Sir Henry Thornton, who is report
ed to have solved the problem of roller
bearings for railroad trains, has been
general manager of the Great Eastern
Railway in England since 1914. He is
descendant Of an Old English family
which settled in Virginia about the
middle of the seventeenth century.
Like another railway 'expert in Eng
land--Sir Eric Geddes-he learned his
profession in the United States, where
he acquired great reputation, cspec.
tally in connection with the electrih-
cation of the Long Island lines. Sir
Henrys appointment as general man
ager of the Great Eastern railway in
1914 was received with "a great deal OF
criticism in England, but the criticism
quickly died away. Although he had
only held his post for a few months
when war broke out. his ability had
already been recognized. with the re-
suit that he was given high army rank
and in 1919 made Inspector General Of
Transportation.

ing the present disparity of exchange
American investment in foreign
securities is the most practical and
effective method Of dealing with the
current situation that has been sug.
gested. 1t is not an artificial device
designed to suspend uniformly the
operation of economic law. 1t is a
thoroughly sound measure wholly in
accord with economic law.
Every time loan is made to a
foreign government, city, or indus
trial enterprise, the foreign borrow
er obtains possession of American
dollars. The result inevitably is to
improve the exchange situation and
to enable the foreign borrower to
purchase American products. 1t thus
becomes apparent that the American
investor who prchases foreign securi-
ties is Directly aiding the export
trade Of the United States. Such
loans have, in the past, been funda-
mental to the expansion of British
and German foreign trade. Where
British money has been invested,
there have gone British railroad
equipment, British power plants, and
British industrial machinery.

can they occupy their plants approx
imately full time and thus give steady
remunerative employment to labor.
This applies to agricultural produc-
ton as we'll as to industrial.
As a result Of plant expansion dur
ing the war, the productive capacity
of the United States is far in excess
of the requirements of the domestic
market. Either the surplus must be
sold in foreign markets or production
must be curtailed. There is no other
alternative. If the surplus is thus
sold, we shall have occupation, activ-
ity, prosperity and satisfaction. If it
is not sold, it will not be produced
and we shall have unemployment,
stagnation, and disaster at home.
am inclined to believe that up
wards of rs per cent of the goods
which the United States is capable
of producing could now be sold
abroad with immense benefit to every
American whose labor and machin-
cry would contribute to the produc-
ton of the goods. 1t certainly seems
reasonably clear that foreign trade
must take over at least 20 per cent
Of our productive capacity, on the
sale of which prosperity of American
industy and agriculture depends. 1t
will not be sufficient for us to export
as much as we exported in 1918; we
are already doing more than that.
The foreign trade Of the United
States, both exports and imports, has
been larger in volume in 1921 than
It was in 1918. Yet in spite Of this
fact, we are everywhere greeted with
pessimistic statements that our for
eign trade has collapsed and that our
commercial isolation is now becom-
ing complete. The truth OF the mat,
ter is that the productive capacity
of the United States has been SO
greatly increased since 1913 that our
formal normal exports are moi
nearly enough to enable our factories
and farms to operate poftably at full
capacity.
THE Problems HEART.
In order to sell our surplus in fore.
ign markets, which is absolutely vital
Ito our domestic prosperity, we must
make corresponding purchases
abroad. Imports must pay for ex-
ports; trade both visible and invisible
must balance. What then can we
purchase? 1t is obvious that, for our
own agriculture and industry, our
purchases in foreign markets must
consist, so far as possible, Of raw
materials and merchandise which do
not compete with our own products
But the quantity Of non-competitive
raw materials and merchandise which
Can safely be imported in the United
States at the present time is definite
ly limited and cannot equal the vol
ume Of our own products which, we
believe, it is necessary to sell abroad
IF, therefore, we are to avoid indus
trial stagnation at home, we must
try to maintain steady excess OF
visible exports, until such time as the
increased power Of consumption OF
the United States enables us to asSim-
ilate the excess Of visible imports
The gazette-times. [volume] (Heppner, Or.) 1912-1925, 1922-03-09

which our position as creditor ma
tion makes inevitable sooner or later.
This present excess of visible ex-
ports over visible imports cannot be
liquidated by gold Importation
there is not sufficient gold available
outside Of the United States-nor
would it help American agriculture
or industry if such importation were
made. believe this liquidation can
be accomplished safely and proEtably
only by the importation of securities
that is by the sale of foreign securi-
ties to American investors.
To MAINTAIN BALANCE.
This method would not only main
tain the current trade balance, and SO
tend to prevent further distortion
Of the exchange, it would also have a
beneficial effect upon the present ex-
change situation by reducing the
huge excess of exports built up dur
ing the last six years, which excess
is, itself, a prime factor in produc.
