Morgan was picked as the allies
munition chief because they recogniz-
ed his standing as the foremost mas.
ter-of-money IN America. They know
that Morgan had the money and the
influence and the nerve TO perfect
an organization in America that
would give them the capital and the
shells they had to have.
They knew that with his steel mills
railroads. steamships and banks, he
could make and deliver the goods
And they let him make his own terms.
SO that Morgan, drilled from boy.
hood in the making OF money, couldn't
help piling up millions and billions

One of the latest evidences Of the
friendly attitude of the railroads in
adopting appliances to insure every
safety and comfort to the traveller is
the development and use Of an auto
matte train stop. This latest word in
safety has been accomplished on the
Chicago and Eastern Illinois railroad,
and so quietly has this work been
done that only a few people outside
the railroad world realize that a safe
tv appliance minimizing the possibil'
tiles OF collisions on railroads has
been successfully developed.

the prospective profits of the com
pany had been buried in this junk
pile. An agent OF the allies saw this
pile and offered 100000 for it, His
bid was accepted right off the bait
Now the stock Of this company, which
was worth between $4,000 600 ard
$4,000. 000 before the war, is quoted
around 100000 on the stock eX-
change,
The president o. another company
looked at his paper one afternoon
and discovered the stock was shoot
ing up. 1t puzzled him. The next
afternoon the stock was up some
more. 1t kept on rising for three
weeks. Then he got an order from
the Morgan house for certain muLi-
tions. The explanation was that Nor
gan's insiders" knew the company
was to get this war order and had
been trading in the stock on margins,
cleaning up, probably, a few millions.
That's why Morgan doesn't yet
know how much he's worth. Every
upward rocketing of his war stocks,
every increased profit of his NILS,
all the added tonnage on his rail
roads, every trip of his Atlantic
steamships. adds to his mounting mil
ions. And on top of this
Fees. Fees, Fees,
others Who Win.
Morgan isn't the only magic money
king this war is making. Schwab
has cleaned up millions; Carnegie is
coming millions; every large holder
of war stocks is seeing his fortune
increased before his eyes. Gamblers
in the stock market have netted IN
told sums by booming war stocks
following the Morgan lead.
But these millionaires are small
fry by comparison. They don't count.
]. P. Morgan transcends them all.
He is the richest man on the earthly
planet.

MAKING THE
3 S OF 1T.

II MAS inevitable. perhaps. thai
Carranza should be Acknowledged as
the read Of The Mexican government,
as soon as lie showed himself incon-
powerfully the strongest figure in
Mexico, and gave assurance thai the
rights of foreign nations would be re.
spected under his regime. Carranza's
superiority i'll military prestige and
strength is today conceded by every
one, and he is said to have given the
Pan-American governments the assur-
ances they required.
The situation isn't calculated to give
unalloyed pleasure TO any OF these
governments. There is no love Tor
Carranza either at Washington or at
any OF the important Latin-American
capitals. The y Is & powers were. a
shor time ago, more thoroughly op.
posed 10 the arrogant old Don than
was President Wilson himself. though
for n different reason. Our govern.
ment was irritateL by Carranza's con.
tinual liouting OF American rights and
dignity, though in sympathy with the
principles he possessed. The \ Ii {
governments had been given less
cause OF ofGense than the United Stat.
es, but were hostile to his radical
policies.
Altogether, 1t Is simply making the
best OF a bad situation. Carranza, at
least, does not owe his power TO as,
"sassination, Is Huerta did; he has Il
definite theory and program of govern
ment; and he has shown will power
which Madero lacked. He is a stub
born, arrogant old man who may turn
tyrant; but he is the most available
man in a country which, but for him,
"fers M hope Of escape from death
all destruction. Recognition OF him
may help 10 hasten the shaving pro
cess.
In agreeing to recognize CarranZa
the administration seems TO have beer
influenced strongly by tile Latin-Amcr
lean governments. And that Is prop
or enough. Our interests in Mexico
are greater than theirs, but they are
better qualified than we to understand
the McXicans and their needs. Thu
agreement of the Yankees and the
Latins in this matter is another i'm
portant step in the development of the
new Pan-Americdnism.

WHAT
WON

a NEW YORK philosopher has beer
observing IN in the subway and
at the movies, with a special view TO
finding what measure of interest they
have in public events.
In h subway he noticed that while
80 men out of every 100 are reading
newspapers, only 4 women in a hun.
dred are doing so. There were 80
women in 100 reading novels and story.
books II 4 reading magazines; 60
per cent Of them were gazing into the
air. The 4 per cent occupied with
newspapers found only the bargain
and women's pages interesting"
hen he visited a moving picture
show. When silly love pictures" were
shown, the women seemed to enjoy
them immensely. But as soon as won
derful historical pictures and scenes
of the big outside world were thrown
Oh the screen, he heard women all
around him murmuring. These pic
lures make me tired" That's silly"
and That stuff is disgusting" Many
of then walked out of the theater.
The men, on the contrary, we're keen
ly interested in such scenes
From which the philosopher infers
that before those women are ready for
the ballot, they must develop a new
set of interests.
And as n matter of fact. is any
woman, in New York or anywhere else,
properly equipped to vote If she
doesn't read the news and isn't in
terested in news pictures? Or any
man, either, for that matter?

FEW newspaper readers appreciate
the pains 10 which editors go to veri-
~ the news they print. They don't
succeed all the time. and in fact sci.
dom succeed in being wholly veraci-

chiefly TO the practicable impossibility
OF getting absolutely accurate reports
OF events, even from e~ye-witnesses.

recognize this difficulty. When re.

especially when persons not trained as
reporters are depended on. the chanc.

The New York World two years ago
