Liberty llonds. It Is true, have been extremely active and thoro Is some mocmriit. too. In tho Various foreign bondi which have been llRted on the New York Stork Exchanso since the war begun In 1911. Hut (tilde from this business may '" bo said to represent In chief mcarurr biijlng and rcllliiR of small toH of actual securities rather than an disposition to undertol.e spenulatie transactions. Bvcn among the regular boardroom professionals transac tions aro down toiexreedlngl limited proportions. 'Short" rommlttuentis aro Imposslblo where the aim Is merely to seenro fractional advantages 111 in-and-out trading. The Attorney ficneral's recent ruling that Midi transactions arc subject to the double tax if J2 per 100 shores ($1 on n complete turn) Is an cfrcoUo handicap ngalnsl this class of business. Meanwhile additional encouragement I" abstain from spcculntix ' transactions of all kinds Is furnished t the new (ionnuii dries. Hen eral business in securities lu fact, lias become so restricted that osier day's half-holiday to permit on appropriate oberwinrc or Hit l.lberl Loan national deinonstiatloii represents a change of conditions more nominal than real, for the olmno of transactions Is so small ns to sug gest a particularly light line of demarcation between an actual and 1111 official 1 1 o 1 1 rl 11 . Certainly Wall street commission houses, with their huge overhead expenditures, am not only not making money at tho present moment, but are suffering sccro lossc Railroad and Equipment Issues Firm Itallroad and equipment stocks are flrmli maintained despite tho widespread dullness In Ntock exchange business. Holders of the former. In view of ihc (iovcrnment's guarantee of revenues for tho orluus lines On the basis of those of the three rars preceding this country's partlcl ration In the war seem to regard tbem in Hie category of quasi Govern ment securities and arc mil disposed to sell, at any rule during the progress of the war. What will be the view taken ut tho war's trritit nation is a subject which at the moment is Ihc source of qulto notlp discussion Ah is well known, under the railroad administration law a. limit of twenty-one months after the declaration of peace bus been arrnnged In which tho management and control of the railroads shall be returned to their owners, then the guarantee shall cease. Hut recent development aro bringing out an entirely now phase of difficulties which will nivom pany such restoration of tne railroads. Co-ordination of the railroad ss tcms of the country Is proceeding so lnpldly that Identity Is being steadily dissipated Tho work of "unscrambling" the railroad "omelet" will be manifestly as dlfllcult as tlio current movement of promoting ctllelene.v through unification. D. and O. Gains by Tunnel's Use The announcement that the Baltimore and Ohio Itnllioad passenger trains aro to use the Pennsylvania New York terminal and lubes, which cost so many millions of dollars to build, Is an Instance In point. Here tofore the connection or th" llaUlmoio and Ohio Willi Now York clt '-'proper has been by fcrrv from New Jersey, which ha been a distinct handicap in connection with its melropolitau business. When lis patrons have become used to the facilities of the tube and In direct entrance Into tho central districts or Sew York, tl most certainly will provo a dlfll cult task for the road to return tit tho old conditions. Beyond this Is tlio fact that, villi the decision of the iovermiiont to keep down ex-pendllures, there will bo moro or less of n dissipation of tho officials who havo been so largely Instrumental In building up the busi ness of tho roads, rrelghl Is to be routed by the fiovermnent entirely Irrespective of revenues to individual roads. In fact, tho railroad systems of the tntlre countiy, beginning as of January I. WIS, urn to reeelvo "no more and no less" than the average lovenuo thej received during tho three years preceding that date. U.

However, In such 11 titanic. trai)snetlon as the one under cbnsldcratlon it becomes manifest that technical ques tions must constantly arise and that, llko other disputes 111 wartimes, they must bo settled arbltrarllj. The genernl money situation is being looked after by tho ofllclul money committee which has been appointed to keep tho position a com fortable one during the period of distribution of the third Liberty I.oa!i. The committee has been a quite free lender of funds at several distinct periods during tho week and the demand ruto In consequence has not exceeded 6 per cent.
