i _ Money and

noi-inggtiie lm few mdat_iis.gasseee and

gots about the condition of "money" and i _ge money market have been. setting , ifominent positions on the newspapers 'front page alongside the “thrillers” of the -day, instead of the financial page, when the condition of money market is always told to those interested.

Tho moral of this sim ly that thc

n';oney'nidrl£et is now in sucli s` condition that ,it should be of popular interest and l ` rhaps of profit. To the average citizen ‘ onsyla-wqll,.mooe and s.do1lai° le ii

ndr`~e'd` oe'nts. To`tli'c 'world oi fihanec e meaning of "money" is entirely dif-

ifanént. It is a commodity, to bc bought abd sold like wheat or potatoes-and when lransforrned into the asset called credit,

gre dollar may be expanded into six dol-

rs. ‘ Therefore money, like vegetables, must

have a market-and that forum is New York. Since the Gotham banks makc fully one-fifth of tho loans in the coun- ‘ry, the prices for money that this mar- xet makes rule throughout the land. With money the astute ones can usually make rioney. Business men, cities and corpor- ations are constantly in necd of money for

imlprovements, and thus ii dcmand for the go den commodity is created. The greater the demand and the smaller tho response to it, the higher the price paid for money. Tho price is interest. Wbcn money is plentiful, tl-ie price is cheap.

At first glance the plentitude of money

would seem to mean prosperity; brit hy I financial paradox, it is uuunlly prosper- -ity that causes s scarcity of the where- Withal. Despite political nllt-cations, such E the explanation of the “tightness” of the money market just now. _

A period of great prosperity' has pro-

duced a great deal of inoncy, and this honey has been promptly absorbed in new enterprises and business .iinproifcincntm fihis confidence in our prosperity has ciius» cd much of the ready money to be invest- cd-and when corporations want; money they have to pay a higher rate for it he- cause it is source. Just nt this time the scnrcity is accentuated, for in litlie full mil- lions of dollars in (ash must be sent to \Vestem banks in order fo "move the crops." Thus in a couple of weeks’ time there is this sudden call for money to pay the farm hands, railroads and other expenses connected with luirvesting n bil- Son dollars' worth of crops. The treasury usually comes to the relief by depositing

as surplus funds in these localities-us it ;s dons in the presentginstnncc. ` How docs this "tight" condition of the money market affect ordinary small in- vestors? It means that they can buy bonds and short-term notes at lower rates than ever before.

\Vliyf Because the banks that usually

invest in bonds find it now profitable to

-_

loan out their surplus funds as cash, be- causo money is_yieldlng larger returns. Natumlly thcro is a falling of! in the de- mand_ for bonds and a consequent decline in price. _ _ _N°i* °F_\lY that. but tho great corpors-_ N005. wishing to float loans, quite natu- miiy do not wish to borrow cash or issue bonds under such conditions when they must psy extra high for the .privilege-_ and so lssuesbort-term notes that run

but a short time and which Fay interest far greater than the bond. 0 _courso, the °bl'§t’f i8 to pay high interest during this period of prosperity and redeem tho note in three or fivo years, while with s bond, tlie_ interest would run a much longer penod. This short-term note, properly, investigated, is about as attractive' tothe

“Cham” System of Small

Stores. _

\Vhile the "cliain” 'idea of small stores

is nearly, a score of years old, a recent investigation of the retail trade indicates that it has not nearly rcnclicd its liiuit. In fact, by all tokens thc "chain" of small stores is only upon the very threshold of its coming triumph in merchandizing. Practically the only thing that can harn-

per the spread of the "chain" idea is the ack of men capable and trustwortliy enough to be xnaiiugors. Many of these companies 1\r'c putting into new towns throughout the country a store about every ruontli-so that thc problem of finding worthy managers for them is a licnrt- breiiking tnsk. They are usilully chosen from clerks who have made good, en tluit in this field tho wide-awake young iziun can jump rapidly. Thirty-odd years ago su Irish lsd, fresh

from Kilkenny, landed in New York ami secured n job in the ste\vard's dcpurt- ment of n big hotel. lla soon learned the art of buying; supplies cheaply, und inter opened u sinuli store whore he bought good groceries cheaply and sold them on a snuill margin. Soon a second, then ii third store added to _his economy of buying unil advertising. Ile now controli 180 grocery stores in Greater New York und nnothcr lnrrre group in Philadelphia and Pcnnfiylvunia towns.
