Speculation as to post-war con-!
ditions hold the centre of the stage, j
For a long time to come their focal ;
point will be Washington. This ?
country lias been up till this Avar
relatively i'vtie from governmental
domination. To-day five or six men
at Washington hold the immediate
future of this country in their
hands. First of all comes .Mr. Mc
Adoo, at the head of the railways
and at the head o?' the Treasury.
He may elect for immediate rail?
way rehabilitation and expansion,
or lie may elect to retrench. It is
within his power to continue the
giving of large credits to our allies.
or to stop them short. The extent
of their buying in the markets of
this country largely depends upon
his choice. At the head of the
banks and likewise at the head of
railway finance is the well known
raihvaj financier. Mr. Skelton
Williams. The power exercised
over the banks by the present Con?
troller of. the Currency is almost,
autocratic. With the backing of Mr.
McAdoo and the: assistance of the
Federa! Reserve Board, 'ne has an
almost strangle hold on banking
polie... Th?se five or six men will
determino whether the present po?
icj of low rate, of discount ana
unlimited credit expansion may con?
tinue, or whether a sharp contrae

In the hands of the President and
Mr. Gompers, very largely, is the

over {?rices and production in man*,
'lilies For six months after peace is
proclaimed. And there are very large
problems involved in the speed with
which we shall continue shipbuild?
ing, and the disposition of ?hese
?Inns after they arc ready. On all
this vast power Congress can exer?
cise vesy little restraint, even if it
were so minded. And For some time
to come it will continue to be not so
minded.
In a word, the business and tin an
cial centre of this country is now
no longer New York or Wall Street.
For a good while to come it will
continue to be Washington. Thence
?ornes the issue of prosperity 01
disturbance and depression. Then

power of the Secretary of the
Treasury and the Federal Reserve
Board to control and check. Prompt
application of high interest rates by
the Federal Reserve banks could
at once retire two billions of redis?
counts, which are now almost pure
inflation. And such a policy would
exercise a farreaching effect upon
the whole banking and credit
structure of the country. Xot at
any time since the Civil War, not
even in the dark days of Re?
sumption, or of free silver and
Bryanism, has it been so largely
given to the Administration m
power deeply to influence the pros?
perous trend of the nation's affairs
and the happiness of its people.
Optimistic forecasts are offered
as to the great demand for locomo?
tives and railway equipment that
will come with peace. It is well
known that our o v. n railway capac?
ity has not kept pace with the in?
creased demands of the last four
years. And that of Germany, Aus?
tria and other warring countries
must be at a low ebb. Of Russin we
know this to be true. If the? Brit?
ish, French and German factories
ai'e kept busy for the next year or
two supplying their dome-tic de?
mand, that will leave a wide field
open lo the companies in the United
States. It is reckoned that some?
thing like ii quarter of the total

steel consumption in this country
is absorbed bj our railways. They
are. indeed, the largest i-stee] buyers.
If our export business in railway
equipment and supplies should be
large, the normal percentage might
be considerably increased. In part,
;.t leas', buying .for our railways
will 'ne under the control of the
Federal Railway Administration. A
liberal policy in such purchases, and
in financing tlie railways to make
such purchases, would go \';.r ?o
ii :le over that decrease in the de?
mand for steel which so manj pre
diet with confidence i;? consequence
of the cessation of tli" war's de?
mands, 'liiere seems here oppor?
tunity for highly intelligent action
on the part of the railway adminis?
tration that would be far, indeed,
removed from the normal kind of
governmental interference in mat?
ters of rail transportation.
The extent of our contributions
to i he food supply of Europe, in the
last year or two especially, is in?
dicated in the figures as to the total
exports for the last fiscal year, now
published, and the averages of the
three years preceding the war, In
the twelve months up to the 1st ?f
last July, we wer* shipping three
times the average amount of beef,
nearly twice the usual amount of
pork, twenty times the dairy prod?
ucts, three times the normal amount
of sugar, and nearly double tin.
total quantity of grain. For July
many of these items were double
and even triple the shipments for;
July of the preceding year. In this
time, as is well? known, the total of
farm products in the country, ex?
cept in meat, was but little above
the pre-war averages. This means
that in the last year there has been
a genuine contraction in the amount
of food consumed in the country, a
real food saving. ,This, in the face
of the enormous expansion in the
buying power of the community, is
a notable triumph. It will be in?
teresting to observe how far this
war thrift will continue when the
existing restrictions arc removed,
for it does not appear that there
will be a great, immediate decrease
in this buying power. If there is
not, it is not overly clear as to
where the anticipated decline in the
cost of ??vine; will come. Europe's
demands must run far above nor?
mal for at least a year to come.
With the utter prostration of pro?
duction in Russia, the return of
Germany, with its 70,000,000 to the
world's markets, will ! be an added
factor in the probable demand. It
is a very remarkable fact that for
several years after our Civil War
the price of wheat and some other
commodities averaged much higher
than during the war, in spite of the
return of a million men, in the
North alone, to what was then much
more of a country of farmers and
food producers than this nation is
now.
Bradstreet's figures for bank
clearings fur the whole countrj
show for tiie ten months of thi:
year a total of 'J?!',1 billions as
against 27,1 billions For the same
period last year. Allowing For an
increase In the average price, of
goods uni! f-ervices exchangpd of
?nly In per cent, this would indi?
cate a lessened volume of trade, in
spite of the vast expenditures by
the government, and ail the stimu?
lation that attaches thereto. There,
can be from this only one deduc?
tion, and thut is. that the actual
contraction in many lines of indus?
tries has been considerable. For
otherwise, if there had been any
large expansion in production, this,
?th an unquestionable increase in
the average of all prices, would
have meant a corresponding increase
in bank clearings. As one bit of
evidence for such a contraction,
building permits issued in October
were one-half of those of it year
ago and Jess than one-sixth of those
of October two years ago.
The upturn of money rates last
week to the slablized level of the
last three months indicated that the
easing of conditions for a few days
?was only temporary, as was to be
! expected. 'the payment of large
suii.s on fourth Liberty bonds on
the ?lay the first instalment fell due
: left the banks momentarily with a
, surplus. And, inasmuch as the effec?
tive demand of brokers for call
| money was rigidly limited by the
resti'ictions of the money authori
ties, rates declined. But government '
withdrawals last week changed that
condition and call money was again
put out at 6 per cent on loans se-'
cured by mixed collateral and 6?t?
per cent on loans secured by indus?
trial collateral. Comparatively little j
new time money was offered, and,
most of that which was available was
for thirty days. In response to the
wirespread criticism of fixing fhe
level of loans on September 16 as
the arbitrary standard to which all
present loans for Stock Exchange
purposes had to conform, the board
of governors of the exchange ap?
pointed a committee of five to con?
sider the general situation and to
confer with the bankers who com?
prise the money committee. Ac?
cording to those best informed, the
new committee is seeking to re?
move the inequities in the present
restrictions rather than to have
them rescinded. The brokers' com?
mittee held informal meetings last
week, and. although no public an?
nouncement has been made, it is
probable that it will be ready to com?
municate with the money committee
at its next regular meeting.
