The effect OF Europe's war on
American finance seems certain
10 be direct and probably by no
means remote. The CONSEQUENCE,
which We may expect wild arise
primarily from causes incident TO
the war and. secondariiy. from
conditions which have long been
developing in the United States.
The earlier of the results should
be financial disturbance affect
ing the entire country. but telt
permanently in the East rather
than in the West The ultimate
outcome should be the reConstruc-
ton OF our present financial sys-
TEN and the establishment OF a
score of independent financial
centers, located in our more
densely populated communities.
IL Is inevitable that the Allies
must come TO US for another large
credit-not less than half a billion
dollars-on or before the first OF
March. 1916. The American
people will be wise If. when thew
consider their subscriptions to
such a loan, they will decide
whether or not such subscriptions
shall be made as contributions TO
"a cause that has their sympathy
and approval They will be IN
wise. If they take part in the loan
as a business investment. An an
investment, the second loan. like
the first. must become insecure
from the hour when the stability
OF British credit is threatened.
Inc war cost is a drain upon
Brltain's resources so enormous
that the flotation of this second
loan Is certain TO be a matter OF
the utmost difficulty. If not of
doubt. Should the attempts 10
create it fail. Great Britain's
credit viii have failed also. The
breaking point OF the worlds
hnauce - and necessarily of
American finance. now heavily in
Nolved by the first credit OF half
a billion dollars-may be expected
when exchange for the British
pound shall have dropped thirty
per cent. below par. If indeed the
financial burden can be sustained
so FAR as that low level OF depre-
citation.
II IS conceivable that the war
may end without the disaster. But

New York reckoned that $4,000
as so much New York capital.
The fact was. however. that in
stead Of being New York capital.
II was New York liability and
Oklahoma capital. How vital and
serious a liability Il had grown
10 De nearly ten years ago was
SHOWN during the financial strin-
Eency OF 1907 when the New York
banks refused to remit to the
West the deposits their owners
demanded. How complete the
change has been within twenty
years was evidenced in the flota-
uon OF the recent half billion
credit OF the Allies. Had that
credit been wanted in 1895, a lead
ing New York banking house
would have merely announced the
bonds to New York and Eastern
investors would have taken them
up This year the Western banks
were invited TO share in the opera

ask them, but because they had TO
