The increasing activity Of her rail-
way system is similarly demonstrable.
In 1869, there were in France 10,743
miles of railroad track; in 1912, there
were 31,546 miles.
Between 1869 and 1912, inland navi-
cation increased 1890; while the traffic
of her mercantile marine had amazing
ly expanded. The tonnage entering
French ports in 1869 is set down as
100000 tons. In 1912, this had been
increased to 80 1000, 600 tons.
Leaders in American finance ascribe
the solidarity of the French republic to
three influences: Erst, thoroughly
sound banking system. centralized in
one Of the greatest banking institutions
Of the world, the Bank of France; sec
ond, the ingrained thrift and frugality
of the French people as a whole, to-
gether with a national economic vigor
not elsewhere surpassed; third, wise su-
pervision, and patriotic cooperation by
the government with banking and bust
ness interests.
The government does its part to war
holders of its securities. One of it's
wise policies Is to impose new taxes to
defray the interest charges on new Sc
curity issues. 1t began this practice
after the Franco-Prussian War, and is
today following the same rule in regard
to securities issued to finance the pres
ent conflict This continuity of pur-
pose. doubtless, will prove reassuring
/ to all holders of French government
securities.
The Franco-Prussian war of 1870
1871 taught the French people the
meaning of thrift and economy. Sc
we'll did they learn this lesson, tha

manded by Germany, $1,O0oO00.000

of industrial activity that will be re-
quired and that is in part already
planned, offer peculiarly inviting
field to American capital and enter
prise. Tentative steps have already
been taken by representatives of Amer
lean engineers and business men in this
work
Aside from its attractive business
aspect, the enlistment of American
money and effort in the great task of
reconstruction that will remain at the
end of the war will tend to cement still
more closely the ties that bind the two
great Republics together. and will en-
able Americans to discharge in part
the debt they owe to France for her
friendly interest in the welfare and
progress of the United States from
the beginning of its life as a ma
ton.
In judging the industrial status OF
any nation. its production and con
sumption of coal, iron. and steel and
! the growth of its transportation sys
tens are highly significant factors.
In 1869, French industries consumed
/ 81 million tons of coal, of which 49,:
millions were taken from home mines
In 1912, the consumption was 81 nil
lions, of which Al million tons wer,
taken from home mines.
4 In 1869. the French output of cas-
iron was 1,3S0,000 tons, and of steel
100000 tons. In 1914, France pro
duced $4,000 tons of cast iron an,
4,635 900 tons Of steel.
