A King Who Pays Debts

chiyalrous as far as tinauctal matters are
concerned Whereas most Of MS brother

loEances for ore thing and another. Italy 5
ruler adopts a directly contrary policy.
Thus fne fact has just been brought 10
light that. In pursuance OF a promise which
ne made at the time OF. his accession 70
the 1hrame, he has just completed the laal
lnstaAmenS Of the sum OF s.. 8sssee9 which
he has contributes toward the extinc ton
Of the national debt Of his counsry-an un-
precedented and unique piece OF royal mo-
nlncence- Moreover. although parliament
las voted 10 his only son an allowance OF
se0 go per annunl, the king returns out OF
his own pocket an equivalent amount to
the national treasury each tine a pay
menr 70 the crown prince is made by the
state. Besides this, Humbert has paid of.
every cent OF the enormous Indebtedness
OF his father, which he was under no obi
cation whatsoever 30 do. and moreover has
subscribed very> largely TO every public
fund thai has been started for the relief OF
distress. The only parallel 10 be found is
the case OF the queen regent OF Spain. who
has declined 10 touch cent OF the large
allowances TO which she Is entitled as re-
gent and as a widowed queen. She de-
elares that her sons civil list Is quite big
enough fer the maintenance Of the royal
family, and that she could not dream OF
becoming burden 10 the national treas

ment to the sundry civil service appropri-

withdrawal and throws the whole vast
area open for settlement again. The
house will concur in the amendment with
out doubt. and the president viii have TO
