PAGE FOUR The United States has not borrowed any money from foreign governments since the adoption of the Constitution. It has paid its own way by taxing its own people and by duties on imports. _ In the country's early days of struggle the Continental gon-- gu obtained four separate loans from foreign countries The t was $181,500 bearing 5 per cent interest. Principal and inter-- est were both paid in full. Both principal and interest were also paid on a second loan of $3,267,000 drawing 5 per cent interest. France remitted the interest payments on the third loan of $1,815,000 and the fourth luan of $1,089,000. Portions of these loans remaining unpaid in 1795 were converted into domestic stock bearing 414 and 5%%4 per cent interest. These converted loans were subsequently »aid with interest. s The peak pension list for the Civil war did not come until more than 30 years after the war and the peak pension payments did not come until 25 years later. The last survivor of the Revo-- lutionary war died April 5, 1869. On May 13, 1905, the last sur-- vivor of the War of 1812 died. There are five living veterans of the war with Mexico. Some who served overseas in 1917 and 1918 may outlive the twentieth century. This country has always paid its bills and will continue to do so, and it expects other nations to do as much. Not to pay your debts is dishonorable under the American code of ethics and not to grant an unfortunate debtor an extension of time in which to make settlement is no less dishonorable. § There is now no Civil war veteran on the pension roll under the age of 80 years, so the nation must be reconciled to the loss of most of these venerable and revered survivors during the next decade. From now on the grim reaper will redouble his efforts. Each year the Memorial Day roll call of those who have passed away since the preceding May 30 grows longer. _ It was not until 1898 that the pension roll reached its peak with 745,822 pensioners. Due to added benefits the peak in pen-- sion payments--$141,377,515--was not reached until 1923. Since then the decline has been rapid. } f _ Pension figures for the Civil war give the nation some idea what the' world war will cost it through the veterans' bureau. The government is already spending many millions for the care and treatment of disabled veterans, and if history repeats itself, as it is likely to, the peak of this expenditure will not be reached for two or three decades. > AN OLD CANARD REVIVED | Discussion of America's war loans has revived charges thatl Colonial America obtained several foreign loans which it forgot to repay. Such statements are unfounded, the only foreign debts! the United States government ever having refused to repay being | those contracted by the Confederate States during the Civil war| for which the national goverrnment was not liable. l It is said there are more than' Some men are born rich; some ac-- 200 varieties of sharks in the ocean.+quire riches, and some are repub-- Pedestrians must be God's chosen people.

In March 1,283 of them died and April began with the rapidly thinning ranks re-- duced to 79,300.

Parker Willis, banking author-- ity recently called attention to the new system for financing business operations. Taking advantage of favorable money conditions, corpo-- rations have put out long--term bond issues at attractive rates, and used part of the proceeds for working capital, cutting down on their needs for short--term bank credit. . Their revolution in methods of financing helps to explain the relatively slack demand for commercial loans at banks. It also throws light on the tremendous expansion in the loans and investments of member banks. Even brokers® loans, which to the politically minded have to do only with speculation indirectly are used in part for business purposes, be-- cause they help securitI' dealers to carry their portfolios of new secur-- ity issues by which corporations get funds for their operations, These .chariged methods have seemingly reduced the power of the banks to influence short--term busi-- ness operations--at least to the ex-- tent that corporations have ceased to be dependent on short--term bank credit. .
