Even Germany Will Borrow to Pay War Indemnity—Economic Dif- ficulties Perplexing. BY DAVID LAWRENCE. President Harding has undertaken a job unparelleled in American history, | if not unprecedented in world eco- | nomics. He has asked the bankers of America, who, he recognizes, will| practically finance the world in the next ten years, to co-operate with the Tnited States government, not for governmental purposes, mot for the bandling of government obligations, | but for the safeguarding of every | class of people—investors, large and small, farmers, business 'men, Pro- ducers, consumers. Flanked by Secretary Mellon of the Treasury and Secretary lioover of the Department of Commerce, whose Vis- ion of what is ahead of America is a controlling influence in_government nowadays, Presidemt Harding has called together. firsi the international bankers of the east, but before many RCHENBACAER DUE THS AFTERNOON Leaves Dayton, Ohio, for Washington at 10:10 A.M.

Mr. Harding admits frankly that America must finance the world. He doesn’t dispute the fact that Germany must borrow lots of money to pay the allies and that directly or indi- rectly much of that borrowing will ba done in the United States, and, in- congruous as it Y See the jn- Vestors of Amerioa: w HREATY" loaning Germany money wherewith to pay her war indemnity. This always nappens when the creditor nation is victorious. It may be a surprising fact to the layman, but to the finan- cier it is axiomatic.
