Wnll street's rally encouraxed our stock markets, but exchange still drops ns It becomes more nnd more difficult to till tho nap between Imports and exports. Moreover, the American crop movement cast Its shadow before. Evidently tho market, which had been led to rxpect a great loan on the Ameri can side. Is dlsnppolnted by the announce ment of the ltoldon-lleddlnit mission. Some authorities express skepticism as to whether there exists on the American sldo nny largo surplus funds for genuine Investment In a long-term external loan which could not bo used by savings bnnks or for trustee purposes, Our stiff, rising Income tax presents another dlf fleliUy. lloth. I suggest, could bo met best by 5 per cent, trensury bills with 0110 year's currency, for which purpose your bank money could bo loaned. The compulsion movement Is much re sented by trado union lenders. The dis covery by tho rank and nlo that under the Trench conscription, which Lloyd Ooorgo called democratic, soldiers get only 1 cent a day, has not helped tho compulsory Idea. Lbor leaders naturally reply to the pears by offering to confis cate property If they confiscate labor. Shipping shares Just now afford nn In teresting problem In speculation. Freights are high, but so nrc working expenses. Second-hand shlpn fetch big prices. The vnluo of shares depends on the duration of the war, and It Is a question whether enough shipping has been sunk to offset tho reduction In the world's commerce after tho war.
