AMERICAN BANKERS
HEAR LICHTENSTEIN
Famous Doctor Addresses Ameri-
can Institute at Minneapolis

Minneapolis, Mimi, July 21-When
America First is made to mean de-
crying the importance of Americas
foreign trade, it is we'll said, DR..
Walter Lichtenstein, executive secre-
tary of the First National bank OF
Chicago, told the American Institute
of Banking here today. On the con-
trary, he held, a large foreign trade
is vital to the prosperity of some of
the most important of Americas
business, particularly agriculture.
"All of us believe in America
First DR.. Lichtenstein said. That
is what we are here for, to do every
thing possible to aid and develop the
business of our own country. But we
are not giving aid and comfort If we
support a policy which is based upon
the theory that our foreign trade is
unimportant and that conditions will
right themselves if we will only look
to our own affairs.
cit is true that our foreign trade
amounts to possibly only five per cent
of the total business done in this
country, but, in the first place. any
business man will tell you that five
per cent difference often spells sue
cess or failure as the case may be. In
the second place, when we say that
our foreign business amounts to only
five per cent of the total business
done in this country, remember that
this is only general average includ-
ing every commercial and manufac-
turing activity known.
"Of the most important of all in
dustries, however, agriculture, the
foreign trade is vastly larger than
merely five per cent. We must ex-
port 250,O0O,O00 to 500,OO0,00O BUSH
Ella of wheat OF the 100000 or
100000 bales of cotton which we
produce yearly, 100000 bales must
be sent abroad in order to find a
market, and in Chicago we realize
that the large packing establishments
so vital to the business of the Middle
West, cannot prosper without large
foreign trade.
I'm short, the people who cultivate
our soil and who comprise nearly half
Of our population cannot find mark
ct for large proportion of their pro-
ducts unles SIS they can find foreign
buyers for them. How, then. can we
expect domestic business to prosper
unless foreign trade prospers, and
how can foreign trade prosper unless
our customers in the international
field are prosperous?
Surely, we want to set our own
house in order, but a part OF this set
ting in order must be the extending
of credits to our customers abroad"
American railroads, farms and
many of the other industries OF the
country were developed during the
Nineteenth Century largely by Brit
ish, French, German and Dutch capt.
tai invested in fixed assets In this
country, DR.. Lichtenstein added. It
behooves us now he said, TO put
Europe on its feet by using our sur
plus means in similar manner"

after pointing out that they all go TO
America after completing their

he concludes:
1.-THE helpfulness Of America. not

Chinese society which fills the far

of this have not been felt or under

At various points along the from

Russian trench line of 1917, peasants
who had been driven from their
homes by advancing armies, have
been returning, only to fined their
homes demolished and virtually every
thing gone excepting the bare land.
They have taken to the dugouts for
shelter until they are able to build
shacks upon their holdings
In scores of villages in this battle
area not one house has been left
standing. They were demolished
either during the fighting between the
Russians and the Germans or after

volumes I'm a single year and askimg

but, ~ many critics have pointed out,
Maquet without Dumas would hardly
be remembered today, while Dumas
without Maquet would still be Dumas.
Almost always, when he worked with
MaQuet, Dumas would suggest the sub

up an outline and put down chapter

NIL in the outline and afterwards Du-
mas would rewrite the whole story,
