the bushes OF the country. Fur
ther additions to our stock of gold
would tend to raise prices and bring
in their train the evils attendant
upon imitation.
To rectify this situation Amer
lea must provide credits here for
Europe. In practice this means we
must take Europe's promises to pay
and sell them to Americans who
have money to invest.
These promises to pay would be
either in the form of securities issued
by European governments, national
or municipal. or by European CORPORA
tions to be sold directly to American
investors, or they would be in the
form OF new securities issued by
American corporations which held
the original European securities as
collateral. The proceeds would be
used to compensate American capital
and labor for the goods produced and
sent to Europe. Thus. Americans
with money to invest would be assist
ing Europe to rehabilitate herself
and at the same time would be keep
ing the productive machinery of their
own country going. II this Is the
best way in which we can aid land
such is the opinion OF the closest and
most competent observers OF the
problem, the extension of assistance
to Europe depends upon Americas s
capacity to absorb foreign securities
quite as much as IL does upon her
ability to produce the things which
Europe needs.
The extent to which a people can
absorb securities depends upon the
amount of money they have avail
able for investment. and upon the
amount of credit which they com.
mand OF credit Of the fiourishing
condition OF their economic life and
the prospects of its greater develop
ment. How fiourishing the general
condition Is may be inferred from
the condition of the great basic
industries - agriculture, mining.
manufacturing and transportation -
and Of these agriculture is funda-
mentally important.
BY this industry the primary
need of man is served and therefore
the state of all others rises or falls
with 1t. A large percentage of the
cost of production in every industry
Is for labor. and 20 per cent Of the
wages of labor Is expended for food.
Therefore, any change in the condi-
tion of the farming industry is im-
mediately reflected in every other
industry. In every country II is a
barometer of prosperity"

and financial strength to which our
country attained during the war are
inextricably bound up with the re-
vival Of prosperity in Europe. We
moved long since past the point
where we could even consider the
possibility of economic self-su1i-
cheney.
The Exchange situation.
The extension of assistance to
Europe depends primarily, of course,
upon the ability to produce the
things which Europe needs. and no
one who knows anything OF Amer
ica's resources would doubt the ca.
pacity Of her farms and mines and
factories to supply raw materials.
machinery. fuel, and finished goods
in any quantity that Europe might
require. To what extent and how
long the productive energies Of this
country will function depends. how
ever, upon the receipt Of compensa-
tion by those whose capital and la
Dor are used. Ordinarily they would
be compensated by the importation
OF things from Europe which we
need here. but which we do not pro-
duce at all or which are produced
more economically in Europe. but
under present conditions Europe is
either unable to produce these
things at all, or her production is so
out of proportion to the things
which she obtains from us as to
leave a huge balance, for which
compensation must be made In gold.
Extrasrdinary Balance.
This balance has now become so
large as to upset completely the or

are made with the result that the

ally, and other countries which re-
quire aid. In other words. the
prices those countries have to pay
for American commodities are in

increase the size of the balance and.
therefore, the premium on the dol

country by Europe and, accordingly.
to delay the resumption of business
there.
IF those countries had gold to
offset Americas balance of goods
the exchange situation would be
righted, but we should be flooded

Orpheum,

Two of musical comedy's popular
stars head the bill at the Orpheuml this
week, Louise Dresser and Jack Gardner
having been assigned the stellar honors.
Miss Dresser has won distinction in
musical comedy and drama. Jack Gard
ner, most likeable chap, also has won
distinction in the comic opera and mus
ical comedy field. 1t was probably in
the title role 1.-THE Chocolate Soldier"
and the principal role in Madam Sher-
ry' that he made his most distinctive
hits. Together, Miss Dresser and Mr.
Gardner are heard in a "cyce of ind-
vidual songs. Paul Decker, a light
comedian and Memphis favorfte, has
a comedy in which he shows entrance of
is called and Son." and it is de-
lightful bit of humorous writing splen-
didly played.
George Austin Moore, who has Just
returned from overseas, where for IS
months he has been entertaining the
soldiers, comes with a brami-neW as
sortment of songs and stories Is a
Memphis favorite, having appeared here
professionally on a number of occasions,
