Department of Commerce Shows Vast Gain in Wealth Under Wilson, Munitions Business Is but One
 Per Cent of Total.

In answer to the cry of Republican politicians, that the unprecedented prosperity that has come to America under the administration of President Wilson is due to the European war orders, comes statement from Charles NJ. Schwab, head of the Bethlehem Steel Company, himself a Republican. that refutes the charge.
 "It is a mistake to imagine that the major portion of our business is war order business" says Mir. Schwab, in a signed article in the October number of System. "EVen a casual inspection of the great volume of exports will demonstrate that the bulk is drawn from the ordinary course of business. It is also found that, at present prices, domestic business is as profit able as foreign intuition business"
 No one can doubt the capability of MT. Schwab to judge the business sits- alton, nor can one gainsay the recent figures issued by the Department of Commerce. In this report, it is stated that. during the first eight months of the present fiscal year. the exports of the United States showed trade balance in favor of this country of S1. 30,O00OO0.
