NO OLYMPIC GAMES IN I9I6
Baron Pierre de Coubern, President of the International Game Says Four Cities Have Expressed Wish for Games in 192O-Germans and Austrians May Not be Invitedto Compete.

Paris. April 10. 4.45 p. m.-Baron Pierre de CoubeFtin, president of the international Olympic games commit tee, stated today to The Associated Press that no Olympic games would be held during the present year, or while the war lasted. He also supplemented the announcement with some interest ing details.
 Though there will be no Olympic games in 1916, or during the war;" said the baron, preparations for the games in 1920 are being made so far as pos sible. Four cities already have ex- pressed a wish to have the 1920 Olym- pic games held within their precincts, namely, Antwerp, Lyons, Amsterdam and Havana.
 Tn the last named capital the ap- p1ication is about to be made, or has been made, to the Cuban congress for 5000, 900 francs on account of the pre- dminary expenses alone. Antwerp al- ready had signifed desire to have the games held there before the war Since the outbreak of the war the city has repeated the request and the bur gomaster has received a letter from King Albert of Belgium congratulat- ing it on the fact.
 ''The meeting of the international committee planned to be held at Venice has of course fallen through and there will be no meeting of the committee u1Cll the war IS over.
 Baron de Blonai, member of the committee, to whom have temporari- ly delegated executive authority, has pointed out in the Swiss newspapers that if sports had been held in Berlin as stated in the papers they could not have been of an international charac- ter"
 Asked if he thought it likely that the sportsmen of the entente allies coun- tries would be willing to compete with Germans and Austro- Hungarians in 1920, Baron de Coubertin said:
 Tt is impossible to say what the state of international feeling will be four years hence. IL is possible that Germans and Austrians may not be invited to participate"

trade of this country has increased In a
world Of relaxing trade restrictions. the
report says that II either the allied or
the Central economic alliance seek by
differential tariffs to prefer zach other. a
discrimination against the products of
the United States Is bound to be created.
That more treaty making will be In
progress In the five years after the war
than In any similar period OF the worlds
history Is the forecast made. In this re-
spect II Is pointed out that a OF OUR
treaties with foreign powers are ancient
and out Of tune with modern ideas and
therefore the State Department should
Immediately provide skilled resources for
the study Of the situation.
Regarding the allied policy Of direct
subsidy to foreign trade, the report says A.
The recovery Of q portion OF the
American gold reserve which supports an
unprecedented structure Of domestic and
foreign credit Is essential to the restora-
ton Of European prosperity after the
wal and this would logically seem to be
one effect Of the economic alliances now
being devised and and the plans being
laid for more intensive competition
which will bring back the trade which
ton and competition has given American
merchandise a greater access to Euro
pean markets and q larger share Of neu-
trail markets.
"A violent reversal Of the flow Of gold
would rudely disturb the structure Of
domestic ban credits reared upon 1t.
The primary safeguard must be a stimu-
lation Of exports Of the merchandise re-
quired In peace to take the place OF the
abnormal demand for munitions and alb
normal export Of other articles. A dimi-
mutton Of our present inflated export
trade Is Inevitable, but the danger il
that European cooperation and trade
preferences may he carried so far as
artifcially to restrain American foreign
trade and carry II below our normal
equity in world commerce"

Campaign Started by John
Muir Receives Approval
Of Savings Banks.

The campaign recently inaugurated by
John Muir Of John Muir & Co. to bring
Investors together to obtain mutual pro-
lection against the possible effects OF re-
cent railroad legislation Is meeting with
great success. Not only have responses
been received from more than $500
stockholders in railroad companies. but
officers Of savings banks have given the
movement their hearty approval.
A plan IL now under consideration
whereby the savings banks throughout
the country will cooperate with the com-
mittee in informing their depositors that
unless specific assurance Is obtained that
provision will be made for the protec-
tion of the net earnings OF the railroads,

seriously impaired.
Mr.. Muir was induced to form this

terests Of the holders OF railroad securi-
ties, because 1t became evident In the re-

roads that there was an urgent neces.
sity for demonstrating the fact that the
ownership OF the railroads Of the coun-
try Is not vested In . few rich people.
