Public Complains of Prices,
but Buys More Luxuries
NEW YORK, Jan. 1. —The past year, which* normally should have
been the “reconstruction year,” following the great war, with adjustments
back to a peace basis in the business, financial and industrial world, has
been marked by labor troubles and financial problems of the first magnitude.
In normal times of peace they might have led to a panic, but the United
States is emerging triumphant, and the outlook is full of promise.
These troubles, which have so greatly
retarded ft return to normal condition*,
have not been confined to any one coun
tiy. They have virtually been world
wide. But in the United States they
were emphasized by the fact that Europe
had been looking to this country to take
n leading part in the rehabilitation of the
world's trade and industry.
The delay over the peace treaty, which
culminated in the United States in the
rejection of the treaty by the senate in
November, created an atmosphere of un
certainty which was felt throughout the
whole realm of business.
WORLD KNIT
CLOSE TOGETHER.
The war had brought the United States
and Europe more closely together than
they had ever been before. Consequently
developments in Industry, business and
finance have had a closer reciprocal effect.
When 400,000 coal miners went on strike
In this country It struck the chill fear
of a coal famine Into the heart of Europe.
Wliefn the clouds of bankruptcy loomed
upon the horizon In Europe American
bankers began active operations to help
stave It off.
Labor unrest, accompanied in some
quarters by threats of bolshevism, has
caused apprehension in both America and
Europe. Hasty steps have been taken to
combat it on both sides of the Atlantic.
The fears were about equally divided.
Europe knew that a tie-up of American
industry would prevent shipments of
goods that Europe must have If she is to
recover. And America knew that indus
trial paralysis in Europe would choke off
production that must be forthcoming if
commerce is to be* stabilized and the ex
change rates restored to normal.
BUSINESS GLUTS
U. S. FACTORIES.
Here, then, w;as the situation in brief.
American factories were glutted with or
ders from at home and abroad, but labor
would have to be brought back to r con
tented frame of mind: ships must be se
cured; exchange rates must be equalized
so that an English pound sterling would
be worth §4.86 In the United States In
stead of less than $4, to which it had
dropped; credits mnst be arranged so
that the needed raw materials could be
secured by Europe In the United States
without immediate payment. Theme were
the big problems upon which the cap
tains cf industry and finance were at
work at the end of this year.
The cost of living has been a
problem everywhere and has contributed
to the goner'*! Bn rest. Coupled with high
prices was a general Increase of taxation,
adding ftill further to the popular dis
satisfaction. There is little likelihood of
a return to pre-war conditions for a long
while. When congress opened it was
estimated that it would cost #5.000.000,000
to run the country through the coming
fiscal year.
However, these were difficulties which
economic experts promised would be
naturally adjusted If production were in
creased in every branch of activity—in
dustrial and agricultural.
CO-OPERATION IN
WORK NEARS.
There has been a curious intermingling
of business and politics In this connec
tion, but there are now evidences of co
operation between the two factions of our
.national life in an effort to allay national
unrest, which, if not checked, might prove
fatal to both.
American business interests have been
doing their utmost to take advantage of
foreign trade openings, not only In Eu
rope, but In the orient and South Amer
ica. Large difficulties have loomed up
here, nnjpng them one that has never
bothered the United States before In all
of Its commercial history; that is, the
balance of trade. During the last few
months It has been shown that the trade
balance In favor of this country has been
running forward at the estimated rate of
$2,800,000,000 a year and there is no
ilmlnutlon in sight.
In the single month of October 13,688,675
bushels of valued at $33,010,872
were exported. In the ten months up to
Nov. 1, $793,814,020 worth of breadstuffs.
$774,4*3,702 worth of cotton, nnd $1,033,-
776,252 worth of meat and dairy products
were exported from the United States.
All of these figures show big gains over
the same period of last year.
farm products
WORTH $7,000,000,000.
It Is estimated that the farm products
this year approximate $7,000,000,000 In
value. Corn led the cereal crops, but the
cotton yield was one of the shortest In
volume and medium grades In the recent
history of the country.
Europe has not got the goods to send
to this country to stabilize exchange
rates. If European factories and farmers
were producing in largo amounts their
exports to America could be used to
meet the cost of our exports to Europe
and the exchange rates would fall to
the pre-war level. The English pound
sterling dropped last month to $3.86,
which ig just a dollar below Its pre-war
value.
The gold standard has already been
suspended in most of the European*coun
trles.
In the meantime Europe is culling for
iron and coal, wheat, corn, cotton, cop
per, meats and manufactured products.
American. British and French econom
ic experts have united In predicting dis
aster for F rope unless there is a change
from prest it conditions.
BANKERS MOVE
TO AID EUROPE.
Steps have been taken by a group of
bankers to remedy This state of affairs, j
5 nanW'fll committee on European finance
\ias with Harry A. Wheeler, j
sTißgo baVker, at Its head, to study
European pronVuns. f
One complaint of economists is that the
American people do not give sufficient
consideration toifhe dangers of the inter
national situation.
Despite strikes, hampered production,
excessively high prices and uncertainty
over peace problems, this country Is en
joying prosperity. United States has a
bumper wheat Crop this yoar of 918,471,000 ,
bushels, against 917,100,000 bushels last
year. The corn crop was bigger, too,
being 2,910,250.000 bushel?, aff*lnst 2,582,-
814,000 bushels in 1918. The oats crop
Was about 300,000,000 bushels lower than
1818, while the cotton cronfell off about
Ll .846,000 bales

Its territory extends from
Pennsylvania on the East to
the Pacific Coast, and from
the Gulf to the Canadian
border.
standing this fact it was estimated in
November that one-half of the reserve
coal supply of the world was held in
this country until it was reduced by the
bituminous strike.
CRUDE OIL
OUTPUT GROWS.
The crude oil production of the United
States reached the stupendous total of
34.487,000 barrels in the single month of
September. The silver mines of .be west
have been unable to cope with the tre
mendous foreign demand and the metal
has been selling around SI.BB an ounce,
the highest price known for it here in the
history of sliver trading.
The people have plenty of money. The
amount of money in circulation was esti
mated ip December ai approximately
$5,816,925,779, or *54.63 per capita. The
farmers got higher prices for their
products than at any other time In years.
The commercial failures during the year
averaged from 100 to 130 a week, but the
bulk of them were small and unimportant.
While the people complain of the high
cost of necessities. It Is a paradoxical fact
that the manufactories turning out
luxuries and the jobbers handling them
are taxed to the utmost with orders.
While the dollar today has less than half
of the purchasing power it had before
the war, the general public has been and
still Is spending with a lavish hand. The
diamond Imports to the United States this
year were estimated at $100,000,000, nearly
twice wbat they were last year.
To some extent the war taught the
people the investment habit, due prin
cipally to the various Liberty bond cam
paigns.
BOND DEALINGS
GREATEST EVER.
The bond dealings In November of this
year were far ahead of any other No
vember In the history of the market.
Sales of bonds durlDg that month ag
gregated $358,871,250.
More than $1,000,000,000 worth of Lib
erty bonds have been hought bj the
Urited States treasury and retired dur
ing the past year and a half, yielding
the government a profit of approximately
$35,000,000, and reducing the public debt.
Purchases were made to stahllbe the
market for these securities, the par vnl
ue being $1,043,080,500 and the cost to
the government $993,363,526, In addition
to $14,204,779 accrued interest.
There were waves of heavy selling of
Liberty bonds during November, creating
new low price levels. In one day, Nov.
26, over .$17,000,000 worth of war bonds
and notes changed hands.
MANY FOREIGN
LOANS FLOATED.
The following foreign loans were
floated In this country during the year:
Great Britain. 20-.vear. $28,179,000:
Great Britain, 3-10-year. $250,000,000,
French municipals: Bordeaux. $15,009/100;
Lyons, $15,000,000; Marseilles. $15.000.00o!
Republic of China, 2-year, $5,500,000.
Sweden. $25,000,000. Switzerland, $30,000-
00Q, Canada. 10-year, $00,000,000. Canada.
2-year $15,000,000. Rio de Janeiro. $lO.-
000,000. City of Sao Paulo, $8,500,000.
Copenhagen, $15,000,000. Canadian mu
nicipals: Toronto, $1,000,000; Province of
Ontario. $1,000,000; Manitoba, $500,000;
New Brunswick, $1,000,000; Ontario, $4,-
000,000; Vancouver, $2,600,000; Ontario,
$500,000.
There were a number of great ques
tions of national Importance to the busi
ness world before the country when con
gress convened Dec. 1:
1. The Mexican situation and the
threat of a rupture.
2. Pending negotiations between
the miners and operators for a settle
ment of the coal strike, following tho
rejection by the miners of a proposed
wage Increase of 14 per cent.
3. Unrest among the railway employes
with strike threats In some quarters.
4. The absence of any definite plan
for giving financial assistance to the
railways when they were turned over
to their private owners by the govern
ment. ,
5. Growing dissatisfaction over the
Increasing cost of living, the price ot
necessities in the east having jumped
144 per cent in October and early No
vember.
Gloomy predictions of “financial disas
ter’' if the railroads were turned back
with no provisions for financial support
were heard throughout December.
Keen students of the labor situation
believe that the eristic of industrial un
rest in this country has been reached and
passed. v
Big industrial enterprises are making
plans for expansion that will run into
many millions of dollars. A tremendous
building boom In every part of the coun
try is expected, despite the high cost
of brick, timber and nails.
While America is growing at home it
Is planned to win back as much os pos
sible of her old-time commercial prestige
on the high seas. The federal shipping
board, in addition to its great program
for the construction of freighters, ar
ranged tciestablish passenger lines on
all of themportant ocean routes. Thl?
project caßed for about sfcxty passenger
liners. Aut half of them were former
German snips and had been used as
transports by the United States. Twenty
mo others were ships that the United
States had ordered for transport service
after this country entered the war.

bly, according to political leaders and
suffrage workers.
Oov. Beeckman says: “I have advocated

time the legislature Indorsed this meas
ure. As they will be obliged to do so
sooner r later, the sooner they do so

was followed by dancing. The New
Year’s eve celebration at the Athenaeum
was highly successful. Dancing, vaude
ville features and .a supper were on the
program. ’
The advent of 1920 was celebrated in
royal style at. the Independent Ath
letic and Canoe club. The main ball
room was thronged with dancers and
cabaret features were interspersed during
the dancing program.
As the old year died and the Dew
came in the club was filled with shouts,
blowing of horns and toasts to the new
year. Dancing was the chief source of
entertainment.
CHURCHES HOLD
IVATCH PARTIES.
Many Indianapolis persons welcomed
the new year at watch parties and spe
cial devotional services In the churches.
Musical programs were given at some of
the edifices. •
One of the most unusual New Year’s
eve events was at the Third Christian
church. A track meet opened the pro
gram and was followed by a program
given by the Sunday school classes.
Music and recitations preceded the serv
ices which were conducted by Rev.
Thomas W. Grafton.
At the Central Reformed church the
service flag of the members of the con
gregation who served In the world war
was lowered and placed with the church
relics. A literary nnd social program
marked the watch services at the Irving
ton Methodist church. At the North
Park Christian church a special musical
program was a feature. Th* Wheeler
Rescue Mission held a midnight praise
service.
NEW YORK HAS
ONE WILD ORGY
NEW YORK, Jan. I.—This U a city
with a headache. For New York was
recovering from the wildest and wettest
spree In its entire career. '
The new year literally floated in on
an ocean of booze, and the old year was
drowned In the same flood. The big
betels, restaurants and cabarets turned
away thousands of persons who had
neglected to make reservations days or
weeks in advance, at from $lO to SSO a
reservation.
Practically every one brought his, or
her, own refreshments. They were car
ried In pocket3. traveling bags, suit cases,
old umbrellas and in one or two in
stances drawn on children's sleds. Some
of the cases fulfilled advance notices by
giving away bottles of wine and whisky
to “old friends.” In many places it
seemed the degree of one’s friendship was
determined by the size of their pocket
book.
At midnight the popping of corks and
clink of- glasses was temporarily
drowned in a bedlam of whir,ties, guns,
shouts and tooting of horn*.
CHICAGO HAS
TAME CELEBRATION
CHICAGO. Jan. I.—While Chicago’s
New Year’s celebration was rather tafne
compared with previous ypars there was
no particular shortage of booze. The
cabarets and cases locked their doors
early when all available accommodations
had been gobbled up. Police bad orders
to take the names of those who carried
liquor on their hips.
Calculating ocean depths by means o(
sound Is tbe purpose of anew Invention,
the marimeter, which sends a sound to
tbe bottom to be returned as an echo.
