CAPITAL AFTER THE WAR. As a result nf the war existing capital bids fair to be depreciated for a good many years, Interest rates higher, and the cost of living higher, too. Of course, it is production and consumption that will constitute the main test of tha welfare of the people. But the creation of new loan capital has been so excessive that the capitalist will find in its depreciation that he is worse off than he was before. The capital will either have to be written down, or it will write itself down. That would not have been the case had it been created only within the saving powers of the people, and had it been expended thus providing its own remuneration. —"Dailv Telegraph" (Sydney).
