GOLDEN AGE FOR BANKERS.
‘ it new British war loan of a billion
and a quarter of dollars is to bear 4 1,92
per cent: interest. That makes the in-
' some from such an investment 50 per
~ cent. more than it has been It any
time in a hundred years. That his h;
rate is due to the growing dimculty of
getting hold of real money. even in

A Two women DOLLAR reaps
BALANCE.
Sir George Palsh, financial expert of
the London Stalls; and adviser of the
British government, prophesied last
summer that the United States would.
as the war proceeded, become the fin-
ancial center of the world. We have al-
ready attained that distinction. lie
prophesied then that our favorable
trade balance for the year would reach
abiuion dollars. and that forecast has
rtbepn closely approximated. We are
,prepared now, to listen rospecth
i when he announces that our excess oi
exports over imports for the next 12
months may. recall 52.000.000.000. The
, assistant favorable balance we ever
had, before the present ’bllliondollar
yer, WAS $066,000,000 in 1908. A twoblb
lion bulance in our favor would lie-pre-
cisely three times that.
Betcha situation would mean that we

ties now bud abroad ,and in lendins
money to foreign ations, without in
domestiocredit or money supply.
With a billion-dollar wheat crop in
prospect and other crops doing well.
with the steel industry reviving and
the prospect of getting ahead to t he
extent of twa billion dollsrsa year in

NEGRO ENIFRANCWDEMENT.
It Was a southern man, a former
iCOnfederate soldier, who as chief jus-
tice of the United States, on June 21
handed down the tdecision declaring
unconstitutional “grandfather
iclause" disfranchlsitng degrees in sev-
lIeral southern states. That fact must
nob the decision of much of its dis-
, tastefulness t0 the South, and drive
home the conviction that it is based
; not on prtepd-ice but on law and rea-
son. -
The- E0urteenth and Fifteenth Am-
andznents may have been mistakes,
but it seems to have been at least as
big a. mistake to each 17. somedy based
on purely racial discrimination. Illiter
