Brazil has met the situation brought about
through the inability to noat new loans by provid
Ing Tor new Issue Of paper currency In addition
to the abundant volume which already is in cir.
culation. Time may demonstrate the wisdom or
the unwisdom of this action an emergency
measure. but It shows the decentralization that the
European war has caused.
South American public men and the diplomatic
representatives OF the different governments in
Washington who know how great the dependence
has been Europe and who understand fully
the fiscal status OF their respective countries In
evitably turn their eyes to the United States, and
Il is through them that the query comes to
whether the United States supply few hun
dred millions capital.
The answer which may be given to the question
will determine whether the United States is to
obtain commercial supremacy and to dominate
South America financially.
European fnanciers who until the New York
Stock exchange closed getting gold by
unloading American securities in their look ahead
are now doubtless revolving the same question
Whist the United States may do in the way OF
financing South America. To them the question
takes the fern OF query: Whether any OF the
81 O0O. 100000 indebtedness OF the South American
governments be shifted to the United States,
and II so how and under what terms?
Two billion dollars represents in round numbers
what the South American countries owe n the
form of public debts. What may be called the ma
tionS debts do not foot up this sum. but the mu-
nicipal and state provincial debts, some OF
which are not guaranteed by the national govern
ment, bring up the total.
All the South American countries have had the
borrowing habit Some OF the weaker and more
reckless ones have given the whole continent
bad name Yet the truth is that in view OF re.
sources and natural wealth and the rapid develop
ment that has been going $4,000 100000 is nc
an extTavagant public debt total.
II will be found, moreover that the very large
proportion of the debts has been created by the
countries which are solvent and which scrupulous-
ly their obligations.
Since the international imbroglio. in which the
United States took hand Venezuela has been
paying on its debt until now the total amount
outstanding is less than $4,000 900.
Colombia has what is known as consolidated
debt, which does not exceed s2i,OO0OO0 The
country has managed to meet the interest in a
manner to satisfy even the critical British foreign
bondhoders committee. Colombia, whether It
gets the s25, 1000 900 Panama gratuity from the
United States not wants general loan of
something like s50,0000O0 to build rail ways and
rehabilitate the country generally.
Ecuador has n public debt not exceeding $780,

Two years ago the Argentine debt
was approximately 1857 900. 900. A
year later 1t had risen nominaiiy
to $7s2. .0oo.o
Something more than year ago
Argentina sought to float a new
loan in France. but the conditions
we're unfavorable. A new loan on
the same basis would doubtless
still be desirable, but the Arsen'
tine government would look to
New York rather than to Paris or
London for funds.
Brazil's various debt issues now
approximate $6s0.0o0,000. There
have been loans for public I'M
proyements and other objects.
Brazil, as a vast country. greater
in size than the United States. with
undeveloped resources the extent
of which is not yet known, has
been a free borrower.
Within the last year there have
been various propositions for new
loans to take up the old ones. 1t
is not likely that any Brazilian loan
can now be fioated in Europe and
none is therefore likely to be
sought by the government. Later.
