they made the bulk of their pur- chases here, but only on condi- tion that they would be willing to relinquish large part of their gold.
 Resist Loss of Gold
 It is difficult to believe they would do so. In the last war they resisted this to the last. But with their very existence at stake, however, they might be driven to this desperate measure. But no war in which two or three or more minor powers are involved would help us much this way. However, while this might stimu- late trade a little, think it might be quite simple to prove that any vast flow of gold to us as a result of a world war would most cer- tainly wreck our whole financial system.
 3. There is one way in which foreign nations at war could make purchases here. Foreigners at all times have large investments in America tEey own American government and corporation se- curities, property, etc. On the out break of war the nation of which they are citizens could seize all their holdings in America, issuing it's, own bonds in payment. This is "a forced loan. Italy has already resortcd to it. The government would then be able to sell these securities in the American market and use the proceeds to uby muni- tions, merchandise, etc.
 However, investors understand this. And thence whenever there is a threat of war they adopt vari- ous devices to circumvent this. In the case of Italy, however, this would not go far as her invest ments here are already pretty well cleared out. Tn the World War. with every European nation in- yolved, 1t is doubtful if this ac- counted through the whole period for more than a billion dollars.

No Credit Where Credit Isn't Due.

I ently we were out on the side walk joining in the fight on the side of right" When we pre- scented our bills later, Europe adopted the maxim that the cred itOr is always wrong. They hate us for what they owe us. But they would like to buy and pay us again with another consign- ment of hatred.
 England has had to default on $4,000, 100000 she owes us. She is still crushed under an appalling load of debt and taxation. France goes through a financial crisis at least twice a year. Austria and Germany cannot balance their budgets and Italy hasn't in sev- eral years.

can buy a European bond from a nation at war which is bound to end her war in bankruptcy? Eu-
 rope began the last war with cash. gold and credit and ended with the printing press. She would be- gin this time with the printing press.
 Needs Have Changed
 The last war gave us advan-
 tages which would be lacking
 now. l. It cleared our labor sit-
 uation. A million immigrants
 year poured in on our unemployed
 labor armies. The war stopped
 that. In 1915 the net immigra-
 tion increase was only 5O,OOO. 2. It relieved us of intense Euro pean competition. Europe's work CTS went into armies. Ours went into factories and we took over the markets they abandoned. We
 would get slight gain here, but only slight. 8. It helped our 000,00O of wheat abroad. Next year we sold $333,000.000. But now almost every nation has pro- ViQeu nefSelI WlLn BrhlH anu Ioou
 supplies. Italy is almost com
 pletely self-existent in this re- spect.
 Finally. war now, in the deli
 cate state of world finance, would
 be certain to produce imitation in the nation engaging in it with an inevitable wrecking of its whole
 economy and its destruction as customer for even the peace-time
 products 1t now buys from us. It is difficult to think of sim gle commercial advantage war
 could now bring us. We know
 something of the grandeur and
 misery of war profits, to para phrase Clemenceau. But this time there would be no grandeur to
 the war profits. They would be
 small and full of misery.

 trade gains from a war between
 Italy and Ethiopia?

And at that time Europe was a far heavier investor in America than she is now.
 No Great Gain Possible
 The simple truth is that we can not expect any very great amount of trade gain out of war unless the nations involved can borrow money here. If we sell them on credit, we will have to extend the most generous terms in history - nothing down and nothing a year. Europe has no credit.

Washington, Sept. 9-Plans are being laid in various quarters for attacks, both behind the scenes and in public, on Chairman Jesse Jones of the Reconstruction Fi- nance Corporation.
 Jesse seems likely to be in for plenty of trouble unless he can demonstrate that he isn't playing favorites with the Wall Street crowd (the Morgans at the head of the list) and other enemies of the administration. For the gang that has gone sour on Jesse is tough and usually rather effective. A couple of cabinet members, at last reports, were preparing to tell Roosevelt that "the worlds biggest banker" was playing too close with the presidents political enemies. But the chief complaint of the wrecking crew is that Jones is will ing to lend a hand--and a lot of government money to the law yers, bankers, and managing exe- cutives who raked in millions from big railroads now in receiVership and are anxious to start the same process all over again at the ex- pense of investors.
 The Missouri Pacific is still in the hands of the Van Sweringens, who are in the hand of Morgan. The Vans never put any money in it, but before going bust in 1893 it borrowed $23,0 1000 from REC under their auspices on the basis of a financial statement which REC lawyers publicly claim was ''an amazing act of concealment" of liabilities.
 The REC attorney also charge "concealment, m s representation. and secret profits" and the un- loading of millions of Van Swer- ingen speculative stocks on Mis- souri Pacific when 1t was in bad financial shape.
