OPPORTUNITY AFFORDED FOR TRADE
EXPANSION

The present general interruption OF commu
nication between European and all other nations
has raised in the United States the interesting
question of rcadjustment OF world trade. We
find a newspaper devoted largely to commercial
interests appealing TO American manufacturers
and exporters to hasten to supply the needs o
those countries that mus, in the nature OF things
be otherwise neglected a paragraph IN the ap

position OF complete neutrality Our commerce
and manufacture will be uninterrupted II is our
duty as we'll as our supreme opportunity TO care

In New York. Boston and other cities indus

mercantile nations Of Europe are at war the United

the foreign exchange market today. there n' m
fact by force OF circumstances general move

while commerce OF the warning nations - sus.

Perhaps II should be said that previous to the
outbreak OF the war the interested European ma
tons had strong limitations from this SIDE that a
resort to hostilites would be hazardous TO their
commercial prestige. II cannot be charged that
the business interests Of the United States have ~
any way contributed toward the bringing about OF
