ALL EYES 01 STOCK MARKET (By Henry Clews)

(BY HE5ET CLEWS.) NEW YORK. March '20. .n extra session of Congress has been called for April 16. Its possibilities for good or evil are tremendous. If Congress Is to bi influenced by factionalism nnd efforts to secure party advantat-s 7jTT the present international crisis, its assembling will be a misfortune. If. on

the other hand, real patriotism prevails, and personal advancement or party ambitions are consistently subordinated to national interests, then Congress may be a source of strength and confidence. The cnll for patriotic service and sacrifice should be forthcoming as readily within the walls of Congress as without, and our government should receive steadfast support from both branches of the legislature in its foreign relations. This Is a time for sober thinking and sober speakinjr; political pyrotechnics are not wanted. The stc k market is operating: under a maze of conflicting- conditions. The possibilities of war with Germany have seemingly been discounted. There are few stock for sale in any direction, although some temporary liqu tion was induced in the railroad shares by the prospect of a strike nnd renewed foreign selling. Outside of the strike situation, however, the condition of the railroad is favorable. The Russian revolution was also regarded as a favorable development. A decision "U the constitutionality of the Adamson law is shortly expected. The railroads are still burdened with traffic, vhih, however, by mums of improved organization they are handling? more efficiently. KmbarKoes are hejnjr successfully relieved. General business continues active and the outlook for its continuance is assuring. Industrial plants in all parts of fie country are runninu full sped arid full time. The steel trade is particularly active, with no sign of slowing down. In fact, nil of the primary industries b.ed upon mineral products show no cessation of the abnormal activity enjoyed for the past two years. Srrinfc is c!,,se at hand, and with it we must expect '.lie usual widening of business enterprise, also the development of the customary seasonal optimism: although crop conditions thus far have pot. been satisfactory. Mone

tary conditions are entirely satisfactory. ! the financial community being completely rrepared to meet any require- J ments of the American government. A j new French loan of $100,000,000 is to I be brought out in this market and there) are rumors also of an important Italian! loan. The British government has an-! nounced another issue of $5n,000,0nO,

which, however, will not be placed in this market. The I?;ink of England's proportion of reserve to liabilities has risen to 16 60 per cent, asainst 14 per cent a week ago. Nearly $57,000,000 of

gold arrived this week, including ?41.-l 000. 000 teceived from Canada; making i the total arrivals this year over $220.000,000, and since January 1, 1915. $360,(100.000. This huge accumulation of gold is a powerful stimulant to credit

and inflation. The war appears to be on its last legs; its tottering steps are evidence thereof. Xo sane nation on the American continent will dare to stand for "f righ tfulness warfare" on the sea, 83 set forth in the recent orders issued. It is evidently a forlorn hope and represents a linal desperate effort, through the threat of sinking ships carrying human beings without any provision made to save them. It is suggestive that the end of th; war Is near. No Republican government on our South American continent will be false and depraved enough to place Itself In a position to wage war against the United States under such present conditions, so we have nothing to fear from that riuarter.

Women! Keep This On Dresser! Never Let Corns Ache Twice

Instantly ! Few drops stop corn-soreness, then corns and calluses shrivel, loosen and lift out with lingers No pain !

The world owes thanks to Ihe genius in Cinoinna ti who discovered freczone, Ihe new ether drug. Small bottles of the magic fluid can now Ve bad at any drug stote for a few . ents. You simply apply a few drops of this freefone upon a tender, aching corn or a hardened callus. Instantly the soreness disappears and shortly you will find the corn or callus so loose and shriveled that: you lift it off with the finger. Xot n bit of pain or soreness is felt when applying freer.one or after

wards. It doesn't even irrkate the skin or flesh. For a few cents one can now get rid of every hard Corn, soft corn, or corn between the toes, as well a- pamf-.tl calluses on bottom of feet. Koryor,e who tries f-ezone becomes an enthusiast because it really doesn't hurt or pain one particle. Tell your druggist you want a small bottle of genuine freezone. Each bottle is packed in a little round wood case. Pon t accept anything else. Adv.
