An authority. discussing the proba-
hility OF an effort being made at the
present time by the allies for the re-
lief Of Roumania, said:
There are two possible avenues of
relief for Roumania open TO tn" allies
The Russian route, thru Siberia from
Vladivostok, Is impracticahle on &C
count Of the vast distance, because the
Russian transports. before reaching the
Russian port. would also cross the
whole extent OF Russia. which already
suffers from inadequate rail facilities.
THE other route Is via the Persian
gulf, which is at the door OF India, n
reservoir both of men and Of materials,
to Urumia and Persia and thence thru
Armenia to the Black Sea.
The latter plan is feasible and like
". The British are in possession OF
Mesopotamia up to and beyond Bag
dad. and there are rumors of further
Turkish dcbacles impending in that
thcater.
1.-THE British forces also are advanc-
ing toward Erzerum. It is soon to be
expected that they Will have formed n
junction with the Russian army OF the
Caucasus. The combined armies then
would find little difficulty in organizing
y base on the coast of the Black Sea,
and once embarked, the expedition
would find no insurmountablc obstacles

MONEY FOR CORPORATIONS.
Federal Reserve Board Plans to Make
Loans to Utilities Concerns.

Washington. Jan. 2S.-The federal
reserve board in It's annual report,
suggests early consideration by con
gress Of the problem OF corporate
financing" and. according to local
bankers, plan contemplated by the
board, but not stated in its report, Is
the establishment Of a federal corpora
ton, capitalized at approximately
$500, 900, 900, and organized along the
lines OF the government; owned Elmer
gcncy Fleet Corporation, which would
supply funds to public utility and in
dustrial corporations which would or
dinarly do their financing in the open
market. This arrangement. it Is be-
licvcd. would relieve the banks OF the
burden OF financing, and at the same
time would make it unnecessary for the
companies 70 press their securities into
the hands Of Investors, who. In the alb
scnce Of new corporate issues. would
be in better position to make more
l!berkal investments in liberty loan
bonds
An intirnatiOn that some such pro-
posal was having the attention Of the
authorities in Washington was had in
the dispatches published a week ago
Saturday in which legislative plans
were outlined for the licensing, by the
treasury. Of all new security issues.
According to bankers, the organiZa-
ton of the $500 000, 900 corporation has
the tentative approval Of the federal
reserve board, and the bill providing
for its establishment is nearly COM
pleted, only few minor details having
yet to be decided upon. 1t Is under
stood that the proposed corporation
would lend money TO public utility and
other companies. provided Ill invtsti
cation showed that the money was
needed for essential industries, and
provided the credit standing Of the con-
Germ was satisfactory. 1t Is believed
that loans made to corporations will
be occurred by the deposit OF collateral,
and that all applications will be care
fully .crutinIzed. in fact TO a far more
exhaustive eytent than Is usually done
by bankers. Attic nothing official has
been made public on the subject. the
supposition Is that loans will be made
at a uniform rate to all borrowers.
As the government Is to own all the
stock Of the corporation It will have to
supply the funds, and the understand
ing Is that the proposed bill will pro-
vide for an appropriation to be made
out OF the general fund or out OF the
proceeds Of liberty loan bond sales.
The expectation Ia that the proposed
corporation Will work together with the
members OF the suggested security H.

cases, where 1t does not appear advis-

BAKER WARNS OF U-BOATS.

the Germans are preparing for a great

During the period under review,
renewed activity along the entire west

Tho region bordering the North Sea
has once again become the scene OF
severe fighting.
"A carefully cooroinated operation
undertaken by British monitors act
