CHARACTER AS ASSET
Is RULE TO BE LEARNED,
OPINION OF BONAR LAW

LONDON. July 13.-"The prob
lens which Will face the British
government when the war comes to
an end will be far more difficult
even than the carrying on OF the
war" says statement from Bonar
Law in discussing the charter OF
the new British Trade Corpora
ton"
What is needed for the develop
ment OF the trade OF the country. %
says Bonar Law, is that there
should be some method by which
character should be regarded as an
asset and as security There
should be some means by which
young men without the capital OF
their older competitors should have
a chance OF getting the credit
which would enable them 70 estab-
lish new lines Of business. and in
that way help the development OF
the trade Of the country.
The one thing that will be
needed more than anything else
after the war is credit. without
which trade and industry will be
paralyzed and unemployment and
distress immense"
