The pressure for employment has not

1t Is significant that labor has passed

when there were two or three Jobs for

employers were fearful OF discharging

so great as to cause manufacturers to
send agents into rival plants to bid high

the Government took drastic measures
to prevent continuance of such practices.

Paying War Contra ctors.

The Government itself can promote
largely trade recovery In this country
and make possible for our interests to
bid more effectively for foreign bust
ness by expediting adjustment of the
immense volume of unadjusted claims
growing out of cancellation of war ma
terial orders War Department officials
should leave nothing undone to settle
with the Government contractors i'm
mediately in all cases in which such
adjustments can be made without the
passage of enabling legislation, The
situation Is most urgent Three months
have elapsed since the armistice was
signed and the banks have been forced
10 carry large number of contractors
who several months ago obtained loans
TO enable them to complete Government
work in which they were engaged
The loans were renewed in the belief
that adjustments would be promptly
paid and the Indebtedness wiped out
Should payments be longer deferred, the
, contractors would be put to great inc5n-
venience and in cases In which the finan-
sial position OF the borrower was inse-
cure, further failures would result. II Is
unfortunate that In adjusting the claims

1t is necessary that outstanding claims
against the Government should be liqui-
dated with least possible delay, to relieve
hardships incident to keeping a large
group of contractors, most OF whom pos
sess small capital, waiting for money.
The Government must stand by those
men and see that they are treated with
all consideration. 1t was their loyalty
and persistence in striving for capacity
production which counted heavily in sue

There is much In the Governments
exhibit of our extraordinary foreign
trade during January for the average
American to become excited about. The
compilations just published disclose the
largest volume of monthly exports ever
reported, S623, 100000. and much the
heaviest export excess, s410,000,000,
ever shown. When it is recalled that
our export excess during the fifty-one
months of the war reached s10,9oS,000,-
coo, Januarys huge addition to the in
debtednesS of other nations to this
country brings up the question as 10
how much further the movement is
likely to 60 The showing Is more ex-
traordinary when it is remembered
that last months outward shipments
were restricted by an inadequate ship
ping service due to the fact that ocean
transportation is far from normal
owing to the large number Of merchant
vessels yet in Government service But
the inference to be drawn from that ex-
traordinary showing IS that our foreign
trade is on a totally different basis from
that of five years ago. Reorganization
of world industry has made possible for
American interests to obtain a stpong
foothold in foreign markets which under
former conditions were closed TO them.
A new era in our foreign commerce
possibilities sufficiently alluring to
make us strive for the most intelligent
leadership in tine coming struggle for
trade supremacy. The prodigious trade
balance in our favor shows that II will
be necessary for us to offer liberal
credits to our foreign customers as an
offset to the abnormally high quotatio
for American drafts throughout the
| world. If these credits are not pro-
vided Immediately, We cannot hope to
add TO the list of our foreign customers,
since the rise In New York exchange
| has reduced their purchasing power in a
way which has made 1t very costly for
| business men of other lands to do bust
! ness with us. The pressing need OF the
| moment Is to provide generous credit
| balances in this city for the accounts of
| our foreign clients
Some foreign Government loans are

The stock market is entering higher
territory and the probability is that ex-
cept for occasional interruptions Il will
stay there, which does not mean neces-
sarily that a bull campaign has started
or that the next six weeks will be a pc
Rod OF continuous upbidding of prices.
The stock market would not be the stock
market II there We're not setbacks, re-
verses and periods of depression. But
the market shows a better undertone in
response to a growing feeling that the
, readjustment of trade has reached
stage in which many excuses of the war
period have been corrected and the nor
NAL consumptive demand is enlarging, a
good sign showing that American indus
try is on n much safer basis than It was
when the armistice was negotiated.
New Government Loan.
II the Government contrives to float
| Its new loan In a manner which will not
1 burden the banks by forcing them to
| become investors instead of lenders, the
country's business will take on a new
! lease OF life. The new Government notes
must not be placed with banks, because
that would mean nothing less than ex,
! changing a longer term security for the
snort dated Treasury certificates of In
debtcdness with which the banks are
heavily stocked.
Secretary Glass appreciates that dan
ger because in answer to Geographic
! inquiries from Liberty Loan commit
tees, he made clear that the new loan
in whatever form 1t is offered must be
sold through the means of nationwide
canvass. precisely as the four preceding
| Liberty Loans were marketed. If ever
there was an urgent need of reaching
the permanent investor and having him
| assume the load, 1t Is in this hour OF
reconstruction, transition and uncer-
tainty. The Treasury must come to
! terms with the small investor. He Is
the biggest factor in all Government loan
campaigns and it<syoald be disastrous
for the Treasury to slight him when the
problem OF Government finance resolves
! itseR into interesting the man having
4 only $50 or 800 to invest
The fact that the new Government
| notes are to be issued in $50 denomina.
! tons and higher shows that the Treas
ury officers have the little investor in
mind. It will be OF great assistance te
get the loan out of the way because
until 1t is marketed. every other form
OF financing must be sidetracked. II
the loan should be oversubscrfbed
handsomely and II Is clear that the
bonds have been placed with genuine In.
vestors. sharp upward response in thu
stock market could be looked for. pro
vided the situation be not depressed
otherwise.
In a large measure continued activity
of investment markets will be con
trored by the success of the great Vic
tory Loan. The war has ended, tn,
