GOSSIP OF THE STREET PHILADELPHIA COMMERCIAL MARKETS
EIGHT MILLION CITIZENS PROCLAIM
THEIR FAITH IN THE UNITED STATES
The Second Liberty Loan a Moral, Commercial
and Financial Triumph Gossip
of the Street
WHILE the unprecedented oversubscription to the Liberty Bond la an unques-
II tloned trlumpn, It was not all that ww needed to convlnco Germany. It win '
necessary for us to Rhow the Central rowers that the subscription was beyond
doubt a popular ono nnd the fact that moro than 8,000.000 persons hao subscribed
places any contention on tho subject beyond doubt.
Aside from tho amount of money which was subscribed, which In Itself Is very
important, stands tho great moral effect, and this stupendous army of subscribers,
the greatest over known In this country rather than the $5,000,000,000 Is tho
answer of the United States to Germany.
Had the number of subscribers been comparatively few, the German papers
nould have said, and cry properly, too. that the banks and multimillionaires
had taken tho loan, but with such iin array of bonafido subscribers behind tills
ft greatest world loan there Is not tho sUctPest chance for such u ch.irgo.
Tho ucrman papers nt Homo and in tho United States hao always harped on
the BtrlnB that tho Americans never oted whether they wanted to enter tho war
K or not, but the uimvor Is here now, nnd it Is S.OOO.OOQ subscribers to tho great
Mberty Loan, me higcest financial buccess tho world has oxer known.
There seems no doubt that when all tho outlying districts havo been flnallv
reported, the totals, both as to tho amount of tho loan and the number of sub
scribers will bo lurgely augmented.

TJioro Is, however, another side to tho success of the Mberty Loan. It proves
beyond any question tho supreme faith which tho citizens of the United States
have In their own country, nnd registers In no uncertain manner their confidence
in the final outcome of tho war nnd tho ultimate triumph of world democracy. It
hows timid investors that thcro 13 nuthlng the matter, financially or any other
ay, with this country, and the pessimism which showed Its head In tho last few
eeks should ut once give way to nn optimism for tho future. In lew of the great
part which the United States is destined to play morally, financially and commercially
in the future world hlstorj.
Expansion in Trade After the War
How about the expansion of our commerce after the war? Is a riuestlot. which
comes up ery frequently thc-e dajs. nnd the discussions which naturally follow
liae only the conclusion that what is ecrybody's business Is nobody's business
It is sa)d that some exporters have already mudo representations In Washing
ton urging tho necessity of a board equipped with governmental authority to
prepare plans for the maintenance and expansion of our foreign commcrco after
the war. It Is acknowledged that Kuropetm nations aro making btrcn'uous efforts
with that end in view, and that Great Britain nnd Germany are tho two most nctlve.
It Is said that Germany has established u buieau with thousands of cperts at
work in Switzerland, carrjlng out a most elaborate program. Including tho usual
publicity bureau, which is conducted en tho German prlnclplo of condemning every
kind of merchandho not "mudo In Germany" without any traco that the condemna
tion comes from German sources.
Walker W. Vlck, general manager of the Fnctoiy Uxport Pioducts Corpora
tion and Manufacturers' Agents Company, of New York, sums up tho situation
which tho manufacturers and exporters of tho United States arc facing in this con
nection as follows:
First. Tho present prosperity of the United States Is duo not to domestic, but
foreign consumption. Tho production is not economic but e.xtra agnut. This Is
possible because sale prices permit It.
Second. Production in European countries at war has been forced to the most
economic basis obtainable.
Third. After tho war extravagant Americun production must compete with
economic I.uropenn production.
Fourth. Tho United States Is producing above domestic consumption from 33
to 40 per tent output. That overproduction is going abroad. When tho war ceases
e will bo fortunate If we letaln 10 per cont of it. Thus from 25 to 30 per cent
overproduction mu&t cease with the resultant Industrial readjustment.
Fifth Therefore, If we do not now use every posslblo foresight and energy to
retain and expand foreign tiado. tho United States economic position must recede.
Sixth. Ilngland, Germany, l'rnnce, italy and HusMa hao nlready established
commissions to bo In a state of "Preparedness" for tho commeiclal competition.
Seventh Wo must do likewise and "Do It Now."
"It Is evident," he says, "that all the great commercial and Industrial count: les
ef the world are making carefully planned and nystematiu efforts to develop co
operative organizations for the-puipose of stimulating and extending business
Interests In foreign markets after tho war, for obtaining proper Information In
regard to foreign markets through exhaustivo research nnd analyses, and for
creating such facilities for assisting Individual firms in order to enable them to
properly finance their foreign trade and develop their commercial opportunities.
The United States may well profit bv tho examplo of these countries. Steps
ihould be immediately taken for tho co-operation of organizations In this country,
which will be 4n a position to plan and piepare during the war to meet tho problem of
eompetltion after the war to meet the interests of American business."
Community Idea in Traction Management
The "community" idea, which Is taking form in arious shapes In many places
all over the country, is likely to have a novel trial in tho ownership and operation
of the traction system of Toledo, O., if a plan now under consideration works out.
Discussing the plan for Toledo. Henry L. Doherty, the well-known financier, said:
"I started in on the negotiations determined to go as far as I possibly could
to reach a fair agreement and to yield evcrj thing to the city I could jleld nnd
till be able to finance the proposition. I brllevo that this community-plan form of
ettlement will arouse a lively Interest all over the country much more even than
did the so-called Clev eland plan."
In furtherance of this community plan a draft of a trolley ordinance has been
arranged providing for tho formation of a company to bo known as the Com
munity Traction Company, which is to lense from the Dolietty company tho Toledo
Hallways and Light Company property, with a provision that at the expiration of
five ears the city can either lease or purchase the property. The agreement
embodies many original Ideas, in tho creation of new relations between publio
Utilities and cities.
The ordlnanco will be distributed to the voters so that they may have a thor
ough understanding of the agreement, and after valuation of the property Is
completed, tho matter will be made tho subject of a referendum.
The most Impottant featuies of the plan are as follows:
First, There is to bo a separation of the street railway company from tho
electric and gan properties. The traction piopcrtlcs are to ho controlled by the
Community Traction Company, the capital stock to equal the value of the street
railway properties as determined by the valuation board. This stock will bo held
by flvo truHteea and voted hy them. In return for its equity in tho Community
Traction Company, tho Toledo Hallways and Light Company is to receive trust
certificates. '
Second., Community Traction stock will bo sold to the public in $10 shares,
and may bo bought on tho installment plan. This Btock must always yield C per
cent unless such yield cannot bo obtained without Increasing tho fare to moro than
five cents.
Third. At tho end of live years tho city may purchaso tho traction properties
for an amount equal to the par valuo of the capital stock of tho company Issued
and outstanding, plus a premium of C per cent.
Fourth. At any time after flvo years the city may lease the property by paying
X5 per cent of tho purchase price, plus a monthly renvoi of ono half of 1 por cent on
the unpaid balance of the purchase price. In order to acqulro the property the
city will also have to pay at least 2 per cent annually toward such purchase.
Fifth. The Toledo Hallway and Light Company agrees to purchase within
the first eighteen months .1,000,000 of additional stock in tho Community Traction
Company. Money received from tho salo of this stock Is to be used to pay for
extension and betterment of the lines during the first five years. Further funds are
created to take care of operatic, maintenance, depreciation and renewals.
Public Utility Financing
Attention wa. drawn In this column recently to tho laxity surrounding the
lulng of new securities In the United States, as compared with tho laws governing
such operations in Great Britain and other European countries, and particular
emphasis was laid on the securities of public utilities. A discussion on the subject Is
now going on in financial circles with a view of havinu Government control over
corporation financing in general. Frank L. Dame, director of the Republic Railway
and Light Company, In discussing the matter, in a abatement arguing why publio
Utility financing Bhould have priority In the event of such Government control, says:
"In England new capital Issues can only bo made after npproval by the British
Treasury, m this country, which la now the banker for the Allies, wo are rapidly
approaching a similar restriction, whether by Government regulation or through
the co-operative action of banking Interests, and Mr. Sabln, of the Guaranty Trust
Company, has already suggested a priority board on money.
"From tho standpoint of electrlo light and power companies, If It can be shown
that in the grand total of financing, absolutely necewary In wartime, the capital
Hqulrementa can bo jubstantlaljy lessened by meeting the demand of the light and
Power company, rather than the manufacturer or Isolated power plant, for the
financing of the power plant Involved in any enterprise under consideration, the
preference of the light and power company Bhould be favored as a war measure.
"If. in addition. It can be .hown that from one, d one-h.lt to three ton. of coal

NnW YORK. Oct. 29
After a show of strength In tho Initial
trading, the Curb market was unsettled bs
tho sharp breaks In many Issues on tho
Stock Exchango and trading in both mar
kets was Influenced by tho unfavorable ncrws
from Italy
All kinds of conjectures were made as to
what the result of tho German victory may
be, but, although tho opinions were vague,
they were In nearly all cases bearish and
had a direct bearing in inducing sales for
both long and short account.
Cities Servlco was one of tho weakest
features, falling from 111 to 205. Aetna

HAnmsnuna. Oct. 29.
The Bureau of Kmployment of tho De
partment of Labor and Industry placed
2416 persons ln employment during the
month of September through Its five onices
in Harrlsburg, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia,
Johnstown and Altoona. Kmployers asked
tho bureau for 342 workers during the
month, while applications for positions vvero
received from 2978 persons. Of that num
ber, 257C persons were referred to posi
tions for which they wcro considered tftilt
able. Commissioner Jackson said today that
the records of the Employment Bureau Indi
cate an uninterrupted continuance of tho
heavy demands for ordinary laborers In vir
tually all sections of tho State. The de
mands are also great for skilled machinists
and foundrymen In tho eastern part of
the State a heavy demand for shipyard
labor prevails, including riveters, calkcrs,
heaters, erectors and similar mechanics.
Skilled men aro preferred for such work,
hut numbers of plants aro instructing un
skilled men
Wur requirements havo caused nn un
usual demand for carpenters In construction
work und for factory workers, especially
ln the garment trades.
Women are being nttrartcd In greater
numbers to the textile mills to tako tho
places of men who have left for the war or
for moro arduous duties in the production
Held Employment of women ln offices Is In
creasing, and women are alo being employed
In men s furnishing stores, in the operation
of passenger elevators, ln restaurants nnd
In other work for which they are qualified.
Scarcity of capable farm hands continues.
Orders are constantly on llle at tho Labor
Bureau for Inexperienced men to work
temporarily on farms at wages ranging
from $2 to $3 a day with board
