The financial community continued
,.,s week to adjust itself to the strin-
"a. conditions created by the govern
n.nt's fuel regulations These condi-
lions assumed more concrete form in
the decision of the Stock Exchange to
suspend business for the remaining
heatless Mondays.
Another important market factor was
ths speech Of the German Chancellor
in respect to peace terms. Foreign
news suggesting divcrgency in the
cesce views Of the Austrian and Ger
nan governments was also a factor.
Considerable attention WAS devoted to
tho railroad bill urged upon Congress
BY tie Secretary Of the Treasury as a
preliminary to the fotation of a ten
billion dollar loan before the end of
the fiscal year. In detail, the proposed
legislation seems far more advantage
Gus to the railroads than the original
outline indicated.
Opposition to government. ownership

voiced by Secretary McAdoo, and the
need OF establishing 100000 900

those securities.
Little Improvement was reported in
the industrial situation, fuel and labor
shortage again proving the chief handi-
caps. Output of finished products dur
ing the week was at greatly reduced
capacity. but the railroad blockade was
in a measure relieved.
Keen interest was manifested in next
Tuesdays meeting of the United States
S.cel directors. Action on tho common
dividend for the last quarter of 1917
will then be taken and earnings for
that period, rounding out the year, will
be published

tent powers of the Slavic chain
the Czecho- -Slovaks and the Jugo-
Slavs.
The former, a nation of scholars,
scientists and patriots of high intel
lectual order, has struggled against
the encroachments of Germany since
the fifteenth century. Through all
the pages of bloody but magnif-
cent history the Czecho- -Slovaks
have intensified the artistic, liter
ary and religious culture of Bohe-
mia, sustaining it's claim to the
standard of second to none among
the worlds centres Of learning.
It was the University of Prague
which gave forth the indomitable
spirit Of John Hus and the crusade
like period of the Hussite Wars.
John Hus gave to Europe the hope
for freedom of individual con-
science; not only religious reform,
but the philosophic platform which
inspired the French Revolution. He
was burnt alive for heresy, and the
entire Czech nation arose to avenge
his death. What originated as re-

own; upon that friendly diplomacy
whose abnormal concern for the
politics of other countries has been
so startingly and painfully revealed
by the present war.
The Czecho-Sloval regiments
mobilized at the outbreak of the
war for the defence not Of their
own beloved territory but that of
entire pan-Germany, quickly real
lied that whatever the outcome of
the struggle Bohemia must forever

but many times, and since the fif-
teenth century these struggles
aFainst the Germans have never
ceased.
In 1926 Bohemia entered, with
Hungary, into a defensive alliance
with Austria against the advancing
Turk. Here began the series of
false promises which would appear
to be the animus of Central Euro
pean diplomacy. Gradually Bohe-

she alone held sacred. To-day she

One Hundred Regiments
Desert in Battle

Despite the frantic and subse-
ouently carefully intensive efforts
of Austria-Germany for the Ger
manization of Bohemia, the flame of
Slavic nationalism has burned as
steadily there as throughout the
Slavic chain. The Slav language,
spoken in the streets Of Czecho-
Slovak cities only at great peril;
Slavic industries, schools, churches,
and, above all, political centres,
were crushed beneath such oppres-
sive vigilance as rendered their
existence impossible. 1t is due to
just this cautious distribution and
dissipation of community spirit and
effort that the Central Powers have
maintained efficient" supremacy
over so vital race.
But there was a slip in this ex-

internment camps are packed with

That these tales Of misery and
oppression have escaped from the
prisons Of the Slavic race is due to
the indeinable, almost wordless COM
munication which exists between
Slavs in all parts of the world. Slav
leaders in America, who are work.
ing tirelessly for the cause of their
nations liberty, receive constantly
frail messages, slight vital details,
flashes of light, from behind the bar
riers overseas. Truly and courteous
ly concerned with the personal OBJ
jects Of the United States in this
war, loyal to its aims and war prof.
ects, they are yet intensely Slav. In
this very indomitable, unassimilatcd
quality Of race the United States has
come to recognize how potent and in
dividual an ally may prove the coor-
dinated millions who are already
seething in the heart of Central Eu-
rope.
That the condition in these coun-
tries is pitiable in the extreme is
entirely separate and apart from the
tremendous force of their strategic
possibilities. The Slavic chain is
not weak, impotent one, despite it's
private agony. It requires but the
anchoring Of an end in the strong
hold of American democracy and
that comprehension of the ideals Of
all races which has made this coun-
try the haven of the oppressed peo-
pies of the world.
