in their behalf. Representatives OF

that changes in the investment mar

"But are three sources Of profit pos

righteous, normal interest on the in

Mr.. Redfield said that nearly thre

years interest would soon be due on
100000 to the Allies and would bring
the debt up to $11 900 600, 900. He de-
cared that this sum would probably be
funded.
Dwight W. Morrow, of J. P. Morgan
& Co., who spoke tonight, raised the
question whether America was tinan-
cially able to bear the burden of tinanc-
ing Europe's colossal purchases, and
in striving TO answer it he concluded
that everything rested on the ability
of the plain American to save.
"The one Fundamental thought that
we must hold on to-" the banker in
sisted, 'is that while there may be
many minor actors in the great enter
prise Of the restoration of Europe,
the indispensable man in that enter
prise, the hero in that enterprise, will
be the plain, old fashioned man who
spends less than he produces and thus
creates the fund without which all of
the plans for the restoration of Europe
must come to naught.
Must Be Saver
"He may be rich or he may be poor
He may be a banker, or a merchant
OF II SCuOOl lcdCHcly oI wage Garner
But he must be a saver. For it will
be true in the future, as it has been
in the past, that there is only one way
for the capital fund to increase, and
that is by the accumulation of savings
Fortunately this country has had some
education in saving during the las,
two years.
"Thc second fundamental question is
whether this old-fashioned man who
has saved money can find people tc
whom he is willing to lend it, and that
is not nearly as simple matter as il
seems. We have heard that there is
no way to get credit for European
countries except through receivers
certificates.
ave have heard that Europe has beer
wounded 50 badly that she cannot re.
cover in a hundred years. May I be
permitted to say that such talk is no,
encouraging to the plain individual
who has saved something for his chill
drcn, and who is looking for somebod,
to whom he is willing to lend his say
ings? wish some one might explain
the real elements Of strength in Eu-
rope to-day. In my opinion there arc

Incidence. The workers., pleading the

vain did economists point out that to
remedy the general shortage it WAS
necessary to work and increase produc-

merits of the workers nor their right

Some years ago. a law was passed
allowing the judge to parole for the
first offense persons between the ages
Of Ii and % years during their good
behavior, and to place them under a
guardian who should report their con-
duct monthly to the court. l have
paroled many. very many. young men
under this law. At the last term OF
court in Eldora, l paroled two young
men. aged, respectively. 10 and 20.
The mother of one lives in Nebraska,
the mother of the other in Michigan.
I gave them fatherly advice. and when
dismissing them. called them to the
desk, shook them by the hand, and
gave them my best wishes. A man
who had been in the court room and
saw what had done and heard what
j had said remarked: Il like that
judge, he has a heart in him"
