The bank, however, gives figures indi-
eating that France is not only meeting
l,-r military and civilian problems with
q stout heart and never failing cour
age, but is re-establishing her export
business with this country.
In 1914, the year Of the outbreak Of
the War, imports from France to this
country totaled $141, 446,252. This to-
tai was reduced to SIT, 158,74O in 1915,
but last year the value Of French i'm

Of the United States and of France en-
the mightiest empire. In defense OF.
these principles, France Is engaged in
a death struggle with militant autoc-
racy and ruthless aggression, and it is
not surprising to learn that she has
loaned to her allies and to other friend
1y states 7,OO0,OO0,OOO francs with which
to further the cause Of democracy. It
is in keeping with Americas traditions
that since the date on which we for
mally aligned ourselves with France
and her allies in the great struggle, our
Government has lent to France $780,
100000.
It is eminently fitting that. America
should now be fighting on French soil
to make the world safe for democracy.
The liberty that America has enjoyed
for 14O years France helped her to
achieve. The swords Of Lafayette and
Rochambeau, aided by the guns of De
Grasse upon the high seas, assisted in
cutting the foreign ties that bound the
American colonies prior to the War for
Independence, and from the private
purse of King Louis himself came the
first loan to America and
unconditional-to finance that historic
undertaking. It was with entire just
tice that Washington wrote to Rocham-
beau, "To the generous aid Of your ma
ton and to the bravery Of its sons is
to be ascrtbed in very great degree
that independence for which we have
! fought" ----

With Paris Boulevards echoing with

increases, and the facts are not lack
ing to encourage the belief that she Is
already on the road to recovery from
che blow Of invasion by ruthless en-

One of the most important devel-
opments is the announcement that
one of the largest banking institutions
in America concerned with foreign
trade, the Guaranty Trust Company
of New York, has opened a Paris
branch to handle the rapidly increas-
ing volume of French business.
This action may surprise many per-
sons who had thought Of France as
