Domestically the important factor n the week's developments has been the decision of the Railway bourd reducing the pay of employes by an ave of about 12 per cent The cut js regarded as very moder- ate by railroad managers. although it should effect an economy af about $400,000.000 per anpnum. Neverthe- jess (he reduction, amounting as it does to- oniy about 50 per cenr of the advances zranted last summer, is insufficient to meet the needs of the railroads even with their pres- ent scale of rates. The concession. however, is noleworthy because of its being the first gevernmental de- cision against the extravagant claims | of labor, and if coupled with a rad- | ical agreement of the working agree- ments should result in material fngs for the lines April returns, which are now meore and more ful- Iy available, show that decided econ- omies in railroad expenses have been brought ahout, althoush it should be remembered that these savings are in many instances merely the postponement of necessary work On the 171 Class I railroads April operating income is $27.500.000, against 321,200,000 a vear azo. The aectnal situation can be v much betier understood a little later ‘ en the readjustment of wages Yand prices is more nearly complete Progress of Business. In spite of a somewhat further fall of prices due to the general evening up of values in different branches of the industrial organiza- tion, better progress toward normal business conditions is evident The principal obstacle now visible in textile and other allied lines is the uncertainty of buyers with regard to the future price outlook. many bus- iness men being still reluctant to commit themselves far in advance because of their fear that prices may prove unstable. In automobiles the recent cutting of prices has r sulted in a large number of buying orders for cars. especially of the low cost type, but profils on sales are nmn\.\'\rfly reduced to a- minimum is the prediction of the authori- nr-s that the steel apd iron trade will increase materially three months from now and that fall trade gen- erally will ow considerable’ sion The outlook, therefore, no means unfavorable, and if it were not for the fear of further important dividend reductions no doubt buvin power in the market would be mu larger. Ifforts on the part of the [ administration to further the develop- ment of export financing have been increased during the past week, at- tempts being made to bring about greater activity on the part of the war finance corporation and to adopt conditions in the Federal Reserve system mo1 to the current A ha needs of agriculture.

Some unexpected dividend reductions durinz the past week as well as others that had been pre- dieted have tended to unsettie market prices, particularly in the sieel and automobile groups of stucks.
