 "A successful outcome of the con- ference for the limitation of arma- ments should do much to inspire con . fidence in the political stability of the world and when the governments of the various countries in Europe balance their budgets by limiting the amount of their expenditures to. the revenues received from taxation and cthcr sources, and discontinue the emission of new issues of uncovered paper money, there should follow a restoration of confidence in the eco ncmic and financial condition of Eu. rope. Judged from our own history after the Civil war, many years will doubtless elapse before some Euro pean countries can restore the nor nal value of their currencies, but if tho violent fluctuations in exchange which have marked the past two years can be prevented in future and a stabilization on some basis accom- plishtd, it will be possible ito engage in commercial and financial trans actions with Europe on much larger scale than at present If we wish to sell our surplus products abroad, it is evident that we must continue to exchange commodities with foreign countries, for where we sell we must buy. curtailment of production to meet merely American requirements would involve widespread unemploy- ment and would invite disaster. On the other hand, because of the great appreciation in the currencies of many foreign countries their labor rA t,.ttA T partly because of this fact and partly because of the high premium on dol lar exchange, they are able to under sell us In our own markets.

 There are many indications that the beginning of revival is not far dis tant. When it dose definitely set in. 1t will be followed in due course by a new era of prosperity. While the losses during the past two years have o~~' s'So>s CAptIicHCc mas been gained. and while experience is not transferable, except perhaps to a linn ited extent, the present generation of business men has several years of business activity ahead of it.
 In the light of this experience. we should remember, when we again en- ter into period of full prosperity that reaction will follow sooner or later and If the flow of the incom- Ing tide can be controlled so that the crest may not be reached too rapidly nor rise too high. the subsequent re- action will be less severe and the next period of industrial and commercial activity and general prosperity will be marked by saner methods. greater achievement along constructive lines and by longer duration than any which we have had before. We should not forget that the ebb of the tide Is always equal to the flow and that the ebb in the Bay of Fundy. where the tide risos highest is far greater than In safer harbors where the tidal fluctuations are more mod crate.
