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.

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.”

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.
