THAT MONEY fields for British enterprise might double the figures given. But it is not many years since the London Slock Exchange calculated the probable total of the foreigb Investments ol the Brit Ish people at more than 417,000,000, 000: It dues not seem pos-lble that any very great decrease can have taken place since 1890. Germany ia believed to have about half as much money invested abroad as France, or twice as muoh as Belgium, But Gorman wealth and German enter prise are alike fast gaining ground. and theee proportiona will toon be radically changed.
