make important substitutions and readjust- ments within our territory that would contribute to the relief of domestic busi- ness situation. Such readjustments are III part already under way Indeed it is not at all clear that the uncertainty as to the ln- ternational situation is an unmxed evil. In forcing us to look more closely for possible readjustments at home, consequent efficiency may. in the end, bring some lasting benefits.
 It may appear the easiest way in our present dilemma to let international matters take their natural course and to concen- trate upon the home market. IL may be well doubted however, that the final cost of such a course in money and energy will be less to the nation than course that would call for our active cooperation in the international economic and financial reconstruction that Is necessary to a recovery of the buying ca pacity of the rest of the world. In any event the policies of hermit nations do not lead into the path of progress Large in dustrial nations will continue to have polit- ical and, in some cases, even racial bound aries but they can longer have econ omic boundaries Economic units and the forces that control their actions are now worldwide Moreover, the resumption Of our pre-war prosperity and the continuance of our normal growth involve an ever-ln- creasing dependence upon international con ditions. The whole course or 0ur future economic development therefore, lies clearly in the direction of larger cooperation in international economic activities.

Railroad Facts Wanted.
(NeW York POSt.)

Last Wednesday Mr. Walker D. Hines discussed he problems of railroad efficiency before the Amer can Economic Association at Pittsburgh. It must ave been weeks before last Wednesday that Mr. Julius Krutschnit was at work upon his article on Railroad Efficiency" in the January Atlantic. Nevertheless, Mr. Hines and MT.

 be compulsory consolidation into few

 ought to be fully consolidated. To this MT. Kruttschnitt replies by anticipation and addressing himself to another opponent than MT. Hines
 The consolidation of railroads into few
 large systems changes in methods of fnanc-

 it would be possible to a second billion

 second clash the question of wages. To MT. Krutschnitt the burden of Government trolled wages under which railroads suffer is the essence of the problem. Mr Hines is skeptical about wages. At least he speaks out boldly of the erroneous impression upon the public mind creat ed by talk Of the hundreds Of millions Of dollars to be saved through the modification or abrogation of the so-caed national agreements in the shop crafts. No such savings are to be expected, says MT. Hines
 The impression is unavoidable that have not yet in hand body of facts and figures sufficient either in scope exactness to form the basis for a thorough discussion of the and future of the railroads. Messrs. Kruttschntt Hines agree upon this thing: criticism, whether directed against the railroads behalf the railroads is far from being what it ought to be MT. Kruttschnitt fer the railroad managers, welcomes criticism preferably fair criticism, if it shows reasonable respect for the facts. MT.

AMERICAS PROSPERITY AND FOREIGN
 TRADE.

Americas industrial progress is inextricably linkf with her foreign trade and it is impossible for t United States achieve it's pre-war prosperity by revival of domestic business alone. Dr. Henry A. Chandler, economist of the National Bank of Cor merce in New York takes issue with those who l lieve that, since foreign trade represents not mo- than 10 to 15 per cent of America's total con merce, the loss of part of it would leave su ficent percentage of the whole to insure reasonah prosperity In the January number of the bank magazine, Commerce Monthly, he points out th economic investigation proves that
 even during periods of depression, volume of national business, after allowing for price changes, seldom departs from normal by more than Is per cent. and often by smaller per centages; and a seemingly small reduction in the percentage of gross business may have great significance when translated into terms of net profits and thus into final buying capacity.
 In view of the decline in foreign buying capacity it has been suggested that we may have to reduce output to conform much more nearly to domestic demand and thus in the future prevent the accumulation of sur pluses similar to those that have recently demcralizcd some of our principal markets Undoubtedly such reduction can be effected in part and indeed. to some extent, has all ready been done, but practical move ment upon large scale it is beset with great difficulties.
 If for example, we lose only per cent. of total national business through the reduction in our foreign trade it does not that each industry loses only per cent. The relative importance of foreign trade varies widely as between different in dustres. In some the proportion of foreign total trade is insignificant while in others it is as high as one-third nearly one-haf It is possible, therefore, that a reduction in foreign trade. amounting to more than per cent of total trade, may so ef fectively cripple of our basic industries to wipe out all profits and even to bring heavy losses.
 Our domestic trade will of course con- tinue to be of much the larger importance in our economic life, and even if international economic affairs should remain in highly unsettled condition we would, undoubtedly
