A Suggestive Incident,

The placing of the new French loan fur
nishes an emphatic confirmation of the as
sertion that has been repeatedly made of
late years to the effect that the French are
the best financiers in the world, or rather
that French finances are more intelligently
and successfully managed than those of
any other country.
For the first instalment of the new loan
only IA, 900, 900 francs were required, but
the deposits offered by applicants for the
new securities amounted to the immense
sum of 2, $40, 600, 900 francs, or more than
sixteen times the amount of the loan. The
treasury officials, in order to meet this ex
traordinary condition as far as practicable,
decided to award the subscribers for single
bonds fractional sum and to allot to ap-
plicants for large sums per cent. of the
amount applied for. The remainder of the
deposits, amounting to IS per cent. of the
whole, will be returned forthwith to the de-
positors.
No other country in the world can furnish
q parallel to this remarkable example Of
thrift and prosperity thrift aud prosperity

class, but is general and widely distributed.

policy of a nation, in which such sugges-
tive incident occurs, that is we'll worth the
study of financiers and publicists. 1t cau-
not be explained simply on the theory of
the exceptional natural thrift and economy
of the French masses. There must bs
some wise and sound principle at the foun-
dation of system that produces soch re-
sults-a principle that operates to stimulate
quick and eager popular interest in the
finances of the country, which apparently
never abates or languishes from lack OF
confidence.
What that principle is it should be the
business of statesmen in other countries,
and especially in our own Republic, to f nd

Three Millions Short.

It is a startling proposition, but if the
census figures tell the truth the United
States is three million babies short in the
last ten yesrs. The Medical Record of De-
cembar 90 calls especial attention to this
remarkable fact, and says: sAll the world
has been discussing the decline 10 birthfate
and forthcoming depopulation of France.
The phenomenon has been regarded as both
unfortunate and peculiar. But if our last
census is correct somewhat similar process
is beginning with u.s."
The facts upon which this comment is
based are these:
In 1870-1S80 total increase of population
was II 59S,000. Increase from births s.
891, 900.
19S0-1S90 total increase of population
12 1926 600. From births $3.50, 900. AL
lowing for the advantage ofthe last decade,
of 25 per cent. more people to start with
than the former, the Record estimates a
falling off in births of say three millions,
and says again: "There are apparently
three million babies either not born or not
counted. The birth rateof the past decade,
according to the last census, is about the
same as that of France, Ireland and
Greece" The tendency is thus shown tc
be toward sterility in the United States az
