Praise for War Finance Corporation Th" Ninth National Rank says in its monthly letter: "Of great importance in controlling the present financial mechanism of the country is the war filnance corporation, organized and financed by tho Government One of its principal ulms Is to assure needed capital to those industries most directly related to war activities. This will he accomplished In two ways: by a limitation of new capital Issues and by loans and ad vances which the war Snance corporation will make to the specific Indus tries it wishes to aid. "Though all classes of Industry have, thus far been able to obtain funds as required, it is realized that a time may come when the available capital of the country must be reserved for the use of those industries primarily devoted to war purposes; or, at least, that such Industries will have the first call on investment funds. Through authority to limit Issues, the capital is sues committee can control the output of new securities, thus directing the flow of investment funds into war industries. This power is supplemented by authority to make advances and loans lo banks and trust companies which have aided war Industries."
