listing productive facilities, and in
lesser part the refinancing Of Sc
curities outstanding in the hands
of the public for the purpose of
obtaining lower interest rates.
Since December 1889, much of
the original inflationary psychology
of the beginning of the war has
been spent, and the factors which
are operating to keep commodity
prices down have gained recogni-
ton. In the first place, there was
an excess of capacity over present
needs in the hands of almost every
supplier of basic commodities. In
the second place, there is a huge
volume of funds avidly seeking en-
ployment at a profit, which would
tend to expand present productive
facilities as the need arises. And
finally, the federal government has
explored the whole problem Of war
initiation and stands ready to ef-
feet control measures as soon as
they become necessary in the pub
Lie interest.
Forward Buying Discouraged
It is not surprising that under
the influence of these powerful fac.
tors, commodity markets saggec

the screen, instead of being a solid
expanse of silver cloth, is per-
forated with thousands Of holes
which permit the passage Of sound
from the tremendous speaking unit
behind it.
This unit is operated from the
projection booth where light waves
are converted into electrical i'm
pulses which r flashed to the
multi-cellular horn on the stage.
The horn is actually many horns
in one, each section being placed
so as to direct sound to every part
Of the theatre house, making il
possible for even the faintest whis.
pered sound to be heard by q
patron in a back seat as well as
one in the front row.

Inventories Rise At Slower
Rate Than Backlog
OF Orders
If the manufacturers chief

One of the manufacturer chief
breads in a period Of prosperity is
that he will be "caught long" with
surplus stocks of raw materials
and finished products when the de-
cline comes. In this condition, he
is at the mercy of competitors who
buv in a falling market and pro-
duce for less cost. At the end OF
1910, the chances of being caught
long, were slim indeed for the
average manufacturer.
It is true that inventories have
expanded in the past year. But the
amount of that expansion is not as
great as the expansion in general
business activity in the same pc
Rod. And since the average manu-
facturer has a backlog of orders
which will take him through sew
era. months of production, his con
Germ is mainly the problem of as
surfing himself that a supply Of raw
materials will be continuously
available.
Real Expansion in 80
Inventory expansion began will

1889, and by the close Of that year
