The United States has now been almost exactly a year at war, and no summary of the period could touch the core of the financial situation without taking account, first, of the financial effort of the United States in its new relations to the war, and, second, the course of the economic situation both before and after the conflict. Problems of labor and capital, problems of governmental relations to industry, problems of Germany's trade relations with the rest of the civilized world, are at present in a status which makes prediction difficult if not impossible. To the United States, the foremost matter of reassurance is the financial independence which it has shown throughout the war and is showing at the present day.
