Hogs The week Is closing with a small
Saturday run of hogs, only 31 loads, or
3,000 head, showing up. These sold
mostly to Bhippora at price not far from
a quarter higher. Packers made no pre
tense of putting up killing drove and it
was a typical shipper market throughout.
Best light hoga sold up to 310.26. the
day' top, and most of the aupply moved
at a scattered spread of about 19.36 to
310.00. Although the marketing of hogs
has been, on a moderate seal this week,
the trade has been adversely Influenced
by the closure of small independent pack
ing plants at Chicago and the possibil
ity of a labor strike in th larger pack
ing plants. Compared with a week ago,
today's hog prlcea ar about 10Q1S cants
Under those paid a week ago.

By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Uro Leased Wire.
New York, March 20. The con
fusion in last week's movement of
prices on the stock exchange, the
frequent seeming reversal of attitude
and sentiment, nrobably reflected the
whole communiiys frame of mind
more accurately than anything rise
could have done. In Wall Street
there will always be stretches of time
in which the attention of financiers
and business men is directed to sonM
particular branch of the markets or
sonic special phase of the situation,
and in which the stock market
merely registers the inferences of lhe
real i'nvestiug community regarding
occurrences in such riuarters.
Last November, for instance,
everyone was watching the fall in
prices of ' commodities. In Decem
ber, little was talked about on Wall
Street except the forced selling by
companies or individuals of their
holdings of securities and merchan
dise, in order to meet pressing ma
turities of credits, a condition of
things greatly emphasized by "sac
rifice sales" to raise money for the
fourth income tax installment or tp
"establish losses" for the 1921 dec
laration. Recovery in Exchange.
In January and February the course of
the money market and of the markot for
new securities divided attention with tha
rauld recovery In foreign exchange ratea.
During all of those month up to a very
few week ago, prices on tha stock ax
ohango moved down or up, according to
the Inference which tho whole body of
the Investors were druwliig from what oc
curred in such other markets, and th!
stock market was In itself, only a secon
dary matter of Interest
At lhe present time, nobody can mis
take the fact that the community' atten
tion l converged, not on the movement of
these other markets, hut on the movement
of tho stock market itself. This is not,
apparently, because of tho belief that tho
outside investing and business public la
active In tha market that Is admittedly
not the case but because the existing be
wilderment a.nd confusion of mint! regard
ing the whole financial outlook is so com
plete that the experiments of professional
speculators in testing the character of tho
situation and tha attitude of outside in
vestor came to bo the only possible indi
cation of what the situation was. Tho
atock market Itself, however, has hardly
helped towards enlightenment; last week
particularly its alternation of recoveries
and declines, its absolute irregularity,
served no purpose unless to reflect the un
certainty and momentary fluctuation of
feeling in the financial circles.
Much Uncertainty.
It 1 doubtful whether that uncertainty
has evor been greater in our time The
period of depression after a great finan
cial reaction has always created at some
stege of its continuance, a feeling of doubt
and pessimism, but on those earlier occa
sions In 1908, for- Instance, or in 1894
and 1896 it wa at leaat possible to
see what waa necessary to pull finance
and industry out ok its slump of .despond
ency. Tha main question then was wheth
er and when those influences would op
erate which mada possible such Wall
street incidents of the late 90's, as tho
sale of Union Pacific shares on the stock
exchanga at 4o on the dollar, 10 yeara
before the same company was spending
$130,900,000 from it own resources to buy
up other railways, or th salo of North
ern Faelftff stock at 16e per share, exactly
five years before it eold at $1,000 per
aharn in tho corner of 1901.
But even then t was recognized that
If,- with a bumper harvest, our export
trade nd tho foreign purchase of Ameri
can securities should increase on such a
scale That we could cancel our floating
indobtednesa to Europe and import gold
enough to restore our banking and cur
rency reserves, then a great financial re
covery would be in order. Such a re
covery occurred.
At the present moment, however, tho
problem Is not our debt to Europe, but
Europe's debt to us; not whether w can
achieve pn "export surplus," because the
existing trarto balance in our favor is
Itself a troublesome problem; not our im
ports of gold, for we are now Importing

Extended Slump
Out of Question,
Says Executive
Reports Indicate Number of
Unemployed Will Be Rc
dueed Conditions Not
So Unfavorable.
By HOLLAND.
J;t mt-s. A. Farrcjl, president of th
United States Steel corporation never
has wavered in his conviction that
permanent depression in industry and
in business in the, United States is
inconceivable. During the somewhat
dark days of hist autumn Mr. Far
rell, looking ahead, ventured the
prediction that in the spring visible
evidences of improvement would be
furnished, lie was anxious to hold
our foreign trade and to increase it,
saying that about 20 per cent of the
products of our industries constitute
a surplus after our domestic markets
have been supplied, lie believed that
it would be possible to market this
surplus elsewhere than in the United
States and this of itself would stabil
ize our industries.
Although ho authoritative report of the
conversation which Mr. Farnll recently
hail with President Harding has linen mnde
public, apparently the president Intimated
that ho had been assured by Mr. Farrell
and also by oilier leaders In Industry and
huHlncs that no longer does real depres
sion prevail. A change haf come, al
though there wa at no time so aerloux
depression as some of those who wcr de
spondent asserted.
Increase In Activity.
Tnrrnnvlng activity will he a feature of
the spring's Industrial life and the number
of unemployed will he steadily reduced.
Reports como from Washington that in the
spring month an Improvement slow but
certain Is sure and that we may look with
confidence to a considerable revival of
healthful In.lustrlnl activity.
Iteports of this kind which were brought
to the ears of President Harding a few
days ago are In line with statements which
were made last fall by some of tha ablest
men In Americsn Industrial and financial
life. They were certain that by mid sprlnir
of 1921 Improvement would be reported.
They hnd been studying fundamontnl con
rtltlons both in (ho United States and In
Kunipe. They were especially Impressed
by the revelation of the magnitude of out
natural resources. They heeded the state
ment made by the late Theodore M. Vail,
who said a year before his death, thar
splendid as have been the achievements of
those who have brought great wealth from
our natural resources, yet after nil these
abundant resources have been only p.ir
tlally devoloped nnd some n. them not yei.
touched by capital or Industry.
Why They Were Confident.
Opinions of this kind were reported In
this column from time to tlmo in the late
fall nnd early winter. Now President
Harding Is assured by leaders in the busi
ness world that tho Improvement Is reallv
under way nnd that It will he continued
provided only the administration and the
legislators at Washington act with such
wisdom eg to Justify the expansion of in
dustry, foreign trade and business.
In the Civil war daya. when depression
prevailed everywhere n th north mid
when the secretary of the treasury, Gov
ernor Chase, was meeting with difficulty
or duubt in Loudon and in Amsterdam,
where he hoped to market largo Issuer
of government bonds, David A. Wella
published bocd which contained the re
sult of hla Investigation Into tho natural
resources of the United States. This
showed that these resources were of auoh
magnitude rnd wealth-producing capacity
that the war could he maintained at the
heavy yearly coat when entailed for at
least 10 year without causing serious
embarrassment. When London and Am
sterdam read Mr. Wells' book they changed
their altitude, willingly accepting the if
fenngsf American bonds because they
were assured that the resources of the
United States provide) a sufficient guar
antee for payment of principal and in
terest. ,npw eur resources can he
ap highly developed as to make It certain
that the United State will he b1e to
master completely the idlfficultles which
the war and the troubled condition in
Europe have created.
Variety of Opinions.
Too much strc. ft Is said here should
not be placed upon opinions which do
not carry the note of encouragement They
are usually based upon Incidental or mo
mentary conditions, not reaching to th
conditions which are fundamental.

Parents' Problems
How can a little girl of f he
helped to overcome her fear of
strangers?
If the straliger to the child is
some one well known to yourseh",
mention this to the little girl; say,
"Mother would like her friend tb
know her little daughter." Explain
to the child," when alone with her
again, that strangers are like other
people. except for the fact that we
do not yet know them!
Where It Started
Infantry Drill.
The idea of using drill to move the
bodies of men about, originated with
the famous Greek and Roman for
mationsthe Phalanx -'and the Le
gion. After the introduction
firearms, individual drill became
essary. Frederick .the Great '
J'rU'vMa started the soldier ami squad
drill, ori'Kinating-Hiatiy of the move
ments that are part "of the pres-nt
manual of arms.
