V AS li, i IS i-l l, i & & lif GOSSIP OF THE STREET .RESERVATION OF ABSORBS ATTENTION OF BANKERS Credit of Nation Last Year Approximately Three Billion r Dollars Europe's Method of Meeting Pay ment Gossip of the Street T)ERIAPS no subject Is receiving more careful study and consldera- Hon among bankers and other financiers at the present time than the problems facing a preservation of the balance of trade between the United States and foreign countries, especially the Allied nations which are Indebted to us for such huge Bums advanced as loans. The Interest on these loans alone each year would have been considered a staggering ft debt before the war, had not the war made us intimately acquainted with amounts represented only by the use of ten figures. For some time past this column has been In part devoted to the opinions of leading financiers of this city on the subject of foreign v credits. Thcso opinion hae been nbly seconded by Lieutenant Colonel James H. Perkins, vice president of the National City Bank of New Tork, In an address before the Bond Club of New York on Friday last. Colonel Perkins has Just returned from Europe, within the last two weeks, and therefore speaks at first hand. He said: "Nothing can bo done In the way of foreign trade or foreign Invest- l"f ment until we hae done something ro in the position of holding a large part of the wealth of the world. tVe aro a ery largo creditor on every j ear's transactions. Our credit during the war has been running anywhere from six hundred millions before tho war up to three billions, I think It was, In 1917, and approxi mately three billions last year. 'America Must Advance Europe Long Credits Eventually "It Is fundamental that we cannot go on selling to Europe unless we provide some way thereby Europe can pay for what we sell to her. There ore only three methods of paying: One, to pay by gold, which Is out of tho question she hasn't got tho gold; another Is to pay by Imports Into this country from llurope, and the third is to pay by our giving long-time credits to Europe, so that she can re-establish herself. We have got to advance them ery largo and very long credits eventually. "Europe owes to us In the neighborhood of ten billion dollars today. We have bought back from Europe of our own securities that before the war wero taking to them every year probably two hundred and fifty million dollars In Interest. Those are now on this side. So that, roughly f- speaking. In interest alono Europe has lost during the war the possession of approximately seven hundred and fifty million dollars a year. That Is a fixed, charge that Is right out of them to start with. In addition to that, the depletion of raw materials Is such that they must call on us. "The balance of trade, as I see It, must be In our favor for at least flvo years to come. I do not know how much. As I say, It was a balance of three billions In our favor In 1917 and approximately that In 1918. "We are going to finance Europe to a very large extent. We are going to do business with Europe to a ery large extent, and we are going to start right In educating our people to that Idea. The only way i In which wo can do buslnes with them is for our country to become edit- J cated to the Idea that we will buy European somritles when, as and If they are propertly set up, and we can only do business when they are properly set up. America has got to do a ery .ast financing work for f the rest of tho wprld." Below are given the expressions of opinion on cettain matters of Importance occurring In the financial world during the last week as they impressed the individual bankers and brokers to whom they are credited: Hocker S. Co. Domestic trade conditions are shaping themselves in a satlsfactlry manner and Increased activity In virtually all lines Is expected. While we shall experience declines from time to time In ac cordance with either the technical position of tho market or news receled from abroad, the tendency of tho market Is upward for the picsent. "With the Vlctoiy Loan out of the way securities should seek a higher leel, particularly in copper, chemical, motor, oil and steel Issues. Butcher, Sherrcrd & Hansell Probably every broker has often won dered why successful merchants and other men and women with surplus money to Invest gle so little care and thought to their Investments out side of their business or profession. If the same time and Intelligent thought they give to -their dally affairs wero given to the stocks and bonds they buy with their surplus money, many millions of dollars would be saved each jcar. A few moments spent with a careful broker would often, repay the man or woman seeking Investment Beveral hundred per cent In losses prevented alone. From a constructs e standpoint, the expeilencc and suggestions of a competent broker at this time of the cessation of actle military operations, aro Just as necessary for an Investor as are architects and builders for the erection of factories and dwellings. Chandler Brothers & Co. Ecry generally discussed as to whether .Multitudes are now believing that, even entailing a further loss of life, It would have been productive of better results to have definitely defeated Germany on German soil, with nothing less than unconditional surrender. That the lctor's position would have been stronger, not merely aa to Germany, but also as to Russia and. the rest of the malcontent peoples, seems absolutely certain. We are now concerned with an army little short of a- million Bolshevists, composed of Russians, Hungarians, Austrians and Bulgarian prisoners of war, released from Siberian captivity, the bad people of the world, now marching through Gallcla toward Hungary, to foment still further disturbance and add to their own numbers, to In stigate a fresh war under their red banners. Is It any time to be with drawing and demobilizing troops by the wholesale? It seems as though the Allied forces should be Just as formidable and overwhelming In numbers and ammunition as possible until the re bellious spirit Is definitely curbed and peace conditions have been un alterably accepted. There Is not a Bingle element of German spirit changed except that arising by necessity from defeat, and if they were able today to make any new alliances with countries north or south of them they would fight rather than accept the terms which should. In all Justice, be Imposed upon them. No doubt this condition could be success fully resisted by the Allied armies as they were last November, but It Is a serious question, the continual weakening of these forces by large with drawals of English, French and American troops and their return to civilian life. Franklin National Bank Nothing startling appears from an analysis of the business operations of the country during February, the current operations for March and tho prospective operations for April. The transition of business to a peace basis is going forward with few serious jolts or hitches. Released and available labor Is being absorbed faster &Mrihan we had any right to expect and(the danger of a great surplus of idle labor Is growing less. Except for labor strikes, the number of idle workers In tho country la no (larger than we have had on five different occasions during the last ten years. The volume of general business Is somewhat less and the average of commodity prices shows some recession. There has been no unrea sonable decline In production, In shipments or In prices of any Important Item of commerce, Edward B. Smith & Co Prices of stocks continue to exhibit strength and active trading Is noticeable In many specialties. Copper stocks ap pear to have been well liquidated, which may also be said of steel stocks, and new business Is reported to .be developing among these companies. It is believed (hat the railroad situation will gradually become adjusted and that holders of first-class railroad securities have good reason to feel confidence In their Investments. Generally speaking, the situation Is be coming more favorable, and It is thought that considerable activity, may. be expected, particularly in various specialties.
