By ARTHUR r. HERMANN
A survey OF official government
statistics revealed today that at the
end of the war the United States
will owe more money to foreign ma
tions than they owe America.
This surprising situation has
come about despite the fact that
the United States has shipped out
more than thirty-fye billion dol
lars in lend.lease goods.
The reason behind the buildup
in foreign holdings OF American
money and securities lies in the
fact that the United States, as a
part OF the war program. increased
its imports OF strategic materials
and stepped up its spending abroad
for the armed forces.
At the same time. the pre-war
level Of exports has been cut sharp
ly in order u devote the largest
proportion OF American production
capacity TO the war effort.
Lend.lease shipments have not
Offset Americas foreign spending
because no financial transactions
are involved In the transfers OF
war goods to foreign nations.
The wartime increase In foreign
holdings OF American money, secur-
tiles. and bank balances is estimat.
ed at five billion dollars, with fur tn
er increases in prospect before the
world returns to a peacetime Geo.

Far from being a burden upon
this nation In the postwar years.
however, the debt is considered by
economists to be a boon, In that
it will forIl the nucleus for a vast
ly expanded foreign trade pro-
gram once the war Is ended.
Government officials point out
that the United States fully expects
to extend loans TO foreign nations
after the war to aid them in re-
building their war disrupted econ
omies, and to stimulate foreign de-
mand for American manufactured
and raw products. The existance
OF the FIVE billion dollar pool will
accelerate this demand.
According to these experts. one
OF the factors which tended TO
limit the amount OF United States
exports before the war was the
scarcity Of American dollars

PEOPLE who are very tall
often are envious OF shorter per
sons. and those VINO are shorter
frequently would like 10 be taller
| suppose that is because all OF hs
want 10 approach what IS average
for the group.
ItIsan interesting fact that the
present generation OF people ap-
psrentivis taller than It's forbears.
This has been shown by the figures
obtained IN taking measurements
OF men 20 to % years Of age IN
Quoted into the armed services IN
Nav. 1913. The average heignl
without shoes for this group was
Gsl5 inches as compared with an
average OF 67.49 inches for the
first million men Of - to 30 ex-
sntiued during the last World war
in 1917. In other words, the aver
age height was about tvo-thirds
Of an inch more N ls4a than IN
1917.
Not only has the average height
increased. but the proportion OF
tall men S greater than during the
last war. More than p per cent OF
those 90 20 80 years Of age were
over FIVE feet. ten inches tall IN
1913 as compared with 22.4 per
cent. I'M 1917. There were about : .
per cent. more six-footers in l9iS
than in 1917, which means the pro
portion is one-third greater at
present, than II was quarter OF
a century ago. It is interesting to
note that the average height OF
selectees over rs was less than the
average height Of those under 20.
In other words. the older men were
Of someN nat lesser stature than
the younger ones.
These figures are Substantiated
10 a great extent by number OF
studies which have been carried
OUT IN SCnOOl CuAlulcut
For example. in Toronto II was
shown that the average elementary
school boy or girl in 1889 was &C
tually two inches taller than the
child Of the same age in 1892.
These increases in height can De
taken as a measure OF improve
ment in physical well being.
Great alarm mas been expressed
from many sources over the high
rejection rates Of men applying
for enlistment in the army during
this war as compared with the last,
but it would appear entirely prob
able thatthe difference is due TO the
fact thai higher standards have
been set during this war. and not
because more young people are
suffering from physical disorders
than heretofore.
There can be no doubt that
nutrition. and preventive health
measures have improved greatly in
the last quarter Of a century. OF
course, we have not yet come any
where near the desired goal Of per-
lection.
With continued advances in our
knowledge Of nutrition and the
wider application of measures for
building good health. the coming
generations Of America will in all
likelihood, show even greater gains
in physique and stamina than
those obtained today.
