PONY EXPRESS

SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 27.--Just 60
years ago the pony express which car
ried letters from st. Louis to San

rated. Today plans are being made to
establish a transcontinental airplane

1t was a great achievement when the

California in 1850. Its Inauguration
was preceded by the publication in a

world which supply Europe with food
and raw material.
III one takes the needs OF Europe as
whole her present need to purchase
food and raw material in order to main
tain life and restore her industries and
her subsequent need to purchase large
part of the material required for the re-
paration of the devastated districts, 1t Is
clear that total sum of 100000, 000, 900
is not an excessive estimate, especially
when spread over five or even 10 years.
Such an estimate merely means that
America will continue to have power to
sell her surplus productions of food,
raw materials and manufactured goods
for a number of years without needing
to buy a corresponding amount of goods
from Europe in exchange.
Experience will probably show that
from the level Of $4500 900 900 of Amer
ica's surplus exports in 1919 the amount
will probably decline year by year until
America is again purchasing from Eu-
rope goods and services to the extent
needed fully to cover Europe's purchase
from America
Bonds Safe Everywhere.
The security which would undoubt-
edly find the greatest favor in the
United states as well as in other coun-
tries would be bond, free of all taxes
both in the United States and in all
other countries, and therefore of great
value for the purpose of international
payment At what rate of interest such
bonds would have to be issued can be
gained only by experience, but it is evil
dent that a league of nations bond, in
tereSt and principal of which was guar
anteed by every member of the league,
would be the finest security that could
be issued. Its issue would assure to
American producers prompt payment of
their accounts. At the present moment
the chief security for the American
credits created is the purchaser and the
seller of the goods.
Under such a plan as | have sketch
ed the security would not only be that
OF the purchaser and seller of the goods
but collective credit of every member of
the league of nations Having regard to
the state of exchange and the state of
the money markets of the world, the
adoption of some comprehensive plan
for adjusting the situation cannot be
further delayed without involving the
danger of catastrophe.
Sir George explained that the opin-
ious-he expressed were his own. He
said that he was aware that the system
of banking credits and short term loans
which had carried Europe on during
1919 could not be extended through 1920
and that some adequate provision to
settle the international exchange rate
must be applied and that very quickly.
