Schwab Sees Prosperity and Transportation Needs
Charles M. Schwab, returning from Europe aboard the Lusitania, said the United States is at the threshold of a great prosperity period. He warned the next major issue will be developing transportation to handle a surge in manufacturing and commerce as European contracts reach delivery within the year. He noted Europe has placed more than 300 million dollars of orders in the war’s context. Schwab canceled provisional submarine contracts after guidance from Secretary Bryan, while securing other war munitions deals abroad. He recalled the Olympic rescue incident but refused to discuss it further, noting the Audacious did indeed go down.
