1t will be readily recognized what a
tlimitless range Of thought can come to
mind with this sentence as the text.
All through the ages the truth is rec
ognized that for any event, or person
to be kept in mind after few years,
there must be aSrecurring remem-

masses OF stone, chiseled thereon

great people might have record after

pyramids Of Egypt, the great pillars

the story of the attempt to perpetuate

Dollar
May Force Foreign
Borrowing Here

The high premium on the dollar will
hold out great inducement for for
eigners to borrow here, according to
the monthly circular of the National
City Bank, which repeats its recon-
mendation of the urgent necessity of
our extending loans to Europe and pur-
chasing European securities if we
would maintain our export trade.
The bank devotes most of its circu-
lars to an exhaustive analysis of the
GA, B, of the exchanges" and re-
marks in part:
at is needless now to disguise the
fact that the Allies had about reache ID
the end of their power to sustain the
rate when the United States entered
the war in April, 1917. If the credit
of the United States government had
not become available the situation as
regards purchases in this country
would have been very serious. No
doubt the obligations of the Allied gov
ernments could have been sold here on
the public market in considerable
amounts, but not in sums which would
been made by the United States gov
ernment.
"It is impossible for this country to
60 on indefinitely increasing it's ex-
ports without increasing its imports.
Gold settlements are out of question.
and the only remaining alternative is
to take securities. AS a temporary
expedlent this is to be commended
and we urge it strongly. 1t cannot
be too often repeated or too urgently
stated that our hope for foreign trade
this year and in the immediate future
is dependent upon our taking pay in
foreign securities or promises. Our
wouldbe customers have nothing else
to give. They cannot spare gold, they
cannot even send goods until they can
first import raw materials, and thew
are still dependent upon US for guam
titles of foodstuffs."
New-York tribune., 1919-04-01

1t must be remembered that ster-
ling exchange was pegged only from
going one way. There was nothing
to prevent the quotation from ris-
ing had it so willed. To say that
exchange was "pegged" is mislead-
ing; it was merely supported. The
process was simple. If you had a
claim on London for certain
amount J. p. Morgan & Co. would
buy it from you at a fixed rate Of
S4.76 to the pound, which was a
discount of only per cent from
the par exchange of $4.86. There
was no sense in selling your claim
to anybody else unless he offered
you as much or more for it. But
as sterling exchange had been sup
ported, not at par but at a dis
count, the next logical step for the
British financial authorities would
have been to support it here and in
London at a greater discount. If
exchange threatened to become de-
moralizcd, that is very likely what
the British government would do.
But in the meantime both Ameri-
can and British importers and ex-
porters are worried and hesitant.

a statement issued at the department,
"coupled with the similar decree en-

Allis- Chalmers Action Puzzles

In view of the optimistic statements
that have appeared concerning the con-
dition of the AllisChamlers Manufact-
uring Company the recent action of
the common stock has been perplexing
to traders. Yesterday furnished a
typical example. In the morning the
stock attracted some attention by a
rise from 35 to 36as, but later, on COM
paratively light offerings, the price
dropped back to 35. The closing bid
price was 35 u, with the stock offered
at 35%. Reports have been heard for
some time that an estate has been
liquidating its holdings and this was
offered yesterday as possible explain
alton for the failure of the stock to
advance much above the SO level. 1t
was learned that the company has re-

Half Billion Nearly Gone
While no bonds have been issued
heretofore, advences already made and
others in prospect to railroads bring
the corporation within sight of pos
slbie exhaustion of the half billion
dollars authorized as original capital.
The bonds are expected to be pur-
chased largely by banks and big bust

rate and the short term feature. This.

great risks. If the British govern

tinued support, but support to be-
come effective oHSy at gradually
lower levels, it could have returned

Credit Negotiations Wait

Credit negotiations between private
interests in certain of the European
countries and bankers here have been
postponed indefinitely, it was learned
yesterday, pending a strengthening out
of the tangle of issues at the peace
conference in Paris. Bankers have
received inquiries for credits from the
French, Belgians, Swiss and Scandi-
navians, but any serious consideration
of loans has been put off until the fog
of uncertainty surrounding interna-
tional affairs is cleared away. The
threat of worldwide Bolshevism is
also factor that has halted credit
negotiations

Yesterdays decline of French
francs to COS to the dollar, prac-
tically the lowest rate for francs
ever touched here, and the further
decline Of Italian exchange, lead
to doubt Of the wisdom of these
countries and Great Britain in "un-
pegging" exchange. The British
governments withdrawal of sup
port from sterling exchange in this
market has been characterized by
at least one American banker of
international reputation as "ama-
teurish." Either it was right for
Great Britain to have kept sterling
pegged or it was not right. Finan-
ciers may agree that it was right
to have kept it stabilized at a GER
tain level when the war was going
on, and that it would be right to
have exchange completely unpegged
year from now; but they can
not be expected to agree that it
should have been pegged three
weeks ago, but not week ago. In
other words, the process of unpeg-
gjng could have been started
either earlier or later than it was {;
and in any case confidence could
have been better maintained and
the return to normal conditions
brought about without the tenn
porary creation of highly abnor-
NAL condition, if the process of un-
pegging had been carried out more
gradually and over comparatively
long period. This would not have
been difficult. Instead of being al
lowed to "seek it's own lever' right
away, the quotation Of sterling could
simply have been pegged at lower
level.
