting (slipping of
one rock mass on another) in
rocks far below the surface OF
Helena valley" he writes. "The
fault unquestionably trends north
west and almost certainly dips to
the northeast.
Cannot Measure Displacement
Because Of the deep cover Of
gravel and sand in the Helena
valley It is impossible to identity
the particular fault plane along
which movement has taken place.
II the fault plane was exposed at
the surface then it would be pos
sible to measure the amount and
direction OF the movement, but
such is not the case in this par
ticular instance.
1.-THE actual movement which
has taken place is unquestionably
small. probably an amount meas
urable in inches. OF course, only
slight movements OF large masses
Of rock are necessary for the de-
yelopment of moderate earth

EyES0N GROWING
USEDCAR STOCKS
Highest Total in Several
Years May Curtai| New
Sales in Time.
BY DAVID J. WILKIE,
Associated Press stan Writer.

DETROIT. April 20.-New cars for
old continues to be the distribution
slogan in the motor car industry. and
although the merchandising division
would prefer to find a larger market
among the first time buyers" the
great bulk of the retail demand con-
tinues to be of the replacement type.
This means, of course. that used
car stocks are growing as distribution
of new vehicles mounts. In so far
as open statements are concerned, the
situation is giving producer and dis
tributor comparatively little concern,
although there has been some con-
lecture as to the possibility Of a
slowing demand in new car demand
when a real drive begins for the
clearing out of old car stocks.
Regarded As Dealer Problem.
The aggregate accumulation of used
cars at this time Is higher than 1t
mas been for several years. So steady
has been the consumer demand for
new vehicles, however, that the pro-
ducing division of the industry at
the moment looks upon the used ve-
hicle as presenting only dealer prob
lem. Reductions in allowances for
1888 and 1884 models, which became
effective under the dealers code last
week. created greater spread be-
tween the price of secondhand cars
and new vehicles in the low-price
brackets, but were expected to in
crease the sales of .older types In
dealers stocks
Fortunately, both for the proo;lcer
and the distributor. dealer stocks Of
new cars still are considerably below
the April average, condition which
assures a high level of factory activ-
ity and an opportunity for the clear
ing out of a large volume of the bet
ter grade of secondhand vehicles.

NEW YORK, April 20.-Cables and
radio dispatches to Business Week
give the following survey Of business
abroad for the week ending today:
LONDON.-"Britain is still jittery
over the upset political situation on
the continent, but for the moment the
pleasure over the tax cuts in the new
budget and the plans for the jubilee
have pushed war fears into the back
ground.
Poor mans budget is the popular
reaction to the new budget announced
at the beginning of the week. The
little fellow is remembered in almost
all of the tax cuts. Entertainment
tickets costing s pence or less no
longer pay a tax. Incomes in the
lower brackets will be taxed at a
lower rate. exemptions are raised and
the allowance for children increased.
A sop to the upper classes is the
complete restoration to government
officials Of the emergency cut of 1881,
half of which was restored last year.
Under the old budget the first
f175 (about $3.50 of taxable income

Exemptions to married wage earners
are increased from fl50 to f170.
Exemptions for each child will be-
come ESQ. There will no longer be
any distinction between earned and
unearned incomes up to fl20."
French More Confident.
PARIS.-"France is calmer this
week. Though nothing definite was
decided at Stresa. there is some conf
dence that the major Western powers
will cooperate In case of an emer-
gency.
Business is not good. Rail re-
ceipts are averaging IA per cent less
than in 1884. Car loadings are 10
per cent below last years levels. The
very bad situation in the automobile
industry is demonstrated by the re-
cent announcement that the Rosen-
CART Automobile Co.-which manu-
factured a popular midget car-haS

Reich Industry Quiet.
Observation-Disclosures as a whole is
stagnant, though the resumption of
public building in March was largely
responsible for the Unemployment of

to show some influence on general
business. The automobile industry
is the one exception in this slug
gish picture; it is booming"

NEW YORK, April 20.-It is ad-
mitted even by those who are most
darkly pessimistic in Wall street that
the budget of quarterly earnings
statements so far issued contains con-
siderable material which indicates
that many lines of industry are not
just painfully limping along, but
actually are doing good deal better
than a year ago.
An analysis of the opinion of some
Wall Street statisticians tend to con-
found those who are insisting that
industry just now is operating only
for the gloriflcation of N. r. A. codes
and labor.
It is true that some of the basic
lines are still in low state of health
on the basis Of their first quarter re-
turns. and the railroads have a con-
spicuous place in this category
But the increased profits accruing to
steel, automobile, accessory, merchan-
dising and sugar companies and long
list of others engaged in variety of
manufacturing and service operations
have apparently become factor of
some weight in the stock market.

TREASURY MEETS
NEEDS WITH CASH
Months Tax Collections
Around 166 Millions Above
Year Ago.
BY FREDERICK GARDNER,
Associated Press Financial Writer.


For a change Uncle Sam is paying
out cash from the till on balance in
stead of resorting to the money mar
ket for new funds.
Daily Treasury statements, in con-
sequence. have been recording de-
cline in the national debt-a rare
sight in recent years.
Tax collections last month poured
about $780, 100000 more into the
Treasurys cashbox than in the same
month last year.
With that increase and somewhat
slower pace of Federal spending, the
Treasury has been able to rely less
on the money market and to return
some of its borrowings. Except for
refunding operations by the Govern
ment. private borrowers have had the
money market pretty much to them
selves lately.
During its temporary withdrawal
from the market the Treasury has
seen short-term money rates crum-
bling, with call loans on securities at
one-fourth of l per cent.
Money trends are interpreted by
observers here as an indication the
Treasury will continue to borrow at
attractive rates when 1t finds need
The s4,880 100000 work-relief pro-
gram is expected to bring it back into
the money market on large scale.
Meanwhile, the Federal debt has
dropped more than S100,000,000 the
last few days through repayment of
unconverted Liberty bonds and Treas
ury bills.
At s28, $50, ,0OO,O 900 the national debt
