Resources Of
Country Would
Make Capital
New York Financier Believes
True Balance Between Our
Production and Consump
tion Will Solve Problems.
By HOLLAND.
George E. Roberts, at one time di
rector of the mint and now vice
president of the National City bank,
said to the members of the Inter
national Chamber of Commerce at
its recent meeting in London that
the United States possesses poten
tial resources which, if avail could
be made of them, would furnish the
world with a large part of the fresh
capital which is now needed. Mr.
Roberts did not mean that this coun
try can provide money in large
amounts with which to enable the
world to recover its balance. The
capital to which he referred is raw
material, foodstuffs, copper and mass
production in many5 lines including
steel, industrial and railroad equip
ment. But the vary faet that we do pomes.
Ifl . re,?urc" which. If there cn be
disentanglement from present dy in
volved condition, would enable us to
furnish the world with real capital oc
caslons, Mr. Roberta said, by reason of
the variety and the treat capacity of our
uuunriti, inucn perplexity in world
trade because we cannot determine what
we are willing- to take In exchange for
the things we are anxious to sell.
Foreign Trade Decrease.
A few days after Mr. Roberta thua
(poke there came official report telling
of the astounding decrease In our for
eiKn trad especially In the final six
month of the fiscal year which, ended
on June !0th. This trade fell off al
most one-half. But a It ia measured
In dollar and not In quantity it la rea
sonable to assume that this decrease ha
been accaaloned by the falling off in
price, In some case a much a 60 per
cent.
What 1 now necessary In the view of
Mr. Robert and of many other 1 the
brInirtnK about of a true balance between
production and consumption and be
tween the International trade In which
the various trading nation are now en
gaged. Mr. Robert apparently had In mind
the fact that notwthstandlng- the de
crease in our international trade in the
li month ending June sotn, nevertne
less that trade created a favorable bal
ance for th United mate of about two
billion dollar. Before the war If we
had a visible trade balance of half a
billion we were satisfied and gratified.
One Remarkable Change.
One of the change in our relation
with world affair to which Mr. Robert
referred is our almost wonderful absorp
tion of foreign securities. Up to the
year 19H. hardly any aecuritie Issued In
other land than our own had been mar
keted In the United State. On th con
tiary it wa our cutom to go to Lon
don or to Pari or to Holand and to a
less extent to Oermany for loan or for
market place for our own aecuritie.
Now that i changed. During the war
only a few issue for the allied and neu
tral government wera sold in the United
v..... imw.aiiiat.lv after the armistice
wa algned there came many offerings of
securities from other lands, almost all of
which were accepted. Mr. Roberta estl
mate I that ince November, 1819. some
what In exces of one billion dollar rep
resented by foreign government aecuritie
have peen old in the United State.
Where the Capitol Went.
For one Imperative reason much of the
development work in the United State
wa topped after 1914. The reason why
great development in the United States
was checked is attributed by Mr. Roberta
to the fact that government loans, tne
aggregate of which wa approximately
125 000,000,000, absorbed almost all or
the available fund of the people. The
re.ult is that while we have P?'""'' "
muchsourc. which if they could be made
available would aupply the world with
much of the capital which i v neede d. j
we on the other hand are unable to avail
eurselvea of these resources. .,
Gradually we are exiricaima
from the involvesd situation which was
occasioned by the war. The 0.v"m?;'
at Washington i about to aid In the
".fled readjustment, and It i. regarded
by Mr. Robert a especially gratifying
that on the whole labor throughout the
United State 1 taking a reasonable view
of situation. ,

Chicago Grain
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire,
Chicago, Aug. 22. Wheat staged
a rally late in the session and the
market closed at top figures. The
unexpected decrease in the visible
supply led to covering on the part
of shorts and later a report to the
crtect that the house of representa
tives at Washington had passed a
bill authorizing the war finance cor
'oration to loan $1,000,000,000 to as
sist farmers in marketing their crops
brought on an additional wave of
buying, causing a big advance. At
the finish, wheat was 2-A(a3c high
er; corn llc up and oats Vi
YiZ higher. Provisions were weak,
Vessel room was chartered for 165,-
000 bushels wheat, 150,000 bushels
corn and 475,000 bushels cats at l?4c
to Buffalo. Cash wheat premiums
were unchanged, save red winter,
which ruled higher; corn and oats
basis were easier.
Wheat market was advanced to a
fair extent in the foremost part of
tne session, but in the later trading
all of the grain was eliminated. Early
trade was featured by good pur
chases bya prominent shipping con
cern, which some close observers
were inclined to credit to a local pn
fessional who was covering his
short lines.
Locals Follow Buying.
Locals followed this buying but thev
were vompenea 10 retrace ineir steps later
when commission houses became free
sellers because of a surprisingly big move
ment of winter wheat In the southeast,
Kansas City receiving 770 cars for the day.
This combined selling forces the market
back to the previous finish. Resting
orders absorbed the offerings on the break.
Tne marketing of spring wheat la fairly
liberal, but somewhat below general ex
pectations. Receipts locally were es-
timatel at 400 cars.
Corn prices were kept above the close
of Saturday. General interest displayed
in this cereal was light. Locals were
sellers on the heavy arrivals here, the
estimate calling for 900 cars. The De
cember delivery was picked up by shipping
houses. Commission house trade- was
mixed. Seaboard reported a big business
worked for export account, the amount
being placed at 800,000 bushels on over
night orders. Domestic shipping demand
was fair and sales of 60,000 bushels were
made.
Oata reflected the prevailing local
opinion that the bottom has been reached,
many traders who put out line on last
week s break covering tnis morning, com
mission house buying was on a much
broader scale and of an excellent class.
Cash oats also displayed good strength
from the start, opening c higher. Ship
ping sales of 80,000 bushels early gave
1nriiratinnfl nf n renewal of an active
shipping demand. Country offerings of
oats to arrive again were ngnt.
Cash rye closed llo lower. No, 3
sold at 9999c; No. 3 at 9596c
Pit Note.
A rahln from Buenos Aires to an ex
port house said that although! price for
wheat in that country were 10 per cent
nhnvA an exnort basis holders would not
sell, expecting an advance similar to that
in flax, oats and corn. It Is expected ship
ments will be practically nil. The pros
pects for the new crop are most Irregu
lar and there 1 still a great need of rain:
T,np.l com stocks are down to 3.579,000
bushels, decreasing 2,374,000 bushels for the
week. Wheat stocks decreased 1,118,000
bushels to 6,248,000 bushels, while oats con
tinued to pile up rapidly, increasing 1,
870,000 bushels for the week here.
Minneapolis cash wheat was easy to 6c
lower for No. 3 wheat, with a good de
mand. Most of the offerings were cleaned
up. Duluth was bidding 20o over Septem
ber lor NO. I darn nortnern jor an au
gust shipment, and 15o over for shipment
by September 15.
Wheat Receipts Slump.
The receipts of wheat in the northwest
over the week-end were smaller than ex
pected, Minneapolis having 479 cars,
which! is not a big run. Duluth had 160
cars, and the two points combined had
639 cars, against 585 cars a year ago. '
mills apparently aro taking the spring
wheat arrivals and paying high prices for
the current arrivals. Winnipeg arrivals
are gradually increasing and the move
ment will start earlier than a year ago.
An advance in Argentine price for wheat
Saturday was due to short covering.
Broomhall cabled that rains would be
welcome in that country. Country sales
of corn were said to be falling off, end
reserves are getting low.
The northern hemisphere win nave a
total wheat crop of 60,200,000 tons, com
pared to 61,300,000 In 1920, according to
the international institute of grain.

By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
New York, Aug. 22. The weak
ness which prevailed on the stock
exchange today, with only a moder
ate volume of business done, af
fected both industrial and railway
shares. It appeared to be again the
result of pressure from professional
speculators and it did not arise from
any news of the day. The proba
bility is that this pressure on the
market has been effective chiefly be
cause of the financial communities'
mood, which in turn had been af
fected by the ramifications of the
recent unlucky ventures in South
American trade.
Any situation which, like the Mercan
tile Bank of the Americas incident, calls
for organized banking relief, is bound to
disturb financial sentiment, and this par
ticular episode cannot have failed to exert
at least a deterrent Influence. Such In
fluence must always be recognized and
allowed for: it is apt to be greater when
people in general have been in the dark
as to the exact nature and scope of the
matter, and it does not always disappear
at once, even when the relief measures
have been made effective.
No change occurred In today's monev
market; rate for call loans remained ail
day at last week's low rat of 6t4 tier
cent. Foreign exchange was slightly
lower an tne case or most European mar
kets, and distinctly weak In the case of
Berlin. The mark, which fell from 1.19o
on Monday last week to 1.06c on Tues
day, recovering by Thursday to 1.22c,
got down again today to 1.12c. ADDar-
ently today' pressure on the market for
German exchange originated In London,
where speculation for the fall in the mar
ket has seemed to be based, partly on
general principles and the future of the
financial necessities of Germany and
partly on possible disturbances incident to
the final payment must be made by the
end of August; but the best information
obtainable has been to the effect that it
is already virtually provided for.
