RED CROSS APPRECIATED

Bishop John N. Mccormick of the dio- cese of western Michigan has a letter from friend in France saying: T hear that the people at home have a very mixed attitude toward the record and value of our Red Cross. Our soldiers have but one. Those who, when they first arrived, spoke rather scornfully of the probabilities of what they would accom- plsh for the army, are talking today in solid praise and respect for the Red Cross workers with whom they have come in contact at the front. When amateurs undertook colossal business there must be blunders and regrets, but please tell people that the American Red Cross in France is gloriously making good. If our soldiers are content it is enough. That the people of France are content I would elucidate for you as long as the light of day Iasee.'

A WORLD RECORD

II we LOOK IOTWarQ to June 30 or .nls year and base an estimate. part of which is reliable because authentic figures car be obtained from the department of com merce, then it is reasonable to presume that the money value of our exports fol the entire fiscal year will De considera bly in excess of $6,OO0. .O000G0. Further more if our imports are maintained foI the remaining five months of the fisca year at the rate which has character zed the imports for the first sever months, then the total of our imports measured by money. should be approx imately g, 500, 0,O0O. The estimate is rath CT rough but it will serveythe purpose for which it is made. For it makes it reasonable to surmise that the favora ble balance of trade-for the F months ending June 30 will be between $4, coo. 900, 600 and 5000, GOO ,0O0.
 Moreover it will not be greatly dimin- shed by the so-called invisible items such as money paid on account of oui debt to European investors. That debl has been almost extinguished, if no quite.
 No great amount of money will bs placed in letters of credit. Some months perhaps some years, will pass before Americans in their summer excursions to Europe expend as much as $1OO, GOO, 900. Therefore almost all of this excess in our export trade over our import vii represent the actual balance in our ia vor It will be billions. No wonder that Mir. Morgan and his associates have ne gotiated with Great Britain for the con version of short time notes into long time bonds which will remain permanent ly in the United States. It is easy to un derstand why Belgium has obtained ont credit of 5000, 900 and is to obtain an other, as we'll as one from Canada. The reasons are excellent. for they are based upon Secretary Redfield's report of our international commerce and they show why his associate in the cabinet. Sec retary Glass. speaks frankly of the neef of expending large credits to Europe hoping that Congress will be influence by his statement For this unparal eie excess in .he money value of our export over that of our imports demonstrate that in some way or other the nation that are buying of us will have to find
