that money is tepid. 1t is not hot. in
the sense that it is being disposed of
as quickly as it is received, but it is

For three months I have observed
in my travels about the country a
growing tendency among people pos
sessed Of reserves to try to insure
those reserves against any inflationary
movement. The first evidences of this
occurred about the first of the year
Since then this tendency has been
growing.
"It has taken form in investments
in real estate. Farm lands are now
being purchased as a protection
against imitation. 1t is too early to
say how widespread the movement
will be or how rapidly it will be &C
celerated but there can be no doubt
that the germ Of fear Of imitation has
been implanted, and tina. in each sue
ceeding month since the first of the
year there has been an increase in
real estate investments as insurance

TRUSTEES REVEAL
INITIATION FEAR
Ask Permission to Invest
35 Per Cent of 100000
Estate in Equities.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

NEW YORK, May 18.-Evidence of
uneasiness over the possibility OF in
f1ation comes from quarter outside
of the stock market.
Trustees for a 100000 estate ap-
piled to the surrogate in this city for
permission to invest 35 per cent of the
principal in equities as a means OF
protection against dilution of the
currency. One of the trustees was the
Central Hanover Bank & Trust Co.
and among the witnesses called to sup
port the application was Walter S.
Lands, vice president of the American
Cynamid Co.
The trustees told the court that in
their opinion the situation was such
that it was advisable for a portion at
least of the funds under their control
to be invested in common stocks,
instead of in high-grade bonds. The
court denied the application on the
ground that responsible Government
officials had denied any intention OF
embarking on an inflationary program
and that, in any event, legal warrant
for granting the request was lacking.
The significance of this incident lies
in the disclosure Of an attitude which,
if it were generally shared, might easily
bring the very thing feared. Imitation
will take" when people begin to
believe it will take. This is, of course
an isolated case and ought not to be
given too much importance, but it is
interesting none the less.
The position of a trustee in these
times is an unenviable one at best If
he is confined to legal" investments
for the funds under his charge, he must
take a very low, almost nominal, return
from a very restricted list. This list
is made up by rule-of- thumb methods
and always lacks f1exibility, than
which nothing is more desirable now
His path is charted by the legal
tradition that only bonds which earn
their charges by a wide margin are
suitable mediums for trust funds and
that all common stocks lack invest
ment quality.
Under the ruling of the court,
trustees have no remedy, or, rather.
the beneficiaries have no remedy.

INTEREST CENTERS
ON MACHINE TRADE
More Than $1,000, 600, 900
Declared Needed for
Modernization.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 18.-Wall Streets
dream Of boom days Is centering on
the huge sum which can be spent tc
modernize factories and replace out
moded machinery.
The Machinery and Allied Products
Institute estimates more than Sl8,-
TOO ,O00, 900 must be spent on machin-
cry and equipment in all industrial
concerns before the plants again can
produce with maximum economy and
efficiency.
Among current estimates Of poten-
tial expenditures, that figure probably
stands highest, but authorities quickly
point out S18, 100000 is almost
three times the value of all machinery
produced in 1929.
Manufacture of new machinery In
the last Is years has dropped rapidly
when there has been comparatively
slight receSsions in industrial produc-
tion. This is because profits usually
control the extent of new machinery
purchases.
Since the 1929 peak, machinery out
put mas gone OOWU W LIle lOWcSI 4cNCl
in many years, which means that
machinery depreciation has gained
momentum.
The American Macf1inist recently
estimated IS per cent of metal-work-
ing equipment is more than 10 years
old. Ten years ago only "A per cent
of the equipment was more than 10
years old.
When the Wall Street day-dreamers
stack up their statistics on the tre-
mendous potential need for new ma
chinery, they admit that the problem
of starting the money circulating to
buy the equipment is the hand which
pushes over the stacked-up figures.
A Is per cent rise in business would
start the spending for equipment, il
is said. For proof, the record Of
spending during 1888 is cited. During
that year, while industrial production
increased and costs we're mounting, q
phenomenal rise in machine tool
orders rushed the volume of new
business closer to normal than at any
time since prosperity peaks.

FRENCH WORRIED
BY GOLD OUTFLOW
Shipment of $66, 900, 900 in Week
Adds to Alarm Over Cur
rency Outlook.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 19.-The intima-
tion of French Finance Minister Ger
main-Martin that the government
would fight valiently to keep the franc
on gold served only to draw added
attention to the widening leak in the
French gold dixie, bankers say.
The further engagement in Paris of
S21 ,000,0 in gold for shipment to
this country was seen as evidence that
there has been no abatement of nerv-
business over the French financial po-
sition.
This brought the weeks outflow Of
gold from France to $66 900. .00G, bank
ers estimated.
The concomitant demand for the
pound sterling, and selling of rentes
and buying of shares on the Paris
Bourse point to one thing, observers
say. This is the growing mistrust OF
the French people of the future of
their currency.

Plans for Missouri Pacific
In Preliminary Draft Stage

call for reorganization on a basis of
annual interest charges Of around
S8, 900, 900 for the revamped Missouri
Pacific System, compared with about
$50, 100000 annually necessary to
service present debts.
Some diversity of opinion is said to
exist as to whether the present is the
best time for working out new finan-
cial structure.
The current poor earnings results
of the Missouri Pacific and other roads,
due to higher operating costs and
wage-cut restorations, makes profits
this year a matter of widely varying
conjecture.
Another serious obstacle to nearby
settlement of the Missouri Pacific's
financial future lies in the large num-
Der of various classes of creditors and
security holders. There are over 85
such classes.
Under section II of the new Federal
bankruptcy act, one-third of the cred
itors or security holders of any given
class are capable of blocking a reor-
ganization If they can prove that their
reasonable rights in the property are
being disregarded.

Writing of life insurance in 1884

1888 This was the first year since
1929 that life insurance sales exceeded
those of the preceding year. The peo-
pie of this country hold about rs pei

rate increases put in effect by many
companies to offset the drop in yielc
received from investments. Usually
there is lag of 80 days between in
surance policies applied for and poll
cies paid for, which also must be con-
sidered in rate increases.
Upward Trend Continues.
The $4,000, 100000 of life insur.
ance in force in the United States al
the end of 1884. according to the Ma
tional Association of Life Underwrit-
ers, involved direct contact by the
life insurance companies with hal!
the country's population.
1T is too early to predict the per.
centage of increase in new business
that may be expected in 1885" said
Theodore M. Richie, president of the
underwriters association. However
reports from all sections Of the coun-
try indicate that the buying trend
continues upward"
Loans on life insurance policies fol
more than a year have shown
steady decrease, an average of $3,0O0,-
900 or so monthly, but some OF this
decrease is due to lapSed policies. New
ertheless some companies note an in
creasing tendency to repay policy
loans.
