EXPANSION IN
PRICES MEETS
WITH CHECK
WASHINGTON, March 1 (by Asso
rted Press).—An early ending of the
general expansion characterizing the
war and post-war periods is forecasted
in a statement issued today, summar
izing February business conditions, by
the Federal Reserve board.
Financial authorities everywhere,
says the statement, are looking more
seriously at the general situation in
credit, and are beginning to urge the
adoption of conservative policies.
The upward movement in prices, it
is declared, apparently has met with
a check.
Sugar stocks are going up, but not
on consumers’ shelves.
If years go by contraries 1920 ought
to bring many blessings.
Liberty bonds will not bite the pos
sessor. Wild-cat securities do.
For a troubled conscience try shov
eling the snow off your sidewalk.
It A lump of coal for a lump of sugar
may prove about an even trade.
’Talking about the coal situation also
helps to keep many of us warm.
£
If your sweetheart turns low the
light, cheer up! She's but conserving
coal.
The coal situation continues to stim
ulate production in typewriter sup
plies.
Liberty bonds are best in the long
run even if the government' is retiring
them.
“Operators Can Not Raise Price of
Coal,” and neither can a lot of the con
sumers.
The last glimmering ray of hope is
gone. The kick is to be taken out of
hair tonics.
I When mothers demand an eight-hour
oay then the world may as well givg
up the ghost.
Sales of jewelry have doubled in
P&tw, and this with no rush of Amer
ican tourists.
The coal shortage has crowded the
sugar shortage into the background of
public interest.
“Nothing to arbitrate” is a form of
words that should be relegated to some
dead language.

CADIZ has made up its'mind to
be equal to tlie opportunities
with which the after-the-war
world abounds. We shall hear
of Cadiz in many ways, says The
Christian Science Monitor. It has taken
note of the new determination of the
northern ports such as Vigo, Bilbao,
and some others, and of Oporto of the
Portuguese, to make a big forward
movement, and, Spain generally being
in an advantageous position in the
matter of maritime commerce, it con
ceives a more brilliant future opening
out for it in the new world conditions
than ever it had dreamed of. Vigo,
with the connivance of the Americans,
it is understood, is about to make a
strong bid for the carrying trade with
North America, and as the main port
of entry into Europe from the upper
half of the American continent.
But Cadiz has had an advantage in
the past with regard to the South,
and hopes not only to maintain it, but
to strenghten it. She has been, in
effect, a great receiving and distribut
ing center, dealing with the South
American states, and spreading the
goods she received over Portugal and
all Spain. She has flourished, and she
has done well by herself in every way.
Put with Cadiz as with practically
every other place in Spain, there has
in modern times been a decline and a
recovery. It is believed now that the
recovery will be great.
The New Movements.
Cadiz starts the new period with a
fine new equipment in the matter of
her harbor. The new Reina Victoria
quay will astonish the commercial men
and travelers who go there after a
long absence. The San Felipe break
water has been extended, and there
have been dredging and widening oper
ations, so that capacity and accom
modation are now much greater than
they used to be. Big liners may now
berth themselves well, and as soon
as they are hitched up they will find
the newest electric traveling cranes
and all the most un-fo-dntn nnrt an
pliances in operation.
So Cadiz bids the traders come, and
with Vigo, Seville, Bilbao and Barce
lona it helps Spain to make a new
challenge to the world in maritime
matters, and this she most certainly
does. No country has such a fine sea
board and one so advantageously sit
uated. The Spaniards have thought of
the maritime possibilities of their
country before now, but they are think
ing of it intensely in the new condi
tion of the world economics. Already
far more ships are calling at Cadiz
than before the peace—though these
mere callers do not amount to much.
In the old prewar days the Hamburg
American line established a regular
monthly service from there to Pernam
buco, Bahia, Rio de Janeiro and San
tos ; one or two French passenger lines
were making regular use of the port,
and the English boats did so regularly.
The war interfered naturally with
most of these services, but now they
are being resumed.
Should Be Approached From Sea.
While in these present days and
hours economics are everything, and
other things seem secondary, it is al
ways hard to talk and write of Cadiz
in the purely„materialistic way. She
has splendid harbor facilities, perfect
opportunities for trade. About her
streets and places there is a hustling,
businesslike look. Like all commercial
businesslike* ports she has a smart
up-to-date appearance. There is some
thing about Cadiz which reminds one
of Genoa. She is different from all oth
er Spanish cities, even the ports, for
she is smarter than Malaga, and not
so tinged with American and French
as is the marvelous Bilbao. But there
is something more about Cadiz—there
is her really lovely appearance when
she is approached from the sea.
Just as one should always, if pos
sible, be in a particular mood for the
complete enjoyment of certain experi
ences. so one should always approach
a
_I
in Cadiz
particular cities in a certain way and
the poorest way of ail to approach
almost any city is by train. Never go
to Cadiz by rail. Better far, if you are
in mid-Spain and must use the roads
or the tedious ferrocaril, go to Seville
or over to Tangier in Africa and make
one of those little voyages that are
regularly available, in order to come
upon Cadiz by way of the sea. It is
generally acknowledged that there is
no other sea approach in the world
that is so beautiful as this.
Cadiz at such times and in such cir
cumstances is a glorious picture in
white and blue. She rises up from the
sea on a small platform of limestone
rock which only a very narrow isth
mus holds to the mainland. In a ma
jestic silver beauty the houses with
their azoteas, or flat roofs, seem to
rise like a fairy city above the deep
blue of the sea, their miradore,s or
view towers surmounting them. All are
heavily coated with whitewash fre
quently renewed.
Atway* White and, Clean.
Thus the city is always white, quite
smokeless, and is kept spotlessly clean.
It glistens in the sun against the blue
Andalusian sky, with waters lapping
it nearly all around. The poets and
the descriptive writers have almost ex
hausted themselves in their use of fine
adjectives to describe its beauty and
yet they feel they have failed. Span
iards call it their “tazita de plata,” or
silver dish; some of them say it is
more like a “palacio de plata” beauti
fully chased, and from another aspect
they liken it to a great alabaster ship
floating out upon the waters. No terms
are too strong in which to speak of
Cadiz thus seen from the sea, for she
is indeed very beautiful, veritably “a
white pearl set in a crown of sapphires
and emeralds.”
The interior of no city could com
pletely match such an outside view,
but yet Cadiz, within, is good and
pleasant also, and is always extremely
clean. But it is a very practical place,
flnfl thmio-li it hno ito +
I ...
a spire rising over all, it has little in
the way of art#—one of the oldest cities
of Spain though it he—to attract the
visitors who need it for their linger
ing at any place. It is a place to
W'onder at, to tarry at for but a little
while, and then to leave, knowing it
full w'ell to be unforgettable. But in
the new' days of traveling that are be
ginning, no person who wanders
toward the south of Spain should,
through neglect, miss seeing Cadiz
from the water. It will live in his
memory when he has forgotten many
pictures. It will hold its place in his
esteem even when he comes face to
face with the incomparable Bay of
Naples.
Few Saw Historic Act.
When the great seal of the French
republic was affixed to the peace
treaty, thereby validating the signa
tures of President Poincare and M.
Louis Nail, minister of justice and
keeper of the great seal, only a few'
privileged high officials attended. The
seal, somewhat larger in size than a
silver dollar, shows on one side the
seated figure of the republic with the
inscription, “French Republic, Demo
cratic, One and Indivisible.” On the
other side are the words, “In the
Name of the French Republic,” sur
rounded by a wreath of oak leaves en
circled by the republican device, “Lib
erty, Equality, Fraternity.”
The seal is imprinted by means of
a handworked stamping machine, re
sembling a letter copying press.
Booming Japanese Commerce.
Among recent instances of govern
ment help to Japanese commerce is
the founding at Singapore and Harbin
of commercial museums as headquar
ters for Japanese trade. The museum
located at Singapore wfill aid in the
development of trade in the South
seas; that at Harbin will serve Man
churia, Mongolia and Siberia.
