Today the United | states is the money and supply cen- of the world and it will be for a long time to come owing to the hil-| lions of moncy we have advanced to other nations The outcome is diffi- cult to even guess at as there no precedent in history with which to base a comparison. The best way for employes to gain an interest in the profits of the railroads with which they are connected, which they are now seeking to obtain, is to adopt the same system that the United States Steel Corporation has for its em- ployes, that is, to make a purchase of curities of the arious proper- with which they are identified. Then they become vital partne That is the only way I can conceive of that will enable them to achieve their ambition, and it is a perfectly feasible and legitimate way he quickest and most ecffective w to put an cnd to the present strikes is for congress to apply the provision of the Sherman anti-trust law in rela- tion to the formation of combina-' the) of were supe forei s ar solve and at ies certainly operate in restraint trade.

One prominent foreign financial authority has suggested the formation of a co-operative interna- tional pool for the support of interna- tional credit. His plan is for a loan of )00.000,000 issued to investors in all parts of the world and guaran- teed by all the interested govern- ments. It is proposed that the United States rantee £1,000,000,000, Great Britain £1,000,000,000, IFrance £500,000,000, the remainder to be di- vided between Italy, Russia, Japan, Greece and several of the The rate of interest per cen net, the of taxation.
