chants, bankers, investors, or manu-
facturers may not feel justified in TAX
ing the risk of supplying Europe with
the vast quantities of things her peo-
pie need to purchase upon credit.
Even nations, as separate entities,
may not he willing to accept the risk.
By a combined effort, however, and
by spreading the risk over the entire
world, the nations can well afford to
supply all the goods and credit need
ed for the complete restoration of
Europe. Should they fail to save Eu-
rope from destruction, they them
selves will suffer in the catastrophe
that will result from failure"
The League of Nations, he says,
should be convened at the earliest
possible moment to restore peace
throughout the world and devise
measures for protecting the world
from calamity of starvation through
the breakdown of credit No single
nation is strong enough to supply
Europe with all the credit it needs
in the next year. But "the League
of Nations, comprising practically
the whole world, would possess the
necessary strength, and, acting in
cooperation, a League of Nations
loan would be so good that it would
be readily accepted for all food and
materials for which payment could
be made in kind The burden would
be insignificant in comparison with
the benefit following the immense
expansion that would subsequently
take place in trade and commerce.
Already" says he, "too much time
has been lost in arranging for the
cooperation of the nations in order
to overcome the economic and finan-
cial danger to which the world has
been exposed. Further delay will
indeed be perilous."

WEAR OLD CLOTHES
Longer, SAYS BANKER
Decreased Buying Would Bring Much

Decreased Buying Would Bring Much
Needed Savings, Reynolds Declares
Chicago, Dec, -(Special) al)-George
M. Reynolds, president of the Cont
MENTAL and Commercial National Bank
addressing the Cook County Bankers
Association at Hotel Lasalle last night,
declared that the real cure for the
abnormally high cost of living lies in
wearing old clothes little longer in
stead of buying new ones, and in buy
ing fewer luxuries.
There is great demand for increas
ed production" he said. 81 say there
should be demand for decreased
buying and greater saving. People
should be less riotous in their buying.
Wear old clothes as long as possi-
BILE and buy conservatively.
Decreased buying would pull the
United States out of the dumps quicker
than anything else. Yet our stores in
Chicago are crowded each day with
buyers.
81 am not suggesting boycotting our
merchants, but l do feel we should
wear our clothes little longer and con-
there is nothing in present financial
situation to be alarmed about. Money
is going to be close and expansion of
credits has come to point where it
behooves everyone to be careful; but
there will be no financial stress.
A large amount of money has been
going into stock market speculations
and commercial use. That is the real
reason why money is close.
Regarding foreign trade, he said:
Americas position at the end of the
war finds us the envy of Europe and
Asia Financial circumstances and a
60 per cent difference in exchange
makes it almost impossible for Ameri-
can manufacturers to do business with
Europe. Unless means are found to
sell goods in Europe without feeling
this high rate of exchange, we must
be denied this golden opportunity that
we believed would present itself at
the end of the war.
"Many suggestions have been made,
but the failure of the Government to
ratify the peace treaty has presented
consideration of the most possible
and probable method in which the
Government might undertake by CO.
operation with an organization backed
by a billion dollars or more to place
American goods in Europe on de-
ferred payment or other basis" Mr..
Reynolds also told the bankers that
their business was unique in that
there had been no profiteering during
the war.

RECORD-BREAKING
DEMAND FOR steel

Semi-fnished steel is almost as
difficult to obtain in the open mar
ket for domestic shipment as for ex
port. 1t is only in exceptional in
stances that billets, sheet bars and
skelp can be purchased. Tin plate
mills have not opened their books
for 1920, but, when this is done, it
is almost certain that no business
can be taken for shipment before
April.
The calling off of the coal strike
and return to work of further large
numbers of steel strikers will mean
an early increase in output Of pig
iron and finished steel and are, there.
fore market factors of first import
ance. There has been a growing
tension in the market in the past
week as various consumers have at
tempted to get hold of enough pig
iron, or rolled material, to protect
them against shutdowns. Believing
that the mills would be wrestling
for months with short deliveries due
to strike, a number of buyers OF
finished steel, including some large
companies, tried to contract for the
first half of 1920. The effort has
been to disturb the market with in
creased offering of premiums fo1
early delivery Several steel com
panies, however, have refused to
take premium because in view of the
untitled orders on their books and
have continued to oppose higher
prices as tending to derange deliv
cries and unduly accentuate existing
scarcity.
Steel manufacturers believe that
next year will witness record
breaking demand for steel rails, cars

railway equipment. They have made
close study of the situation and
