The Views of a Banker.

The speech of President Arthur Reynolds of the
American Bankers Association, yesterday at Rich
mond follows closely the line of argument of Presi-
dent Vanderlip. of the National City Bank of New
York. Both Mr. Vanderlip and Mr. Reynolds dwell
upon the desirability of the business man entering
politics.
Mr.. Reynolds believes that public opinion when
properly informed would not tolerate the handicaps
legislation imposes upon business and he urges that
the citizen, the from whom the lawmaker holds
his commission, should exercise his share of in
fuence in the making of the law as we'll as in its
administration
Mr.. Reynolds points to the railroad situation and
deporeS the fact that the Interstate Commerce Com
mission has failed to aid the carriers in their rea-
sonable requests This" says he mot only has
undermined the values of one of the most impor-
tant instruments for savings funds" which will be
felt not so much by the banks and business men as
by the salaried and wage Garner. In addition,
he declares the value of these stocks will be i'm
paired in the minds of European holders who esti-
mate them in proportion to their earnings, and who
will sell them, thus calling for additional exporta-
tons of gold with its attendant business disturbances
THE business men of the country" says Mr..
Reynolds, "are anxious to the end of the de-
pressing influence of Congressional interference and
bureaucratic restrcton they regard present methods
rather as tyrannical than liberal and no progress
toward permanent prosperity is possible under con-
tnuation in the present course"
The position of the president of the Bankers As
sociaton probably represents the view of great
orty of his business associates and will serve to call
general attention legislative and administrative
program that has failed to receive the Endorsement
which its political followers are herslding.

Preservation of Life and Property.

Only few years ago it charged against the
United States that its people shamefully in
different to the safeguarding of human life in
transportation and in the industries 1t was con-
stantly asserted, and with good reason, that many
thousands of lives needlessly sacrificed every
year. Then came the safety first movement, which
has been rapidly extending until it has been
adopted by nearly all the great corporations through
out the country. Yesterday report submitted
to the National Council of Industrial Safety in
vention in Chicago, a report showing that in six
years deaths and injuries resulting from industrial
accidents in the United States have been reduced
onehalf Six years ago. the report set forth, there
average of $4,000 deaths, resulting from
100000 industrial accidents annually. Considering
that the safety first movement is comparatively
young yet and that it was in anything like extensive
operation for only part of the six years covered
by the report it is evident that the number of cas-
ualties will be still further reduced. The United
States is we'll the way toward ridding itself Of
the reproach, justified, of being Indifferent to
the wholesale killing and manning of railway pas
sengers and industrial wage earners.
Such tremendous results accomplished in the
preservation of life and limb by the exercise of or
dinary precautions suggest great possibilities in the
way of reducing the number of fires, most of which
preventable, and which cost the country in the
neighborhood of $2oooooooo every year.

The aImpregnablen Fortress.

Now that we have recovered little from the
surprise of 1.-THE collapse of the defense of Ant
werp after siege of only eleven days--we are led
very naturally to the conclusion that there is no
longer such thing an 'impregnable" fortress.
War is always a dspeller of illusions and in the
present instance it has shattered belief which had
been held not only by mankind in ordinary, but
by those expert in the science of military defense
F1anIed and girdled with double, even triple lines
of forts redoubts batteries and all the obstructves
known to military invention, this Gibraltar of the
Scheldt had been classed among the worlds i'm
pregnable" strongholds by many generation. An
ancient center of civilization and a depository for
famous objects of art and industry, such thing
as socitude for the citys safety had been unknown
in recent times
1t is the hitherto undemonstrated potency of the
big guns and the new shells made at Essen which
has discredited the impregnability of Antwerp and
every other similarly fortified point on the globe.
1t has been made apparent to those who know
little nothing of military engineering that the
theory of fortified ceEters has received blow from
which it is not likely to recover until something
which will resist the pounding of these apenetrat
ing Krupps shall be devised Even the most modern
systems of defense proof against these crush
ing weapons of ofense Their carrying power and
accuracy of aim make them more than a match
for any form of artificial obstruction known to mill
tary engineers.
Progress in the art of military defense has not
kept pace with the enterprise and initiative of the
gunmakers. The time has come when fortified
center, albeit the product of exhaustive effort the
part of it designers, cannot be regarded as safe
hiding place for bcleaguered garrison or as fit
depository for whose loss would mpoverish
the entire world of art
Fertilization, of course suggests the probability of
attack, and even invites II. q am here ready and
waiting; come and get if you can" is the prin-
cple involved There is some reason to believe that
this invitation will be less spontaneous than it was
before the recent demonstration at Liege Namur
and Antwerp of the tremendous destructive power of
the Krupp shells and siege guns. In future,
also, far less dependence will be put the staying
qualities of the 'impregnable' fortress

When it comes to equipment and efficiency in sub
