American Capital in Canada.

E. L. Chickarot in Current History Magazine.
Though previous to the opening of
hostilities the extent of American
capital in Canada was insignificant in
comparison with British. it so rapidly
increased that at the end of 1919 the
total investment of United States
funds in Canada was variously es
timated at from S1,25O.O00.OO0 to
was only double this. In the early
months of 1922, Sir Lomer Coin,
speaking In the federal legislature,
announced that the extent of British
capital in Canada was about two and
a half billions and that Of the United
States two billion. With the unprece-
denied activity of American money,
any with British funds at a stand
still. the year 1922 went a long way
toward equalizing this.
The year 1922 set up a new record
in American investment in Canada,
the total of Canadian bond sales in
the United States being over $751;
100000. or s37,000.000 in excess of the
previous highest figure reached in
1920. Add to this investments of a
represented in the sale of bonds. and
it would not be difficult to account
for well on to S300,00o,000 for the
year. Only once has Canada received
a larger amount of capital within a
year; this was in 1918, when the total
value Of Canadian bond sales In the
United States and Great Britain was
S327,000,000, or approximately but
s60,000,000 more than the sale in the
United States alone in 1922 During
Canadian bond sales in the United
States and Great Britain -totaled only
s173. 600, 900. or $50 100000 less than
the United states aggregate in 1922,

From the August Arts ana Decoraton
I believe American ladies can now

here. We have been having an en-
traordinary and rather silly inquiry
why more English girls do not be-

there are hundreds of thousands of
young women out Of employment,
many of them drawing the state pay
which. Il hard burden for the tax

There are exceptions. but most SER
wants. especially those in middle-claSs
well cared for, and live very much
as members of the family do. But
there has grown a feeling that it is
much more ladylike to be a powder
faced little tYpist. even if her SPELL
ing is defective and her knowledge
of punctuation existent. Girls
want to be free in the evening, and
the English practice of late dinner
makes that impossible to domestic
servants.
The inquiry gave an opening for
representatives of innumerable So
rieties to rush forward and give testi-
mony how the life of servants can

that all servants halls should be pro-

allowed to visit the damsels, that gold

who have given good service for a
number of years, and SO on.
No doubt the loneliness. the restric-
lions and the feeling among other
girls that r. servant cannot be claSSed
as a lady, causes much of the present
shortage. But practically nothing has
