Congress should realize that no time should bz wasted in petty political disputes. The whole country is serious-minded, and will tolerate no unnec delays at Washington. The nation really wants Congress to get down to real busi- ness, to hasten resumption, to restoro normal conditions and to revive busi- early with will s League of modifications ness freedom 3 s possible. 1 sident Wilson is correct in 7ssert- ing that Germany should be allowed to resume trade with the res. of the world as soon as practicable, this for our own sake as others. Crop agricultural what mixed and factory. What abundance of scarce by war. important crop abundant. The this cereal was 11 millions thanks to exceptionally conditions, the yield per acre is un- usually high, or 16.2 bushel On the other hand, the corn crop is only ordinary in yield; cotton will be even shorter in supply than last year, and oats show a deficiency. High prices assure the farmers of exceptional prosperity; but dear food is not like- ly to please those already burdened by the high cost of living, the only cure for which is an increased pro- duction of food, clothing and shelter. The July crop report fave the condi- tion of what at 86.6, compared with a ten-year average of 1.6, and the indicated yield is 1,161,000,000 bushels, or 1 ,000,000 in excess of the record crop of 191 Condition of corn was reported at $6.7, azainst a ten-year average of 84.0.

All gréut wars have - been succeeded hy (1) intense industrial activity, (2) great prosperity, (3) ex- cessive speculation. We are alres in stages one and two. The third still in the future. Monetary The condition of the money market attracts more or less attention, es- pecially the scarcity and consequent ! extreme fluctuations in call’ money. The latte of course, due to the | enormous 'pressure of governmeint borrowing, the banks naturally p ferring to make such demands their first comsideration. The positive at- titude cf the Reserve Board in dis couraging undue speculation is the next factor of importance, and lastly | the unusually heavy demand for fi- nancing legitimate foreign and domes tic requirements, both of which are becoming increasingly insistent. It quite evident that in spite of the pres ent great expansion of credit, further expansion and not contraction will be the rule in the near future. Very soon crop demands will assert them- selves, followed by an active autumn trade. The problem of financing big | exports is still unsolved. Other na- tions are coming here for fund Canada having placed a loan this week for $75,000,000 that was quickly snapped up. Not only Kurope is | knocking at our bank doors, but South America and the Orient also. As for ourselves, we still investing im- mense sums in oil, shipping, chemical and foreign enterprises. The resump- tion of building is slow because of | high costs and the difficulties of mak- ing large loans. Any change for the better in these directions would cause a sharp revival in construction work The steel industry shows symptoms of revival. re- which | Conditions. are Market Tendenc The stock market appears to be drifting into a new stage. The buy- ing power is excellent and there is no abatement in underlying confidence in the future; but there is a decided change of titude toward stocks which seem to have been over-en- thusiastic in discounting the future. in such quarters there has been more | or less liquidation and consequent un- settlement of values. This process promises to continue, and will be @c- centuated by indisposition of the banks to encourage under speculation. | Sharp declines occurred in some of the specialties, and profit taking was quite conspicuous at times. Such operations leave the market in a | | sounder condition, and serve to divert | attention to securities hitherto | neglected. Stecl, oil, shipping and | other industrial ‘shares were particu- | | 1arty active. 1In steel there was con- | | siderable lidllidation, in spite of large | amounts of unfilled orders, of which had been vance. Railroad securities did not receive their full share of attention, the effect discounted in ad- | probably because of poor earning: | and the fact that many of the roads are dependent upon government rantee for their dividends | | gna | HENRY CLEWS | Connecticut, !
