JUST PUIN BUSINESS PUN America, Greatest Debtor Nation In 1914, Now World’* Largest Creditor —Private Citizens Sending Savings to Foreign Concerns and Drawing Big ^ Returns — Bu^ildlng Packing Houses In South America and Sugar Mills In Cuba. Approximately 18,000,000,000 of American dollars now are at work in foreign countries rebuilding industry, re-establishing commercial connec tions and earning substantial inter est rates for their American Investors, it is shown In data in possession of the Commerce and Treasury depart ments. America, before the great war one of the world’s biggest debtor nati(ms, now stands at the head of the internation al financial list as the greatest credi tor country. American investors, small as well as large, are following the example established by their government when it loaned $10,000,000,000 to the gov ernments associated with it in the great war. American private citi zens are sending their savings and their capital to private citizens and private conceras of foreign countries to swing business and commerce out of the world-wide economic depres sion. Dollars earned and saved in this country are now flowing to Europe. Asia and South America to build man ufacturing plants, rehabilitate rail roads and canals, construct wharves and docks and erect warehouses so that the world’s business and trade may be resumed In proportions great er than those of 1911. American investors are taking ad vantage of legitimate business and comniercial opportunities. Tliore is no philanthropy about the matter. Mil lions invested abroad will bring mil- Jions plus more millions back to the United States. Farsighted l>usiness men of this country are helping the world’s business back on its feet so that the world in turn may send orders for goods and interest on investments back to the United States. At five per cent, tlie yield on Amer ica’s investments abroad totals $900.- 000,(XX) a year, which is a return of $2,500,000 for each day of the year, including Sundays. A steady stream of interest pay ments now are floating toward Amer ica, filling the pockethooks and fatten- mg the bank accounts of those thrifty persons who are taking advantage of international investment chances such as have presented themselves only once or twice in the world’s history. May Soon Have Bourse. Establislnnent of a bourse to deal in foreign securities has boen given consideration by some government of ficials. The propoj<rtl for the liourse was first voiced by Eugene Meyer, managing director of the War Finance corporation. Meyer’s proposal was for tlie setting up of a private house to enable Americans to buy foreign in- fiustrisil and government LssJbes. New V»>rk l)ankers showed keen Interest in Meyer’s suggestion. Investments made in und South America by Americans have averaged $1,0{11JJ,000 a d:iy for tlie past 12 months. And the streijm is getting lugger (?ach day. Since tl«e outbreak of the great war I>rlvate American citizciis have pur chased nearly $3,000,000,000 worth of foi-eign securities, as well as $4,000,- '00,0()0 worth of American securities which 'were repurchased from their i’oreign owners. Another 000,000,000 is piled on ihe foreign investment by the trade balance in favor of American manu facturers, producers of raw materials and exporters. Private Americnn con tractors now are creditors in large part for big lots of war materials d'e- livered to foreign governments. The United States govornmejit, through military and naval branches, is credi- !or o' sever: ' foreign govei’nments for tiearly $3,000,000,000 of surplus wa»' material. And finally toe government is creditor for $10,000,000,000 wortth (it loans made during the great war with money first sidvanced by Ameri can citizens through the several issues of Liberty bonds and Victorj* notei:. in advancing money to foreign in dustries and govennnents, investors of the United States at this time, are performing a service similar to that rendered this country by investors of (Jreat Britain, France and Italy during ;he period of big development in the United States. After the Civil war /he United States turned to the west ern states to build its continental rail roads, open mines of copper, gold and silver, and construct great grain eleva tors. Returning Favor Done in 1065. There was in this country not enough capital to develop these indus tries or open the railroads to them. The pounds and francs of thrifty French, British and Belgian citizens flowed into the United States In mil- lioca, seeking profitable and safe re turn. The American dollar was'^'ofT' In the International exchange marketi axid could be bought cheaply.. VMelgu lnve»'tor» thus foresa<f a double profit. Bond^ of the American government, too. were snapped up, aa well ajt in* dustrial and mining securities. When the dollar rose In international ex change the foreign investors were ready to sell out and take profits. A situation somewhat similar now_ prevails In tintemational investment' (^portuni^es with the advantage in favor of Americans who have dollars not now busy. • Pounds sterling and the French and Belgian francs can be bought for half their prewar value compared with American dollars. Gilt-edged industrial, mining and transpertation issues of English, French. Italian and Belgian corpora tions and conceras now can be bought at far below their former value; as far as American dollars^ are concerned. Europe, South America and Central America need CRpUal. The need if greater than was that of the United States during Its period of industrial development. And in a large majority of cases the Investment Is unusually safe. Foreign business concerns and for eign governments, both mtmiclpol and central, months ago discovered that America is a vast possible nmrket for their securities. They set the*uselves to develop the market. Blocks of gov ernment securities totaling millions each were offered to American Inves tors through New York banking houses. A half dozen cities of Europe, Can ada and South America began trying out the American market at a fast pace. Hundreds of Americans now own bonds Issued by Paris, Rouen, Prague, Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires, Montreal, Ottawa and Berne. Switzer land. American savings thus are build ing for foreign cities gve.it public un dertakings like waterwork systems, tram lines and roadways. Works in Many Countries. On the. side of Investment in private business, American money is building meat packing houses in South Amer ica, sugar mills in Cuba, hotels in Havana and Is seeking the ,opportun- Ity to try for oil in Mesopotamia. Raw cotton, financed by small Amer ican investors through the Edge law corporations, is going to central Eu rope to be made into cloth for ship ment to all parts of the world. Wheat raised by American farmers is being shipped from almost every United States port, the farmers having re ceived their pay from other Americans who thus are investing their money abroad through virtual loans to foreign buyers. In addition to direct investments abroad through the purchase of for eign securities, Americans are sendhig their savings across the seas in more thaA a hundred indirect methods. These millions * going out of the country, when wisely Invested, consti tute a great international bank ac count. on which America can d^aw al any period of emergency, government officials say. They also help to steady trade and world business conditions. The flow may continue for years, it Is explained. It shows that the United States, through her business men and through her government, is making a big entry on the credit side of the world’s bankbook against a possible international economic rainy day. will lell to the Ugheat l^der f«r cash at the Court Hoiise Door in the town of Bre^rard, N.

BOY BATTLES OSTRICH Saves Eight-Year-Old Chum by One of Pluckiest Deeds on Record. “Sonnie” Saunders, the sixteen-year- old son of Councilor Saunders of Oudt- shoorn. South Africa, is the hero of a thrilling duel with a fierce ostrich in a large ostrich camp In the veld, whither he had wandered, accompa nied by a little boy “chum” of eight. The London Daily Express recounts the adventure; “A. fierce cock ostrich made for the pair, and young Saunders, knowing that if he took to his heels ft would result in his little chum, being mauled, and possibly killed , by the bird, advanced to meet the» attack, telling his friend to stand motlonlefes; “The boy and' bird advanced towards each other^ As the bird was on the point of striking, Saunders stepped aside, seized it by the’ neck and leaped rigiit 6n its back. The lad, after a desperate struggle. In* which he sus tained a severe wound on his wrist, managed at last to. tw’lst the bird*s neck and render it' unconscious. It was only when his little friend had got safely through the- wire fence that he consented to leave the motionless mass. “Old hands describe the act as onc| of the pluckiest on record, even for a full-grown man.” Let Us Print Yoor Sale Bills BOSSY GOES ON SPREE Cow's Milk Develops Quite a Kick Afterward. When John Dickey of Zihlman, a mining hamlet near Frostburg, Ind., went to his pasture field one morning he found his four cows lying about the field in a drowsy and almost inanimate condition. They could not be made to rise on their hoofs, and investigation of their mouths showed they had been eating some isind of mash. Later Dickey found that ^some one had emp tied moonshine mash In the field and on this the cows had fed, causing them to become intoxicated. Dickey was unable to milk the cows for two days. When he did cause them to get up from their reclining position they stag gered about as If drunk. , They are now all rl^iht again and are producing milk 8 usual. For a time Dickey was a “little leary” of the milk, fear ing it might have a “milk punch" kick. NOTICE—LAND SALE BY TRUSTEE.
