THE STATE OF BUSINESS

No one needs to be confused be-
cause there are constant attacks
upon the Federal Reserve Board, or
panics every week in Wall Street.
Wall Street is finding a lot of fault
with the Federal Reserve Board, and
its f1nanciers have easily forgotten
the fact that they were unable to
recover from their slumps and de-
pressions in the old days before the
Federal Reserve System was on
hand. to prevent sudden collapse.
The whole financial structure of the
Nation depends upon money issued
and supplied by the Government, and
it is well for everybody that the
Government is at last insisting on
certain rules of credit, and precau-
tions for the safety of the banking
world. 1t is needless to say that most
of the bankers of the country are
supporting the policies of the Fed
eral Reserve System, because all
conservative-minded people realize
that industry must be served in pref
erence to spectators.
In the present instance the FEEDER
al Reserve System is performing a
great service to America by actual
ly curbing the speculative mania
that apparently prevails among all
classes of citizens. Recent events
very clearly indicate that Uncle Sam
does not propose to allow the pros
perity of the country to be ruined by
recklessness, greed, or a riot in
speculation,

PEACE WINNING

AS they say at the prize fights,
this is Peace's round. War is weak
ening and taking a lot of punish
ment. Both in Mexico and China
grim-visaged Mars has been pound
ed into practical subjection. In both
those countries the legitimate gov
ernment comes out on top as rebel
lion is repressed. The only wars
of late years have been civil wars,
and now they seem to be about fin
ished with no more looming on the
horizon.
On the other hand the dove of
peace is cooling Justify over on the
banks of Lake Leman. The talk is
all about disarmament, limiting
navies, scrapping big guns, con-
demning poison gas, bombing planes
and sneaking submarines. The very
powers who have been suspected
most of evil and secret designs are
the loudest in their shouts for the
securities of peace. They would go
further than the nations with clean
records in their disarmament de-
mands and arbitration agreements.
Well, if we all want peace why
can't we have it? Especially now
that the Tacna-Arica dispute has
again been settled!-The Pathfinder.
