Peace TO Men
of Good VIII
By CHARLES r. THWlNC

The angels song. ION Earth Peace,
Good VIII Toward Men, can also be
translated ''peace 10 men of good
will" This version Is timely. as well
as correct for the Greek. For peace
can and shall come to men of good
will, and it cannot come to men of
bad will.
Who is the man Of good will? II
is he who has a choice of happiness.
Of righteousness, of goodness for all
men. II is he who desires that men
may be blessed, and who tries TO
make the desire effective. The man
Of good will does not hate. Neither
does he incarnate hate in any weapon
offensive or defensive. He Is free from
revenge, and Is full of forgiveness
for the penitent He may not forget
injuries, but, what Is more important.
he Is eager 10 make injury the Occa-
sion for helping the offender 10 over
come the evil within the heart or
win out of which the injury sprung.
He is capable Of mighty indignatiOns,
but he does not suffer himself to be
conquered by them. Without being
impassive. he Is calm In the face OF
wrong. and he is very patient, be-
Ing more willing to be the victim than
the agent of evil His hatred of all
sin and his love for the man who,
despite his manhood, is guilty of sin.
are alike strong and lasting He is
free from suspicion, he thinketh no
evil He loves his nelghb0r, not only
as himself, but even more, being more
eager to do justice than TO receive
Justice.
The qualities and elements which
constitute the man Of good will also
constitute the commonwealth Of good
will.
Such a commonwealth is a common
wealth peace Willing good to 9th |
ers, others will good also to It. Arm |
aments In such condition have no long !
er any function to play, and they melt
away. The battlefags are furled, |
Wars cease and rumors of wars are
not heard. Men become brothers in |
mutual service and happiness, as they |
are brothers In origin and destiny.

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

So long as the war continues just
so long will our government require
the full service of the savings of our
people. To attract these savings the
treasury will most probably be called
upon to improve the attractiveness of
it's bonds 1t goes without saying, says
Henry Clews in his Financial Review,
that in proportion as our treasury
obligations are made attractive, not
unnaturally will there be Withdrawals
of capital from fixed channels that are
less attractive either by reason of their
smaller return on the investment, or
by reason of the popular appreciation
of the predominant soundness and
safety of the financial obligations of
the richest country in the world, such
as our government concededly is.
Until the war ends private enter
prise must stand in allegiance. Our
entire export and import trade has
been placed under official control;
our shipping, our railroads, our for
eign exchanges, our domestic trade,
such as the distribution of life's ne
cessities, all are under license. Every
profits, and where these efforts are not
entirely successful, such profits are in
effect made to accrue to the govern
ment in the form of special taxation.
War taxes of various kinds cut
down tie buying power of incomes.
Industrial activity is being retarded
by the congestion of transportation ia
cil;ties. Building has fallen to low
ebb. In a word, war conditions are
in complete control. Today there
seems slight prospect of relaxation
until the termination of the war comes
with more or less definiteness into
sight. Then in the form of active
purchases of securities the financial
markets will anticipate peace They
will not await the formal signatures
to the treaties. Financial circles are
thus today awaiting something def
mite and tangible in the form of peace
prospects.
The railroads may be regarded in
some degree an exception to these
conditions. Their requirement for at
least the full war period by the gov
| eminent partakes somewhat of the
nature of insurance, under current
conditions, of their dividends and in
fact OF their financial prospects The
president proposes to guarantee net
earnings on the basis of the three
years Immediately preceding our en-
trance into the conflict. Dividends
a-s assured; no question of default of
| interest is involved. New capital is
to be provided under the govern
ments auspices; and the present plan
| of legislation contemplates the return
of the roads to their owners within
eighteen months after the declaration
of peace, at which time the transpor-
tation companies will have successful
ly weathered the storm. Presumably
they Will then be in an even better
condition physically and financially
than when the government. took pos
session.
IL also becomes apparent that if the
railroads are to receive funds for pro-
viaing new rolling stock, rails and
equipment generally, the equipment
companies will correspondingly par
ticipate in their good fortune.
