President the tribute of its hearty weleome. But just now he has a claim to more than that. He can rightfully ask a close and earnest, attention. | One does not have to think Mr. Wilson infallible, one does not! have to approve his every act or indorse his every utterance to recog- nize him, nevertheless, as the man who for nearly four years, two of them the most critical the modern world has yet passed through, has) borne the heaviest responsibilities of any citizen of the United States ‘and who bas patiently and honestly tried to measure up to the great task of representing American thought, upholding American honor! and defending ‘American ideals in the face of widespread war and wonflict. “Measure up,” we say, because that is Mr. Wilson’s attitude. ‘(Whatever his mistakes he has never thought himself bigger than the, ‘pountry, never sought to mould it to his personal model, never treated itase pedestal for his own greatness, never conceived there could be | “higher honor than to gite careful, conscientious expression to its @onvictions and purposes. Working always from this point of view, Mr. Wilson has learned ‘much during these four years about the nation’s needs and how to meet them with true leadership and true efficiency. What he says sat this moment is better worth listening to than the protestations of| ,@ hungry party or the promises of an untried candidate. While New York is welcoming the President to-day let every voter of every political shade turn over in his mind what this man represents, what he has achieved in the present peace and prosperity | of the country, what his experience counts for as a guarantee for the next four years, and finally, what history would say of an American ‘electorate which failed at such a time to re-elect him. —_— -+-—_—___——- How the idea of the Deutschland carrying mails must make the British censor gnash his teeth. ‘ : 4 et ; WHERE THE BLAME RESTS. ACK of preparedness on the part of the railroads caused the L freight embargo earlier in the year. Lack of preparedness on "1 the part of the railroads and the coal producers is responsible for the present preposterous boosting of the retail price of coal. The “panicky feeling” among local dealers which has put coal “up to $12 a ton can be directly traced to a demoralized distribution «which has failed to meet demands that could easily have been foreseen. Just as railroad managers displayed a total lack of foresight and! generalship in their inability to handle the rush of freight they had! “geen for months to be impending, so the coal producers and the coal | _fouds are now caught with shortage of cars and misplaced accumula-} tions of coal at the very moment when the demand for fuel becomes # most widespread and insistent. 4 “There is no coal famine,” the coal operators hasten to declare. Why should there be? The country’s coal resources are enormous. {The railroads chiefly engaged in shipping coal have had plenty of y time to prepare themselves for the extra demands the country's pros- , perity is making on them. They have not done so and as usual the “consumer is expected to pay for their neglect and inefficiency. $ — | 2 We congratulate the Evening Post.

There is one pevial danger which the credit man should be on the alert to forestall. "Should merchants, wholesale or retail, begin to buy more than they normally require.at a time like this it is fair assumption shat they are speculating. A “friendly word from the credit man often will set the wan- derer back on the path, “Humanity naturally inclines to the ‘pull’ side of every market movement, It is founded in the inberent optimism lor the race, When things are going | well most men can only see sunshine ahead; and in the case of invest- ments convince themselves that the upward trend is bound to continue Merchants who are doing good |business and who are not actuated by the speculative fever may buy in ex- cess of thelr requirements just be- cause they feel optimistic and conti dent, There 1s another instance d Over-Buying s To-Day. Says W.F.H. Koelsch, Banker, where the credit man is called upon for judgment of a discriminating sort. |No one wants to choke the wheel of trade or prevent a man from extend- ing his business, but above all things let us keep the small man from in- volving himself, “The influx of gold from Europe jhas served to cheapen coin in this |country, and that has a bearing on high prices, With the European de- mand for commodities constantly in- creasing and our sales abroad ever mounting upward, we are receiving = growing stream of gold. Too much |gold in any country has @ tendency to depreciate its buying power, Every business man knows that. And this is one of the times when national prosperity, founded largely upon for- \eign requirements, is making the shoe pinch at home. “That creates another problem for the credit man, If prices continue upward and gold's purchasing power downward—then what? The danger of excessive buying becomes only thy stronger, and imposes a new burden upon merchant, manufacturer and consumer. Some large converters of raw products hi ortened credits recently to @ spot cash basis. Where their customers had bought these products on easy terms, where they had been allowed to place future of ders which the manufacturers wer glad to book, they must now praci!- cally buy on sight and pay upon de- livery. “The change of policy affected thousands of small merchants in New. York City, The first thought that occurred to @ considerable number of them was to borrow money of thelr bankers and stock up on th prod. ucts. In other words, they hypothe- cated definite assets for something | they hoped to guin, with the uddl- tional purpose of protecting them- selves against an expected further ths | crease.
