But this reaction against Congress nothing new. Whatever pafty is in power bas to stand the brunt, of criticism caused by the low calibre of the men who go into pulitics. The record of the present Congress is a poor that the Democrats ought to lock forward to a sweeping victory. Experience has shown that the party in opposition is neither better the worse than the party in power.

But if the Democrats are returned again there is no guarantee times will The nny "better, Salit, seems the revolt against the Republicans, while certain to be widespread, will probably not be suheiently extensive to hand the country Back to the Democrats.

President Harding does not share in the unpopularity of Congress. He has made for enemies during his term, thus far. He has done nothing startling. positively or negatively. When he has spoken he has expressed the ordinary, commonplace view of the ordinary, coin- monplace person, and this fact has put him on a companionship level with the average voter. Mr. Harding's salvation is his lack of intellectual brilliance.

None of the other bonds or notes in, the strong-rooms is missing. There is no clue at present by which it is possible to fix the date when the notes wore taken.

· In addition to the bonds and notes in the strong-rooms, it is stated that plates from which they are printed are also stored there. Only the most trusted members of the firm ace allowed to enter the rooms and the fact that an unauthorised person gained admis sion and removed the Swiss notes adds to the mystery.

GERMAN TRADE OUTLOOK.

LIVING ON CAPITAL.

The German Congress of Trade, which concluded its meeting at Breslau early last month, passed a resolution pro- testing against the taxation of profits solely due to the depreciation of the purchasing value of the mark. The President of the Central Traders, Dr. Louis Ravené, ascribed the present situation in Germany to the fact that the country had for years been expending its capital without creating any real new capital.

The German people, he said, were living, Eot on the profits of their labour, but on the sale of paper money and on the squand- ering of capital. In a number of occupations the output from labour had dropped to little more than one-half of the pre-wur standard. The entire capital invested, in public funds had already been spent; bank deposits, savings bank deposits, and capital sunk in urban real estate had enormously decreased in value, while the working capital of trade, industry, agriculture, and retail trade had shrunk considerably.

It was so unpleasant task for anybody to have to tell the nation that it must not spend more than is produced. German home prices had remained considerably below world prices because German basi. ness men had been working on a false These low prices were usually, achieved only by forfeiting capital, some- times voluntarily, and sometimes under

pressure. The

causes thus ascribed by Dr. Ravené to German commercial prosperity during the last two years are only part of the story, bay they are part that is constantly overlooked, and they help in enme measure to explain the bewildering trade returns “just published. German factories are filled up. with orders and unemployment can hardly be said to exist. But at the same time German capital is constantly shrinking, and in spite of the repeated issue of new shares, it grows steadily less in gold values. In fact it would appear that Germany... is apeading capital to make trade at prices that can only result in the loss of further capital. What is going on in the subsidi zed German milways is going on less obviously in German trade. The question
