usually has been a period of money strain in the past.
 With war which already has been in progress more than a year, cost | ing Great Britain on an average $17,- ] 500,000 day and the other warning | countries proportionate am cunts, it is ! obvious that capital is being wasted at | a rate even after the war has ended will require many years to gradually | restore. The credits already voted for war purposes by the British House | of Commons amount for instance to the almost incom prehensible sum of $6,31O, 100000, and the end of the war I unfortunately is still apparently well into the future. These figures con- tain the clear lesson that for years to come there necessarily must be a scarcity of capital for the former European creditor nations to invest in the development of the resources of weaker countries such for instance as the South American republics and even the broad areas of China and Russia and Africa. America will be called upon to assume the task for which our wealth and energy and genius so peculiarly fit us. No other source is available. Having reached maturity in our own financial stature, we must at once undertake our obli- gations to weaker nations. In this respect banking and manufacturing and transportation go hand in hand. Where our bankers supply the funds for building railroads, our locomo motive works and car manufacturers will fur nish the rolling stock and our steel companies the steel rails and bridges and our colleges the engineers. If Congress can be induced to correct our navigation laws American ships will carry our exports to these nations and will bring in our imports from them. What is true of railroad de- velopment will apply to other branch es of activities such as public untili- ties, building construction and the numerous other avenues for enter prise that so readily suggest tnem- selves.
 Postwar Development.
 Here then is a postwar develop ment that means much in the future to the industrial energies of our coun- try and to the railroads and other transportation agencies that will be called upon to move the inbound and outbound products of our farms and factories and mines. The picture Is one that thoughtful men will in time be disposed to discount by purchases of securities of the corporations thae of necessity must participate in this great extension of the nations busi- ness that is so bound to ensue. It is of course a factor in which the future market more than the medi ate one is concerned. But 1t is none the less important.
