Business Men
WAR CUTS OFF
AMERICAN PROFIT

That the United States-not South
Americas the most promising field
for business men and manufacturers
is the statement contained in the Oc-
tober business bulletin of the Nation
al Bank Of Delaware The statement
contains the following.
1T is unnecessary for us to report to
our clients that business during the
past few weeks has been unsatisfac-
tory and in small volume. The change
In business due to the European war
has been evident to every business
man, but while we have general
knowledge Of the decline in business,
It is necessary to the proper planning
Of our future moves to be definitely
informed on the actual trade depres-
sion in the various fundamental lines
and to get a clear understanding as to
which Of these lines will recover first
and which ones will ultimately bene-
fit from present upset conditions.
"The larger part of the newspaper
space devoted to commercial possi-
bilities has been given over to the
prospective increase of our South
American trade. South America i'm
ports approximately a billion dollars
worth of goods a year and II is un-
likely that this country could get
more than one-fourth or one-half of
the total under any conditions. Our 1914
exports to South America were 147
million dollars and our imports from
there 1913 millions. IL would not be
a difficult matter for US to increase
our exports 90 millions to Offset the
balance Of trade against us last year
as this would necessitate no further
provision as to credits. Exports in
excess of that amount would require
financing, which would be difficult, al
though branches Of American banks
now provided for would assist ma
terialIy. European countries which
have enjoyed the South American
trade have provided the money as well
as the goods and If this country ex-
poets to increase its South American
trade to any great degree, 1t must be
ready to finance public works. public
service corporations and merchandis-
ing institutions in those countries.
South America needs money as much
as she needs merchandise and she
lacks a substantial credit system.
Leading business men are OF the
opinion that the great trade oppor-
tunity for American manufacturers
and merchants is in North America
Trade possibilities in Canada and
Mexico are large but the greatest pos
sibilities lie within the boundaries Of
the United States.

tribunal OF earth, by the permission
Of Glod-blessed be He--and by the
permission of this holy congregation
we hold 1t lawful to pray with the
transgressors.
This prayer, chanted to the quaint
and 'plaintive melody of ages at sun
down last night in every synagogue
and improvised synagogue in the
world, from every battlefield and bat
teship, ushered in the most solemn
day Of the Jewish year-Yom Haki-
purim, or the Day Of Atonement.
This year the day, hallowed as 1t
Is by centuries Of devout observance
despite all obstacles, has an added
Significance. For from the throats
of 100000 Jews there went forth
the first unanimous prayer since the
great cataclysm for a restoration Of
peace on earth and good will to men.
Here, in America, where none was
directly affected, the synagogues re-
sounded with weeping and wailing,
for thousands of those who offered
the prayer recalled the members Of
their families, particularly in Russia
and Galicia, who have already fallen
or who are still on the firing line. In
the belligerent lands it caused pros
tration and hysteria, for IL came from
the hearts of the wounded and the
mourners; It came from the fathers
and mothers as we'll as from wives
and children of those on the battle
fields.
The prayer quoted above is the one
with which the services began. 1t is
called Kol Nidre, from the initial two
words. A few minutes before sunset
on the eve of the Day of Atonement
when the congregation has gathered

With this service also began the
fast, which will last until sundawn
tonight. The Orthodox Jews observe
this fast so vigorously that they will
not even taste water in the entire
"a hours. Many Of them spend the
entire time in the synagogue, using
the time In which they ordinarily
sleep in the recitation of the Psalms
anu IN Otner special prayers.
The fast will be broken by the blast
Of the shoffar, or the long blow from
the rams horn, after the final service
at sundown tonight.

RAILWAY PASSES
Nearly 100000 Will Be Fur
nished to Agents and
Employees.

Sioux City, March 25.-As a fur
Their carrying out OF a new policy of
western railroads in giving annual
passes to employees, which was put
into effect January 1, this year be-
tween $4,000 and 100000 passes
will be distributed within the next
few weeks, according to reports
from railway offices.
This time the free annual tickets
will go into a new field-to ticket
agents and assistants and their
wives. These employees exert the
most direct influence upon traffic.
and the policy OF the roads now is to
stimulate their enthusiasm for their
lines by bestowing pass favors.
The Milwaukee and Burlington
railroads have been leaders in the
giving out of passes. The move is
in effect a recantation of railroad
policies during the last decade which
have tended more and more to re-
strict the pass privilege. Lines have
taken advantage of state laws de-
signed to prevent political corruption
and have cut down passes to many
employees. They became especially
parsimonious with regard to annual
passes.
Most of the passes given out SO
far this year have been on divisions
east of the Mississippi river, but 1t
is planned to extend the same favors
to Missouri valley divisions.
Distribution Of annual passes
January l came as a surprise to
many employees, who had made no
request for the transportation that
the generosity was being considered.
! At that time passes were given to
