 importers and manufacturers who have existing obligations to meet abroad
 But it will do more than this-it will stimulate confidence. Merchants manu- lecturers and others will be the more willing to undertake fresh enterprises and to push their markets both abroad and in this country The effect in principle will be similar to that which followed the enactment of the emergency currency law. For after that act became law every business man knew that there was no longer danger of currency famine. Therefore he would venture to renew and increase his business activities
 Another Feature
 Another feature associated with this financial diplomacy is the presumable early resumption of exports and in enor- nous quantities. England is certain to buy greatly of American products, not only food but manufactured commodities. The establishment of this great commer- cial fund should facilitate our commer- cial and business operations in South
 
 of the war in Europe are sure to be some what depressing on world business, yet the immediate effect of this fund of $780, O00000 for commercial purposes will very likely be followed, for sometime at least, by great activity in the business world of the United States.
 Another Undertaking
 When this plan Is completed and is in operation 1t is possible that there will be perfected another piece of financial diplo- macy of great importance. Already plans are under consideration for the ere ation of syndicate which will be pledged to underwrite the American securities re- gently sold and now waiting delivery, or. in other words, this great syndicate will take from individuals. or private parties. the burden of absorbing these stocks and securities Then, again, 1t is a part of the plan that in case 1t be found expedi- ent to open the stock exchange the gov ernors shall make and enforce a rule by which dealing upon the floor of the ex- change in American securities offered for sale in foreign markets is prohibited un- til conditions are normal. A rule of that kind would 1t Is presumed. prevent the dumping of American securities upon the home market.
