the abolition or at least the modllca-
ton of old systems. Throughout Eu-
rope propagandsts are spreading the
doctrine that, no matter what the Is
sue of the struggle, the people must
demand that they be accorded fuller
participation in government activities.
j Last year the total Indebtedness
of the nations now at war amounted
to about $24, 000,0OO,OO0. Since that
time approximately 81 900 100000 has
been added to the burden. This situa-
ton has given rise to the fear in some
quarters that Europe will soon be on
a basis so obviously paper that gov
ernment bonds will have slight value.
1t has even been suggested by radicals
that the entire credit system may col
lapse, a sort of financial and COM
mercial anarchy holding sway for a
season.
"These statements may well be con-
sidered visionary, but European stu
dents of finance are taking some cog
nizance of them. The plan proposed
is designed to combat such a tendency.
1t is shown that with the governments
monopolizing in the name of the peo-
pie, the great industrial activities of
the several states, government credit
would be much dearer TO the hearts
of those people than it would be if
trusted to few ond-floating banking
houses. Thus the plan would prevent
the collapse of the present system by
harnessing the very forces which un-
der other circumstances possibly
would bring about collapse.
an the United States the tendency
toward the government ownership Of
great industries has been shown by
the support given Mr. McAdoo's ship
ping bill. The Pan-American shipping
combine proposed at the recent Pan
American financial conference al
Washington is but another exemplfi-
cation of this tendency.
"There is a bill in Congress-, which
shall come up at the next session, pro-
viding for the operation by this gov
eminent of a great trading company,
designed to compete with private con
Germs in the coastwise and foreign
trade. The bill provides, not only for
the transportation, but for the manu-
featuring and selling of products by
the government These are among the
strong measures sought to be taken
by neutral power. Perhaps it is 10

will go further.
