THEY NEED CASH AND CREDIT

Isere has been rather meager newspaper report of the pro ee-dirSs of the Pau-American con ference, but from such report as we have <ne fact, or rather, one need' is emphasized. The South American countries to which we are looking as offering a new field for trade need cash and credit. They have had both from Europe and the sup ply is cut off. Will the United States supply 1t?
 We have the cash. Our bank statements are a sufficient warrant for that. The credit is. a matter of confidence and a matter of belief i'll the field to which 1t is proposed to extend it. If it is to be extended it must be by reason of a more .famil- jar knowledge of that field and the people who do business in it and are to be accommodated. How we may gain that knowledge is the inter esting and practical consideration.
 We cannot do it through the Pan American conference itself, nor through the original journeyings abroad of the representatives of big interests and great promotion bodies. All these will help to the ultimate end, but if the real knowl- edge that will be seryiceable to the South Americans and to ourselves mes at all, individual business in this country must take a chance, and conduct its investigations and reach it's own conclusions more or loss on it's own hook.
 To American business the South American trade is an adventure, just as much as seeking gold in Alaska--with this difference, that i: has proved profitable to Euro pean manufacturers and merchants who by stress of circumstances must now abandon 1t. It Is field that has been worked and in the working the value of it has been demonstrated. But as Ameri- can business goes in to that same field it must be willing to take the business risk and pay the expense Of it's own pioneering and initial soliciting of trade. Undoubtedly the reward will be great, but it is not to be handed to the American business man on a silver platter.

ANOTHER STAR FOR THE FLAG

An American Rhodes scholar working in Belgium under the direction of the Red Cross associa- tion, writes to a friend in this coun- try: You have had .forty-eight stars in your flag; but now you will have forty-nine, because. you must add one for Belgium"
 The foregoing is written as an expression of Belgium sentiment to be found on every hand. It con- Yeys to this country the feryency of Belgian gratitude for the work of brotherly love that Americans have done in that stricken country.
 Frequently this great nation is Complimented by notables abroad or from abroad; and the terms of the compliment usually run to our national aggrandizement, our achievements in industry, in trade, in science and research, in the building of cities and the con struction of railroads and canals. The burden of the praise has to .oo with our material greatness and with the national intellect and morality essential to it. But this student-conveyed praise from Bel gium $ of a different type.
 Misery relieved pays its tribute of gratitude; and the very nature of the tribute itself brings home to us the character of the service that has been rendered. It Is a tribute to American humanity. We should b more proud of 1t than of cities built, or railroads or canals con structed, or in any of the achieve meuts that have brought us materia grandeur and fame.
 A new star to the flag is a figure well chosen. The praise implied adds new luster to the Am erlcan name.-Portland Telegram.

Tho Origin Of "t3urrah."

The word ''hurrah" Is pure Slavo-
MAN and is commonly heard from the
coast OF Dalmatta to Bering strait
when any OF the population living
within these limits Is called on to give
proof of courage and valor. The orr
gin of the word belongs to the primi-
tive idea that every man that dies
heroically for his country goes straight
to heaven-Hu.ray. to paradise and
in the shock and ardor OF battle the
combatants utter that cry, as the
Turks do that of ''Allah?' each animal

date recompense to forget earth ana
to contemn death.
