Labor Situation
WEEK'S EXCITING MARKET
New Vork. Sfpf. 0. TUe weekly rr
view of tlip stock market nppfni-a in the
Siln. totlny m follows1!
The current week lu the Ht-curltlri
market nermed clearly to point to the
Interesting fart that there Is a larger
r)nmber of persons who feel cheerful
.with respect to the state of the country
than those who ilo not. That thin
Jlappy frame of mind was not engen
dered merely by surface iMelopments,
such as the labor truce and definite
progress toward milrond legislation.
jf1 Was obvious.
" In the Hrst place, the labor situation
lAntf n UIaI.I.i a.n.itf .M.ntltT,, tttt-n BAtfa
ne days before the stock lint gave Its
mspiuy oi animation uuti MrtiiKiu ui
"Wednesday. Hefore Wednesday the un
dertonc if the market 'was good, but in
flo manifestation conspicuous. There
had been for some time Meady accumu
lation of 'stocks sufficient to nullify in
arge part the utmost efforts of tho hear
traders.
Shares thus purchased were bought
with a view to holding them for an in
definite period. They were put away
Jn boxes, taken otit of the street. It
rcqui-ed something akin to n bear panic,
like that witnessed on Wednesday, to
bring forth any considerable volume of
those holdings.
Those wTjo were induced to part with
them did so rather reluctantly nnd were
at once .placed In the ranks of the sold
out bulls, whose first thought was to
get back into the market. Added to the
number in that category- were the more
timid souls who hnil previously liqui
dated nnd thus entirely missed the op
portunity to reap profits on the long
ide which presented itself in the mid
dle of tho week.
Could Not Keep Trices Down
The pnper profits which were not
realized on Wednesday were taken on
Thursday, and this in n measure helped
the bears In their renewTd attacks. The
latter did not find their going easy,
however, except in the case of spectacu
lar performers like Crucible Steel and
Baldwin Lqcomotlve. They found that
they could put prices down, but that
they could not make them stny down.
Thoy were punching a cushion, a sport
which hag limits of enjoyment.
' In the second place, several days were
"permitted to elapse before the "market
reflected the Intrnt1iiMln f ti. , ..
mins railroad bill in the Senate. That
measure was too well summarized to fall
ln.Jmparting n fairly clear idea of its
provisions. The fact of its Introduction
was sufficiently constructive nnd did not
require the passing of immediate judg
ment on, Its merits.
Jt was not supposed that the bill had
the slightest chance of passage as it
stood, but it was readily recognized as
forming -n. basis for discussion and as n
tarter for Congress earnestly to tackle
the problem nf innin. .. , . .
Jo their owners. It was also recognized
as an effort to satisfy labor, capital and
which' nV . h0se nmbl"s effort!
which often falls to satisfy anybody,
nlt-liV.0' flm"- bp '"' f"r the
2 llmll ? 8,e meri in nn atte'"Pt

JWItiatlve and incentive which have
eo,n,P S' rfl"road 8ystrtn of this
rZf. ?x. U ?"nf conc'S'Ion must be
? !r? th,'e ho fpnr- amI not entirely
groundlessly, that there may be a re
turn to capital itbuses.
Would Prohibit Strikes
If security Issues arc to be closely
scrutinized by gpvernmeut authority,
MMf0iherTAauniIT8trikps are t0 be
prohibited. If the Interstate Commerce
Commission is to retain its rights, a
transportation board of five members is
to be organized to share that body's
responsibilities.
The country is to be divided into rate
.aistrlcts, corporations will be under
national laws and not state laws, and
labor will have two representatives in
djrectorates. It provides in case of
congestion for the pooling of transporta
tion facilities. Rates and wage sche
dulesiand the income of the roads in
frelationtto both Is carefully provided for
in the powers secured to the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
'The bill is a gigantic compromise. In
fbort. It makes one hopeful omission.
II does not stipulate that roads must
eann 4 per cent, fi per cent or C per cent
hd no more. Restrictions In that res
pect emanate from the commission after
""lt'has had certlflrnllnn f- n.- .
jtortatton board which is empowered to
Inquire into the state of the credit of
put common carriers to regu
late commerce as amended and inform
iuii oi mo rejatlons between the oper
ating revenues, the operating income
and the net operating income of such
carriers."
While the Senate committee labored
nd brought forth this pnusual bill,
even greater.) promise was seen in the
' work of- the House committee which
has the same purpose in view. Between
fhetwo there is confidence that n work
able basjs, will be founded. Whatever
the frjilt of the labor at this stage, it
ipells'progress.
Bears Aided by Gompers
The bears were given au unexpected
opening yesterday when Mr. Compere's
felegram to the President, who had
Started on his tour of the country In
behalf, of the .peace treaty, was pub
lished. In a nutshell it expressed fear
that the labor leaders could not hold
'the radical elements In the unions in
check unless the President should re
double his efforts to bring about a con
ference between them and Judge Clary
nn"the subject of the steel situation be
fore the union leaders should meet in
Washington next Tuesday,
Why this sudden talk about "bru
lullty," "thuggery" and "awful sit-
tuation" in steel labor circles, when the
esldent had. just left the capital with
e understanding, which the country
aredl with him, that the executive
(ommlttec felt it could promise the
quiescence of labor until the govern -'went

Can You Stand Prosperity?
ITTE HAD just finished lunch and had

5Iy friend was speaking about a young
fellow in his employ whom he had just
' fired. "lib s a clever map, y Know,

I for I should have advanced the chap
! a bit at a time. Ho got too high up
before he got used to an altitude and
An exnresslve Strug of his
1 shoulders finished the sentence.
I lie puffed contentedly at his cigar for
i n minute. Then he broke the silence by
saving:

my lack of reverence for the older order
of things, He bellevetl in iorm nnu u
ing things 'just so' ; yet ne naa an in
tni desire to heln others.
He always had a boy In buttons. He
felt no self-respecting household was
' complete without a boy In buttons.
' My word, the number of boys
In buttons we bad! They never were
satisfactory. The pater final-
ly gave up trying to find a satisfactory

his search for the perfect Doy in wit-

"Xot that the lads were wasters,
I v'know, but It he got a good- lad he left

."Well, he got a lad from the orphan

"He couldn't stand prosperity, so

The pater had a dozen orphans before
he was satisfied that It wouldn't work.
"The only difference was the time

He ' ntopped to relight his cigar.
Then:

Chicago, Sept. 0. A njore hopeful
attitude Is n feature of the trade sit
uation in the West, optimism being ex
pressed in regard to labor outlook as
well as in regard to other phases of
the situation which have created more
or less concern recently.
With bank deposit, both state and
national, of record proportions, retail
trade 'of the greatest vofume ever
known, and industrial reports reflecting
increasing production in many lines,
there is less tendency to be worried
over foreign exchange or conditions

At nearly all c'lcs and towns In the
West, with the exception of Chicago,
the building operations are expanding
steadily. This Is creating an undercur
rent of confidence. In Chicago building
operations are still held up by the ob
stinacy of the carpenters.
The volume of steel production is in
creasing, and with the prospects for an
indefinite delay in labor troubles due
to the reduced living costs, manufactur
ers are going ahead with much greater
confidence, and steel mills are now mak
ing plans to take care of the big busi
ness offered
The general slump in cereal prices
which has been a feature of the trade
the last two weeks, has created a much
more confident atmosphere, and, as
prices are still high enough, to insure
I Eood returns to farmers, the readjust
ment is regarded as a favorable influ
ence so far as the economic situation as
a whole is concerned.
Money rates are unchanged, and there
is no lack of funds available for all
commercial purposes.

Instead of just swelling up. "
hen I parted with my friend I
thought of different fellows I had known
who couldn't stand prosperity. Some
just blazed like a skyrocket across
the landscape of business and then sud

They had no foundation under them.
They shot up instead of climbed up, and
the result was foregone.
It wants real ability and humility
to stand sudden prosperity. It requires
deeds not words to maintain a dizzy

heart and an absence of selfishness and
snobbery.
It takes real bigness to stand pros

I Can rou tell me If shoe manufacture
have ever satisfactorily aucceeded tn selling
shoes to the trade In any other way than
through their own stleamen? K. It. Q.
One of the largest shoe concerns in
the world sells to the small country
stores by what they call the client -salesman.
That is, they pack a trunk of
shoes and send them to one store, where
the buyer picks out whdt he wants.
After he has done this he packs up the
shoe and tends them on to the next
small town .as desired by the makers.
Some shoe manufacturers are reducing
thet amount of samples their salesmen
carry, supplying them instead with a

A A. Schneider, formerly with the
raw-materials department of the Mid

the Cambria Steel Company, has been
appointed manager of the newly created
raw materials division of the American
Steel Export Company. In his new

The Sinclair Gulf Corporation, which
is to be taken into the merger of Sin
clair oil properties under the name of
the Sinclair Consolidated Oil Corpora
tion, intends to erect a model city in
connection with the Houston refinery,
which will operate its first unit this
autumn. It is to be known as Sineo.
The new plant, when in full operation.
It is said, will require 30,000 barrels of
crude oil daily.
The call loan rate on acceptances,
which was reduced by J. P. Morgan &
Co. a week or so ago to 4 per cent,
has gone back to 4i per cent. This,
it is generally felt, is consistent with
the call rate on security collateral loans,
where the market has fluctuated be
tween fl per cent and 4 per cent dur
ing the week.
STATE OF TRADE
The trade reviews of the last week
report an Improvement in business sen
timent, although there has been a
check on buying in large primary mar
kets. Buyers are demanding expensive
goods, but the supply is inadequate to
meet the demand.
Dun's says:
Dullness sentiment In the present uncer
tain period Is susceptible to uulck fluc
tuation, and this week brought n sudden
reversal of feeling. The turn has been for
the better, and a less threatening labor
outlook xhlefly explains It, rresh atrlkea
of magnitude that had seemed to be Im
pending have fortunately failed to develop,
thus clearing the atmosphere, and benefits
may conceivably accrue from the proposal
for a conference on the Industrial situation
In October. The who.a question- of wage
adjustment la obviously bound up with the
high-price problem, which la everywhere
caualng agitation and which haa left an
Unmistakable Imprint on conditions. While
xenewed Impetus Is glren to manufacturing
and distribution as the lacatlon season
draws to Its closing, and though there la
conspicuous nativity on work previously
taken.. e,t the fact remains that new busi
ness fir some Important lines la now dls-,
Qnctly hesitant, and that there la greater
conservatism reapeettag the future. The
change-of-bulng policy haa not come do
cause all needs have been satisfied or be
cause aupplles are so plentiful that re
quirements can be filled without difficulty,
but has resulted mainly from the recent
price Melding and the growing belief that
the reaction will be extended

Bradstreet's says:
Briefly stated, best trsds reports come

Weat Good retail buying of dry goods,

Jewelr, autoa and housefumlshlngs Is
noted The seeking by buyers of expensive

and complaint of euppllea of merchandise
being unequal to demand la equally widely
heard, and the prevalence of high rente

buying Is had In the reports of leading
mall order distributors that sales are 20
per cent ahead of 1018 for eight months,

possibly because nearby output la already

.OPERATIONS IN STEEL
MILLS ON INCREASE
Opinion General That Condi
tions in Industry Will Remain
Settled for Some Month3
New Yorli, Sept. C The Improved
outlook ln the labor situation has
brought with it a better demand for
steel products, according to some of the
best authorities In this city. In nddl-.
tion, the mills of the country are again
increasing operations, and it is the
general opinion nt present that condi
tions will remain settled for several
months nt least,
In some quarters It Is stated Ihnt the
outlook for the steel 'industry at the
moment is as good ns it has been at
any previous time. It is insisted that
consumers will purchase for their re
quirements, nnd thj fact that It Is dlfu
rult to place orders for many products
is pointed to as indicating the situation
as It exists at this time.
Considerable interest Is shown in the
fact that the Cambria Steel Company,
a subsidiary of tho Mithnlc Steel and
Ordnance Company, hns quoted nn nd
vanco of fifteen cents to $.1.50 per 100
pounds, Pittsburgh, for steel bars nnd a
similar increase to 3.20 per 100
pounds for steel bands. It is believed
that Bcveral other Independent com
panies will follow thelcnd of the Cam
bria company, especially in view of the
trport that some business has been re
ceived nt the new figures. Honecr,
thus fnr the other companies nre btill
quoting the old prices.
The Cambria company nlso took the
lead In advancing the price for forging
billets. While many other makers nre
asking the old figure of $51 per ton,
this company has named $54 per ton on
all the Inquiries which hnve come into
the market. It is not known as yet
whether any orders were placed nt the
new quotation.
Tho situation In wijr products con
tinues excellent. There Is a large de
mand and all the independent manu
facturers are asking the advanced
prices. The leading interest, the Ameri
can Steel nnd Wire Company, however,
continues to quote the old figures which
were fixed months ago by the steel
authorities. Xone of the independents,
for instance, will quote under il.BO
cents per pound for wire nails, whereas
American Steel and Wire is still holding
to S.Sfl cents per pound.
