In many quarters It was said that 1-ord Cecil is overpesslmistic and that he is too clone to the nr-raaged districts of Europe to form an unbiased opinion on the subject. One banker pointed out in this connection that it seemed a striking coincidence that somo of our leadlug financiers, whose views of the future of Europe had been rosy before they visited the devastated districts, became very much the reverse afterward. He said it was a question in his mind how much of their lnttcr impresions, as voiced in their somewhat disquieting prognostications, were the result of their otherwise sound, level-headed judgment nod how much was attributable to the psychological effect produced bj their environment while isltltig the desolation in Frauec and Belgium.

STOCK EXCHANGES GOVERNMENT SECURITIES DEPARTMENT TELirilOMiS! UELL, LOMBARD 4330s KEYSTONE, MAIN ZSSt said if it Is the result of sound, unprejudiced judgment it is a serious pro nunciamento. Tho fact that Lord Cecil bad further qualified his opinion by stnting that such financial disaster would be of iniredlble magnitude seemed to him to raise a question which required the most earnest consideration of the lend ing financiers of this country as well as our own government. Smh n dis aster as pictured by Lord Cecil, he remarked, would Inevitably hit this country, and for that reason ccrj thing which could be devised to make the blow as harmless as possible, should it fall, must be done by forehanded preparation. Of couise, we know through the newspnpers, be said, that Mr. Davison, of .1. P. Morgan fr Co., who has been closelj identified with mattets in Europe recently, assisted by other able financiers, is earnestly engaged lu working out n plan which may have the effect, if put into execution, of avert ing to a great extent what Lord Cecil fears, and It is to be hoped we shall soon hear the detnlls or at least an outline f what they propose. Assistance Through the Federal Reserve Bank Another very conservative bnnk In giving bis opinion snid II was Bomethlng he had expected right along, but had hoped that a means to avoid it altogether oc at least make It harmless as poslble would be colved by some of the brilliant minds among our leading financial men, with the assistance of our goernment Jn some form through our federal Hrervc sjstem. There is one thing we must remember, he said The people of Europe arc not like the people of America. They hive not the recupcrntive power, they lack initiatie. If this country should find itself today In a position financially and economically similar to most European countries nt present, he remarked, we would all get to work and with our unlimited nntitrnl re Bources would build ourselves up fiom the ground in an incredibly short space of time, because we are a jotiug people and hae a oung ountr ; but Europe she is like an old man. She still has natural resources, but nothing to compare to ours, and the lack of im nnd inltlathe in the people is a big handicap. As we are in such a unique position, with enornmus re sources of money, material and credit, it would seem, he said, tbnt it Is up to "us to help out. Signing of Peace Treaty Has Far-Reaching Effect While the npproval of the peace treaty b the fieinians bv a subtnutiil majority on Wednesday last did uot seem to tnti.p eeu a ripple on the stock market, said a well-known bunker and bioker, it had a much further leach ing effect than most people gave it credit for at hrst blush. Oue of the things which in n maimer is holding buck our wheels of in dustry, he said, is the failure up to the present of am considerable amount of orders for reconstruction work in Europe, especially in Pi time and Ilclgium. This, he said, as far as he could find out. nns not clue to nny avoidable dela on tho part of the French, ni it is nliahh lepoited tint Aineiiruii firms hac secured coutiacts to rebuild nt least ,iiu French citv with a minimum ouIIhv of K200, 000,000 nnd n maximum of V.00.000.000 or een more. Tfio.grent clithcultj which stood in the wn was the agreements for indemnity made with (icrmnnv, which could not be counted upon with nuy degree of certaiutj until Oerm.iny had appiou-d the trciitj, in which the terms of the indemnities were embodied. Now tbnt the approval has been gien and Oermunv is mnking plans to begin pajments at an early dnte, and with the prospect of the lifting of embargoes with little delav to nssist C.crmnnv in liti efforts, these lecon struction ordeis should begin to be realized. The one ciU above leferred to, it must be remembered, is only one of the many such awaiting the German action. U. S. Steel Unfilled Tonnage Report Discounted As was experted. the leport ot a gain in tho unfilled tonnage of the T'nitecl States Steel Coiporntlon for .Line as compared with Mn had been long discounted, and theiefoie hnd no npprec iiihle effect on the exchange or in hrokeis' olhces Am discussion on the subject wus of the commonplace, matter of fact order. The slight decline in I'tntecl States Steel c nniinon after the publication of the repoit was not c oiisideied of lmpoitnnco, as the maikct as u whole wns lather soft, or, as otic brokei remarked, it was tiled. Coutrarj to the usual custom when prices of stocks arc declining slight!, there seemed an unusual numbei of c ustoiiieis in the various bouid rooms, ovidcutb in anticipation of something happening m connection with the Piesident's address to Congicss; but nothing happened There seemed to be a shade of disappointment in some quarters that lefetencc of some kind was uot mnde in the address to the lailroad situation, and in other instances the President's failuie to snj .something on prohibitum was commented upon.
