GENERAL BUSINESS CONDITIONS.
j' The monthly review issued by the National City Bank of New
York on May 2 discusses general business conditions as follows :
The general business situation continues to justify all reason-
able forecasts made of it at the beginning of the year. Not all
development have Jieen satisfactory but the balance of influentiaj
factors continues to-be of favorable .character. Easter trade was
good where weather ; conditions permitted and bank debits and
railway traffic have indicated distribution generally to be' in large
volume. Steel production in March set a new high record and April
. promises to show up as another active month even though-not up
to the level of March. The cotton goods branch .of .the. textile
industry is doing the best business in years lire manufacturers
have had a big first quarter' and most of the' motor companies have
. enjoyed a good volume of sales. - ( .'1
That business generally looks forward to -the maintenance of
activity during the. current quarter is indicated by the estimates
of cV requ.if5Jp?UtRylinyli?d !p.thr.rqUfoqdffby
committees m different parts of the country which anticipate -a
commodity movement in most lines equaling or slightly exceeding
TRat of a year ago. ' -1'
Among unfavorable factors -in .the present situation may be
listed the bituminous .coal strike which has now been ill progress
a month but has causecj little inconvenience to' general1 busineM
. thus far owing to heavy-stocks on hand and large production from
non-union !fliinesV. Production is off about - 40 . per cent since -the
strike. but' this- comparison is'with a period of abnormally high
operations ' present -mining 1 being only-. 14' -p. cent under last
. . year at this time and above the rate in 1925 and 1924. As a matter
' of fact demand is too- slack to absorb even the present output
which is down partly because of slow consumer buying.
- Devastating floods have wrought destruction over a large
section of the lower Mississippi Valley and caused a reduction of
purchasing power which will be felt in the primary markets of the
country. Aid is being brought to the stricken territories however
and extensive as the damage has been the business of the country
rests on too broad a base to be seriously affected thereby. Mean-
time cotton prices which have been strengthening slowly on
' improved consumption outlook have risen sharply aliove 15 cents.
! on prospects that the flood may result in a considerable reduction
in acreage. .
One qf the most significant developments of the month was
the publication of' figures On building contracts' awarded in ' March
which were the highcst'for any month on reedrd surpassing those
of March last year byT per cent. One would be rash to conclude
fron this that building is headed for new records every month
such an eventuality being neither probable nor desirable but the
cone usion at least is justified that building is in for no sudden
or d astic decline. In view of the importance of construction activi-
ties n the general busiiiid situation indication of continued sup-
' port from this quaricr 'iS' decidedly reassuring. -
Business earnings ' statements now coming out for the first
quarter make a mixed showing with -slightly over half of the
companies reporting gains as compared with A year ago. ' Of the
steel companies. United States Steel gained slightly but earnings
of most other companies were less satisfactory due to the soine-
. what slow start of the industry on the new year and the lower
prices quoted for- steel products. Returns from the automobile
industry were varied. While some of the oil companies did fairlv
well during the first quarter the effect on others of over-production
'and price cutting was marked.
Narrower margins of profit coupled with the increase of busi-
ness failures shown during recent months are indications of ten-
dencies at work in business of which account must lie taken.
! According to recent government .tables prices of industrial materi-
als as a result of recent declines are now at lowest levels sigre
the War. . i
MOTHER'S DAY.
The saving tenderness of a feverish age is the immortality of
the home ties whose chief sentiment envelops the motherhood
which cradles us. Ever since mankind discovered capacity for
emotion the world's sons and daughters have striven to express
something of the- genielciiess something of the profound love aiit)
sacrifice something of .the great and noble symbolism emlmdicd in
the word "mother." . . - t
There is sentiment ahd there is sentimentality but the feeling
which bids earth's children to bear thoughtful remembrance toward
the genius of the home defies the straight boundaries of definition ;
it is the truest purest impulse neither arguing nor explaining but
Justified in love and duty.
Searching the walls 4if art galleries and the verses of poets one
may find ' ever some new compelling light on the' loftiness of
motherhood; but 4Af the most art it is not necessary to search
beyond the walls of ones heart and within the verses of individual
experience id know that the loveliest thing of creation is enshrined
in the word "mother."
If it be necessary to set aside a day to urge us to turn lack
and smile a message tx fluke figures of sublimity then let it be
with quick generous and lasting sincerity. For ou Mothers Day'

Washington It te still true that
a gnat many Chinese regard the
United States as a true friend. .
Only n couple of . years ago the
head Chineie officiate of about 20
villages around Tientsin erected a
monument and an Inscribed tablet to
honor of - the American forces and
In appreciation of their protection
of 'the area - tram the disorganised
troop of General Wu Pei-Fu.
Wu had taken a " hod - trimming
tram Chang Tso-lin. the Manchurian
war lord at Bhanhalkuan and It; -appears
that the Fifteenth Infantry' .
stepped to and . saved .the Chinese 1
from pillage at tha handa of ' hla
disbanded troops.
Under tha treaty armed Chinese .
troops are prohibited from coming
within two mites of the foreign con-
cessions of Tientsin.
Tbe Flfeenth Infantry the prince
pal emponent unit of our soldiers ' ' '
In Chqa stepped out lm 1924 epd .
took :the field ';to prevent- Wua fern-'
nanta from violating tho protocol '
and- Its llnea spread over tha 20
villages mentioned at a time whan
villages outside tbe lines era said
to have been looted.
Subsequently the Chinese'' civil
tenders In. the saved territory pre- '
seated the monument and tablet- with -elaborate
ceremonies. Major General -WUlla
mD. Connor who -now com-
mands tho Second Division at Tort "
Bam Houston accepted with a
speech In Chinese.
One of the Chinese speakers " ax- '
pressed himself as fallows:
"May it be the pleasure of your '
grant and glorious nation always to
leave - these troops' In Tientsin n
necessary protection far tha Chinese
from themselves.
At that time presumably the
Chinese had little hopes that n
strong National army might come np
from the south to promise them
freedom from banditry and military
pillage. Even In these days how-
ever many of them probably have
little objoction to - tha - presence of
troops In Tientsin. .-' .i.'-
