The American business community
should guard against any sense Of safety
IN our present prosperity. in so far as
that prosperity Is based on business con-
nected with the belligerent activities In
Europe. Our business men should care
fully discount the discontinuance OF So
called war orders and avoid basing fu-
ture calculations on conditions which
they bring into existence.
European war orders doubtless are
bringing TO some manufacturers imme-
diate and large profits. They do not in
any way. however, indicate permanent
business.
1T Is conceivable that they may be
positively Injurious by dlverting the at
tention Of our manufacturers from for
eign markets In Latin America. the Far
East. Africa and Australia TO which we
should AT the moment be directing our
most earnest efforts. We may be VOL
