‘ With all our love of peace, and our
desire to see the European slaughter
yonded, most Americans seem to be
' coming around to the view that the

Every day that the war drags on
brings its harvest of calamity to the
human rucé. But thoughtful observers
realize that an abortive peace, a Bob

The metropolis is now considering1
the possibility of eliminating the mid-

at least, direct to the consumer. That
fact is of general interest merely be-
cause New York does so vast a loan
business. carrying a floating debt ab
most equal to our national debt, and
issuing bonds-in for greater volumei
than any other city in tho world. ”The;
principle oi! the thing is ”the same
whether a city is large or small. The
few thousands of dollars that a coun-
try town might save are as important
to it as the‘ millions tho mortopom
wastes.
The method proposed is that which
originated in St.‘ Paul, and has been
adopted to some extent in Cleveland,
Baltimore and Philadelphia. The city,
instead of selling its bond lesuo whole-
sale to banking houses that distribute
them, retails the bonds itself over its

many years in Germany. it may soon
be the win in American cities, rath-

Many people overlook the indirect
effect of industrial depression upon

to the fact that although this country
