The International bankers ex-
planned their viewpoint to the pres
ident in convincing manner. They
seemed to feel that American ex-
ports would increase Just as soon
as some sort Of political stability
came to Europe. They insisted
that there wouldn't be any need of
export finance corporations or spe-
cial measures of relief if somehow
there was an assurance of an abid-
ing social order in the countries to
which Americans had sold and
would sell large quantities of goods.
In other words, If peace were in
sured for Europe, there would be
more business for the American
farmer and manufacturer and more
factories opened and the return to
normally would be FASTENED.
Secs Ahead.
But there's the rub. The inter-
national bankers would like to see
America in the League of Nations
because they think that would fur
nish the necessary insurance.
President Harding sees further
ahead, however. He believes that
America would inevitably have to
use her military and naval forces
to insure peace. He thinks those
are avenues Of policy along which
the American people do not wish
to travel even at the expense of a
slower return to normal than
might otherwise be the case.
Bankers Views
Having been committed to a pro-
gram Of aloftness from European
political problems, Mr.. Harding
therefore appears to turn to other
kinds Of relief. And it surely is
perplexing for, amazing as it may
seem, these very international
bankers who years ago were the
champions OF protective tariff
are today frankly against the i'm.
position Of customs duties. They
say America must buy from
abroad in order to help European
industry back to its fest and unless
Europe can find markets she can
not rocupefate sufficiently to pay
for the loans she Is making. But
president Harding again inter.
poses IN objection. Tho call OF the
west u for . tariff 90 - to safe
guard the domestic market.

terest Of the manufacturing east |
and the agricultural west and
south, the interests Of city and
country, are in conflict. MIR. Har-
ding admits that the American peo-
pie will loan their money to Euro
pean countries. but seems to feel
that the bankers can make it pos
sible for that very money to be
used by Europeans in paying for
American exports. In tracing what
happened to the proceeds OF the
Belgian loan made recently It was
found that the money went to Ar
gentine to pay for wheat. The
president wanted to- know IL that
wasn't good illustration Of what
would happen with other loans. He
was told that while that money
went to Argentina, the latter
promptly used It to pay bills she
owed to Europe and In turn Euro
peans paid OF some Of the bills
they owed to exporters in the Unit
Cd States who, in turn, paid the
American producers. The bankers
insist that it all amounts to the
same thing-everything in the end
goes to pay the creditor.
Outstanding Faet.
One outstanding fact of the con-
ferences thus far is this: America
is on the threshold Of biggest in
vestment era in her history. The
United States government is about
to fund its loans by offerings to the
public. All the European govern
ments, including Germany, will be
anxious to make loansLto mort
gage their futures in the hope that
their skill, resources, and energies
will pay it all back in the next
generation or so and enable them
thus to accomplish their industrial
and commercial restoration. Poll
tics, national and international,
may be the spectacular side OF gov
eminent, but President Harding is
finding out that his entire admin
istratiou Will be much more con-
cerned with the problem Of busi-
ness and finance, domestic and for
eign, than anything else. Every

allies and that directly or indirect
ly much of that borrowing will be
done in the United States and in
congruous as it may seem, the in
vestors Of America will really be
leaning Germany money wherewith
to pay her war indemnity. This
always happens when the creditor
nation is victorious. 1t may be a
surprising fact to the layman, but
to the financier it is automatic
For instance the German people in
1871 actually loaned the French the
very money which France needed
to pay Germany an indemnity for
her defeat. Governments borrow
from their own people or from the
peoples Of other countries. In this
instance. America has the largest
supply Of gold Of any nation. Amer
lea is the most prosperous. Her
people will loan their money out at
attractive rates of interest. The
French have already offered sue
cessfully one hundred million dol
lar bond issue at per cent and it
has been gobbled up as a good
proposition.
More Loans Coming.
More loans like that are, OF
course. coming. President Harding
and his cabinet began to wonder
whether Europe would slowly but
! surely take 80 much money out OF
the United States that money need
ed to finance American railroads
for example, would be hard to gel
except at high rates OF interest. In
other words. he wanted to know
from the international bankers

situation In the United States II g
