Butler’s Charges Aired
Before Welfare Board
(l cm imini from Page One.)
was eager to get in line on Mr. But
1 ler's psychology.
t "I believe that Mrs. Johnson and
i Mrs. Melia have told the truth In
! their testimony and should be pro
I tected,” said Mr. Butler. "Prom re
marks I have heard around the table
1 would infer that they will be re
| placed.”
Objects to Comment.
“I don't like insinuations unless
you are ready to shoot square,” re
plied Member Clark Colt.
In his written charges, Mr. Butler
I alleged that on the occasion of the
December incident Superintendent
Wilson said to Mrs. Johnson: “Butler
don’t look any different to me than
anyone else.”
In her testimany Mrs. Johnson stat
ed that Mr. Wilson merely stated that
all cases that carne to his office would
receive the same treatment, whether
from Butler or anyone else.
The case that caused the ruction
was that of a Mrs. Ollie Tullis of the
South Ride, who called at the acting
mayor's office for assistance. Mr. But
ler reformed the case to the welfare de
partment for investigation and report.
The records of the welfare office show
that the case was investigated within
two hours after being reported. Mrs.
Johnson testified that during the
last six weeks harmony has existed
in the welfare office.
Mrs. Johnson tostfinl that when she
was Inspecting dance places two
managers told her that Mr. Wilson
had permitted them to disregard
certain public regulations and that at
one place she was humiliated.
“I could not work for a nicer man,”
was the testimony of Miss Esther Wil
son. the superintendent's stenog
rapher.
"Mr. Wilson is a very busy man.
He puts in long hours,” said Gertrude
I.ucas.
Superintendent Wilson reruted the
testimony which had been offered
against him. He said that in the Tul
lis case Mrs. Johnson wanted to
handle the case herself, although It
was Miss Mullen's case.
"Mrs. Johnson was operating a lit
tle welfare hoard of her own, was
she?” asked Mr. Monsky.
Inteneded No Discourtesy.
Mr. Wilson added that he intended
no discourtesy toward Mr. Butler nor
the mayor's office.
•"Our office is a vey husy place,”
said Mr. Wilson, "and sometimes we
may speak quickly or even sharp
ly. but no discourtesy is intended.”
A bootless discussion followed over
dance hall supervision, Mr. Butler ask
ing why a certain downtown dance
place was not required to have a reg
ular inspector.
‘‘I think it is for this board and
not for Mr. Butler to adopt a dance
hall policy,” retortetd Member Coit.
Requisition Refused.
Bismarck, N. *D., Jan. 28.—Gover

the requisition of the state of Mon

The Business Barometer
This Week's Outlook in Commerce, Finance, Agriculture
and Industry Based on Current Developments.
By THEODORE H. PRICE
Editor, Commerce and Finance, New York.
Copyright, 10513.
An advance of from 12 to 15 per cent
in the price of tailor made clothing was
predicted by the secretary of the National
Merchant Tailor Designers' association in
session at St Louis last week, and a tele
gram from St. Johns. Newfoundland, re
porta that the extensive iron mines there
have ahut down because the German
manufacturers who had contracted for
their output were no longer able to take It.
These two seemingly unimportant news
Hems are quoted because they connote
some tendencies generally discernible.
Price* are advancing and production is
decreasing in the United States, chiefly
because labor is scarce and the buying
power of Europe la diminishing as the
French occupation of the Ruhr brings
hearer the day when the industrial paraly
sis ef Germany may be followed by revo
lution or war.
Economic Impasse.
If these tendencies are not checked
America and KuVope will both be drawn
Into an economic impasse from which they
can only escape with great travail, but in
tha United States at least the enesthesia
«? advancing prices has made many un
conscious of the danger.
The result is that tho firmness of most
markets is mistaken for prosperity and
those who have goods to sell think them
selves better off because the money of
their euatomers will buy less than for
merly.
It remains to be seen how the ultimate
r-onsumer will act v^hen retail prices are
raised, an they must be. to a parity with
the wholesale markets, but recent history
suggests that he may reduce his pur
chases unless wages and agricultural
profits are speedily Increase^
That the wage earners intend to make
on effort to balance their budgets by
vetting higher pay is already evident from
the demands that are being made by their
union leaders, but the farmers and the
army of “white collar’* workers who are
not organized have no means of protect
ing themselves and It seems certain that
they will be compelled to buy less as tho
purchasing power of their dollar dim
inishes.
May Minimize Consequences.
To write in this strain Is distasteful
to a temperamental optimist, but I should
be recreant to my duty if I expressed my
self otherwise. By caution and economy
it may be possible for us to minimize the
consequences that are otherwise certain to
follow the waste of a “near war’’ in Eu
rope. but we shall indeed t>e fatuous and
foolish if we think we can remain un
affected by it
Specifically, the week's developments aro
not otherwise Important Tho stock mar
ket has been comparatively quiet. A
small sensation was created by a drop
in some of the automobile securities with
which the name of a meteoric manufac
turer has become associated.
The railway shares were on the other
hand In greater favor because it 1s day
by day becoming plainer that government
operation or ownership is inevitable un
less the consolidations for which the Esch
«*ummins bill provides are speedily made.
Some of the bolder executives have not
hesitated to express themselves in this
sense and as it is realized that there
are many properlties that will be worth
wore consolidaton than as separate en
tities speculation ha.s been directed to
ward the low-priced rails upon the en
tirely tenable theory that they will be
most benefited by an alliance with their
stronger competitors.
The bond market has been quieter.
Since the first of the year it has been
called upon to absorb over $800,000,000
of new offerings. Time will be required for
the digestion of a meal so large, and
period of dullness is to be expected.
There was a slight. flurry In "non
taxable*." Including the Liberty 3t£s. when
thn house passed a bill submitttlng a con
stitutional amendment that would make
all securities Issued after its ratifica
tion taxable, but as the acceptance of
any such measure by 36 state* Is ex
tremely improbable, the effect upon the
bond market was short-lived.
Foreign Bonds Beaker.
Foreign bonds have been weaker, re
flecting the unscttlement in Europe, and
the French dollar bonds in particular sold
at the lowest price thus far recorded.
French, Belgian and German exchange
and currencies have likewise declined a*
might have been expected, but the fluc
tuations of the mark, which la quoted
at ahout 4 cents a thousand, have
ceased to have any significance.
The latest report of the Relchsbank
shows that there are over fourteen hun
dred billion marks outstanding and it 1*
folly to expect that such an ocean of
paper currency can never be stabilized or
controlled.
For this, that or the other reason most
cbmmodity markets are higher. Rubber
touched 38 cents but has reacted slightly
upon the expectation that under the
British scheme of price control a larger
supply would be made available at the
advance. Coffee has advanced as it is
coming to be believed that the Brazilsn
government has sold more than half its
holdings. Copper is again at 14**c. Tin
has had a sensational advance. Paper
and wood pulp are higher because there
is a strike in the Swedish pulp mills.
From force of habit cotton has again
advanced. Wool Is higher and so are
woolen goods. The steel industry is active j
and higher prices for prompt delivery are
bid In an attempt to stimulate production,
which is restricted by the scarcity of la
bor. Lumber Is in good demand at full
prices for the same reason. Rut it is
hardly necessary to continue the recital.
It is monotonously uniform.
Statement Shows (iaiiiN.
The weekly statement of the Federal
Reserve system shows a gain of $3,000,000
in the gold held and a fractional ad
\anco in the reserve ratio, which now
stand* at 76.4 per cent. The changes
i otherwise are not important.
A continuance of easy money 1* indi
cated and a reduction in the rediscount
rate is talked of.
Tho announcement that the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers has bought a
substantial interest in the Empire Trust
company of New York and is contemplat
ing the establishment of its own bank
in the city is an Important sign of (he
times. This brotherhood ntraadv owns
* a bank in Cleveland that has over $13,
uon.noo in deposit*.
j It' may be and it si to be hoped that
j we nre approaching an economic nit I -
' lenium in which th« gulf between labor
I and capital will disappear because all
I those who labor have become capitalists.

Financial
New York, Jan. 18.—During the
greater part of last week it was
nocessary to draw a rather sharp
distinction between the attitude of
the stock markets and the action of
foreign exchange. If someone, seek
ing for financial judgment on the
very obscure European situation, had
happened to observe the stock market
but had known nothing of foreign ex
change rates, he would undoubtedly
have concluded (hat financial judg
tnent was wholly incredulous over the
prediction of disastrous results from
the Franco-German deadlock. If he
had watched the foreign exchanges
while in ignorance of the stock mar
ket movement, his conclusion would
probably have been that the financial
mind was deeply apprehensive, but
also occasionally much perplexed as
to what the real situation was.
The seeming composure of the
stock exchanges, both of Europe and
America—at any rate the absence of
any sign of acute misgiving—was ex
plained by many people on the theory
that a highly favorable economic sit
uation exactly counterbalanced, in its
effect on financial sentiment, the po
litical misgivings.
Explanation Hardly Plausible.
Put in another way, the supposition ***
that. but for the Ruhr episode, all the
world's stork markets would have been
rising rapidly, hut that fear of disastrous
consequences on the continent had kept
prices from moving at all.1
The explanation is plausible up to a
certain point, but it would hardly pasa
muster if it were assumed that financial
opinion, as reflected on the stock ex
changes. was taking seriously either the
rumors of a German military demonstra
tion against France, or Lloyd Georges
talk in his syndicate articles about a re
sultant situation "the most sinister that
has been witnessed for many centuries in
Europe."
If either the London Stock Exchange or
the New York Stock Exchange had ac
cepted such a prediction, with its corol
lary that what was about to happen would
he more disastrous than what followed
July, 1914, or in July, 1789. the best
Imaginable outlook for trading and In
dustry could not have averted a formid
able collapse of prices. Indeed, the fi
nancial and Industrial outlook would It
self have been reversed as abruptly as It
was in the summer of 1914.
Peculiar Situation.
The absence during the past week of
any apparent effect on the stock markets
by the Franco-German imbroglio, leaves
a somewhat peculiar situation. Tt may
foreshadow a period of prolonged inac
tivity on such markets, either until the
dispute has been terminated or else until
such further developments for good or
had should have occurred in the Ruhr it
self ns would necessarily change the fi
nancial attitude.
The attitude of our stock market last
August, during the three or four weeks
when no one ventured to predict the up
shot of the coal and railway strikes, was
much like that: the stocks markets did
not decline, but they virtually marked
time until the negotiations for a settle
ment were actually in sight. Allowance
must be made In that comparison, how
ever, for the fact that the markets of the
strike crisis were midsummer arkets, nor
mally inactive.
May Ignore Situation.
Tt is possible in the preaent case, in de
fnult of any sudden and definite change
in the continental situation, that the stock
markets in this country at any rate, will
come to the point where the "European
crisis" will be fintlv ignored, with prices
moving in line with whatever conditions
are developing in homo finance and In
dustry. There was an undoubted tendency
towards such an attitude last week.
Wall Street, which had been talking of
nothing but France and Germany since
the beginning of January, evidently turn
ed its attention to the American situation.
It found that situation unquestionably
strong, with railway traffic measured W
loadings breaking all records for the period,
with exchange of bark checks In the
United States 11 to 17 per cent above Iasi
year, with mereant5!e trade maintaining
a volume very exceptional for midwinter,
and with steel production, the familiar
"barometer of Industry," going on at a
pace 10 to 16 jer c«nt greater even than
in November and 20 per cent greater than
what was predicted *n the early autumn
as the season’s probable maximum.
With this background, it is not Impos
I rlbl# that the home market* will drib
{ into a movement tn watch the European
j deadlock will virtually be ignored.
