His statement follows: “The economic and financial fea- in my opinion, the following: “First—The British starvation war i has failed. been proved that our domestic produc- i tion of foodstuffs, bread card system, {and maximum prices assure even to the poorest the necessary supply of food and that at prices lower than pre- vailing in Great Britain. Cannot Be Starved Out. “Second—Nor can we be ‘starved out' in raw materials. The difficul- tieg ‘cast in the way of the importation of faw materials, in violation of in- | ternational law, are unpleasant for us, but are not fatal. We have in our own country an ample supply of the most' important raw materials—coal and iron—and of others we have on hand, unmanufactured or manufac- tured, great supplies which, with the economical employment thereof in- sured by our methods methods of or- ganization, are virtually inexhaustible. “Third—The spectre of unemploy- ment has been banished.

" Sufficient Finances. “Fourth—So far as finances are con- cerned, Germany’ will carry the war | through for an unlimited time. We | produce in our own gountry practic- | ally everything needed for war. Thus expenditures for war purposes re- solve themselves into savings. These | again are at the empire's disposition, posits are flowing into the banks and savings institutions more plentifully than in times of peace. The total of deposits today, after over $3,000,- 000,000 have been paid dn war loans, | is higher than at the outbreak of the | war. The gold reserve of the Reichs- | bank has almost doubled since the | war began. Notes and deposits in the Reichsbank covered by gold are 33% | per cent., as compared with 26.7 per | cent in the Bank of France and 21.7 | in the Bank of England. “Fifth-—The confidence of the Ger- man people in our financial strength is as unbounded as their confidence in our military superiority. After twelve months of war imperial 3’s are quot- ed at 70, which is eight points below | the quotation in March, 1914; the minimum price of British consols, 65, | is eleven per cent. below the quota- | tion in March, 1914; three per cent. French rentes, at 69, are nineteen per | cent. below March, 1914. “Work, skill, discipline, organiza- tion, economy, and last, but not least, the categorical imperative of patri- otism have upheld Germany in the | first year against world enemies, and will help us further to win the war. “HELFFERICH.” BUACKSMITH, TWO YEA..R‘ OLD.

The Russian Black sea fleet, he said, although weaker than the Turco-German, had rendered its adversaries inoffensive, inflicting severe losses upon them. The minister spoke of the muni- tions problem and praised the pa- triotism of workers, which had ied them to end strikes and had given great impetus to factory production, making the workers marvels of ac- tivity. .
