The children give in the proper

their gifts by what others give, for
every boy and girl sign shis own

How They Can Pay

\ Cornell professor has an ingeni-
Gus suggestion for enabling the Ger
man people to meet their war obi
cations. He assumes as matter OF
course that they must pay for all
the damage they have done in other
countries. But how?
Germany's own war debt amounts
to probably half of her national
wealth. That fact would seem to
preclude the payment of the desired
billions to Belgium, France and 9th
er wronged nations. But as the
professor points out, that debt is
almost entirely owed by Germans to
Germans 1t is a matter of domestic
bookkeeping. 1t does not much af-
feet the actual, material wealth OF
the country 1t might therefore be
wiped out by the simple method of
reputation, leaving clean slate on
which to write the post-bellum in
debledness of Germany to her self
made enemies.
This debt, " hich the peace terms
Will impose, might be taken care of,
the professor thinks, by the follow
ing plan: The big fortunes and the
landed estates OF Germany could be
seized by the new government. The
money and securities so obtained
could be used directly to help pay
the indemnities. The estates could
pie on long-term payments, after
the manner of the Irish land distri-
button, except that in this case the
money would go mostly not to the
former owners, but to the allied
countries.
The idea is submitted to the Ger
man people for what it is worth. It
seems drastic, but there is at least
measure of poetic justice in it,
inasmuch as the big capitalists and
Junker landowners were primarily
responsible for the war which made
Germany liable to these indemnities.
