World econ omic conditions - during May pointed to no immediate general business revival, according to the monthly summaries from its foreign representatives issued Thursday night by the Bureau of For eign and Domestic Commerce. Considerable improvement financially was noted in Europe, but trade and shipping were dull with marked indus trial difficulties apparent in some coun tries. In the Far East, improvement in conditions was reported slight and in South America the situation was declared- practically unchanged but with a less confident tone to future prospects "Varying conditions in the cotton mar ket abroad were reported. Inquiries relatve to American cotton were re ported to be increasing in Belgium and a slight increase in imports was noted in France. Stocks of American cot ton at Havre May 19 totalled 117,000 bales and 37,000 bales were reported afloat. The cotton market in Portugal was declared to be understocked while a notable decrease in the stocks of cotton in Great Britain was observed during the month, amounting to 95,000 bales as compared with 190,000 on hand at the same time last year. In England during the month, a down ward tendency in prices was shown A general strike in the cotton indus try is expected, the report said, be cause of proposed wage reductions. CHINA IS OVERSTOCKED Demand for cotton in China was re ported dull because of overstocked mar kets, though there was a notable in crease in the imports of cotton-mill ma chinery, cotton spindles and cotton yarn while Chinese and Japanese investment capital was going into cotton mills While money is easier in Great Bri tain, the coal strike has caused a gen eral stagnation of trade and industry the London report declares. The indus trial situation probably has never been worse, the report continues, with more than 2,000,000 persons idle all indus tries not shut down operating on part time- The French government appears sat lsned with the success of the $100,000, 000 loan floated in the United States and feels it will permit payment of debts previously contracted in this country, the Paris report asserted. Evi dences of a revival in Belgian indus tries affected by the British coal strike were reported from Brussels, with an increase in the imports of American foodstuffs and cotton. a. decreased toreign trane with an acute industrial crisis resulting from d creased prices were regarded as the out standing developments in Italy during the month. Splendid crop . propcts, however, were reported. IMPROVING IN GERMANY The financial situation appears to be improving in Germany, the Berlin re port declared, but the industrial situa tion is being seriously hampered! by the Silesian troubles and consequent coal shortage. Marked activity in es tablishing agencies in Austria by Brit ish, East Indian and Japanese inter ests was noted. There were no signs' of improvement in economic conditions in 'the .Scandi navian countries, the advices said. A revival of industrial activity in China was offset by depressed commod ity markets and a small silk crop, ac cording to the Pekin report, while eco nomic condintions in Japan were said by Tokio advices to show only a slight improvement, though the finan cial outlook was better. Except for improvement in the gov ernment finances, economic conditions in Mexico were reported practically un changed. Argentina financial conditions were reported as about the same but with, a decrease in .commercial faflures. Im ports from Great Britain, except tex tiles, were observed to be decreasing and German competition was reported keener. Little change in the commercial sit uation in Brazil was noted. The Bel gian economic mission was said to be actively promoting trade relations with Brazil while Germany wa3 making ev ery effort to reg-ain its former position eing favorea by its liberal credit toxins and !ov cxcvange rate. 'It e financial position of the Chilean overnment was reported as still criti cal and continued unssttird economic conditions in Peru were shown. SOUTHERN MARKETS MUST BE DEVELOPED 42 East Trade Street Chicago, June 10. The continued sta bility of American business depends upon the increasing the purchasing power of this country s backward mar kets in Latin-America and the Orient, Senator Medill McCorkmick told a con vention of Illinois bankers today. European purchases can no longer be regarded as the backbone of American foreign commerce and this country must look to the market of the unde veloped country to the Southland West for future trade, said Senator McCor mock. .. In touching on European affairs, Sen ator McCormick repeated a ' conversa tion he had with a German financial leader, who compared the United States to a second Rome, whose destiny would lead it to world dominion.

NEGOTIATE LOAN FOR ROAD BODY Fifty Thousand at Six Per Cent Has Been Secured by Commissioners. The Mecklenburg County Highway Commission has acquired $50,000 ir. a loan from the Commercial National Bank of the city on the baj's of agree ment reached Tuesday between the board of county commissioners and the members of the highway commission. The board of commissioners, since the highway commission is not empowered to borrow money and since it will have no funds to work with until some of the :p,uoo,ooo road bonds of the county are sold this month, agreed n advance ?50, 000 to the highway commission to cover expenses of road-building and maintain ance. In accordance with this agreement a loan at six per cent interest was ne gotiated at the Commercial National Bank and the highway commission now has the funds to cover its current ex penses. The agreement " extends only to expenses that have become current since the highway commission took ov er the road-building functions of the board of county commissioners. It does not cover the debts inherited by the highway commission " from the board of commissioners.. That controversy is sttll to be settled.

A bolt of gingham cloth such as is used to make nurses uniforms for rough work and a small camera with one or two pamph lets on the subject of tuberculosis and its eradication were the only objects in the car that might serve to identify it. A comic feature of the case occurred Fridav mornine: when Miss Rankin was leaving her boarding place in an older car of the same type as the one stolen and also the property of the nurse's association.. As she was about to drive off a policeman, looking for the car stolen last night, stopped her and ask ed if the car she was driving belonged to her.
