I'm pursuance of its general policy
Of having the government do every
thing, the Democratic administration
encouraged the belief that supplying
money to both individuals and nations
is one of the most important functions
OF government. The railroads were
taken over and deficits paid out Of
public funds. If Congress had permit
ted, this new national policy would
have been greatly extended. Even af-
ter the Armistice and the certainty
that the war had terminated, there
was a disposition on the part Of the
Democratic administration to be as
liberal as possible in paying American
money to foreign nations.
THE Republican administration has
a far different conception Of the prop
er sphere of government activity. 1t
also has full understanding Of prop
err lines of investment for private cap
ital owned by citizens of the United
States. Mr.. Harding has made 1t clear
that the United States has no objec-
ton to American business men enter
ing into conference with foreign bust
ness men and negotiating loans of
surplus capital in the United States to
any enterprise or any nation desiring
to borrow the same. Those loans, of
course, would be made upon security
the sufficiency OF which would be de-
termined by the lenders. 1t is not the
province of government to say that its
citizens either shall lor shall not make
loans OF this character so long as
those loans do not conflict with the
international policies Of this govern
ment. In order that theer might not
be any such conflict the administra-
ton asked that before making loans
American financiers inform govern
ment officials what they contemplate
doing.
American business men who are
going to Europe to represent their
own interests and the interests of
their clients are among the ablest
financiers in the world. II 1t is pos
slble for a plan to be devised by which
loans can be made, these men can un-

pitfalls. A few others who are identified
with tuberculosis work in different
parts Of the country, although not en-
ployed by the government, will be ad-
mitted.
The grst school, which graduated %
physicians and 10 nurses who had
been carefully selected from the sc
hospitals Of the service, was patterned
after the summer school at Saranac
Lake, N. Y, with necessary adapta-
tons to the special work required.
Oteen hospital, with capacity of l.
100 beds, is near Asheville, N. c., and
is conducted especially for tuberculo-
sis patients. This delightfully."- situated
and easily accessible sanitarium was
built during the war by the Army and
waite later turned over to the Public
Health Service. 1t is in close proxim-
ity to the Public Health Service hos
pital at Biltmore.

trines advocated by Mr.. Harding.

ness. not OF government. Only in the
extreme exigencies OF war was 1t
proper for one government to loan
money to another and even then 1t is
doubtful whether the United States
was justified in going as far as 1t did
in loaning money to some OF the ma

money loaned by this government was
not used to help win the war.
