The National Wealth

What is th" national wealth at this
'lme-- what figure has it reached? Ii
is frequently referred to, nowadays,
because IT is the ultimate reservoir
OF our war effort. From it the gov
"rnment draws not alone the billions
n taxes and Liberty bonds for the
support OF the army and navy, but
the commodities that are their phys
ical sustcnance. We know it is enor-
nous. If possibly cxcelled by the un-
derying possessions Of the group of
countries which form the British en-
pire, our wealth is undoubtedly un-
matched for immediate availability
because of the superior state of de-
velopment of this nations resources
We know that only a neg.igib e pro
portion of the wealth is in money,
though to appraise it money terms
must be employed. The fact appears
to be that it has been increasing so
able able to maxi only vague est ma es
of it, AS officially summed UP FOR
the year 1912, it amounted to $751;,
739 OIL cooper capita. Sl,96o. FL ut
wears earlier it had been calculated
to be S107,1042 900. The develop
ment during that peace period, shared
by all the word was most gratifylng;
no equal interval had shown such a
percentage of gain since stud es OF
the wealth of nations were estab-
lishcd on a scientific basis. But the
other day an estimate was submitted
to CONGRESS- which nut the figure at
$3.50 900 900 900. or S2,250 per capita.
And an American banker now declares
his conviction tht if it were rroc-
ticablc for skilled actuar'es TO make
an appraisal the showing would be
not leg than 100000, ,000, ,oO0.-Provi-

Across the table from them Fred ].
Wilson, general manager Of the Inter

little knot of Hearst attaches, argue d
and disputed every point, sometim es
with smiles, sometimes with frowns
but always at exhaustive length.
Demands of the union call for a
general wage increase of $12 a week
81 a day, or 25 cents an hour over the
rate now being paid under contract
which does not expire until June 80
In addition, time and half for over

ATLANTIC CITY, Dec. 4.--In search
of plan and q philosophy for living
;ndustrislly in the new world made
safe by the fighting men across the
seas. nearly 5000 American men of
business met here to-day.
To the delegates and their followers,
who came from every state as repre-
ssntati,es of 420 industries to the war
emergency and reconstruction congress
nj the War Service Committees, new
horizons in the world of commerce
were made visible in addresses by lead
ers Of trade IN its varying phases.
In the great auditorium, flied with
earnest men who seemed inspired by
eulblems Of all the Allied nations. a
sood of emotional feeling was re4eased
when Harry A. Wheeler, president OF
the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States, in his address, which
opened the convention, said that "coun-
sci OF statistics cannot adequately rep.
resent American business" at the peace
conference,
Leaders of industry rose from their
dignity and cheered with a vim, after
Nj Wheeler had explained his efforts
10 have President Wilson appoint an
advisory committee of business men
to accompany him to France. Mr..
Wheeler read the following reply from
the President:
you may be sure | would send a
message TO the meeting at Atlantic
City If knew what message to send,
but frankly do not. 1t is q time
when we must all thoughtfully take
counsel and apply the wlsest action to
circumstances as they arise.
Engrossed in Peace Plans
"T am Of course engrossed with pre-
psrafions for leaving for the other
side. | hope that you will extend my
warmest greetings to those who will
assemble at Atlantic City"
Commenting on the Pres ident's let
ter, Mr., Wheeler said: at has been as
certs'ned hat Cor considerable per-
iod, statistics he'ng available for guId-
ence If those who may conduct peace
negotiations in nuc behalf. 1t NAV be
that the President has in mind, or has
already selected, an advisory commls-
sion with whom members of the peace
conference may AXE counsel, but upon
this point his 'ettar Is silent Counsel
can hardly he taken except where
minds meet and personalities come into
contact The counsel of statistics can
not adequately represent American
business
Mr.. Wheeler suggested that the rep
resentatlveS assembled might we'll take
up The qnestlon ,f sending a committee
OF business 'oen of expert knowledge
TO offer ADVICE 20 the American peace
delegates on purely economic questions.
He proposed that the convention en-
body its essential conclusions on the
