Dealings with the Germans.

Even il England had dealt fairly
with her German customers. few OF
them would use the London market in
the future. as they nave done in the
past. for that market is losing It's in
ternational influence. But England has
despoled them ruthlessly. She has
confiscated the acceptances foF which
they had paid; she forced the COM
panies they owned into the hands of the
receiver, wantonly destroying their
value in many cases; she robbed them
Of their patents; she contiscated tie
capital they had invested in British
securities and in neutral securities list
ed in London. She has adopted to
dealings on land the law Of seizure Of
private property. which up TO now was
restricted to naval warfare. 1t may be
possible for shrewd lawyers TO produce
arguments WHY such action was quite
fair. That will not help the London of
the future. The Germans and the Aus
TRANS, who have been despoiled once,
will not wish to repeat their experience.
especially if they are assured by COM
petent lawyers that what was done to
them was right and fair.
A large stream OF German savings
has always gone TO London for invest.
mcnt and in international securities.
South American securities. for example.
were regularly subscribed in London
by Germans. And Englsnd's own over
sea development was greatly helped by
German capital. The promoters of the
Canadian Pacific Railroad found their
early supporters In Germany. The
builders of the great South African
empire drew freely on German financial
brain and on German financial coopera-
ton. German capital has cooperatcd

Conclusions.

A review of German war finance
brings out clearly the following points:
First-At least four-hfths of Ger
many's war debts have been placed
with permanent, investors at home. No
floating debt OF unwieldy size is threat
ening her future prosperity as il is
that Of her enemies. The rate Of in
terest she is paying is lower than the
rate OF the Allies. England included.
Second-The partially successful
blockade has made the Central Powers
in economic matters practically self
supporting. German business life has
been organized in such way as to set
free at regular intervals tho funds

splendid qualities, internatlonalism Is
not a British gift.
These links have snapped once Tor
all. not on account of the war. but be-
cause England carried the war against
the private property of every German
and Austrian citizen and Of every neu-
trail living in the British Empire. And
no country can be the centre Of future
international finance which has failed
once in its obligations, as England did
when the war began. No amount oil
talk will do away with the fact that
England not only stopped payments IN
gold, but that she stopped all payments

look.
But once having accepted gray hail

often. Use only the best and purest
liquid soap. as free from alkali as pos.

rinsings to get rid Of every particle Of
