The President himself takes pains to deny that his own action was Influenced by or had any con nectlon whnteier with the Initial step for peace taken by the Oerman Chancellor llowoer. It seems reasonable to suppose that tho Oirman action did not nt any rate retard tho PrnstiUnt .m ... obviously In line with his own view. Mr Wilson's mite may quite readily be con sldercd as but a single link In a chain ",f 0 f.H'nents that In the light of hind sight will come promptly into Mew. mtcmvi: jjoaiid "wahning- Not the least Important of these various links was tho "warning" gUen by the Fed eral Ileserve Hoard In the closlmt days of November to the national banks of the country urging thnt rnutMn be exerrlaed In discounting unsecured short-term treas ury bills of foreign countries Inasmuch ns only Anglo-Krcnch bills were being offered and as there was very slight likelihood of any offerings of considerable amounts on bolmlf of the Central Powers, the wiiriilnjr to that extent Is regarded as significant In the nll street dutrlet. This action in connection with the threat of embargoes upon exports of American products seems to suggest the possibility of a shutting down on American supplies to the Allies ns n possible Inducement to take n more open-minded view of Germany's proponnls. Thus at this particular singe thero seems encouragement to believe that aside from tho evident disposition of the Central Powers In the direction of nn enrly pence there Is to bo expected from now on a systematic effort on tho part of Washing ton to bring about such a result, not for getting Flmllnr efforts that aro under way r definite form among Huropenn neutral ccuntrlcs Hence the ear is ending In Wall street with n widespread belief tint It Is the con ditions that will follow peace and not those that nccompany war that will constitute the problem to be met frnnkly In 1917. What tho problcmswlll be Is a matter that Is re sponsible for wide divergence of opinion All thoughtful persons will agree that there ts to bo no overnight resumption In bel ligerent countries of Industrial activity that will permit huge supplies of manufac tures to flood American markets or to flood at lower prices foreign markets thnt Amer ican manufacturers have so frrely entered ns a result of tho war's exigencies. Hut hero again must bo considered tho fact that Wall street discounts Instead of awaiting Important happenings. Iluropo will need and badly need tha gold that it has found necessary to send to this country during tho last two yoara to check demor alization In the forolgn exchancoa Complete figures of our foreign trade for tho year 1910 will not bo aaiinbl for a fortnight or more. Hut tho Not ember totals make It possible to get nn Idea of the general result as Indicated by our so-called foreign trndo balance. They show that tho value of our exports of merchandise over Import" for tho entire year will exceed tha stupendous sum of 13.000,000,(00, the bal ance of exports up to the close of .Vo em ber having already exceeded $2,77 1,000 ooa, representing our bill rendered to foreign countries.
