By HOLLAND.
As governor of the war credits
board at Washington who received
..the distinguished service medal as a
pute to the manner in which he
Cjirected the policy of the board dur
ing the war, Colonel M. W Thomp
son's plan for reconstructing the pub
lic finance is ure to receive the at
tention of those in the administra-
. tion at Washington who are now in
tensely occupied with the attempt to
handle the vital financial matters
which must be satisfactorily disposed
of before normal conditions return.
Colonel Thompson has outlined a
plan by which the market value of
Liberty bonds may be so stabilized
as to restore the original subscription
price. And if this be done it will
go far, in his opinion, towards the
adequate reconstruction of the pub
lic financies. Before setting1 forth
briefly the principal features of his
' plan it may be worth while to report
what the number of separate pieces
of Liberty bonds and Victory notes
now in oossession of the public is.
These figures will be sufficient to
make it clear that every holder of
these government obligations who in
number cover the entire United
States will be sure to be greatly m
' terested in his plan. They will also
learn with gratification that the plan
has been critically examined by men
competent to pass judgment upon it
and without exception is approved by
them.
In by PoWlc.
A. tT ito id. 000. 000 separate pieces ot
Liberty bonds nd Victory notes represent.
d the loan mad by th public to the
government during the days of the war.
Fifty-four millions ot tbeao separate pieces
ware made up ot Victory notes and liberty
honrts whose fsce value was either Ion
or MOO. That Is more than per cent
of the entire amount. There were 3,500.000
Liberty bonds and Victory notes ft the
face value of $300. Therefore but IS pr
-nt of thetntlre Issues were In demonina
Tions of Jl.OOO or more. In other words
those who are sometimes vailed the plain
people took the bonds.
Sola at
These statistics, brief as they are, are
sufficient to thow that nearly 0 per cent
of the many millions of the public who
bought these i;otes and bonds, made a
rlftces in order to aid the government in
this way. Many of them borrowed money
of the banks depositing- the bonds for
security. Many went Into their savings
and took from thein a sufficient amount
to buy the bonds. The best estimate Is
that 1S.000.000 of the people were holdars
of Danaa vi innso biiiu.i ucuviiuuaiiuuo.
Behind these bonds stand the credit and
tho good faith of the government Itself
and yet they have fallen below par and
If the holders of them were forced to sell
they would meet with loss. In fact many
have sold and In that way lost. These
obligations of the government have been
utilized for speculative purposes. The es
timate Is that 73 per cent of the total
bond dealings In New York Stock ax
change In were Liberty bond trans
actions. Pricea varted some of them be
ing as much as 111 per hundred below
parrf
The Thompson IMaa. .
Colonel Thompson states that there- are
now outstanding approximately $20,000,
A00.000 of IUerty bonds and Victory notes,
reckoning the amount at par. But on ac
count of the depreciation In the market
value of these bonds they today could bo
marketed tor not much more than $11,000,
000.000. The refinancing ajid consolidation of the
public debt, a subject to which the admin
istration is giving cartful consideration
cannot be accomplished unless these Lib
erty bonds and Victory notes are re-established
at par. This readjustment can be
accomplished, in Colonel Thompson's opin
ion. It congress authorizes the Issue of a
new series of United States consolidated
bonds the aggregate of which would be
$45,000,00(1.000. The life of these bonds
should not-, be less than 20 years and
probably St or even $0 years would be
better. The government would offer to
the public who are now the owners of
Liberty bonds and Victory notes to ex
change these bonds and notes for the now
consolidated bonds.
Maintained at Far. .
All whe have critically examined this
Plan are of the opinion that these new
bends Into which-the Victory notes and
Liberty bonds may be exchanged will
urely be maintained at par. Then they
will be In the possession of what is
sometimes called the great middle class
In the United States, the farmers, the
Physicians, the grocers, the teachers and
those who receive small salaries. They
will become, In numbers at least and In
Importance, aa a group the greatest In
i vestora in the Vnlted States. Thia mid
dle class group, so to call it as a whole,
possesses the greatest earning and sav
ing placed In great measure ' for the
funds which are necessary If our natural
resources, are to be so developed aa to
result In a very great increase In eur
national wealth. For upon that increase
In our national wealth la to be found the
baris for our future prosperity.
Foe and One-Third Billions.
Before the end of the present congress
Victory notes, the aggregate of which is
t4,SS3,00t will' fall due. The government
must be prepared to moot- the day ot
payment As it will be impracticable, al
most Impossible tor tire government to
redeem these notes because it would
require more than $4,000,000,000 to do
that. It is Inevitable that in some way
the notes be provided for. They must
be either funded Into a long-time bond
or they may be exchanged for new con
solidated bonds, provided that congress
authorises an issue of that kind. The
presumption la that the recent visit of
.r. P. Morgan to Washington was occa
sioned by the desire of the administra
tion to obtain authoritative information
respecting our finances, and perhaps sug
gestions as to the best method of deal
ing with the finances, including the debt
of $lt.000.000,00( which our allies owe to
the United States. For the president him
self and his advisers and the leaders in
congress realize that these matters must
be satisfactorily adjusted ' before there
can be permanent restoration to normal
conditions. Adjustment must Include the
handling ot the Liberty bonds and Vic
tory notes and there is probably not one
of the 10.00. 00 of eur eittsens who put
some part of his or her earnings or sav
'lngs into these Liberty bonds or Victory
note whe will not be rejoiced to learn
that the government is taking such action
to stabilise ttese notes so that whether
they are funded or whether they are
exchanged for an issue of consolidated
bonds, they will be handled exactly ai
they were when they were Issued, namely,
by recognizing tire fact that the public

Pun's Trade Review.
New York, April IJ. Dun's tomorrow
will say:
"After long continued liquidation, more
stability has developed In some markets,
with a definite train in business. Comple
. tlon ot the readjustment is aot general,
but basic conditions are gradually
' strengthening. A tendency toward easing
et the monetary stringency, partly re-
fleeted in some lowering of discount rates,
is a favorable augury and freer marketing
of grain is making for a lessening ot the
: financial tension in country districts. Re
cent sudden changes la temperature have
been detrimental alike to crop advance
ment and seasonal increase in retail dis
tribution, yet weather influences are sec
ondary to some other factors in the pres
ent sitnation, questions et prices and
wages being uppermost."

I bice- Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Chicago, April 22. Grain markets
displayed the best tone of any time
within more than two weeks. The
speculative atmosphere has steadily
cleared and the markets as well as
the traders, were in better shape
to respond to constructive influences.
Export business in wheat, corn and
rye was on and with cash offerings
light and premiums .for wheat and
rye advanced, the despondency ap
peared to have left the trade for
the present at least. There is a be
lief that all depressing influences
have been discounted for the pres
ent and with the longs well liqui
dated on the recent break, the shorts
(are now taking- their turn.
Closing traders were well towards
the best of the day ana so tar mis
week with net gains on wheat of
1 l-4c to o l-4c. May leading; corn
was 1 1-81 7-8c, oats l-8l-2c and
rye 1 3-43 l-2c.
, Wheat Premium Advance.
There is no cash wheat pressing on the
market and premiums nave aavanceu o
to 6o of late. Millers here and in the
southwest and northwest are taking wheat
more freely. Exporters are in the market
for winters at tho gulf end for Manitobas
at the Atlantic ports. Numerou bids
were in the market from exporters with
limit. tnr low. owms to tne aavances.
Seaboard exporter bought futures her
freely and late in the day a report went
the rounds that Russia bad bought wheat
in this country, out mis was uemra mint.
The two factor aside from the export
business and scarcity of cash wheat which
influenced operations, was the break of
nearly le In Winnipeg early with an ad
vance of 7 lie later. The other was the
Kansas crop report with Its condition of
56.8 against 87.8 last month and 78.4 last
year. The acreage was given as 9,233,768
acres with an estimated crop of 135,000,000
tmhMi comnared with 187.000.060 har
vested last year. Tradera sold on it tor.
a time and made a small Dreat, out tne
late advance in Winnipeg and the export
business brought a wave ot buylpg and an
advance. .
, Trader' Cover.
Buying of May corn by cash houses of
late absorbed the offerings of local traders
and caused them to cover on an advancing
market. It is said that hedges on around
6,000,00ft bushels have been taken against
cash sale within a week. Country offer
ings were light and arrivals 138 cars. Ex
port sales were 400,600 bushel and do
domestlc sales 134,606 bushels, with char
ters for nearly 1,000,006 bushels.
Oats failed to show as much gimp as
other grains, as the local shorts bad re
duced their lines acd there was little out
side buying. May advanced c to 38&c
and closed there. Crop news was less
favorable and cash trade better.
Bhortys In May rye are in bad, as offer
ings are light and they had to bid up to
get in, prices .lumping 3 to So. Export
sales were 50,000 bushels at the seaboard.
July was taken by shorts.
Pit Notes.
With an improvement in the tone of all
the grain markets, especially in wheat
and corn, and with no pressure of cash
grain and an urgent demand, the ex
pression is frequently heard that the mar
kets have been liquidated on the recent
decline by the longs and now the shorts
are taking their turn. The latter are
the best kind of buyers when scared. Dif
ficulty In buying cash -Wheat at advanced
premiums, combined with a renewed for
eign demand by Germany and Belgium,
and the Greek order ot 1,300,000 bushels
which Is about ready to be placed, created
a better feeling.
Receipts of wheat at Minneapolis wer
282 cars. Winnipeg receipts 86 cars.
F. H. Babcock says: "Winter wheat
has experienced three period of freezing
temperature which, have anquestionally de
layed the growth and probably weakened
the vitality of the root. Some claims
of damage are being received and more
will follow." v
, While the tone of the grain market
was not aa bouvant as of late, the ability
of the market to obtain support when
needed and the fact that the orices are
stubbornly maintaining advances is bring
ing many converts to the bull side.
Skepticism Is being overcome by reallzia
tlon that It 1 not a "flash in top. pan"
bull market The fact that high premi
ums prevail for contract grades of canh
wheat In all markets makes the outlook
for the May shorts look as gloomy as

ByALEXANDER DANA NOYES
Chleag Tribune-Omaha Be leased Wire.
New York, April 22. Without any
visible cause in the day's financial
Lnews, vigorous and general recovery
occurred on ine siock cxtnangc to
day. Advances ranging from 1 to 5
points were numerous and what to
Wall Street is always more sig
nificant when the movement of prices
Sets in one direction, the day's trans
actions- went beyond 1,000,000 shares
for the first time since March 23. To
day's was, in fact, only the second
"million share market" of the pres
ent year and it will not be over
looked that on both occasions the
greatly increased business was ac
companied by general advance in
prices.
The markets of these times were
the kind which have to be explained
by something in the occurrences oi
the day outside of Wall Street. It
might be reasonable to connect to
day's movement with Germany's ap
plication to the United States to set
tle the reparation deadlock.
German Situation Key.
As It. happens, the American financial
markets of 11 have given little evidence
of being Influenced at all by a good or
bad turn In the European political situa
tion. They did not advance on the sum
moning of the London conference: they
did not decline on the failure of the
negotiations and the preparation of the
allies for a further advance into Germany.
Tet, nothing has been more certain all
albng. than that the outcome of that
controversy would necessarily be the key
to a good part of ths financial situation
also. If this Is recognlied, then the pe
tition of Germany to the UnMed State
government with a promise to abide by
our decision was an event of which even
the stock exchange would be bound to
take notice.
Tbe day's atock market may or may
not have knowingly taken account of
Germany' action. What was more evi
dent was tbe extended condition of the
speculative commitments for the decline.
In the industrial shares, especially, it
has long been evident that th position
ot the "bear account" was such that a
really important announcement of good
news was bound to affect prices instantly
and strongly. As a rule the railroad
shares were slow in following today'
movement of recovery.
Call Money Drops.
Call money rates on the stock exchange
slipped back to 6 per cent again. The
foreign exchange market did not share
in th stock market' upward movement;
it was quiet and more or less irregular
all day. German exchange, however,
which fell from 1.63o per mark to 1.39c
on -Thursday, recovered today to 1.63c
Th week statement by the Uerman Reichs
bank reports reduction of nearly 600,000,
000 mark in the paper currency, bring
ing it down below the end of December
total. In the corresponding Interval a
year ago. outstanding notes were increased
20,080,000.800 marks.
Week-end reports of the mercantile
agencies are, on the whole, more eheerful.
Increasing tendency to oteadlnesw In prices
with better bualness In varioul market
as a consequence, is recognized by aU
ot them. '
