Speaking before the New York
Chapter of the American Institute of
Banking on Wednesday evening, Mr.
0. P. Austin, formerly chief of the
United States Bureau Of Statistics,
and now statistician of the Foreign
Trade Department Of the National
City Bank, attacked the delusion that
we are building up foreign trade
We are selling goods to belligerent
countries on a scale hitherto unimag-
Unable and we are receiving in pay
ment securities, gold and promissory
notes, but it is a weird, asymmetri-
cal business, without a future Of Its
own. 1t is not trade in the proper
sense Of that word. Mr.. Austin looks
TO what is beyond. All Of the bel
ligerent countries, especially Great
Britain, France and Germany, are
preparing vigorously to regain their
former positions in those world mar
kets toward which American manu-
facturers have been indifferent. And:
As 70 our exports 70 the warning
countries, which have SO enormously
increased, we must expect, OF course,
an absolute termination OF the move
ments OF materials now utilized in
conjunction with war, while the very
facility with which we transformed
our manufacturing establishments
into a condition by which they could
quickly turn out war materials sug-
gests that the manufacturing estab-
lishments Of Europe will promptly
readjust their war industries 70 meet
domestic requirements OF their own
people, and also those required for
rcestablishing their markets abroad.
He finds it an unpleasant duty to
tell the truth about ourselves:
II must be admitted. painful Gs it
is 10 make this admission, that our
manufacturers have not risen to the
opportunity offered by conditions in
the neutral countries during the last
two years. They have devoted their
attention 70 tho monetary opportu-
nifty offered By the wsr demands of
Europe rather than a Flooding, per-
sistent effort TO obtain for themselves
proper proportion of the neutral
markets opened 70 them By TIE situs-
ton which presented itself at tho be-
ginning Of the war. We have
been so absorbed IN the admiration Of
the temporary increase OF our exports
70 the countries at war that We have
oyek oOked apparently the more i'm
porfsnt duty Of making permanent
gains in our exports 70 those markets

The above rates express the cost o.
foreign money in terms Of the Ameri'
can dollar. You buy an English pound
sterling for t4.75S; tho intrinsic par
itv is s4.s6S per pound. Thus, you
say either that pounds are at a dis
count or that dollars are at pre-
MUM, which is owing to the fact that
in England the demand for dollars
with which TO settle accounts In this
country is greater than the demand In
this country for pounds with which to
settle accounts In England.

Most OF the transactions on the

Gold to Argentina--Heavy withdraw
ais Of gold for export to Argentina were
announced yesterday. The Guaranty
Trust Company announced s2,750,o0o
taken for shipment; the National Bank
of Commerce, s25O.0oo. and the Column
bla Trust Company 100000, making q
total OF $3,400,000. With the metal
taken Tuesday and last week this makes
the total movement to date approx
mately 100000. Additional exports
are predicted. Bankers say they may
run as large as s2O,OOO,OOO. The move
ment to Argentina at this time is due
TO the fact that that country has a
favorable trade balance, making Argen-
tina exchange in New York sell at a
premium. Buenos Ayres exchange on
New York continues 10 move in favor OF
the former; the quotation yesterday was
1.0l7 gold pesos TO the American dollar.
This compares with parity of 1886.

When the relation between the
profits and capital stock of an in
dustrial company become so fan
tastic as now is the case, not only
is the critical faculty suspended, but
the very ground Of criticism IS re-
moved. Steel and iron shares have
fallen into the same category with
mining stocks. The profits of steel
company may equal its capital in a
year, and that would no longer be
treated as an extraordinary thing
Some companies have done more.
Bethlehem Is earning three or four
times its capital in year, though
before the war it had never paid
dividend on its common shares. So,
when a steel stock goes up 20 or 80
points in a day on the Stock Ex-
change you may disbelieve it, but you
cannot characterize it. All that you
can find in the manuals of statistics
or in the card index boxes about its
past performances will be almost no
clew TO what it may be doing, or
may be going to do. So you hold
your breath and wonder. Things Of
which the value could once have been
expressed in decimals may now have
a sudden reason for selling at any
price, even as mining stocks. Ulti-
mately, it will be found that great
many things have sold at fabulous
prices with little or no reason at all,
and then perhaps we shall find it as
hard TO believe in values as it now
is to believe in decimals.
