power Of the Secretary Of the
Treasury and the Federal Reserve
Board to control and check. Prompt
application Of high interest rates by
the Federal Reserve banks could
at once retire two billions of redis-
counts, which are now almost pure
imitation. And such a policy would
exercise farreaching effect upon
the whole banking and credit
structure of the country. Not at
any time since the Civil War, not
even in the dark days of Re-
sumption, or of free silver ard
Organism, has it been so largely
given TO the Administration in
power deeply to influence the pros
porous trend of the nations affairs
and the happiness Of it's people.
Optimistic forecasts are offered
as to the great demand for locomo-
tivcs and railway equipment that
will come with peace. 1t is well
known that our own railway carac-
ity has not kept pace with the in
creased demands of the last four
years. And that Of Germany, Aus
tria and other warning countries
must be at Il low cbb OF Russia we
know this to be true. If the Brit
ish. French and German factories
are kept busy for the next year or
two supplying their domestic de-
mand. that will leave a wide field
open 10 The companies in the United
States. 1t is reckoned that some
tning ike Il quarter of the total

total quantity of grain. For July
many of these items were double
and even triple the shipments for
July of the preceding year. In this
time, as is we'll known, the tota! of
farm products in the country, ex-
cept in meat, was but little above
the pre-war averages. This means
that in the last year there has been
a genuine contraction in the amount
Of food consumed in the country,
real food saving. This, in the face
of the enormous expansion in the
buying power of the community, is
q notable triumph. 1t will be in
teresting to observe how far this
war thrift will continue when the
existing restrictions are removed,
for it does not appear that there
will be a great immediate decrease
III this buying power. If there is
not, it is not overly clear as to
where the anticipated decline in the
cost of living will come. Europe's
demands must run far above nor
nal for at least a year to come.
With the utter prostraton of pro-
duction in Russia, the return of
Germany, with its 70,O0O,OOO to the
worlds markets, will be an added
factor in the probable demand. 1t
is a very remarkable fact that, for
several years after our Civil War
the price of wheat and some other
| commodities averaged much higher
than during the war, in spite of the
return of a million men, in the
North alone, to what was then much
more Of country of farmers and
food producers than this nation is
now.

Speculation as to postwar con-
ditions hold the centre Of the stage.
| For a long time to come their focal
point will be Washington. This
country has been up till this war
relatively free from governmental
domination. To-day five or six men
at Washington hold the immediate
future of this country in their
hands. First Of all comes Mr.. Nc
Adoo, at the head Of the railways
and at the head Of the Treasury.
He may elect for immediate rail
Way rehabilitation and expansion,
OF he may elect to retrench. 1t is
within his power to continue the
giving Of large credits to our allies,
or to stop them short. The extent
Of their buying in the markets Of
this country largely depends upon
his choice. At the head of the
banks and likewise at the head of
railway finance is the we'll known
railway 1inancier, Nj. Shelton
Williams. The power exercised
over the banks by the present Con-
troller Of the Currency is almost
autocratic. With the backing of Mr..
McAdoo and the assistance OF the
Federal Reserve Board, he has an
almost straNglc hold or banking
pohcs. These i've or sly men wilt

TWO Of the patrols took a position
on the right and left flank while
the third, composed Of eight men un-

executed a clever turning movement
and entered Anseryillers from the
rear and fell upon the German ad
Vanced posts. The patrol fired only
one shot and then attacked the Ger
