Central America Needs Our Help In
Debt Adjustment.

Debt Adjustment.
IN Central America the aim has
been to help such countries as Mica
ragua and Honduras to help them
selves. They are the immediate bene-
ficiaries. The national benefit to the
United States is two-fold. First. IL Is
obvious that the Monroe doctrine Is
more vital in the neighborhood OF the
Panama canal and the zone of the
Caribbean than anywhere else. There.
too, the maintenance Of that doctrine
falls most heavily upon the United
States. IL liz therefore essential that
the countries within that sphere shall
be removed from the jeopardy involved
by heavy foreign debt and chaotic ma
tional finances and from the ever-pres-
ent danger OF international complica
tons due to disorder at home. Hence
the United States has been glad to en-
courage and support American bankers
who were willing to lend a helping
hand to the financial rehabilitation OF
such countries because this financial
rehabilitation and the protection of
their custom houses from being the
prey of would-be dictators would re-
move at one stroke the menace OF for
eign creditors and the menace of revo-
lutionary disorder.
The second advantage to the United
States Is one affecting chiefly all the
southern and quiz ports ana the business
and industry OF the south. The republics
OF Central American and the Caribbean
possess great natural wealth. They need
only n measure OF stability and the means
of financial regeneration to enter upon
an era of peace and prosperity. bringing
profit and happiness to themselves and at
the same time creating conditions sure to
lead to fiourshing interchange OF trade
with this country.
l wish to call your especial attention to
the recent occurrences in Nicaragua for
I believe the terrible events recorded there
during the revolution OF the past sum-
mer-the useless loss OF life, the devasta-
ton of property. the bombardment or de-
fenseless cities, the killing and wound
Ing OF women and children, the torturing
of non-combatants, to exact contributions.
and the suffering of thousands OF human
beings-might' have been averted had the
department of state, through approval OF
the loan convention by the senate, been
permitted to carry out its now well-devel-
oped policy of encouraging the extending
OF financial aid to weak Central American
states with the primary objects OF avoid
ing just such revolutions by assisting
those republics TO rehabhtate their
finances, to establish their currency on a
stable basis, to remove the custom houses
from the danger OF revolutions by arrang-

Wireless Map.

A novelty In the way OF maps has
just been issued by the German impe-
rial postoffice, which has compiled a
chart showing the principal wireless
telegraph stations in the world. The
object is to advertise the facilities
now afforded in Germany for "draht-
lose" telegraphy. German stations
are. of course. given special promi-
nence on the map. and in this connec.
ton it is interesting to note that the
station at Neuen is claimed to be the
most powerful in existence, its range
being 2.100 miles. This is two hun.
dred miles more than that of Eiffel
tower.

FOREIGN RELATIONS IS TAFT'S SUBJECT
Congress Is Told Of Improvements in Consular and
Diplomatic Corps and Good Results Of Un-
Gle Sans Efforts in Latin America.

Of q war In Nicaragua; the hating OF
internecine strife in Honduras. The
government of the United States was
thanked for its influence toward the
restoration of amicable relations be-
tween the Argentine Republic and Bo-
livia. The diplomacy OF the United
states Is Sctive In seeking to assuage
the remaining ill-feeling between this
country and the Republic of Colombia.
In the recent civil war in China the
United States successfully Joined with
the other interested powers In urging
an early cessation OF hostilities. An
agreement has been reached between
the governments OF Chile and Peru
whereby the celebrated Tacna-Arica
dispute. which has so long embittered
international relations on the west
coast OF South America. has at last
been adjusted. simultaneously came
the news that the boundary dispute
between Peru and Ecuador had entered
upon a stage of amicable settlement.
The position OF the United States in
reference to the Tacna-Aric dispute
between Chile and Peru has been one
OF non -intervention, but one of friendly
influence and pacific counsel through
out the period during which the dis
pute In question has, been the subject

China.
In China the policy of encouraging
financial investment to enable that
country to help itself has had the re-
suit OF giving new life and practical
application to the open-door policy.
The consistent purpose OF the present
administration has been to encourage
the use of American capital in the
development OF China by the promo
ton of those essential reforms to
which China is pledged by treaties
with the United States and other pow
ers. The hypothecation to foreign
bankers in connection with certain in
dustrial enterprises. such as the HUI
kuang railways OF the national reve-
nues upon which these reforms de-
pended. led the department OF state
early in the administration to demand
for American citizens participation in
such enterprises. in order that the
United States might have equal rights
and an equal voice In all questions
pertaining to the disposition of the
public revenues concerned. The same
policy of promoting international ac-
cord among the powers having similar
treaty rights as ourselves in the mat
ters OF reform. which could not be

Clark and Wilson.

At Lexington, KY, Thursday Champ
Clark complained Of the effort In some
quarters to make him appear cold toward
Mr.. Wi sons candidacy. OF course he Is
not Co d. but sincerely desires Mr.. Will
sons election, and is doing what he can
to bring 1t about. What more can be ex-
pected OF him than stamping? Surely
the Wilsonites ought to be satisfied with
that. as Mr.. Clark Is eoncededly one Of
the best stumpers in the country.
The democratic party will suffer II any
bad blood Is created between these two
men. If the party wins In November
they will be brought together for most
important work. and unless there is con-
fidence between them they will not be
able to do their work well.
And 1t may be stated that Mr.. Wilson
VIII lean more heavily on Mr.. Clark than
Mr.. Clark on him. In matters OF ma
tional legislation Mr.. Wilson is altogether

without experience, while Mr.. Clark is a
veteran.
Take the tariff. Mr.. Wilson knows the
subject only accidentally. Mr.. Clark as
a legislator has participated in three re-
visions He entered Congress just in
time to vote on the Wilson tariff bill, a
democratic measure. Three years later
he had become prominent man on his
side of the House. and helped lead the
opposition to the Dingley bill, a republi-
can measure. Two years ago he led the
minority in opposition to the Payne bill,
another republican measure. He passes.
therefore. very properly as an authority
on the tariff from the democratic point
Of view
If Mr.. Wilson is elected President his
first recommendation to Congress will be
for a revision of the Payne law. and the
man he will need most as an adviser and
coadjutor will be the Speaker of the
House, who will be Mr. Clark. AS Speak
er Mr.. Clark has been shorn of some au-
thority. but not of any of his knowledge
of the tariff. or of his Judgment as to
congressional procedure. He will possess
information of so much scope and value
his suggestions should carry great weight
at the White House
1t would have been strange if Mr.. Clark
had not felt his defeat at Baltimore keen
ly. Accomplished as it was by a man in
whom he had always placed the most
perfect confidence. and in circumstances
warranting resentment. the Speaker ex-
pressed himself at the time with a vigor
fully justified. But in nothing he has
said or done since has he shown dis
position Ito take it out of Mr.. Wilson.
He is supporting him Loyalty, and keep
ing that account entirely separate from
his account with Mr.. Bryan.

Murphy and O'Gorman.

Certain very wicked persons-some OF
them "close to" the democratic national
committee-are trying to create trouble
between Senator O'Gorman and Charles
f. Murphy. They would use Mr.. o Cor
man to overthrow Mr.. Murphy, not only
as leader of the New York state de-
mocracy. but the leader of Tammany
Hall Their desire is to send Mr.. Murphy
to the scrap heap.
Is 1t the business of a national commit
tee to NEEDLE in such a matter? Ordi-
narily, no. But these are not ordinary
times. Strange doinss are to be noted
on every hand.
For an instance, the democratic national
committee. through a subcommittee, has
just picked a man TO contest with James
Smith, jr., for the democratic nomination
for senator from New Jersey. Any
authority for the interference? None
whatever. The democrats of New Jersey
mad not requested the step. Will they
stand for it now that it has been taken?
That remains to be seen. 1t is the belief
that the subcommittee acted for Mr..
Wilson. and the approval of the chief
may carry far.
MIR. OGorman as senator owes quite as
much to Mr.. Murphy as Mr.. Dix does as
governor That is to say Mr.. Murphy
possessed and exercised the controlling
power which lifted both men into office.
Mr. Dix was not Mr.. Murphys first
choice for governor, but as matters shap-
ed themselves he became necessary to
Mr.. Murphy'S scheme for state control,
and so was nominated and elected Mr..
O'Gorman was not Mr.. Murphy's first
choice for senator. William F. Sheehan
was But when it had been demonstrated
that Mr.. Sheehan could not be elected,
and a compromise man became necessary,
Mr.. OGOrman was chosen. When Mr.
Murphy waved his wand of boss-ship. Mr.
O'Gorman dropped his black silk gown
and put on the senatorial toga.
Will Mr.. O'Gorman lend himself to this
business? He is much higher grade
man in every way than Mr.. Murphy. AS
a lawyer his rank is excellent AS a
judge he commanded much respect
While he has not as yet shown any spe-
ciai fitness for the senate. he is young
there, and time may develop him.
But. after all is said. Mr.. O'Gorman is
Tammany man. and has been advanced
all along the line by Tammanys in
fiuence. In this battle Tammany is Muir
ply and Murphy is Tammany. The man.,
republican. democrat or independent, who
swats Mr.. Murphy swats the organization
OF which Mr.. Murphy Is the full and ac-
credited leader. While Mr.. Dix is stand
Ing by the power that made him, will Mr.
O'Gorman desert, and fight. the same
power that made him?
