hollands Ways,

Sea fishing is one OF Hollands prin-
cipal industries. and large fleets OF
sturdy looking fishing boats are seen
at the seaside villages and hamlets. SO
no doubt this and the almost amphibi-
Gus life the Dutchman leads among
his canals and bitches account toe
the popularity of the fishing rod and
line. The country villages with their
white and green painted houses and
pretty gardens are made more attrnc-
tive by the survival In Holland of the
picturesque old time costumes OF the
people. Quaint linen headdresses and
numerous ample skirts mark the

BANKERS CALM
IN VIEW OF WAR
Declare American Institutions
Sound, Grain Crops I'm
mense, Gold Supply Large.

Chicago. ILL.,, Aug. Chicago bank
ers declared that the United
I States need have no fear of immed-
late harmful results from the European
war crisis.
i II was pointed out that American in
situations were sound. that the country
was moving, or about to move, an i'm
mense< grain crop, and that the United
States had double the amount of gold
Of any other country.
Closing of stock exchange was up
held by banking officials as a move
ment of great wisdom. No other course
was possible, they said, pointing out
that if the exchanges had remained
open they would have been made the
dumping ground for European securi-
ties.
American business is likely to profit
from the war, it was said. Other coun-
tries must come here to meet their
needs.
General business conditions are, of
course, depressed throughout the
world" said George NJ. Reynolds, presi-
dent of the Continental and CONNER
cial National bank. Measured by other
countries, however, America is well
off Conditions in Europe have Gre
ated general excitement. but 1 do not
see that we in America should be
troubled. Our institutions are sound.
We produce or manufacture every
thing we need. We do not depend up
on other nations for our supply of any
thing; on the contrary, other countries
must come to us.
I'VE will have the profit. Our labor
will be employed and our mills run
ming. In this way the war ought to
benefit us. It will tighten the money
rate generally. In England it already
has gone up to s per cent and here to
G..
Closing of stock exchanges was
wise. 1t will protect our supply of gold
and keep it from being taken away to
other lands through the sale here of
foreign securities. The war, to my
mind. will not have an evil effect here
upon general business"

RECALL OF RESERVISTS
MAY VIOLATE u. S. LAWS

Washington, Aug. strenuous eff
forts being made by Austria and Ser.
via to recall from the United States for
military service the many thousands
of their citizens who are employed in
American factories have attracted off
cial attention. The question has been
raised whether such activities are be-
ing carried beyond the limits prescrib-
ed by the neutrality laws.
Advertisements have appeared in
many American newspapers calling
upon the reservists and other Aus
TRANS and Servians eligible for military
duty to return to their Netherlands for
service and offering money for their
transportation.
The neutrality laws not only forbid
the departure of armed expeditions
from the United States directed against
friendly nation, but enlistments are
specifically prohibited.
The individual foreigner is left free
to make his way as an individual out
OF the country. but extension to him of
aid in the shape of passage money and
expenses and any attempt to direct his
movements to certain rendezvous in a
foreign country is believed by some
officials to be of questionable legality
and akin to enlistment.
1t is recalled that in 1856 during the
Crimean war Secretary Marcy expell-
ed British Minister Champion from the
United States because he was concern
ed in the enlistment of recruits within
the United States for service in the
British army.
These recruits were directed to Hall
fax through consuls at New York.
