| upon with favor. at least in the finan-
 cial district, any more than was the suggestion which was made by George c. Wickersham, formerly Attorney General in the cabinet of President Taft. that the United States send | receipted bill to the allies who have been securing credit or borrowing money in this country.
 More and more the impression tends towards real conviction that the only 1 way by which the payment of the great obligations to the United States can be in considerable part met is by the investment of American money in se- curities of foreign governments or foreign peoples. Nevertheless. difficult ties will arise if that principle be adopted. If Americans buy in large amounts. say from billion and a half to two billions of European securities
 each year. there would follow inevita- tries and those issued in the United States. The tendency might be to lower the price of our own securities. However, if highly approved European securities are brought to the United States for sale and If the terms are
 attractive they will undoubtedly com
 mand ready sale, even though there
 might be thereby created serious con-
 petition with American securities
 These are considerations which fore
 shadow financing probabilities of the
 future which in that way may exceed
 the amount of the financing which has characterized the United States since
 the war began, and especially since
 this country became one of the bellig-
 erents. Some of the ablest leaders Say
 that the outlook of future financing is
 such as to suggest conditions which aI-
 most stagger the imag agination. There IS no doubt, however, that the United
 states will remain for some years the
 best and the most convenient monev
 market and in that sense will retain

Foreign Loans and
 Our Own Securities
By HOLLAND

New York, February 12.-(SpeciaO The other day bonds which were is- sued while the war was raging by three of the cities of France, Bordeaux, Lyons and Marseilles, commanded in this market as high price as l02. When one looked at these quotations and then turned his eye to those which reported the market price for the va rious issue of Liberty Bonds. he dis covered that apparently the credit of the French cities is considerably better than that of the United States, at least reflected by bonds. The bonds of the French cities commanded ? per cent above par. The Liberty Bonds were from to per cent below par There is, however, no real impair ment of the credit to redeem the bonds at par when they become due. Many do doubt, however the ability of the Secretary of the Treasury Mir Glass, to float the fifth issue of Liberty Bonds successfully unless extra pres sure is put upon the banks or unless the rate of interest nominated in the bonds be as much , per cent.
 The excellent quotations for the bonds of the French cities have caused the comment to be made that as soon as possible the United States will be undertaking to aid our allies in the liquidation of the eight billions or even ten billions for which the treaS- ury department now holds the demand notes of our ally governments, and which as soon as peace is ratified will be converted into bonds, by the pur- chase of securities issued not by the nn2Yernments of Europe but by muni- 1io 1tfi1 Yer corporations.

Within the eighteen states compris-

people who are not only not identified
with any church, but who do not claim
to be christians, according to informa-
tion gathered by the Baptist rs Mil
lion Campaign. To try and reach these
people with the gospel is one Of the
aims Of the campaign and to meet the
problem the state mission organiza-
tion in the various states will set
themselves. To help these organiza-
tions in meeting that problem the sum
of $11,000,000 has been apportioned
from the total of S75,000,000 that is
sought for all purposes, and during the
next five years the state mission
forces will seek to reach these mil
lions of people right here at home with
re gospel and enlist them in some
phase of christian work.
According to this same source Of in
formation, it is learned that there are
1891 towns and villages in the South
with a population of 200 or more in
which there are no Baptist church or
CARNATIONS or no Baptist houses of
