Sprretarv McAdoo ' has transmitt ed to President Wilson his repafi W the proceedings and conclusions or the Pan-American nnanciai wuiw ence held Xn Washington last JVIay with represeiitative bankers, business men and statesmen " of the United States and 18 LatinAtnerican repub lics in attendance. He' strmniarlzed his suggestions Tor carrying on the work of the conference and improv ing the financial and commercial re lations between the participating na tion as follows: "First. That 12 federal reserve banks establish promptly joint agen cies in the leading cities df all the countries of Central and South Amer ica for the purpose of providing en larged credit facilities, as outlined in the first part of the report. 'Second. That the government of the United Startes provide promptly the necessary steamship facilities by subscribing the capital stock of a corporation organized for the pur pose of owning and operating the necessary steamship lines. Third. That the international i high commission on unirormity oi laws be granted an appropriation of $25,000 to enable it to carry on the important work it has unaertaKen and represent the United States in the meeting of the international high commission of all the Latin-American republics. "Fourth. That a Pan-American financial conference be held annual ly in the city of Washington and that the congress authorize the president to extend invitations to the republics of Latin-America to attend a finan cial conference in the city of Wash ington during the year 1916, and that an appropriation of $50,000 be made for said conference." In support of his suggestion for the establishment of joint agencies of federal reserve banks in neighboring republics, Secretary McAdoo says that extension of the credit facilities of this nation in those countries will inure to "their and our advantage." He declares that the plan advanced during the conference here for the amendment of the national bank act so that national banks could become stockholders in an independent bank which would do a foreign business, is inferior to that he now proposes for joint agencies of the reserve banks. "The federal reserve banks," he argues, comprise in tneir meniDer ship every national bank in the United States as well as a number of leading state banks and trust com panies. They constitute a nnanciai organization of unequalled strength, and their operations in foreign coun tries wir. be for the common benefit of all banks composing the system. These agencies in" foreign countries could, in addition to their banking business, render a great service to American business men and bankers by furnishing credit, reports and gen eral information about trade and fin ance in the various countiies in which they operate." The federal reserve act, Secretary McA.doo points out. authorizes the establishment of such agencies with ... .... ..1 tne consent oi tne reaerai reserve board, and, while the banks cannot be compelled to take action along these lines, encouragement by the board may prompt them to it. En trance into this field by the federal reserve banks, he says, will not pre vent member banks from carrying on and enlarging the business 'they are now doing in foreign countries, but the capital and resources of i.he reserve banks utilized for the exten sion and promotion of commerce would give them unrivaled financial power. "The question of adequate steam ship facilities," says the secretary, is fundamental and underlies every other question concerning our trade and future relationships with the Latin-American republics. The quick and effective solution of tnis problem is tor the government of the Trnit.-. States to put itself behind a shipping enterprise, so that the necessary--financial support to make it successful will be assured. We cannot expec private capital in this country to en gage in this essential undertaking. It is too big at the outset for private capital." Secretary McAdoo supports his contention by saying that steamships of the sort he proposes could be used as naval auxiliaries in time of war. He says the navy department has in formed him that, in order to , bring the United States navy to its; maxi mum usefulness and efficiency in war time, there is need of 400 merchant vessels -of -approximately 1,172,000 gross tons, . and, addition, about k vJfc 9fiA?i9 tpnj v each,j to ,,be Washington.

There is one blockade now in force in Europe, the blame for which be longs to none of the belligerents in particular, but must be shared by all. Reference is here made to the block ade of Switzerland to the, tourist trade. And it is no small matter to the Swiss; on the contrary, the busi ness . of ministering to foreign visi tors was one of the greatest and most productive of Swiss industries. There are about 4,000 tourist hotels in Switzerland, employing 43,000 persons, with a yearly wage list of $5,600,000 and f 2271000,000 capital invested. More than $100,000,000 was spent by tourists in Switzerland in 1913; and all but $5,500,000, which went for postage, telegrams, telephone calls and railroad charges, constituted gross revenue s for the shops and hostelries the latter tak ing about 80 per cent, of the total. The business in 1914 was only 40 per en extensive leave and, of necessity, all drills' and exercises had to be either Wholly suspended, or imper fectly carried out. The consequence wwrthat upon completion of the re pairs it would be found that the ship and crew instead of resuming active service in a state of trained efficiency comparable to what it possessed on entering the overhaul period, would have suffered in discipline, in morale and ship spirit, and required several subsequent months of active drills and exercises before they could be re stored to thefr former state of readi ness for war. . "A routine, of course, will be adop ted which will allow ample leave to both officers and men, always hav ing in view, when at all possible, leave for Christmas."

This is the interpretation placed upon the law by the bureau of naturalization of the department of labor. This bu reau has been investigating the rub ject, which was presented at th3 out break of the European" war. It is held that American citlkens wh en list in a forefgn army expatriate themselves, and that, if 'they return to this country after the war, they must apply for naturalisation. The law specifically states . that a person entering the military service of a foreign government and taking the oath of allegiance thereto ex patriates himself. It is said this ex patriation applies not only to natu ralized Americans, but to native born as well. The shouldering of a musket for a foreign ruler, therefore, means the loss of citizenship in this country. at the lowest possible cost.

Marl tbat sold for $3 a ton less than a year ago now sells for $1.50 a ton; and ground limestone that sold for $1.60 a ton now sells for $1.15. And even these low prices may be reduced still lower as the de mand increases. A wise use of ground limestone will be found productive of greatly increased crop yields, and will enable the farmer to get along without so much expensive potash, the price of which has recently been put out of reach of the average farmer by the interference with trans-Atlantic ship ping due to the European war. We have enormous amounts of potasTi in our dwn soils, especially those found in the Piedmont and mountain sec tions of the state, and a liberal Use Of ground limestonSe and marl will tend to unlock this potash and render it available for crops. Farmers should be careful to use their lime either under5 clover, etc., or on land well supplied with vegetable matter.
