The market for these new securities finally be- {came congested, and a resting spell was necessary to allow a better dis- tribution to the ultimate investor. The competition of the $550,000.000 of pew bonds and notes put out since the beginning of the year was keen- ly enough felt in the regular bond list to check the rise there and to bring about a reaction. as in n April is certain to be one of very proor traffic statements.

Take Sth St. Cars to Princeton St. and Walk Half week i3 set down partly to the deci- sion of the British treasury to begin preparations for paying interest on its American debt and partly it analyzed as a sequel to a speculativ movement which had been pushed too vigorously. In no wise does the downward turn reflect upon the causes which have underlain the im- provement in the exchange markets since the close of Docember. It still remains true that the British for-} elgn trade is steadily coming back to | normal, that other European coun tries are cutting down their imports | and in some cases increasing their exports and that if the all-important German reparations question can be settled the international business out- look will appear altogether cheerful. This has been the main basis for the recent advance in the cxchanges and it has not been weakened by the latest developments. 1 (Copyright, 1921.) s Square East, or At Vicksburg, Miss., it was once the practice to fire cannon every morning iand evening, with a view to purifying !the atmosphere | EDUCATIONAL.
