"Mobilizing Money for War" is the
title of an interesting booklet issued by
the Guaranty Trust Company of New
York, a financial organization that per-
haps comes nearer to having its hand
on the financial pulse of the world than
any other. That it will be easy for
the u. S. to extend to the allied
countries of Europe, their soldiery and
civilian population, the enormous Gre
dit of s3, 900, 900, 600 is made clear by
the statement of the fact that this
nations wealth has increased in the
last seven years almost 33 l3 per
cent, and in the last seventeen years it
has grown nearly lit per cent. This
nation possesses one third of the world
stock of gold nearly three billion dol
lars. The national assets of the U. S.
equal the combined wealth of Great
Britain, Russia, France, and Italy, and
we have today two and quarter times
as much wealth as Great Britain; four
times as much as France and eight
times as much as Italy. We are the
richest nation right now in all history.
''Great Britain" says the booklet,
"has borrowed little more than one
fourth of the amount of her national
wealth; the borrowings of France and
Russia are less than one fifth. and
Italy's proportion is but little more
than one tenth. Judging from these
figures, the borrowing capacity of the
U. S., with its two hundred billions
of wealth should be more than forty
billions. 1t is inconceivable that such
a sum will be necessary, but what ever
amount our national honor demands,
should be raised by the contributions
of the whole nation and from the re-
sources of all the people" "
