j as to the effect, for better or worse,
wiiicn tne London contcrence ana
the presidential inauguration would
have on the financial situation. There
were perhaps no ring of conviction
in the discussion of those coming
events, but the financial community
Hcver gives in hope that some ex
pected event i little way ahead will
i chailKC the drift of things OR the
unpleasant, and it will appeal most
strogly to all when the markets
themselves (uive fallen into a state
of perplexity and bewilderment.
Such a situation evidently existed;
the reparations conference convened
and the chanjte of administration oc
ancial attitude which governs them
anciul attitude which goperns them
was exactly the same at the end of
the week as at the beginning.
No New Developments.
The course of the week's markets, boih
at homo and abroad not so much the
character of their movement as the lack
of any definite movement whatever was
?uch as might have indicated etther the
tolal It-responsiveness of financial senti
ment to large political developments, or
lis iudgmyrft that the occurrences of the
week hayf in no respect changed the

By HOLLAND.
Germany's indemnity or repara
tion and 'the determination of it are
regarded here as the dominant prob
lem of the day. For while the Unit
ed States is not to share in any pay
ment (icrniany may make, neverthe
less the reparation exacted from .,
her may play an important although
indirect part in our own interna
tional financial relations. Some
think that it may seriously affect,
if it be not a reasonable repara
tion, our foreign trade. It may in
terfere with the payment of the debt
which the allies owe to the United
States and to one another.
Tn the autumn of last year, A. C. Bed
ford, who is chairman of the board of
the Standard till company of New Jertey.
spent several weeks In Paris, lie went
there rhlefly as the representative -ef the
United State Chamber of Commerce In
Parts was to be held a meeting of various
chamber! of commerce of the world-Mr.
Bedford had opportunity at that time to
meet and spend an afternoon with the
prime minister of France. He was aston
ished at the frakness with which the
prime minister of France spoke of the
French point of view and especially of
(he relation of France to Germany. Mr.
Bedford asked him why Franco was main
taining a standing army of 750.000 men
although the need was great for workers
in the Industries, in the transportation
systems, and the agriculture of France.
The prime minister replied frankly saying
that until the German reparation was
satisfactorily determined the necesnlty for
maintaining a great standing army was
paramount.
The Indirect Result.
The possibility of action of this kind by
I ranee appears to give serious concern to
leaders 1 it the financial district and to In
fluential men of finance and of commerce
throughout the United States. The indirect
results following action of this kind by
France are something which no states
man Is able to forecast. They certainly
would be of Influence in the United States
nnd probably not of beneficial inf luenee--
The valley or, the Rhine would again W
almost In a state of war. The resentments
which' would be kindled In Germany would
not pass away after the lapse of time, but
would remain, as did the resentment in
France after Bismarck, in the name of
Germany exacted Alsace and Lorraine as
a part of the reparation France was to
I make to Germany after the armies of
Na'ioleon had been defeated.
No one of any authority talks of the
I cancellation of the debta whlcl? the allies
owe to the United States. It Is true that
Mr. Denby. who Is to be a member of
President Harding's cabinet, is quoted as
having spoken earnestly in favor of the
cancelation of this debt. Butj the reasons
which l-.e gives are general as were the
reasons for action of this kind which were ,
given George W. "Wlckersham and two or
three others. The view commonly held
Ts that nubile opinion In the United States
will not tolerate any proposition which in
volves the cancelation of the debts. Public
opinion would, however, approve the grant
ing of sufficient time for the payment of
this debt.
But this question of reparation is spok
en of here as a very serious one. It con
cerns many of those who are influential
both In international and domestic finance.
It is spoken of with apprehension by some
who control large industries. The hope i
strong that some way will he foundout of
what avp'ars to be ap impasse, yet the
apprehension that serious trouble is pend
ing aeoms tn be stronger than the hope that
the difficulties will be surmounted.
From Washington to Boston.
Should David Franklin Houston who
was Jhe third in President Wilson ad
ministration to serve as secretary the
treasury, receive and accept an 'invita
tion to take up new service of a financial
character in Boston he would not' be
unfamiliar with Boston and its vicinity
For although he has been for years a
distinguished citizen of the south, he was
for three years a student of political
science at Harvard university. Upon
that suMect he Is regarded as a high
authorltf.
Ono of the larger trust Institutions of
Boston Is. according to report, contem
plating the association of T)r. Houston
with it in important executive capacity.
The invitation may have been already
extended to him. Should he he chosen
for this important financial position in
Boston and accept the offer, we shall
against have an illustration of the fact
that the United States Treasury depart
ment is a graduating university from
which Its chief officers have gone to
imnnrtant eTfprnfive nn.t. in hnriUq snd
j trust institutions. gome of them have
come to Wall Street, some went to Chi
cago. Almost all of the comptrollers
of the currency wero graduated, so to
! treasury to enter Immediately upon high
I executive positions of a financial char
I r.cter.
Dr. Houston s dire-'tion of tiie Treasury
depcrtment to which he was summoned
hy President Wilson as the successor of
Mr. Glass who had been ohxen senator
from Virginia, hus commanded on the
whole genetal approval. In view of th
fact that ho. stepped from the depart
ment of agriculture to a new service with
w-hlch he had not been escpecially famil
iar and that he speedily revaled himself
as having excellent command of his
I difficult responsibilities In that depart
ment were undoubtedly chief among th
reasons which have caused the trust in
stinition of Boston to cotemplate in
vitig him to accept an important execu
tive position in that institulon.
