uation by creating a market for Ameri
can products through attaching condi-
! tionS to foreign loans and the preven-
tiOn of the waste of American credit
through its use unproductively by the
borrowing Governments to make up
deficits in their budgets or for cxpend-
turr on armaments. The latter end has
apparently been gained.
Loans to foreign Governments have
under present conditions become of vast
diplomatic importance. In sense they
always have been. for close relations
of the past have been built upon mn ac-
cess 10 the loan market of an ally. 1t
was on this that the Russian French
Entente before the war was based. But
they are doubly important now. with
credit scarce and most foreign nations
OF Importance soon to be in the market
for loans.
Foreign Governments have usually
had such relations with their bankers
that loans were only made where the
Governments had certain diplomatic
ends in view. This statement applies
Of course to Government. not to private
borrowings abroad. This Government
in the past. maintaining its isolation
has never found II necessary to in
fiucnce loans made by American bankers
to foreign Governments. Participating
in world affairs as it does today, it is
| compelled to follow the policy of Eng
land the great creditor nation of the
past, and intimate to bankers what
| loans abroad il regards as desirable and
what loans it regards as undesirable.
Strengthens Hand of L. S.
Cooperation of this sort strengthens
the hand of the Administration diplo-
matrnlly. 1t may use the position Of
this country as the great reservoir of
credit more effectively in co operation
! with the international bankers than it
could without that co operation.
! All along the line there is develop
ing operation between government
and business. such as has never before
existed in this country. Mr.. Mellon
makes it little more possible in bank =
ing than heretofore. because he Is one
Of the big bankers of the country with
more than a local point of view. Mr..
Hoover is cffecting it among business
men interested in foreign trade. because
he is himself a business man and be-
cause he knows more about foreign trade
than the American producers gener-
ally. He inspires an extraordinary con-
tidrnrc in the business world.
In shipping the Administration is put
ting into effect business policy. II
is not demanding that shipping mon
carry the losses Of the war. but will
write off two thirds, probably of the
cost Of war-b built ships as war cx-

PEACE RESOLUTION
Up IN HOUSE TODAY
Agreement Reached to Take
Vote on Measure Next
Monday Afternoon
TREATY PLANS UNDER WAY

Washington. June II. --- The Porter
peace resolution. as reported by the
House Foreign Affairs Committee. which
would terminate the state OF war be-
tween the United States and Germany
and Austria without repeating the dec
larations of war. was scheduled to be
called up for debate today with agree
ment already reached for vote Monday
afternoon. Nearly one hundred mem
oers. have applied for allotment of
speaking time during the two days OF
debate.
Passagc by the House yesterday by
unanimous vote of the Sweet BILL con-
solidating Government agencies which
zeal with former enlisted men, cleared
the way for the peace resolution. The
rouse spent more than a week con-
siderinR the consolidation measure
winch would create n veterans bureau
IN the Treasury Department. and estab-
llshed fourteen regional offices to handle
expeditiousy claims of on service men
Tor compensation, hospital benefits or
vocational training. The bill now goes
to the Senate.
Peace BY Treaty Planned
Peace with the Central Powers is to
be established by treaty not by con-
gressional resolution. Official assur-
ances to that effect we're given Yesterday
IN the highest Administration quarters.
Whether the Knox resolution adopted
by, the Senate. or the Porter resolution
substituted by tho House, is the ono
.ventuality utilized, it will do nothing.
II is said officially. except put an end to
the psychological unrest consequent
upon prolongation of technical state Of
war That can be brought about only by
covenant or treaty, and that is the
method which is to be evoked.
Another significant admission was
forthcoming in the snme high quarter
that the Administration has not receded
from its intention to 'engage under the
existing treaty in re- establishing re-
lntions with Germany. 1t is an open
secret the delay in congressional action
in declaring technical war at an end
has been due to the Administration
desire to work out feasible plan for
engaging under the existing treaty"
To Utilize Versailles Pact
Secretary Hughes inclines strongly
toward utilizing all those portions of the
Treaty Of Versailles which are necessary
to protect American rights both as
against enemies and against associates
in the war. The clauses of the treaty to
which the United States objects. or
which have no interest for the United
States-sucb as the covenant of the
League Of Nations-are to be covered
by blanket reservation"
1t was made unmistnkably plain yes
terday that Mr.. Harding adhcres liter
oily to the intention proclaimed in his
message to Congress on April 12 not to
engage in any separate peace with the
Central Powers.

men who take leading part in the

pated today in the exercises in conncc
ton with the laying Of the cornerstone
of the Metropolitan Trust Co.. at the
northwest corner Of Eighteenth and
Market streets.
Reviewing results which have been
achieved by enterprises on Market street
west of Broad. several speakers con
tended that the thoroughfarc had bet
ter opportunity for development than
any other street in the city~
Tustin Lays Stone
The ceremonies opened at noon. D-
rector Tustin. of the Department Of
Welfare. laid the corner stone. In the
stone was placed n small asbestos box
which contained coins Of 1920 from one
cent to dollar. a history of the or
ganization of the bank and other data,
al of which was wrapped in an Amcri-
can fog.
John Walton, n vice president of the
bank. presided. He predicted that the
bank would be one Of the greatest in
stitutions in the city and would give
the highest grade of service. He
prophesied that the people in the
neighborhood would call the insttu-
tion "our bank"
Mr.. Walton then introduced Director
Tustin. Mr.. Tustin paid tribute TO the

street and referred to the Stanley Thea
tire and its results as proof of this con-
tention.
Jules Mastbaumn. president of the
Stanley Co. of America, who was the
next speaker, said:
Eleven years ngO we were putting
moving picture shows on Market street
east Of Broad against the objections of
merchants and banks. Now the banks
and merchants take an entirely different
view.
West of City Hall on Market street
presents the best chance of development
in the city.
Great Traffic There
The Stanley Co. did not take the
site at Nineteenth and Market streets
loT TIC CtuHlcy
but because Market street is a main
thoroughfare. Figures compiled by the
Philadelphia Rapid Transit Co. show
that more persons pass this corner than
any other in the city
