One Authority Now Inti- mates That War May Not
 End for Ten Years
VIEWS OF EFFECT
 ON AMERICAN TRADE
Some Believe That the Europeans Will Be Unable to Compete Keenly With Americans
 for Many Years
By HOLLAND

New York February (Special.)-A
 banker of London, E. Mckay Edgar, as- sociated with large bank in London, who is now in New York, was quoted, 8 day or two ago, as having said that in Belgium almost all of the manufacturing plants have been destroyed. For that req son Belgium must, after the war is end ed, approach the United States for the purpose of securing many commodities, especially building material This state ment confirms one which was made few days ago by representatives of Bel gium who were sent to the United States for the purpose of making inquiries re- specting prices and the time of delivery of manufactured commodities, especially lumber, which. if bought and sent to Belgium, will be used in the attempt tc restore her industrial plants and build ings. These representatives told of the imperative need in Belgium for doors, saying that Belgium would be prepared, if prices and time of delivery were sat isfactory, to buy about 3OO0oO doors in the United States.
 It was observed by those who talked with these representatives of Belgium that they were in grave doubt about an early termination of the war. They thought three years might pass. possibly five, before the war is ended. This state ment has also been confirmed by MT. Edgar he going even farther than the Belgium representatives by saying that possibly the war will last 10 years. He bases that opinion upon the belief now prevalent among the belligerent nations that the war will be fought to finish.

TWO POINTS OF VIEW

There are two points of view, one of them that of everybody, especially the leaders in the world of business affairs, and the other that of a minority re- specting the trade situation in the United States and our trade with other countries after the European war is ended The opinion of the majority was voiced the other day by Frank A. Vanderlip, who did not hesitate to say that he feels
 sure that a trade battle severer and greater than any that has heretofore taken place will begin immediately after the close of the war. Tn that battle the United States will be one of the leading participants. This point of view was also taken in an address delivered last week before the Chamber of Commerce at Washington, and it Is the view commonly held by the leaders in industry and com merce.
 The minority view has been voiced within few days by MT. Edgar. He says that the view of those in England who are well informed is that the ex- haustion due to the belligerentS to initiate a world -encompassing trade struggle Possibly his words may be needed al Washington, where some ap- prehension has been expressed lest the United States become the dumping ground for European manufactures. It will be, in his view, many years before this country will be the dumping ground for European commodities, be- cause at least a half generations time must pass before any of these coun- tries will be in position to undertake a competitive trade struggle.
 One of those who came since early autumn of last year from England to the United States said to a partner in an international banking house whose relations with Germany and France are very important and large, that he thought the American people did not fully realize what the prosperity which has come and is to come to them as a result of the conflict in Europe really is and what it is to do.
 In answer to that statement, this man was told that in all probability the leading men in affairs across the sea are getting a better perspective, so far as the United States is concerned, than our own people are We are so near these momentous transactions and in- fuences, standing face to face with them, that it is impossible fully to ap- preciate them. Nevertheless, this bank CT was inclined to think that in many parts of the country-not all-there be- gins to be a realization of what, if the people of the United States are pru- dent. the conflict in Europe is to mean to them. There is one sentimental view which is sometimes expressed, and that is that it is with proper pride that the people appreciate the fact that the United States will be in position to aid the nations across the sea which have suffered so greatly by reason of the |

NO NEED TO

Tells How to Make Hair Grow Thick
and lustrous on Bald and Thin Spots
Thousands of people who note with
alarm the steady falling and thinning
Of their hair and have tried nearly
every advertised hair grower and hair
tonic without success, fear the time
when they shall be totally bald. Yet
their case is not hopeless if they will
adopt the following simple hair drill
recommended by a prominent hair
specialist. and daily massage their
scalp with a little genuine Partisan
Sage in the liquid form.
First, massage The scalp with me.
dunn stiff hair brush, to. start good
blood circulation: then part the hair
and pour little of the Sage on the
bare scalp and rub in vigorously with
the thumb and finger tips. Go over
the entire head in this manner until
the scalp tingles.
This will only take a few minutes
daily, and can be done just before
going 10 bed. 4 few ounces Of Partisan
Sage used in this manner should pre-.
vent any further loss of hair and cause
Il new hair growth 10 appear on the
thin spots.
This preparation is highly recon-
mended by c. H. Griest Co., and is
absolutely harmless, as 1t contains
none of the poisonous wood alcohol, or
the sulphur. so frequently found in
ordinary hair toncs. Partisan Sage
will not make the hair greasy, and can
be obtained at drug and toilet counters
everywhere.
