AFTER-WAR PROGRAM
FOR BRITISH BANKS
London Journal Predicts Formation
of Money Trust"

London.-British banks are making
preparations for International trade
competition after the war.
At the beginning Of this war there
were eleven great Joint stock banks.
Now there are five. Amalgamation is
the answer.
The Daily Express sees in these
amalgamations the formation OF a
great British Money Trust ana de-
mands that "the menace be halted
now" and that legislation be enacted
for the control Of the amalgamated
banks.
Sir E. H. Holden. chairman Of the
London Joint City and Midland Bank,
Ltd. says:
THE Germans are making theii
preparations for after-war trade By
amalgamations and by opening new
branches.
English bankers are determined
that it shall not be alleged agsinst
them that they did not make fUI
preparation for meeting internationa
trade competition after the war.
"Amalgamations are taking plac'
in all parts OF the world. notably il
Germany. America, Sweden, Canad;
and Australia. The cry in all coun
tries is make the banks larger anC
stronger"
According to statements Of capita
given in the newspapers, the nv,
amalgamated banks have deposits to-
falling about $5S7,00o,oo.0oO.

Germans-but never carried out sue

the French reveal an elaborate sys-

ListcuiH- POSTS were established as

ingenuity went further. Special ap-

French telephone wires and not only
hearing orders-and by dictaphones
listening to conversations In the
trenchcs-but actually listening to the

Even a river intervening between

Unique Factory in France
, Shows American
Efficiency.
Paris. France.

Paris, France.
American efficiency? Why, Uncle
Sam even has his own spectacle
factory in France!
Three thousand doughboys are
wearing new glasses-which they
didn't have to send home for-be-
cause Uncle Sam is on the job. The
glasses are put together in France
by American soldiers; they are
ground and polished out OF Ameri-
can glass on American motor-driven
machinery.
Free to Soldiers
And the glasses are free to the
soldiers.
They're made with frames that
look like platinum. but actually are
Of the stuff that keeps the liberty
motor light-aluminum.
A new standard pattern has been
adopted for the rough usage glasses
get in the army. They're military
looking and as unbreakable as it is
possible for eyeglasses to be.
Now there are eight optical units
attached to base hospitals here, each
in charge of oculists ranking high
in-their profession back home.
The hub Of Uncle Sans spectacle

baTrack-like building full Of filing
cabinets, delicate machinery and

lot more about things scientific than
militaristic.
Packing cases full Of wrapped and
cushioned squares OF rough glass
and spectacle frames come into that
building daily. And out go spec
tacles by the hundreds and thou

teal glass obtainable.
Glass Carefully Made.
That glass comes from Pittsburgh,

u. S. ENGINEERS SET
NEW TRACK RECORD
Yanks Complete New Road for
Overseas Duty.

Paris-Sledge hammers or guns.
American soldiers are superior with
either.
Another railroad in France has
just been completed by a company
of railway engineers with this new
track-laying record: 2.e9 miles OF
narrow gauge railway laid in seven
hours and three minutes.
The company set out to finish
that last stretch by supper time, for
it meant the linking up of two i'm
portant French towns with Q railroad
upon which a regiment had been
working for several weeks.
Instead the work was finished at
1888 clock. A total OF 14.2o3 feet
OF ties and track were laid in 42a
minutes-an average of more than
thirty-three feet per minute and
more than a third of mile an hour.
An idea of the magnitude of the
task and the amount of labor in
Voived can be gained from this sum-
mary of material used:
Approximately 105 tons of steel
rails, 100 ties. 1880 pairs of fish
plates. kegs of bolts and 81 kegs
of spikes-a total of more than 230
tons of material.
All this had to be brought UP
from behind by two steam locomo-
/ tivcs. pushing the rail cars forward
ras soon as a section of track was
, spiked down. and by two motor
trucks, which hauled the ties.
The last link of this railroad isn't
far from the front, either. The
grading details, working ahead OF
the track-Iaying crew, were under
fire. But they were lucky: every
time Fritz dropped a bomb or a
shell at night in an effort to muss
up the new railroad it usually was
right about where the grading de-
tail was going to eNcavate anyway
Even the Hun helped build the line

The Roosevelt. and the Other Way

"The way to do things" said Colonel Roosevelt "is to do them and then discuss them" That is not phrase with the colonel; not an epigram but a statement of rule of action that has been tried by himself and found effective. He tried out to the satisfaction of himself and the people when he was president. No part of his energy, superabundant as it was. wasted in talking about the things GOING to do. Frequently the first intmation the country had of his intentions when it learned that the thing had already been done.
 The discussion then centered not about the ac- complishment but about the ruthless which it had been accomplished, and there was some depre- catory talk about the way the colonel had filtered the official floors with odds and ends tape which he had cut and slashed in his mpatence Regret was sometimes that he had taken more time all the time that would have been necessary to un- wind the sacred folds and not destroy them.
 In contrast to this way of doing things we have now little news of tho things have done or the things we are actually doing but of the wonderrai things we are going to do-sometme after we have got everything fixed to do them.
 The result has been complaint and investigation The complaint has not been that things have been wrongly done but that they have not been done at all that there has been too much talking discussion at the expense of action.

What viii. Russia po9

Ever since the first adjourned meeting of the representatives of the Teutons and the Bochevik at Brest-Ltovsk when the terms rather the demands ,f the former rejected, the world has enter tained hope that the break in the so-caled peace negotiations would be final and that Russia would continue to do the little it can to hold the German forces the eastern front So strong this hope that the allied governments withheld judgment and formed unfavorable judgment of the Bolshevki. Now have another rejection of still imperious German demands but in spite of that hope in Russia is steadily waning.
 The measure of disagreement between the Rus sians and the Germans and in fact the whole inter- pretation of it. must be governed by ones whole inter
