have both urown to Kat proportion
and, today, tho current political and

havo a very real relation to tho wel

PumIIok questions about trade and

Important that every plrnae of trade
and financial development abroad
ahotild be rtu'orted pormptly to thoao
reaponalblu for the conduct of fie
Kfout intermit Inal bank, la order to
Holve Hie probli-ma of obtaining thU
Itiformatioti day by day, many of
thneo liiMtltdtlon have found It necea
nary to orj',niilz eapeclally equipped
Kervho branrtua chanced with 'this
tai.b. a h tt la lmoomilblo for (be
hnraaaed and overworked officers to
devote to It the study and attention
required by this duty.
A typical example of the develop
ment of thbt brunch of banking serv
ice la tho ForelKn Trad Uureauof the
Guaranty Trut Company, anu me
range of Its actlvltioa disclose plainly
tho character anl scope of tho pres
ent demand by the banks and the pub
lic for accurate and up to date service
In this field. This Bureau draws on
tho valuable sources of Information
available to U lu every country,
though the branches and banking
correspondents of the Guaranty Trout
Company itself, whoao direct relation
are world wide In extent. It receives
a flood of material from official publi
cation of foreign countries, from our
own Government and from foreign
dally and weekly journals, magaxlnes,
report of forelKn trade organisations,
and from American Chamber of Com
morco in commercial centers overseas.
It maintains closo relations with for
olKn consular officers stationed In
New York and with merchants trading
in export and Import commodities of
every class and with every market
Strangers from foreign countries are
conntantly visiting the office, each
contributing his quota of specifies
news or point of view about condi
tions In his home country.
As scores of forelsn papers and doe
uments are currently studied, tho re
search assistants employed In the
Hureau muat, of course, be qualified
to read languages other than English
and. in fact, knowledge of eight or ten
languages Is available.
By HAROLD f. GREENE1
loj tho background of this work
there is a richly equipped commercial
library and there are also elaborate
filos packed with records of every son
that might at any tlmo contrlbuate to
accurae Judgment of condition abroad
These records are claBHlfied by country
or city, by commodities entering in
to foerlgn trad, by firm nunie of
possible buyers or seller of any class
of products and In any trade center
at heme and abroad. They Include
copies of foreign tariffs and trade and
banking laws, informal ion on commer
cial and banking practices, credit
terms, facts alxut transportation and
innumcrblo detftJla about Industries
agricultural development lu every
part of the world.
In fact, th0 Ideal of the office is to
be prepared to answer any question in
the field of foreign trade or Interna
tlonal banking that can be answered
tiirough the Intelligent collection and
digesting of Information available
from any source and through the em
ployment of a peraonnol especially
trained and with experience which
rhould qualify them for the task of
keeping fully Informed on these sub
jects, lu actual practice. It Is found
that this purpose Is fulfilled to a de
gree that Is at times surplrslng and
gratifying to those charged with the
development of this service. The In
quiries received In ennnecion with th-n
work of the bank Itself or which ate
stitimJtted by Its client, cover an
extraordinary range, but It is rare
that some adequate or helpful reply
cannot b0 made to the question pr
pounded, and often It Is possible to
give to the Inquirer a report that
covers very fully the ma'itera In which
he is interested. Making such re
ports In the form of research manu
scripts is a dally routine in the
Hureau, In addition to the information
that la given through personal Inter
view with clients or by letter In re
sponse to Incoming correspondence.
Every fortnight, also, a carefully
edited compilation of specific and
practical foreign trade facts, chosen
from the great volume of material
that has passed under the eye of
the research assistants of the Hur
eau, la published In a convenient bul
letin and distributed to an extenslbe
mailing lbit. This places at the ser
vice of a large number of merchants
and manufacturers tho benefit of the
careful survey of the world conditions
that has been made from day to day
by the corps of trained observers a
ervlce that few private firms would
find It practicable or possible to
establish.
Another branch of foreign trade
service that contributes materially to
the value of the bank's foreign trade
promotion work: Is the Foreign Credit
purchasers abroad la currently com-1
piled. An Increasing Interest in the
possibilities of giving credit In
foreign countries la to be noted as a
result of the present exchange condi
tion and tbe desire of many American
exporter to create good will through
tho granting of reasonable amounts
of credit to worthy foreign customers.
The aid and stimulation that such
service may give to foreign trade Is
obvious. It Is but another step for
ward In the constantly extending
specialization of banking organiza
tion, whl'-h Is forced upon the great
er institutions in this field. Its value
In plainly shown by the numger of In
quiries which come from other banks
throughout the country to which
Manufacturers and merchants apply
for Information about the factors in
export trade with which they are not
familiar. It Is possible on a large
hcalo naturally only to organizations
with farflung connections all over
tin world, but it I typical of the
readiness of our great corporations
to meet the requirements of any situ
atlon with vhlon and resourceful
noft.

a driving chain is to jack up the rear

of the countershaft sprocket If the
rear wehel is then turned until It is
possible to engage the first link of
the other end of the chain with that
tooth of the sprocket which brings
the lings to be Joined together and
if the wheel is then turned back far
enough so that both ends of the chain
are held on the sprockets.

Statistician to Research That Reveals Names of
Twenty-two of Fifty-six Famous Americans
BILLY SUNDAY'S "Who's Who in Hell" is well-known wher
ever the former baseball hero has displayed his modern
evangelistic methods. Its roster is sprinkled plentifully with
Unitarians, a fact which has inspired an embryo statistician (o
attempt to verify the spectacular revivalist's claim with this result.
Instead of finding that all these good men and women had arrived
af the destination arbitrarily assigned to them, rather did the seeker
for truth discover that they were in the Hall of Fame I
There are fifty-six tablets already in place in the colonnade of the
memorial library at New York University. Elections ire held every
five years, and the fifth election sincj the voting began in 1900 is about
to be held. Twenty-two Unitarians are included among the fifty-six,
and several others are in nomination for election this year. The final
roll of Americans conspicuously identified with the progress and fame
of tbe United States is limited to 2S0.

Charlotte Cuahiuan, the famous actress. Harriet IVecher

As candidates mv rot tw placed in nomination until they
hare been dead ten years BiUv Sunday la not eligible. Among
the four preacher and theologian who havebeen elected,
however, is William Ellerv Channing, who presented so
forcibly the principles of the Unitarian faith that aa the result
of a aingle sermon 130 churches severed their former denomi
national tics and accepted his position.
Thn one eermon. ttnnw since 113 n thp "Baltimore
sermon", exerted an immediate tangible Inflnenee that Is
revealed today In the numerous "First Parishes" of the Pil
grim Fathers which have been for a century Included In the
Unitarian Fellowship. Channing'i sermon was not an emo-
tinni1 mnrit rv ;T - on n npnc'on srMfH tn tMq fI-iT TTOTM he
described as a "revival," but was a carefully conceived and
rationally phrased statement of a great thinker and eloquent
preacher who hnd been invited from Bostoa to Baltimore to
preach the sermon at the installation of the minister who had
been called to luad a uew society of Christian liberals.
A reports spread of the principle enunciated hy Channing
there came such a demand for them in the printed word that
five editions were exhausted in six weeks. A century later
Channing's "Unitarian Christianity" still enjoy a large cir
culation among the publications of the American Unitarian
Association, and is being used extensively in the Unitarian
religions and educational campaign of which William H. Tat
is the leader. In 1900, Chnnning wa elected to the Hall if
Fame with Jonathan Edwards and Hnry Ward Beechar.
Phillips Brook wa added to the list in 1910. It 1 igmnat
that Beecher and Brooka were among the mot libera
thinkers in their respective orthodox communions.
