' Bu United Preen NEW YORK, Aug. 25.—Monday’s reactionary tendencies in industrials resulted in an average loss-of scarcely more than l-10th of a point In stocks of this class. This demonstration ofthe market's ability to absorb heavy profit-taking showed that the big bank interests had not abandoned he constructive side and also that the public was buying stock on an increasing scale. These indications encouraged buying at the opening today and the market as a whole displayed a strong tone notwithstanding an irregularity in oils due to further gasoline price cuts. General Railway Signal continued Its sensational performance moving up two points to anew record high SI 42 - activities proceeded brisk ty In many sections ofthe list around noon. Interests responsible for the move In Kelsie Wheel to the year’s high of 104 “4 several months ago, resumed bullish operations, carrying the stock to 97% compared with Monday’s low of 92. This spurt was accompanied by reports of an increase in the $6 dividend rate. May Department Stores ran up 2% points to 121%, reflecting the belief that the current earnings which are estimated at an annual rate of *l2 a share justify some sort of a special dividend declaration in addition to the regular $5 payment. Rails continued to display great Activity with trading, especially heavy in common stocks which are believed to be under accumulation in connection with merger plans. Local Bank Clearings Indianapolis bank clearings for Tuesday, Ang. 35. amounted to $2,543,000. Bank debits for Tuesday. Aug. -5, were $5.285,000.

Trade Reviews Say

By Alexander Hamilton Institute The first point of Interest regarding the Belgian debt to the United States is the large amount of money obtained by Belgium after the Armistice. After he Armistice, the United Treasury loaned to Belgium 000,000, as compared with only and 1918 before the Armistice. . The second point of Interest is how much of the debt s actually cancelled and what percent will be collected. The $246,000,000 loaned after the Armistice is to be paid in full with interest at 314 per cent under terms similar to those accorded 'Great Britain. The payment is to be spread over sixty-two years with annual remittances amounting to a little over $9,000,000 per year. In collecting the $171,000,000 loaned before the Armistice, however, the element of moral sympathy plays a part, with the result that 70 per cent of this debt will be virtually cancelled. There is no cancellation of the principal, but no Interest will l)o charged. And since the principal is to be paid in instalments, beginning June 15, 1926, and ending .June 15, 1987, the net result is practically the same as if $51,000,000 had been put at interest in 1918 at 3 1 4 par cent. That is, the collection of $171,000,000 by installments will have a present worth In terms of 1918 dollars equivalent to about $51,000,000. The result is the same as if $120,000,000 of the debt had been cancelled in 1918 and the remaining $51,000,000 paid with interest at 314 per cent. In terms of 1918 dollars America will collect about SO per oent of the money loaned before the Armistice.
