Following America the precedents of the Bank o Bank of the United States, the Chemical Seaboard Bank, the Empire Trust Com- pany and cther New York financial institutions, the three largest New York banks, the National City, the Chase National and the Guaranty Trust, have taken steps to increase their capitalization. The stockholders of the National City Bank have paid in §60,000,000 to increase the capitalization from $75,000,000 §90,000,000. The National City Company 1 its capital from $25,000,000 to its surplus from $25,000,000 to With its capital, its §$50,000,000 surplus and $21,000,000 undivided profits, the icnal City Bank's stated capital resources will he $256,000,000 against $196,000,- 000 before the increase.

The total value to uu-!han farmers of their erops and livestock produced during 1927 was $17,296,000,000, and approximately $730,000,000 greater than the total for 1926, according to a nation-wide survey just vompleted by The Farm Journal, the national agricultural monthly pub- hished in Philadelphi: , 10 31 States the value of farm products was Breater in 19 than in the preceding year, ac- cording the tabulation, which represents the most comprehensrve annual survey of fdrm con- ditions with the eption of the official mates of the Department of Agriculture, to be published in July Seven other States equalled the values of 1926, while only ten showed slight decreas For the country as a whole the total values 1927 64 per cent. greater than for the average pre-war years 1910 to 1914, The survey suppofts the prediction made six months ago by Eugéne Meyer, Commissioner of the Federal Farm Loan Board, that farm products for 1927 would be worth nearly a billion dollars more than those of 1926 South Dakota ‘showed the greatest gain in the value of her crops over the previous year— 43 per cent. Texas with crops valued at $772,- 900,000 again ranked first among the States in gotal value. Jowa came second with $566,000,- 000. Other States exceeding $300,000,000 in yca‘o[m, in the order named, were: California, $483,- Ilinois, $448,000,000; Nebraska, $425,- North Carolina, $399,000,000; Kansas, Minnesota, 4,000,000; Wiscon- $347,000,000; Oklahoma, $821,000,000; Mis- ri, $318,000,000; Ohio, $212,000,000, and New rk, §306,000,000.

(Boston News Bureau.) first time an annual meeting jointly by the American Federation of the American Association of Museums ington afforded President Coolidge a ]N r!nn'l\ to cite cne of the new forces e life, still somewhat inchoate but steadily growing and ever more important in a practical as well as esthetic It is the appreciation; |of and the demand for art or beauty We have now, in our national development, |the time and the means, as the President notes, to develop the artistic. We are no longer chained to drudgery, cr condemned to only the crude and the ugly. We can now understand and work cut jdeals The museums are better equipped to reveal beauty to us; and especially plutocratic philanthropy, draining Burope of its treasures, seeks to share their inspiration widely. The resultant ‘“clcser contact with the in- finite,” the tendency to banish evil things and to rai moral standards as products of this birth cf beauty, are naturally quoted by the Coolidge philesophy, which instinctively stresses the {moral in many things. But it may be noted also |that merely a glance about reveals numerous very practical items in business and trade which reflects this subtle general change. In all the essentials and all the appurtenances of life this is increasingly clear. The buildings that shelter us, their surroundings and thelr fit- tings, the garments we wear, even the foods we eat, are touched with the new interest. Looks, style, charm, the ‘eye appeal,” have to be appraised not merely in art or fashion maga- zines, but in business councils. The auto is perhaps the leading instance, its current emphasis on ensnared even Ford. Now the humble bicycle is cited making the same effort at distinction. Our architecture, from great public buildings to humblest dwellings, has a new charm. Our furni- ture likewise. And lhl‘l‘l’ is no need of empha- slzing our clothes. In Rurope, especi The was held Arts and in Wash- timely op- in Am- sense. 0 in appearance,—which has in ftaly, it was once a ‘renaissance,—a rebirth. With us,—consider- ing some homelier ds it is mainly a new birth. The old chrysalis is forever discarded. And it is art ncw for business's sake; beauty is not merely truth, but also profit. Doing Away with War. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) Not just in Senator Borah's way, nor in the way of the peace councils and. societies, nor even, |perhaps, in the way of unilateral peace treaties, shall war be eliminated from human experience; but it is not unreasonable to believe that Mars will put himself out of business, and at no very remote period. Citizens of Cincinnati the other evening heard the sounds of music and revelry, the voices of peopl® in England and the striking of London's famous clock, Big Ben. It was through the magic of the radio that this was possible. Fitzmaurice and his comrades crossed the At- lantic from Europe to America in forty hours. In the flash of an eye messages' and communica- tions leap under the seas to and from every land. The wireless no longer is a mystery, but one of the most vital facts of this era. Tomorrow television will be perfected. Already we are able to telephone across the oceans. The air- plane is fast becoming earth’s most powerful and effective war machine. Aren’t these things enough to give rulers and statesmen pause before they attempt to make the world suffer much more of the war curse?

How can the nations keep a secret with the radio, the tele- graph, the telephone, the wireless and tele- vision all busy on the job? It can’t be done. The inventors of the present era have brought the nations very close together: Even in the Balkans, in Russia, Poland, China, the electric finger is writing on the secroll of destiny, “War soon is doomed.” Candidate running for the Legislature in Mis- souri is delightfully plain in his campaign state- ments.
