FORCING An INVESTMENT LESSON.

Every person who bought q govern
ment bond and is able to hold 1t should
keep it both as a good investment and
a patriotic duty.
In the middle west and west huvins
government bonds is a new investment.
Here in this agricultural country IN.
vestment has meant the purchase of
iand- When a man saved or inherited
reasonable sum he put it into land"
with the comforting thought that land
doesn't run away or burn up" Land
Us attractive also because OF a certain
speculative aspect Which has always
kept its promises. SO industrials, bonds
and investments OF that character have
not appealed to the agricultural sec-
tons tthe Mississippi valley.
The Bankers Magazine forsees in
the emergency sale Of government
bonds an ultimate effect in the creation
Of a large permanent class of investors
all over the country, not only in gov
eminent bonds but in all safe securi-
ties. Such a development" i; cor
tinues would be regarded as particular
ly fortunate" and continues:
Mr.. Morgan's famous epigram '.un-
dig ested securities" put in a striking
fashion the truth that the banks of the
United States sometimes became heav-
lily loaded with investment securities.
Could the banks pass more of those
securities on to their depositors and
others. the danger Of Indigestion would
be reduced by the fact that the num-
Der OF consumers would be increased
and the likelihood Of overlooking cor
respondingiy reduced. ",.. -'.-,'-
For the domestic and foreign f!nan-
ciai obligations which the United
States must shoulder for some time
forward We shall need an investing
public with almost unlimited powers
Of absorption, and it Is well that the pro-
GEES OF training such body Of in
vestors is now going on and that the
educational process is to an extent
compulsory fact which may be re-
lie! on to speed up the process.
That the broadening OF the invest
ment market resulting from the change
referred to may have an important eff
feet on the financial and economic
sta tus OF the United States is reason
ably certain.

MORE ABOUT STEINER.
IDes Mo!nes Capital.1

Dr.. Edward A. Steiner. q professor AZ
Grinnell College, complains that the
CAPITAL has done him an injustice. He
again declares his patriotism We have
no objection to his patriotic declara-
lions but we discover in his own
statement Of what he claims to have
said that he is an apologtst for Ger
many. In order to get at the situation
and. in a measure, to defend Germany,
he puts up Germany's faults ana
names ours also. This Is the fashion
able way with many whom we call
pro-German. When one talks to them
about the fearful Prussian atrocities in
Belgium they dismiss II all by saying
well war IL war" This appears to be
the plan OF Dr.. Steiner. We are willing
he should confess for Germany and
Austria. Their crimes are many. out
we do not want the crimes in Belgium
to be dismissed by any reference to
American commerc!alism nor by any
reference to the Bank of ENGLAND. The
following letter testifes to the Doctors
honesty Also to his guileness. He is
foolish enough to think that nobody
wuld catch on to his comparison OF
offences between Germany, Great Brf-
tain and the United States. This letter
from DR.. Steiner has been in the
possession OF the Capital several days,
but at a hasty glance it was discovered
that the letter was not signed. and the.
embossed name Of the doctor on the
sheet Of paper was not discovered until

WILSON SPEAKS FOR ALLIES.

While the presidents message is re-
'ceivirg cordial praise in England
France and South America having al
ready waa the editorial commentator
OF both ex-presidents Roosevelt and
Taft, senators and diplomats are won
dering where the president stands spe-
war. What Will he say as 10 Germany
giving Up her colonies VIII he favo,
giving Trieste 10 Italy and will he help
Japan keep kiau Chou in China Will
the United States insist upon the re-
turn Of Alsace and Lorraine TO France
There was a vagueness and diplo-
matte avoidance of specific statement
in the message that keep the diplo-
mats guessing but editorial critics
seem to think that it was wise no;
to involve the people OF the various
allied nations in a quarrel as to di-
vision of the spoils of war. at least not
until the war has been won.
The presidents purpose was to APP
peal TO the people Of Germany and
Austria to quit their fighting and live
by letting others live. At the same
time he had to satisfy the feeling In
Russia that wants to bring about a
world democracy and he must not say
anything that would antasonize or dis
hearten the people Of Great Britain and
France who are making such a noble
night against the common enemy. Fo,
diplomatic reasons he steered in be-
tween the various conflicting ideas and
self interests. and avoided specific
statement where it would raise a row
at an inopportune time.
Because of all the difficulties and
the damages involved in declare ton
OF purpose after the war IL is believed
that the governments of the entente
allies had been consulted as to the pres
ident's message and that it carried
their official approval before it was is
sued II this is true President Will
sons message to congress is the Off
cial statement Of entente aims in the
war and will stand as such until the
fortunes Of battle justify a different
statement Of what the allies PURPOSE
10 do with Germany when they catch
