EFFICIENCY MUST NOT BE ‘SACRIFICED To Secure Economy, Says Prof. R. A. Seligman of Colum- ‘bia University Pittsburgh, Pa., Dec. 29.—Reduc- tion in naval armament and the adop- tion of a new budgetary system will remedy but will not cure national ex- penditures rising from. a pre-war | . level of about $1,000,000,000 to a post- ‘war level of more than $4,000,000,000, ; declared Professor Edwin R. A. Selig- man of Columbia University in an ad-; dress befcre the American Economic | Association here today, They must be followed, he said, “by other measures | which will secure economy without sacrificing efficiency.” lem was the one pressing tor the most immediate solution, the United States | being faced with an annual contribu- | tion to interest, charges and amorti- zution of more than %250,000,000.00 | Speaking of the Allied indebtedness to the United States, he declared he; had ‘little patience ‘with .those—an- ; doubtedly still a majority in this coun- | try-who consider it a just, debt.” ; He suid the :plan followed by both | Great Britain and the United States, | in giving assistance to tho Allies in| the ties was only an expedient calcula- ted to achieve the greatest efficiency in the conduct of the war. “If we are to charge France ‘and Italy with the wheat’ that, kept their forces alive, for the uniforms that kept tieir soldiers warm, “we might as well charge them so much per « man cf the American army,” he con- tinued, “Do we desire to put our- selves on the level of the Hessian rulers who supplied Great Britain with the mercenaries during our Tevo: lution.” “The revolution which) cdtv rtea us from a debtor to a credit tatidll, and which made us at a ‘blow!'the economic arbitor of the world, is due to the fact that for two and one-half years we madeenormoug profits. If} it is indefensible for-a private indi- viduat to make profits out of the’ blood and misery of his fellow coun- trymen, why is not the same rule ap- plicanle to a nation? “Had we been in the. war from the beginning, we also ‘should liave been hovering on the bring ‘of ‘bankruptcy instezd of. being. able to: count, the $10,000,000,000 as. assets,- our’ govern- ment would probably have'been*in’.a , position of owing 10 times $10,000;000,- 000 as our share of the cost’ of the war.” SERBIA MAKING GREATHEADWAY) In Spite of The/Fact That She Lost 1/3 of Her Male . Population / ‘Monastir, Jugyslavia, Dec. 29—Few countries of Europe have shown great: er recuperative power than Serbia. Al- though ravdged ‘by yoars of war, fam- ine and disease, and suffering the loss of nearly one-third of:her male popu- lation, the country’ is today rapidly approaching complete restoration and stability. Large cities like Monastir, Nish and Belgrade, whore the enemy wrought the greatest havoc in property” des- truction, are now like cities resurrect. ed and reincarnated, Everywhere dwelling houses, schools and businese { buildings have arisen f.om the crum- bled ruins of their former foundations. To the foreign visitor the sight is truly amazing. But it is not in reconstruction work alone that the country has made such wonderful strides, ‘Tifrougbout the kingdom the: thrifty peasantry’‘havé been hard at work on: the farm#,'‘in the vineyards, in the mills, tanneries and forests. And the product of their toil has been sent across the seven seas, and Serbia has received in re- turn the muchyheede! currency’ or merchandise of other nations. While, like most;other European countries, Serbia’s imports exceed her exports by a considerable margin, it is belleved that by 1922-the. country will have reached’ a favorable trade balance. At present the nation’s trade {9 | turning to countries which have a more favorable exchange, mainly to! Austria, Germany, : Italy ‘and ‘Czecho- slovakia. The United States ‘is push- | ing her trade with effect, and has _al- mst doubled it during the last year. If it were not for:the high value of the dollar, America probably would be among the leaders in her exports ; tothis kingdom. One of the obstacles to’ the develop- ment of the qountry’s ‘commerce hat | been the lack of adequate railroad | transport. It is short of locomotives | and freight cars. But a large loan | recently raised within the country for the improvement ‘of transport facilt- | ties probably will have a far-1 “reaching | effect.
