"War Hazard" and Business.

Summing up a review Of the invest
ment situation, Knauth, Nschod d
Kuhne say: Business men are not
forgetting that a war hazard still eX-
lists. That will continue so long as the
war lasts. But the country Is doing
good business in spite of it. The av-
erage prosperity to-day is much greater
than has been witnessed at any time
since the conhagraticn abroad upset
the worlds commerce. Very interest
ing predictions have been heard as to
row loag the war will last. Some
authorities expect the fighting to end
this spring. he fact Is, however
there is nothing in the situation at the
moment to Justify the belief that the
struggle will end soon. Financial ex-
iaustion' is not likely TO bring it about
for the simple reason that while some
Of the belligerents may be marc
nreesed. none OF them has reached the
Stage where it is really suffering for
mon or money"

Blockade and the Exchanges.

Blockade and the Exchanges.
If there is great TODD about the
proposed blockade by the Allies tho
United States will be far from being
alone in is protests. Norway. Sweden.
Denmark, Holland and Greece have all
been making great profits out OF the
shipping industry. In the Scsndins-
vian countries, particularly, shipowners
and the stockholders IN shipping COM
panies have made more money than
many a speculator here in Interna-
tional Mercantile Marine. Excitement
over the profits from ocean freights IN
some of The northern seaports has at
times approached frenzy. Then. too
O. thing not generally realized-the
comparatively favorable position the
exchanges of those countries on the
United States enjoy is in large meas.
ure due TO the credits they have piled
up here through their ocean carrying
business. Il is one of the things that
has made it possible for Greece to be
a heavy purchaser Of supplies in the
United States, and the other nations
have benefited rrespondingly.
