ders of official Washington. !

and bitter discussion—and thus great¬
ly lesseening its intended moral effect
—administration leaders cannot obtain

lution so amended as to reassure

of this country. Therefore,* adoption
of the resolution in essentially the same
form as reported by the senate foreign
relations committee last session is
practically assured. Any effort to af¬
fix to it a declaration of continued sup¬
port of the allies' or of the French, de¬
signed to impress Germany and heart¬

position by the so-called irreeoncila

MORE CONFIDENCE
FELT Or BUSINESS
COMMERCIAL WORLD FEELING
WAY CONVINCED THAT THE
WORST IS OVER
RAW MATERIALS PLENTIFUL
Houston Comments On Second Nation¬
al Survey Made By Fidelity And
Deposity Company
Baltimore.—David F. Houston, com¬
menting on the second survey of na¬
tional conditions just completed by the
Fidelity and Deposit company, said:
“The survey indicates that the busi¬
ness world is stiil feeling its way. :but
with increasing confidence and with
the conviction that the worst has pass¬
ed. The country has successfully borne
the strain caused by a most notable
drop in prices, particularly of a vast
volume of raw materials, and has
weathered a trying period of liquida¬
tion.
“The demand for finished products
has not developed to tbe point where
our factories feel justified in taking
the requisite quantity of our surplus
raw materials to furnish the necessary
relief to the producers; hut there are
some indications of a change in this
direction. Business men realize that
forced action based on artificial opti¬
mism may lead to unwise action and
produce further embarrassment. The
foreign situation has not shown the
expected improvement and continued
difficulties are experienced in discov¬
ering an effective European market for
our commodities.
“This survey does point to certain fa¬
vorable domestic, conditions. The
cost of living has appreciably dimin¬
ished. Building operations in a num¬
ber of districts tend to increase. There
have recently been no strikes of con¬
sequence. Greater productivity of la¬
bor per man is reported from all dis¬
tricts.
"Raw materials are plentiful and
physical transportation conditions are
good. There have been no business
failures of moment. The crop outlook
is satisfactory, and the banking situa¬
tion has Improved, it is believed that
confidence in business circles is slow¬
ly spreading and that while there is
hesitancy the business men of the
country are feeling their way with
sound business caution, and the coun¬
try is working back toward a more
Stable condition.
“In undertaking to give business
men a comprehensive and timely pic¬
ture of national conditions and pub¬
lic opinion, the Fidelity and Deposit
company has once again performed a
distinct public service-.
"What the survey discloses should i
be an encouragement to ua all to go
forward with confidence, though not 1
with recklessness.”

work. Nothing seemed to agree with

uncomfortable bloated tip feeling in
my stomach, and although I Tried

the ga mo is not permitted on the Sab¬
bath,
* To deprive the modem player,"
continued Mr. Evans, “of his Sunday
golf—the only day in the week that
some men can pm.v—is a great bard
