TRADE DEFENCE
URGED FOR U. S.
Preparedness Alone Can
Hold First Rank, Says
Commerce Chief.
FINANCE POLICY
Is BIG PROBLEM
DR.. Pratt Points Out Need of
Trained Men TO Solve
Pressing Questions.

Washington, Jan. 4--How tho United
states, through the accident Of a world
war, ms moved from its place as n
commercially provincial, and secondary
power TO the rank Of first Importance
economically. industrially and fnan-
chilly is told in the first annual re-
port Of DR. Edward f. Pratt, chief Of
the Foreign and Domestic Commerce
Bureau Of the Department of Com
merce.
What the country has gained tempo
rarily through the fortunes OF the Eu-
ropean conflict, says the report, IL can
hope to hold in the commercial strug-
sic that will be resumed at the conclu-
sion of peace only BY the most far
sighted commercial preparedness. Two
grave problems facc development and
maintenance of foreign trade finance
and training men for the work.
"The financing of our foreign
trade" says the report, "and, in fact.
by far the larger pat of the financing
of the worlds trade, has hitherto been
done through London. During the last
hundred years London has been the
worlds financial market. She has held
her position, not because of prestige
merely, but because the nations of the
world needed an international clearing
horse, and London supplied that.
New York Takes Lead.
"On account Of the war this situa-
ton is rapidly changing. The volume
of foreign business done through New
York is continuously increasing and
New York banks are rapidly providing
facilities for Americans who wish TO
export. Dollar exchange, a thing prac-
tically unheard of prior to this year,
is assuming constantly charging i'm
portance in the financial world and is
rapidly becoming popular ms n means
of meeting international obligations"
Two provisions in the Federal Re-
serve act, the report says, have been
OF material assistance 10 the foreign
trade. One is the introduction of the
use of acceptance and the other per-
mission granted to national banks to
establish foreign branches.
an thus establishing branch banks
in foreign countries" the report CON
tinues, 1--WE are following the lead Of
England. Germany and other European
countries, which have used their banks
as trade outposts. European exporters
have been able. because they had their
own banking institutions on the
ground. to extend credit TO their Gus
toners, wher such credits were de-
served. Our exporters have been ham
pered by the lack Of these facilities.
More important than this, documents
containing often the most confidential
facts of our merchants and manu-
facturers have been open to the scru-
tiny Of our competitors.
Must BE Ready to Loan.
1--WE can never hope 20 realize the
really big prizes in foreign trade I'M
I'll we are prepared to loan capital to
