rect and active participant only in
case the machinery established by
such enterprise and its resources
were inadequate
Evidently some modification of
this opinion has taken place If we
may Judge from the recent revival
OF interest and support toward max
ing available the billion dollar ex-
port fund of the war finance corpo-
ration Reasons which might be
put forward for this change of mind
are the unanticipated delay in tho
house over the Edge bill, and the
opening by the British government
recently OF an exports credit office
for the assistance and encourage
ment OF the British export trade In
view of the fact that the British
plan will bring about substantially
the same assistance to British ex-
portars as has been proposed
through the suggested amendments
to the war finance corporation act
Ii may easily be taken as a reason
for the return of interest toward a
similar measure en- this side of the
waLter.
On the other hand there would
seem to be a deeper and far more
potent explanation for SO pro

this matter of foreign credits In

portions
Again, the banking condition Of

is not in a position to largely In
crease It's lending activities. Bank
ing conditions, rs reflected by the
latest statement of the New York
banks, about the best Bp-to-date in
dex we have of the country's bank
ing condition, show that loans are
running TO an enormous FOfuflie- "A
the same time the weekly statement
OF the Federal Reserve bank shows
that huge rediscounting is going
on. These details simply emphasize
the fact that capital for Investment

is far from plentiful at the present

Considering these aspects of the
