Financial
By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
New York. May IS. Financially,
as well as politically, last week's ac
ceptance of the allies' terms by the
German government is recognized
without dispute as an event of vital
importance. It is so, not only be
cause of the bearing of the prospec
tive German payments on the eco
nomic situation of western Europe,
but because that submission was the
only alternative to a further advance
of the French army into Germany,
with the resultant political complica
tions and burdens of public expendi
ture. Yet the stock exchanges re
ceived last Wednesday's announce
ment with declining prices.
The familiar Wall street theory of
a "discounted event" of "realizing on
good news" by speculators who had
bought stocks in anticipation of it,
was well enough up to a certain
point. But the stock markets of last
week were 'not at the top of a long
advance; the recovery during the
three or four weeks before the Ger
man news arrived had carried prices
only slightly above the low point of
almost a year.'s decline.
Oermany But One Angle.
Furthermore, if the stock exchange dis
missed tlft German submission with in.
difference, why should not foreign ex
change rates which unlike the price of
stocks, were already at the high point
of a five months' continuous advance, but
which rose much further after Germany's
acceptance have acted similarly?
One answer Is that the German nego
tiations were only one of the points of
doubt on which .our stock market's Judg
ment or tne financial situation had de
pended. The recent recover- In financial
markets, the cautious, but evident revival
of financial hopefulness, was based not
only and perhaps not primarily, on
German settlement It had in view the
possibility of easier money, and the pos
sibility of revision in railway wages to a
scale which would leave the companies;
a living income. Tne attitude of the mar.
kets had been governed by the lowering
of- central bank rate and by belief that
the arguments before railway labor board
were such as to make a lowering of the
wage scale probable.
Nevertheless, the genera! money market
had not declined along with the federal
reserve rates and no one could be abso
lutely sure whether the labor board would
grant the railway management's petition,
deny It or resort to compromise.
As yet the most that can ha U1 of
these considerations Is that the continued
rise in our banklnv rpsiirv tf nM tn
the highest figure ever known, combined
witn reduction or 40. per cent m federal
reserve rediscounts from their recent max
imum nod of 18 per cent in note circu
lation, points In the- light ef all, expe
rience, to eventual easing of the credit
situation, and the chances at any rate,
favor relief by the railway board. Mean
time, the economic significance of the
past week's actual event calls for con
sideration. Entering New Area,
Supposing Germany to have accepted
tl.u tirma In entire good faith, thou we
are entering n wholly no?l phasd of the
afterwar economic situation. Actual
transfer of 1,000,000,000 marks In gold, or
paper redemablo in gold, from one coun
try to another in the next two weeks,
is a formidable operation; not larger as
a whole, however, than the $300,000,000
gold sent to the United States from 20
or 25 different foreign countries sine
the beginning of 1821, but more striking
because in Germany's case it represents
actual movement of German capital into
two or three other markets.
When delivery of the 132,000.000.000
marks of German bonds, less deductions
tor aliened property begins with the de
livery of 12,000,000,000, next July, the
problem will be far more complex.
Whether Germany were herself to raise
money on her bonds and sign over the
proceeds to the allied states, or were to
deliver the bonds and leave France or
Belgium to use them for raising money
in still other mark-its, In either rase,
a wholly unprecedented shifting of capi
tal from nation1 to nation would accom
pany anything like (he successful opera
tion of the plan.

London Making
Bid to Regain
Trade Prestige
Australian Firm's Preference
For Drafts on English Me
tropolis Example of Ten
dency in Many Nations.
By HOLLAND.
An American importer having oc
casion to buy Australian commodi
ties in considerable amount sought
recently to obtain the necessary bank
ing facilities with which to pay for
these commodities. . He carried a
considerable balance in . one of the
New York City banks. He asked for
certain credit facilities not exceeding
in amount what his btlance would
justify. He found that the bankers
were willing to give him these facili
ties, but when he said that he wanted
London drafts running four months
with which to make payments, the
bankers declined to grant his request.
He said, however, that unless he ob
tained drafts on London he could
not buy the goods in Australia. In
that country they insisted upon Lon
don drafts, not looking with any
favor upon drafts upon New York.
He was told by the bankers that
if that was the case it would be the
better part for him to . concel his
Australian order. ' There . was no
good reason why drafts on New York
should not be as acceptable as drafts
upon London, or why London in
stead of New York should receive
the commission for transactions of
this character. As it was necessary
for him to obtain these commodities,
he at last accepted New York
drafts and these were not declined by
Australia when it was learned there
that these drafts must be accepted
or else Australia would lose the sale.
London Seeks metige.

What Jap as Doing.
A few months ago Japan, or a group of
her representative men, oepoancu . -New
York bank $50,000 In gold. This was
done with the undersfanding that upon
this balance Japan could rely tor an ex
tension of credit facilities aggregating
$500.00. Her reliance was justified. The .
balance stands untouched, but credits
were granted In the nature of so-called
revolving credits were granted to Japan
and in this way ahe has been and con
tinues to be able to pay for her lare
purchases of American commodities.
Already some of our ablest bankers are
beginning to wonder whether if we blindly
and timidly follow the methods which
having been pursued for more than 100
years, have made Great Britain pre-eminent,
we will not be compelled alway to
follow. On the other hand, if we etrlke
along new lines, remembering that we are
now the world's master as a creditor
nation and bearing in mind the fact that
our resources, developed and undeveloped,
are far In excess of the resources of any
other country, our ablest men may be able
to blaze a new path over which Great
Britain cannot pass.

the Husptcian is beginning to change Into
belief that no small part of the enormous
contributions in gold from other coun

Britain either directly or indirectly.
Probably every one of the abler dealers

whether this gold Is or is not sent hers

their perplexity. But they do seem to
be entertaining the suspicion that tucse
unprecedented receipts of gold really re
flect the purpose of the astute financiers
and bankers of London to establish here
a gold basis upon which reliance can be
placed ror a large expansion or cream.
If that be the purpose it also m-Jans in

Great Britain.

very beneficial over most of the winter

In the Kansas City district, which got
from two to six inches of rain on May 8

done. All the southern stales except Soush
