PROBLEMS OF REIMBURSEMENT.

Differences of opinion have developed
among bankers and manufacturers with
reference 10 the probable effect Of peace
on the industries and the commerce
of the United States Readjustments
of radical kind are, OF course, to bc
expected. The stock markets indicate
a general realization of this fact by sharply
diffcrentiating between war stocks, 50
called. and stocks that should benefit
from the return Of peace The dramatic
news of Bulgaria unconditional sur
render, for example, caused an advance
on the prices of securities long depressed
and a corresponding decline IN the prices
of the securities of corporations engaged
III turning out munitions and other war
supplies
These symptomatic fluctuations should
emphasize To Congress and TO the leading
industrial and commercial bodies of the
country the necessity Of taken up the
problems Of REIMBURSEMENT and recon
struction for careful and enlightened
study Confused thinking and vague
fears of business dislocation and I'M
employment are among the first ''psy
Geological factors that cause panics
George NJ. Reynolds, president of
the Contine n,sl and Commercial Ma
tional Bank, has expressed the posi-
tive opinion that there is no reason to
apprchcnd "a violent or general reaction
when the war ends Trade will continue

of the exhaustion Of supplies OF all kinds

WILHELM, THE LATER HUN.

At the moment when the Kaiser is
prating of his desire for IAN upright
peace which rejects every selfish vio-
lation of the rights Of Others God save
the mark-the real will To destruction"
is manfesting itself Inwanton savagcry
in northern France along the line of his
beaten and retreating troops. Cam
brai is burning or burned, st. Quentin
Is burning or burned. Douai is burning,
Laon is afire. Lille is menaccd with the
torch, at least twenty places between
Lens and Reims are reported in flames.
A more hcllishly conceived and ruthlessly
applied effort Of the will to destruction
has not been witnessed in warfare since
the days of Attia the earlier Hun.
Attia spared some things, some towns.
some persons. Wilhelm the War Lord
spares nothing, either on the advance
or on the retreat His Grave troops
who under splendid leadership have
accomplished almost supcrhuman deeds
throughout the whole war" hav been
transformed by that splendid leadership
into almost superhuman thieves and
incendiaries. Every movable and vnl,i-
able piece of private property within
their reach during the period of occu-
patton has either been stolen and sent
to Germany or is now on its way ththcr
in the vans that accompany the beaten
and rctrcating divisions. Every dwell
ing house or cottage which the torch
can reach, every home of business or
industry which the law of nations holds
sacred against everything but absolute
necessity. Is doomed and de
stroyed 10y these superhuman incendlarics
acting under the kaIser's commands

THE EXPECTED OCCURS.

The sinking of the Tampa is the first
considerable disaster to the United States
at sea since our war with Germany began
1t was expected that American ships
would be sunk by German submarines
when the transports began 10 ccross the
Atlantic bearing troops to the Entente
ports The expected has al last occurred
That the occurrence is upon tins side OF
more than q year . steady flow ri troops
TO Europe shows that many losses OF tins
lind need not be expected and that We
may count with confidence upon virtu-
ally uninterrupted dispatch Of troops to
the aid Of our European Allies and for
the assurance of an early victory.
Had d ship Of the Tampa's size been
sunk by d submarine IN the early months
Of our participation in the war the question
Of whether we. could send troops with
sufficient certainty and swift ness would
have been moOted in America and else
where. As matters are the sinking OF
the Tampa Is a cause OF sorrow for the
loss Of the brave men who went down with
her, but not q cause of uneasiness as to
the carrying out of our overseas program.
