Vanderlip at his homo at Scarborough on-the-Hudson. Vanderlip ought to know and probably does know as much about American foreign trade, especiallv its financial aspects, as any man in the country. For ten years, 11)09 to 1019. he was president of the American City Bank of New York, the biggest national bank in America. Ho organized and is now the chairman of the hoard of j directors of the American Alternation- , al Corporation and is a director and 1 member of the financial committee of the International Mercantile Marine* Company. It was to got Vanderlip's views on this important subject of foreign ' trade that I arranged for the inter- \ view. Mv first question was: "To what extent does the future prosperity of this country depend on the development of foreign tra.de?" i "It may surprise you to have men j say that I do not take the extreme J position 'that this country cannot 'in- j* iov a faiv degree of prosperity with- 1 ou^ developing a great overseas export trade," was the answer. "Of course I do not take tlie other extreme position that wo are so selfsufficient and self-contained as a na- i tion that foreign trade is a factor ( that nend not bo considered. Some- . whom hot worm these two extremes of opinion lies the real truth. Wo cannot altin the high state of proFperity to which our natural wealth, business pjenius and population entitles us without at least a nominal foreign trade development." "Is the problem; of the development ;>f American foreign trade, to the extent th; t it i-5 a prob'om, a thing that on I)" solved go vet ninrn1 rillv, nr is the problem of \meriean business in its private capacity?" < "Broadly speakin/Lr, it is a problem foi business in its private capacity. I do not mean that the government by sympathetic underst inding and effort cannot help. But it can only help. Th? initiative and energy must he supplied b> the American business I man. I Early Handicaps. t "lie To re the war our foreign trade failures were due in la rue measure to < the refusal of financial and industrial i leaders to apply the same intelligence, 1 eneryry and patience to its develop- : ment that they did to domestic busi- i ness. Ii. addition to this we were al- i so handicapped 1 ?>* the higher wage < levels in this country as against England, Germany and Japan. F?ut even < in tho.-e lines where, by the economy 1 or mass production, we had overcome tlm handicap of higher individual wages. we lid not take full advantage (of our opportunities. Our effort for foreign trade were mcro or less a haphazard, spasmodic effort, and as jan American 1 regret t< ay that we I were not any too honest in our forleitrn trade. Hy all moan* I should say 'that we got all the foreign trade we I were entitled to in Lhe pre-war period. | "The war created such abnormal condition:; that our foreign trrde I ; figures during that period means litjtle or nothing as applied to the sitj nation we are now facing and will ; race ':) t'ne future. "Having become a creditor nation jour y/hole r? lationship wit ii the vest |of the world in terms of trade and I finance ha." chan'- ed." >.?:?t("r< c!iJ Net'dcJ. "Is it possible," I asked, "for us t o iabsorb enough import-; to balance ioi-r export.", and thus maintain our position a: a creditor nation, without causing a shrinkage in industry and continued unemployment?" "Quite possible, ;f we recognize jthe necessity of selling abroad those) things which \vc can produce more j cheaply than other nations and buying from abroad those things which other nations can produce more cjieaply than we can. "Foreign trade is not a one-sided arrangement. In the final analysis the only way we can be paid for raw materials and manufactured I goods we export is to take goods in j exchange. i "As the basis for building up our! foreign trade in the new era which we are now entering we must -extend long-time credits. Also we ; must be prepared to invest our surplus in foreign securities. This is I the policy that made possible Kng-j Stand's foreign trade development.; j Before the war the total of Kng-1 'land's foreign security holdings was! I about twenty billion dollars. To ! maintain our present position as a icreditor nation our foreign invest-j jments ought to reach forty billions." A ("onvcrsationist.

Most oak-leaf poisonng, the specialists say, occurs in he spring, for at that time there is i scarcity of green forage on many ranges and the craving which stock have for greey food leads them to rat the leaver, in excessive amounts. In order to cause sickness, however. )jtk loaves must lie eaten almost exclusively. If eaten with other feeds, ine animals arc not injured. It has been found experimentally that as small a quantity as throe pounds daily of aKalfa hay fe<. in ronnec lion with oak leaves prevented poisoning. Observations on the ran.^c and experimental feeding both .show tin; Mine cattle may eat oak leaves for \ lorn? lime with no definite bad effects, and some will even eat them exclusively with no harm. Generally speaking, those that are injured show the results only after eatim? ; considerable quantity through a rath er prolonged period, usually from !' to 35 days. The specialists pout op' that the oaks on many ranges fui ;i.-l a most i" portant element 'n summc feed when additional sources of or ajve are available, but they ur?>e tin-' exercise ! dtiri ;v the j-pviiU that cattle be not r.dmitted to . r ; < ? range at too earlv a date, for oak leaves are we'll advanced before the appearance of the p;ras: e.-. o Me Was Cheerful A small boy was sent to church by his father with a nickel and a doiiai bill.

Harding virtually holds the late of China and her four hundred million people in the hol'ow of his hand. Whether he wishes it so or not, and whether he takes action or refuses to take action, his attitude during the next four years will largely determine China's future for her destiny seems to have wished this problem on him ami nothing can relieve him of it. China has reached the fork of the road. One way crooks aronud and beats back definitely into the medieval age where the people's lot will inevitably be even worse than it is today when it is admittedly about on a par with that of a pe^k mule or other beast of burden. The other branches off and leads to a prosperous China, an Oriental cross between the United States of! A i -erica and the French Republic. Oim of these two things has got to be because world peace depends I upon it and the next two or three! years will decide which road China will take. Three powers ? Great Britain, Japan arid America?will be the! detei mining fad rrs at the moment! China definitely engages in the one I \\ ly or l ie other, and ef these three,! America will exert the most in-i fluence. And President Halving, through' his secretary of .-tale, Ohnr'o.s Kvans Hughes, must act for A merica. A firm policy 'a^ed on the open door.

Americans Loved. ITnrn, in substance, is a composite of the thoughts of many educated I Chinese who have expressed themselves lr, i t here in Shanjrhai. Their faith in America is almost pit i fid. She is the ore country they sti'i have confidence in, every other jrreat nation having been her "friend" only that they might take so m''tiling* from her for themselves. "Just being1 American is suffisafe-conduct for you hero in China," a Chinese (Southern) told '->o. "You can cross the country onp curl to the other in perfect ^a"r*tv merely hy making yourself known as an American. Your nationality vill earrv vou through." "W'ny is that?" l acked. "IScu.'^e," he replied, 11 Chinese know Americans, as their fv'ends. They have never drnv anything for us expecting* something in return. They have helped China because it was right. "China wan^'?avd must have? foreign advice," this sa no man went on to say. "We need it. in all our affair>?governmental, finencia!. coin mercial, railway-?but as things are now the h nvers th-^- ;clves provide us with advi:-e"\v, g:v:i us no choice in the matter. "The powcv^, ;> a ride, send u^ 'experts' to look :>fter t'^eir 'r/ccre-l ?, -at China's mlere {; else give us m:'n wh.o vmore 'pull' at home than ability out here. ''If' over China reaches tbe point where she can get what she ' . ants, one of the very first things she will do is to send to America for some of the biggest brains in the country ?really big men, men above all m;spicion and known the world ovei* fcr the things they have done." The speaker then mentioned two or three Americans whose names are svnonvms Cor ?. plishments every where. Soldiers vs. Schools. "Don't publish them, though."' he warned, "at least not yet, for international opposition to a really strong China is already too great. "That uives yon an idea of the type of man we need and wili one day have to help us in China," he went on. "Cost us a lot? Of coarse. Are we not now spending over $200,000,000 a year, in one way or another, to support more than a million soldiers to do the personal bidding of a 1 f>t of corrupt militarists, who, once China gets on her feet Will lose their jobs.
