MONDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 92V SEVEK, usiness Today Merchant's Prob lems and Current Tradev Conditions Senatorial Inconsistence What is puzzling.- a great many business men who have tried to keep jn close touch with the events In Washington is why some of the sen ators who made such a strenuos fight for the revival of the war finance orPoration should now be seeking by every means at their command to pre vent the further extension of govern ment credit in accordance with commit ments made to our allies during the ar- Both schemes are in (one re gnect alike, in that they involve the use of funds by the United States government to finance the needs of foreign countries. To the use of pub lic moneys in this way in peace time there is considerable objection.

The letter is not only an in sistent plea that we demand the last pound of flesh from our former asso ciate in arms in collecting, interest and principal, . tout it ends - with the tiuestion, "Why feed and clothe an enemy?" One might overlook this display of spleen in the face of an individual, but that a leading business concern should go out of its way to stir up international ill-will, at a time when the world has enough of It and to spare,' is at least surprising.

Net operating income for 1920, taking the system as a whole, was $21,412,344, which barely covers interest charges, but this figure is over and above ,the heavy retroactive wage payments which the road made in 1920.

Financing Foreign Trade That it is desirable to "get the gov ernment out of business has been fre duently stressed in and out of con tress, and yet under pressure-from un- stored it must first regain its buying power. This will be a work of time. It Is just here that the .corporations formed under the Edge law can render a service by lifting from the exchange shifting the date of payment forward through the granting of long-term ,asy constituencies congress nas gone j credits, to a time when Euroo can about as far as it could providing pay with imports. There is a cer povernment money to finance exports, tain school of political thought, how This money, as Senator Edge recentlj ever, to whom the idea of taking pay- rmmrheu, wnio uul ut ma ment ior goods sent abroad bv means motile who earn it, whetehr the gov crninent collects it in taxes or sell securities to get it. The New Jersey senator went a step further and mad this statement, whioh may be regarded :s especially significant when coming from the representative of a highly industrial state: "No matter how much credit or money the United States may lend Europe either through private or government channels,, we are not going to entourage or stim- would prefer cancellation of the en tire foreign debt to the adoption Of such an expedient. It Is being frrrtted that this group is responsible for the stories recently emanating from Washington to the effect that the Wil son administration had committed itself to such a policy of cancellation at the peace conference in Paris. The authoritative denial of this story leaves the advocates of cancellation and of, forcing prompt payment to; ulate foreign purchasing if we impose wrangle between themselves. Mean- an embargo against imports from other lands. If the American producer needs jieli) don't let us hand him a pair of broken crutches. And it must be remembered that our imports will help pay for the goods we sent abroad, will help to restore foreign exchange to p. reasonable basis, and Indirectly will help Europe to curtail its enormous indebtedness to the United States " while the leading business men of the country are taking an active part in helping foreign countries to set their houses in order. "The latest instance is the action of the United States Steel corporation, which has just ar ranged to extend credits to its foreign customers up to $20,000,000. (Copyright, 1921, by N. Y. Evening Post, Inc.) fhe investor His Present Opportunities and Problems The Ideal Investment The ideal investment, like any other kind of Ideal, IS "difficult to, obtain. The qualities which go to make uo the ideal investment conflict with one an other to such an extent that the, best the investor may do is to ascertain what is most suitable to his particular reouroes A bond marked for its prime security of principal and cer tainty of interest cannot be obtained mi a high-yield basis; a bond which is exempt from taxation cannot be r xp'ected to yield as high a rate as one whose interest must be reduced by tax payments; a bond which can be mar keted on an hour's notice has an ad vantage over one 'which requires that the owner search for a buyer, and the advantage must be paid for. This item of marketability also affects the loan value of a bond. The Ideal invest ment must have a fair degree of stability; that is. it must be immune from irregular fluctuations. Market ability is not so desirable and it is not worth a great deal when it is ac companied by instability. Tre laUer characteristic is common to bOttos of inferior security, either of principal or interest. Unstable bonds require con nant watching and cause no end ol .vorry where they form the principal nan of an investment programme. On -he other hand, instability must rot le confused with the prospect of a'p- preciation which every bond of low coupon rate must have when money rat.es are beiner lowered, r with the prospect of depreciation when money rates are increasing. The ideal in vestment, after all, is the one which the investor can best afford to pur chase. There was a time when taj man of great financial resources could not afford to put too much of nirj money in low-yield securities. He could not afford to because it was not necessary. More recently the same investor has been under com pulsion, owing to high income-tax rates, to avoid high-yielding securities because all such securities are. taxable Central Pacific Short' Line 4 For investors ; who seek an dssue selling at a reasonable nrice and guaranteed by the Southern Pacific company, Central Pacific through short line first mortgage 4s, due in 1954, give a current" return of 5.65 per cent at 71,. or a yield of 6.02 if held to maturity. The $9,640,000 outstanding are secured by a first mortgage on the Ogden-Lucin cut-off road of 103 miles, representing a rate of $93,592 per mile While this mortgage is on a branch line, and at a liigh rate. Southern Pa cific's guarantee gives the issue good security. Bonds are issued in denomi nations of $1,000 only, and are redeem able at 107 1-2. They sold as high as 87 1-2 In 1917; 74 1-2 in 1920, and have reached 73 1-4 this year. (Copyright, 1921 by U. Y. Evening Post, Inc.)

This is a point which the in vestor might well consider in purchas ing a particular railroad bond. Many railroads have accumulated much heavier burdens during this period, while others have made substantial re ductions. Pennsylvania, for examnlo, has been obliged to increase its funded debt from $219,964,000 in 1914 to ft present total of $438,662,000, which, however, includes ihe recent $60,000, 000 issue made to refund bonds ma turing this year.

Devoting his attention to the specialty of women's diseases, he became a recognized authority in that line. His work, "The Common Sense Medical Adviser," is now in three million homes in this country and xJSurope. At one time Dr. Pierce represented his home dis trict in Congress. Fifty years ago last winter, 'this noted phys ician gave to the world' a Prescription which has never been equalled for the weaknesses of women. Many women m r every hamlet, town or city will gladly testify that Dr. Pierces Favorite Prescription did them a world of good. Another of this great physician's successful remedies is known as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and, like the Prescnp tion" is now sold by druggists everywhere, in both liquid and tablets.
