Show j LOCAL SECURITIES. Th market fnr local securities has da- j vlopi no important changes during the : past woek. All differences notlceaW. a I compared with s wk ag. are of minor j tmportince The general hlh level which has prevailed for some time seems to be warranted by monetary conditions Any market changes in the better gTade of securities will very likly be in the nature na-ture of advances. The tVnanclal Interest of tbe entire country Is centered on the continued importation im-portation of gold. Bankers of the country coun-try are strongly of the opinion tliat unless un-less pome financial arrangement -'an he made with the allied pvwars, by which i their obllgatlone --in he met in this 0Mtt-i 0Mtt-i try without further (told movements. The United Statec will experience a period of '. pronounced Inflation. Bankers anticipate (that nieh Inflation would bring on extensive ex-tensive stock speculation, which, if not controlled within reasonable limits, would I be dansercAis in the extreme dangerous because after the war ended the demand ! for credit would no lonsrer be for stock j spernls I Ion to a dangerous degree, but j would be transferred to an industrial de-1 de-1 mand. Such a change would bring about an almost certain decrease hi price of ' Mcuritln from the high level reached I during the period of Inflation and specu-I specu-I la t ton. 1 1 probably Is the real I ta t Ion of t he I possibilities of. this condition that is j bringing financial representatives of the allies to confer with American baiikors. The aim expressed of American bankers Is to make the allied powers a loan sufficient In amount to maintain their j credit. If this loan should not be made and gold shipments continue as during the past sixty days, purchase of eaaiern securities on the "bull" movement would be daneerous. Conditions generally, viewed from an economic standpoint, strongly support j the Idea of a foreign loan to meet Kuro-I Kuro-I Dean demand for munitions of war. This course would seem the most logical a- ! well as the nafrnt. The loan would put 1 j an end, for a considerable lime at least. ' ; to the danger of Inflation through un- ) natural gold movements. It would leave j AmerlcHn credit on a much more stahle and 6,ife baslx, and would also prevent the marked Increase In commodity jtrlces ! 'which would be sure to accompany Infla ; tlon, such increase working, as it quite , certainly would, a hardship on the work-tax work-tax cianses.
