Hoover FayOrs Credit
 For Foreign Buyers
Declares They Are Necessary to Speed the Conditions of the World to Normal.

Chicago. Dee. 21.-Necessity for es- tablishing credits in this country for foreign buyers if the world is to re- turn to normal speedily is emphasized by Herbert Hoover. former food ad- ministrator, writing in Farm and Home for January.
 Reviewing world economics from 1917 to 1921. inclusive, MT. Hoover pointed out that the farmer here and in other countries has maintained pro- duction, while manufacturing, mining and transporta tion has Slackened enor- mously since the armistice'
 In his review the man who virtually rationed the world through the war emphasized that:
 '.The world situation is such that all our foodstuffs will again be needed if the world is to be carried over with out starvation. In the great American export staples of grain, meat and dairy products there is a sufficiency to get the world through-but only on a mar row margin.
 'Europe's harvests this year were 80 per cent. of the pre-war normal and will not recover for some time. Russia may not be again exporting foodstuffs for some years. Reduced producing capacity of animals in Europe, due to under-feeding, is more serious than their leSSened number.
 There will be no considerable carry over of food supplies anywhere in the world on Aug. 1. 1920 The world will start fresh again next August. with only its then production to cover the year following.
 The only remedy he says Ifs the establishment of credits in the United States for foreign buyers. and seeing l that fair prices to our producers are 1 paid under these credits. Upon credits reVoives the sale of the American 1 farmers surplus. Credits cannot be established until we have peace. With the uncertainties of raIinca 1 ton of the treaty and the political chaos that might follow from failure to secure it's ratification, the Amer,car banker and investor has not felt justi 1 he'd in subscribing to European loans giving credits to European countries The consequence is unless we car 1 solve this problem. we shall have a glu of our export stables at home ana a ! the same time Europe will be starv. l ing"
 Of the present period Mir. Hoove, writes:
 We are going through a reconstruc
 tion period of great difficulty w
 have greatly inflated our nationa credits or currency with it's conse
 quential stimulus to speculation
 through easy money. We have 'ul
 extravagances on the part of thos
 sections of the community that hay
 had lar"er incomes than they can in
 telligently spend. We are faced wit
 great. disruptions in the course of tn
 worlds commerce.
 ''All these troubles are to be expect ed out of q great world war. The could be 9. good deal mitigated if W
 could apply our national energies t [ their solution instead of holding talfest over industrialism and instea
 of iockeying for political position . Whether we will concentrate our mind , and energies on these problems, q
 not know, but certainly I see little in . 1 dicat tinn nf ii heraa lnnl,tS ?
