WASHINGTON, June Is QNS)
The White House today an
nounced the resignation of Ches-
ter c. Davis as war food admins

lack of authority over food policy
matters.
The White House also an
nounced that Judge Marvin Jones
of the United States Court of
Claims had been named by Presi-
dent Roosevelt 10 succeed Davis
as food administrator.
Davis, who served as food adj
miniStrator for a scant three
months, declared that he sub

responsibility while the authority,
not only over broad food policy,
but day to day actions is being
exercised elsewhere.

Notifications. Millions upon mil
lions of capital have been created
in Germany during the last 25 years
and capital which IS years ago, when
1 lived there myself, was rather
scarce, except in two of the finan-
cial centers, is now flush all over
the German empire and is eager to
secure investments and would be
glad to avail itself of opportunities
for safe investment at the rate of
4 or per cent; but absolute security
must be the main point of such

seem to be such safe place for
investment now, as the people over
there want.
failed to a certain extent in my
mission to form large European
mortgage company, whereby it would
be possible to place great sums of
money at the disposal of the farmers
in the state of Minnesota. The an
swer which I met on all sides was:
"We would rather take 112 and 2
per cent at home as interest on our
money where we know we will get
back when we loan dollar, whereas,
if we were to place money in your
country, we might expect to get only
53 cents back for the dollar loaned"
The rate of interest, therefore could
not be made attractive enough to
draw the capital to these fields for
investment at present.
Such are the views of the Euro
peans as a rule, and very naturally
so. I am positive with sound finan-
cial policy in the United States,
could induce European capital to be
placed here at reasonable rate of
interest, but repayment of principle
as has been agreed upon must be
faithfully and promptly lived up to.
