The demoralization in exchange Is not confined to Kuroie. It nttects Whether their currencies hnvo moved upwnrd .or downward, they hove u different basis of value to liguro In paying for goods contracted for In this country a short time ago. A decline In buying power repic - ihetils a dead loss to the purchaser of American goods. Tho Immediate or original foreign purchaher may not lose, but hu must pass the extra bur den of exchange to tho ultimate con sumer by charging n higher price, on good Imported into his country from America, although tlio American pro ducer receives no benefit from thnt higher price. This not only forcos tho foreigner to 'shim American goods, but Injects tho element of uncertainly Into all business transacted with this country. No llXed values can exist with tho rate for dollar and pounds, francs nnd lire and every other currency rising nnd falling from dny to day, carrying prices nnd the cost of living, wages, Interest rates and capital yields along with It Gold no longer serves ns u standard uf value because the nations that need It to stabilize their currency long ago oxhnu.'ted their reserve of the metal In buying war supplies. Mnny reme dies for the foreign exchange dilemma aro proposed. The International re servo bank, tho "I. V.

But nil of them aro subject to tho fatal criti cism that they contemplate thc crca Hon of something out of nothing. Whether an International bank were authorized to shovel out paper money by the renin, with the gdod will nnd support of every nation, In Kuropc, or whether nn exchange hank, ii gold pool, or nn International bond Issue were effected, tho one and only condition Hint would make the scheme a suc cess would be the participation of tho United States. Syllogisms wilt not make two bushels of wheat etow where one grew before; neither will tint currency based on nothing crcnto anything but n fnlse purchasing power.

On September 20, 1870, the Italian na tlonal nrmy," after overcoming the brief reslstnnco offered by Ui6 Papal State troojw, occupied Home. With the capture of thW ancient city the rulo of Victor Kmmaniki. II., who nine years before hrtd been proclaimed King of n reborn Italy, extended over tho Italian onlnuln, nnd n Htruggle of half a century against great odds and npiwrently Insuivrnblo dllllcultles ended In the unltlciitlon and liberation of the nation. In the consideration of tho prob lems now confronting Italy It Is Inter esting to look back over this half century PtmgRle from which she emerged victorious In 1870.

The- fight against foreign domln.l tlon began with tho revolution In Naples; it was ronowcu ny tno mili tary revolt In Piedmont, tho uprisings In favor of ltnllnn federation In I-om-bnrdy and the north, and the final widespread revolution of 1S17 nnd 18IS. The history of the half century j Is n recital of oppressions by Austria, 1 of Intrigues In the furtherance of for-, jelgu Interest and of opposition nnd I strife nt home. The years wero years of bitter disappointment for tho ad vocates of unity. Throughout Homo romulned tho great problem, the one demanding the mot serious consideration nnd tft the same time thc one most dllllcult of solution. OAVorn lind obtained from XAror.EoN III. n promise for support of ltnllnn unity, but tho Emperor wns never 'able to carry out his promise, principally bechttsc of the position which Homo occupied as the head of the Catholic world. The unfortunnte clash between Cwotin and GAntnAi.ni In the Italian I'nrllnmcnt socmen to hnve had Its real origin In n differ once of opinion regarding the occupa tlon ot tho scat of the Papacy.

Kntlrely without regard to whether ho bo a Dem. ocrot or a rtopubllcan, every thoughtful man In this country, Indeed every woman and every hoy nnd girl In tho landfc that Prem er Ml lerand aeP should hove tht opportunity of studying Benator Harding's speech. In It be out lined tlio wholo agricultural situation nnd lli danger which l facing tho cour. try that a change In our agriculture may threaten our Industrial life, nnd Indeed cndanijer our very (Jovernment. It you will turn to tho flics ot Tub New YonK IttaiAt-n of August, 1H9, you will find nn article tn which I pointed out tho Immlnenco of some of these dnngers, ns I ho been trying to do stendlly for tlm last .ten or fifteen years. Ilecauso nature with nn unprecedented lavlshncss In an unprecedented weather condition this summer has given us a far larger yield to tho acre of many of our food product than In the past wtt should not deielvo ourcelve by the abundant supply which nt the moment Is coming upon the market. Indeed, so far as wheat Is concerned. we mny yet find ourselves very baro df nn atlcquato bread suppty beforo next year's harvest. Though our wheat crop Is larger than wo bad reason to.nntlcl pato somo months ngo from nn acreage SS per cent, smaller than the preceding; year, It Is quits certain that beforo nn ! other crop carl In planted nnd harvested our supply of wheat will be practically exhausted. Hut,' broadly speaking, tho production of grain nnd of foodstuffs Is this year fairly large! It Is truo thnt nn early frost might cut short the prom Isc ot a big corn yield. In thi letter to Tun S'sw York Hsn ami last year I pointed out the great change which bad tnken place during tho lsst forty years tn the growth of city population nnd the relative decrease of country population. In I S SO more than 70 per cent ot our people lived In tho country, leaving only 30 per cent, for city population The present census will show probnbly considerably lew than 60 per cent. In the country, and for tho last twenty years tho drain of tho L,uniry t th. cty has been growing At an nccoteratlng rate. Every year ,i,j enormously to the number of food consumers nnd decreases the supply or r0CK producers.
