State Debt Must Be
Refunded, Of Course,
Says Governor-Elect
Georgia Bonds Fine Investment,
So Little Trouble Should
Be Experienced.

There is no question of what is to be
done about the state debt, which falls
due in 1915" said John NJ Slaton, gov
ernor-elect to-day. The debt, OF
course must be refunded. The only
matters to be arranged are the details,
such as the terms and the term of
years of the bonds.
There ought to be no trouble about
the floating of the issue The credit Of
the state Of Georgia ought 70 be the
best of any state I'm the Union. Georgia
always has met its obligations on the
minute and has pledged the entire
public property of the state to payment
OF its bonded debt. The railroad alone
lie worth many times the state debt, and
under the law the bonded debt can not
be increased.
"a legislative committee, acting i'm
conjunction with the governor and the
state treasurer. ought to be able easily
to arrange the date of the issue, the
rate Of interest. and all necessary de-
tails. The bonds should run a sufficient
number of years to make them an at
tractive investment, and for the sink
ing fund to liquidate them at maturity
Atlanta bankers say bonds of the
state are an unusually favored invest
ment, and that an issue of $3,7OO,O00 can
be absorbed right In the state.

sons who may have accepted an invi-
tation to participate in the trip, but

President Announces Govern

of$125,OO0,0OOt to China.
NATION WILL NOT ACT
BILL COLLECTORS ROLE
Taft Administrations Practice
of Cementing Foreign Ties
With Cash Doomed.

WASHINGTON. March 19.-Presi-
dent Wilson has declared himself firm
ly against dollar diplomacy"
Following a conference with his cab
met. the president announced his ad-
mlnistration would not offer the gov
ernment's sponsorship to the proposed
loan of $125, 1000, 900 to China. and would
not in this or any other manner seek to
collect private debts by the influence
of the nation.
The policy of protecting, through the
influence Of the government. loan en-
terprises Of American banking firms
abroad was a part Of what was often
referred to as dollar diplomacy and
which reached its height during the
Taft administration.
Taft Requested Loan.
In his statement declaring the sus-
pension OF dollar diplomacy" Presi-
dent Wilson said:
I'VE are informed that at the re-
quest of the last administration a GER
tain group of American bankers under
took to participate in the loan now de-
sired by the government Of China zap
proximately $125.OOO OOO).
Our government wished American
bankers to participate along with the
bankers of other nations because IT de-
sired that the good will of the United
States toward China should be eKhib-
tied in this practical way, that Ameri-
can capital should have access &c that
great country, and that the United
States should be in q position to share
with the other powers any political re-
sponsibility that might be associated
with the development of the foreign
relations of China In connection with
her industrial and commercial enter
prises.
Objects to Conditions.
The present administration has been
asked by this group of bankers wheth
er it would also request them to par
ticipate in the loan. The representa-
tives of the bankers, through whom the
administration was approached, de-
clared that they would continue to seek
their share of the loan under the pro-
posed agreements only if expressly re-
quested to do so by the government.
The administration has declined to
make such request, because it did not
approve the conditions of the loan or
the implications Of responsibility on its
own part, which 1t was plainly told
would be involved in the request
"The conditions of the loan seem to
US to touch very nearly the admins
trative independence of China itself.
and this administration does not feel
that it ought. even by implication, to be
a party TO these conditions. The re-
sponsibility on its part which would be
implied in requesting the bankers to
undertake the loan might conceivably
go the length in some unhappy contin-
gency of forcible interference In the
financial and even the political affairs
of that great Oriental state Just now

power and of its obligations TO its peo-

eighty-six countries, where it is max
ing adherents and to which laborers
have been sent, where missions have
been opened, conferences organized
and schools, printing plants, and
sanitariums set in operation and
doing their appointed work. Instead
of a handful of believers, with few
facilities, there is now a body of be-
levers numbering ia 4,2O6, with
many and varied facilities for pro-
claiming the message. Among these
are the excellent training schools for
the preparation of laborers and it is
gratifying to know that the work of
these schools, so well supplemented
by other denominations institutions,
has been so effective that to-day
there is one active eyangelistic la
borer for every twenty-five members
in the denomination, and including
the laborers in denominational insti-
tutions there is one laborer for every
twelve members. The extension of
this work into so many countries has
made necessary the preparation of
literature to meet the requirements
in all the lands entered. This work
has been promptly undertaken and
to-day denominational literature is
prepared and circulated in seventy
five languages. And there are six
teen other languages in use as the
medium of communicating this orally
and in which the printed page will
in due time appear. The year 1912
realized the largest amount of funds
ever raised by the denomination as
we'll as the largest amount per
capita. The amount contributed for
all purposes was $2,702, ,099.02, and
the amount per capita was $23.66.
The per capita contributions during
the closing year of each of the five
decades since this work was organ
lied have been as follows: First dec
ade, $5.55; second, $3.50; third,
$11.59; fourth, S11.O1; fifth, $23.66.
