New York, July 17. Events of the past week have been of an interna tional rather than a domestic charac ter, and have borne special reference to Germany, but with the portent not altogether sharply defined. In the foreign exchange market the hand of Germany has been clearly shown in recent transactions; in our own wheat market the influence of prospective purchasers for the ac count of Germany has caused a sharp advance in prices. - Cotton has been under a similar stimulus not alone because Germany may become a purchaser, but because England is already in the market for raw ma terials with which to supply her re viving textile industry. Further more, Germany has already taken some substantial amounts of copper and more may go to that country in future weeks. At the root of it all lies the fact that Germany has unexpectedly been able to either arrange credits or provide the basis for credit exten sion in the nftr future with which to pay part of her reparations debt fall ing due next month ?nd with which also to make much-needed purchases of commodities. Loan Made In Holland. One loan has already been mads in Hel- land and American bankers are planning with those ot England to supply a grain credit. This may be the first step toward the culmination of Germany's en deavor to arrange a loan In this country. At the moment a loan Is probably out of the question for the reason that pre judice against such a course would prob ably be of such wide proportions aa to presage lallure, but ultimately tho sit uation may change. Sentiment has been undergoing a change abroad where It is realized that to provide ths basis for Germany meeting her debts to the allies there must be a free opportunity to ob tain raw materials so that she may pay in goods and service. The course of ths foreign exchange market recently has indicated a gather ing up of Germany's credits wherever they may be and the transfer of balances Into those monies with which the next reparations payment is to be made. In dications at ths moment point to the pos sibility ot a large portion of ths Indebt edness due la August being paid In dol lars. . Sterling, francs and other continen tal rates have been steadily receding of late, while marks have been firm, a happening quite tha reverse of what might have been expected a few weeks ago. Apparently npw a greater degree of commercial activity may be expected In Germany and should this come to pass It would clear up not only many of the difficulties -which beset Germany, but would remove one , of the troublesome factors In the realm of worM finanrA and tend toward a settlement of International affairs as related to central Europe. . Improvement in Prospect. So far as this country is concerned, the ravoraoie factors of the week were not sharply defined. The recovery of business Is still something to be developed in the future. While conservatism rules, there Is nevertheless evidence of hopefulness that the fall months will see improve ment more marked than at present. The basic Influences are veering toward the constructive side. Now and then some untoward development comes to light, but on the whole, the so-called sore spots are being eliminated and the way toward improvement is being oepened up by add! tlonal price and wage readjustments. If the stock market Is a barometer of conditions the greater degree of confidence that exists would appear to bs Unfounded, But the stock market, at the moment'. Is probably not nearly as good an Index as the bond market which, since the first of the month, has been showing steady Im provement. This has been based on the presumption ot progressively easier money ratea as the year moves pn. In the case of the stock market, opera tions are on such a limited scale and so influenced by professional activities, that tne course of prices, except wnere specuic influences are at work, is meaningless. One thing is clear, however, that the stock market Is not called on to face such an array of unfavorable news as pre vailed earlier In the year. This would presume that the process of readjustment is moving forward with fair speed and that in many avenues a pronounced de gree of progress has been made toward stability. Turpentine and Rosin.

By HOLLAND. Herbert Hoover has again spoken encouragingly of the outlook and in that he is in some measure supported by Elisha Lee, who is vice president of the Pennsylvania Railroad com pany. Some time ago Mr. Hoover said that he is persuaded that de pression is in part at least ended and improvement has begun. He meant that fundamentally conditions are being stabilized and he was encour aged in the belief that within two years stabilization will have beery completed. "A He is not alone among cabinet members in the view that a change has come, which, although slight, gives promise of the dawn of bet ter things. The State department, which found itself almost over whelmed with diplomatic difficulties, which covered as a whole almost all of the world, is gradually overcom ing these difficulties. The Treasury department has reason for hoping that enormous and difficult problems which were upon the desk of Sec retary Mellon when he took office are in the course of solution. Mr, Hoover's department is gaining. Corner Has Been Turned. Mr. Hoover said to the delegates to the national shoe and leather expoeltlon, who were in session a few daya ago, that the corner of depression has been turned. He felt encouraged by the promise of Im provement in our foreign trade. Mr. Hoover Is not one of those who, like a distinguished banker of the west, believe domestlo trade. He is apparently 1 agreement with James A. Farrell, presi dent of the United States Steel corpora tion, whose long experience in developing export trade was sufficient to Justify him in saying mat or our entire industrial and agricultural production 10 per cent la con. sumed at home, and It production la pushed to its capacity then there would 1 remain 20 per cent of surplus products and upon thia surplus our profitable world t trade could be baaed. Mr. Hoover Is of the opinion that aa our production in creases, as it should increase, our foreign trade should also be enlarged. Already purchases by foreigners of our foodstuffs and some of our raw materials are ex ceeding or promise to exceed like pur chases which were made In the United States for several years before th Euro pan war began. Danger of Competition. On the other hand we are in some dan ger of successful competition mads by European countries and especially by Germany In the markets of the world where manufactured products are sold. He speaks of tha improved condition In Europe of which there la no longer any doubt. This will make It possible for Europe and for the next year or two. Germany especially, to buy cotton and copper and some other raw materials in very large amounts. European manufac turers, he says, are discovering that ihi markets of the entire world are larger or speedily will be larger than they were before the war. Vice President Lee of the Pennsylvania Railroad company is persuaded that signs are not wanting that the corner has been hirn,d ha helleVAfl that rntlwsiv man agers bs well as Industrial leaders are J beginning to discover the appearance of daylight. Evidently Mr. Lee has been cllosely following public statements of Secretary Hoover. In fact he speaks of Mr. Hoover as "a pessimistic optimist' and he Illustrated this paradoxical de scription by saying that, although Mr. Hoover anticipates sunshine when he goes abroad, neverthelelss he alwaya takes with him his raincoat snd his Umbrella. Politician ot High Order. Here then we have a politician of high order who is also a very practical mat and an exoerlenced Tallway operator wh' In no politician, speaking a like thought, not over-optimisftc, but encouraging. When Mr. Hoover says that the corner of depression has passed and when - Vice President Lee says that he cannot help feeling that signs are not wanting that the corner has been turned and daylight begins to appear, then It Is made appar ent that able men In public life and In railway operation are now thinking alike upon the conditions. Progress of the Crops. Weekly Crop Bulletin of the Omaha Cham ber of Commerce. .Improvement in progress of the crops is not to be called general during the past week. Important districts show Improve ment, but in the main crops have not had a fair chance. In the spring wheat belt, which occupies . the center of .the staga at this time, Improved temperature con- aitions nave not ueen HLCcuiiiimmcu uj mv desired rainfall in a very large portion of the district, and it Is useless to cloak the fact that large areas of small grain in the western part of the spring wheat belt are damaged beyond recovery. The Red and Jim river valleys got good rains during the week, which will prove of great value for most of their crops. But the Jim valley is already harvesting bar ley and wheat so that those crops are gen erally too far along to be affected favor ably. It is generally conceded that the yield of spring wheat along the aouthern border of the belt will be a very moderate crop. Add to this the certainty tnat two thirds of North Dakota, the Black hiiis country, and Montana, outside the Milk river valley and perhaps the Miles City and the outlook Is anything but up to early ' season promise. The corn belt, while at the orltlcal stage for its main crop, is still in good condition. During the week the western end of the corn belt, which Is still en gaged In harvesting and threshing win ter wheat and oats, enjoyed fair condi tions, for while temperatures were slightly . above normal there was much humidity so that corn did not suffer generally and harvesting and threshing made rapid progress. -Threshers returns show that with very small areas excepted the yield of wij ter wneat is Deiow early estimate, in is particularly true in- the Ohio valley where orange rust was noted early In the season in southern Illinois and In diana, and in Kansas and Nebraska along the border of the two states embracing much of the country between the Platte and Kansas rivers. The exaggerated es timate of wheat yields this year consti tute nothing short of a system ot picking the farmer's pockets. East of the Mississippi river and par ticularly In Illinois heat was excessive and where the soli had been dry for some time fears were expressed for tho outcome of the corn crop. For four days In succession much of Illinois had a maximum of 100 degrees or above. Tha eastern part of the state and some points In Indiana got, good rains late in the week, however, and it is probable 'he general conditions will Improve. Tho upper Ohio valley got rain enough to re lieve threatened drouth but the lower valley states are greatly in need of rain. The eotton belt got ample rain during the past week. The eastern part of tha belt where drouth of Increasing severity has been noted for some weeks Is now In fair shape and improvement la noted in tne three staple crops, cotton, tobacco and corn.
