LZe Change Seen In
Financial Conditions
' European War Continues to Exert Overruling Influ
', " ence Over Business Activities of the Entire
Country-Call Money Drops.
VBdOntit conditions changed little
ttaftqg the put WMk, the EuropMn
war -still exerting tho overruling Intlu
eao over th financial and commercial
activities of the country.
Though call money haa again .dropped
to. 3 per cent; as compared with the
Wgh rata of 6 per cent being aakd by
baalttra a, few weeks ago, the sccurl
tlaa market are dragging along in
tata of dullneas and on, the great New
York exchange none of the "big" men
ara willing to take the ' Initiative In
rtlng i prices on an upward trend.
Asked aa to tho reason for this atti
tude, men who have led bull markets
at, times past when the money situation
was not nearly so favorable, reply that
th future Is too uncertain to make
commitments of proportions sufficient
to Influence the market. The greatest
factor making for this uncertainty, they
ay, Is the question as to when the
European war will end. .
Added to this dominant factor Is the
serious labor problem .confronting the
railroads, and the fact that Congress
is going to start a thoroun investiga
tion of th railroads. While this In
vestigation Is the result of a suggestion
made by the railroads themselves, many
students of railroad problems fesr that
n it was unwise to have stirred up the
"animals."
That the condition of railroads haa
materially Improved in tho past year is
clearly evidenced by the reports now
coming forth for the fiscal year ended
June. SO.
Tho Southern Pacific, one of the first
railroads to report earnings for the en
tire twelvo months' period, gives an In
dication of what may be expected of
other roads. It not only established the
highest record for gross earnings In Its
history, but In all probability earned
the largest balance for Its stock. The
gross Is given as 152,691.228. This leaves
an estimated surplus for dividends of
31.800,259, or 11.7 per cent on the stock.
It Is clear that New York Central will
set up a new high record of earnings
this year, Judging from the results of
the first six months. Gross earnings
from January 1 through the first two
weeks In July were In excess of flOS,
000,000. This represents a gain of over
123,000,000, or 28 per cent, over last year.
The Incroaso In the first two weeks of
July, compared with the corresponding

William S. Kles, vice president of the
National City Bank, says In the July
number of .the Americas:
"This country was never before In
anything like the strong Industrial posi
tion, as regards well constructed plants
able to turn out great volumes of
product, at low unit costs, as now.
Slany of our, best Industrial companies
handled munitions business, or took
contracts for supplying extraordinary
amounts of a great variety of supplies
called for by the war. They took this
temporary business on a wise basis
buildings or machinery was necessary,
on terms sucn aa io tnum ui
pay for the Increase Immediately out of
the profits, on the theory that the sur
plus plant capacity could be 'scrapped'
after the abnormal demand was over.
"The earnings of some of these com
panies have been such as to have per
mitted the declaration of dividends ns
high aa 40 to W per cent had the proflts
been distributed to stockholders. But
the managements of these companies
have pursued a sound, conservative
financial policy. They have not
dectared extravagant dividends, but
have been content to make smaU In
creases In tho rate. The large extra
profits have beep used by them In well
distributed permanent improvements
which will hereafter mean a reduction
i i
' ; hi
I ln'cpu of normal production. In many
( Instances th,oy haVo wiped out extensive
iiunuiif iiiuouicuiivBa finu reiureu yur-
tlons of their bondod debt The coun
try's Industries are, 'therefore, In a
stronger financial position and able to
produce more economically and In larger
volumes thnn ever before.
"The problem now confronting the na
tion's Industries Is to find a way to
use this splendid manufacturing equip
ment for all It Is worth without over
production, anovir .possible, without
'scrapping' tho-nlant and machinery So'
?ulrd'for. temporary use, but fully ptfld
or and available, if some new use can
be found for It. It Is a problem of
superabundance of .production facilities
and necessity of broadening our markets'
to the run measure or a great oppor
tunity. We mutt look forward to a
time wheh It will be necessary to auh.
stttute permanent business for the war
oraera or we win not oe producing at
the par of our Increased Industrial
capability."

New York 'Paper Continue to
. Paint' Country's ' Prospeots
in Rosy Colors.
The New York papers continue to
day to paint the financial and com
mercial outlook of the country In
rosy colors.
International and national events
both are singled out as promising an
uninterrupted period o prosperity for
the entire nation.
Of particular Interest Is vtho follow
ing, from today's New York Times:
Two 'years, ago, when th great
4 war was about to begin, there was
the greatest of apprehension
among manufacturers and other
producers, as well as business men,
as to what was n storo for them.
' As usual under such circum
stances, many took counsel of
their fears and acted as though
ruin wero cortaln to follow in tho
wake of the trade disturbances
that must accompany a world war.
At that time there were
printed In these columns certain
predictions Intended to reassure
the timid ones.
What was then prophecy has now
become history. The activity of
Industrial plants and the tremend
ous oxports of munitions and food
stuffs aro prettv definitely known
to all persons. Not so much stress,
however, has been laid on tho
number of new Industries estab
lished In this country which pro
due articles that used to bo ob
tained from abroad, and which
will endure after tho war Is ended.
Large, however, as the total ex
ports loom up, the ngures still are
small In comparison with the do
mestic production. It has been es
timated that even the record
breaking outbound shipments of
the past fiscal vear, amounting to
over 14,300,000.000, are less than

the annual Increase In production
In this country,
The 'New Tork'Bun makes this com
ttienti In studying tho money market It
must bo borne In mind that, ali
though the ordinary demand for ac
commodation Js light, there are ex
.traqrdlnary factors In the situation
that may bo expected to prevent a
long period of case, such ,as pre
vailed In 1915, and Inthe greater part
bf tho first half of the current year.
There arc, now sources from which
the demand for loanable ifunds has
,been coming and will continue to
come, probably In Increased volume,
Just so long as the European war
runs on, and even after the end of
.the conflict. This demand' Will In-
ciuao more nnancing tor lorsign
powers and for the nnancing of
foreign-held American securities,
whlcli aro being offered and will con
tinue to be oftored In the local mar
ket. Foreign liquidation of our se
curities Is looming bigger aa a tem
porary restraining Influence In stock
market speculation for higher prices,
a reflection of which Is presented In
tho constant addition to the list of
. American issues available for the
British treasury's mobilizing plans
This comment Is contained In the New
York World:
The stock market Is full of attract
ive investment and speculative ' op
portunities. There never was a time
in the memory of the veterans of
Wall Street when the return from
reasonably safe railroad and Indus
trial, public utility, and mining
stocks was so liberal In comparison
with their current market price and
future prospects.

says a writer in the Dally Mall, "Is an
official organisation to make- use of.

for the above named purposes."
