In addressing the Omaha Real Es
tate exchange at noon Victor Rose
water, editor of The Bee, called at
tention to the question as to whether
Amerlca can hold after the war the
jhig trade and commerce that has
Ibeen diverted to us from other coun
tries because of the war.
He pointed out that because the.
munition and war supply orders In
America are bo large, demand for
labor has been created to such an ex
'tnt that few men who really want to
work need be out of work. H
pointed out that countries that used
with the nations now at war
trading with us, and that
nother reason for our In
creased activity at this time.
To Try to Holt tmtneaa.
"There has Just been inororated In
New York City." he said, "a big- com
pany of SoO.OO.OOO capital, the aim of
i which la to hold Ihe trade and business
we have built up during the war. Th
charter gives the company power to do
almost anything that Is necessary, such
as hulldlnR ships, providing- various fa
cilities, buying real estate, or anything
'that is necessary to their end, Whether
.they will be successful in accomplishing
'their aim remains to be seen, for It la;
certain that at the close of the war our
business with Europe will fall off."
Discussing the financial situation grow
tng out of the war, he showed that
' European financial Interests In big Amer
ican companies and projects, have largely
disappeared, since their stocks and shares
were In a sense exchanged for our goods,
until the result Is that Interest and
.riivlifcMiris In large American companies
are now more largely paid to American
capitalists than before. ,rWe have thus j
kept at home," he said, "what was for-1
merly spend abroad. At the same time
Interest has gone up with the Increased
mand for money abroad. The demand
or money Is so great that private cap-
, Ital will probably be more backward
shout going Into various factories and
big utilities. We cannot tell as yet, but
this max have some influence In stim
ulating cities and governments to take
over big , undertakings of this kind In
utead of waiting for private capital."
- Fiperte More Immigration.
The speaker said he looks for Increased
Immigration after the war, but admitted
that men differ widely as to this. "Per
jeonally," he said, "I feel that there wilt
be the prospect of further militarism that
I win loom up before the men and fam
lllies of Europe and have some influence
, In causing them to look across the water
for a. refuge."
Touching on the thought that has been
advanced that European countries will
nationalize more closely than ever before
following the war, Mr.' Rosewater said:
'JffWWigif .'wintrles 'nationalise them
selves, wevm,ut dq it. We must protect
our Industries better and we must protect
ourselves. Wi most protect our people
who choose to Invest In foreign countries,
so that when trouble comes they will not
be told, ,'Tou get out; you went at your
own risk;' i That kind of thing must
stop." '
