Just Plain Facts

We may as well recognize at the
start that the only way in which
credit can be extended to Europe as
a whole is by the government OF the
United States itself The only way u.
which the government OF the United
States can secure funds for this pur-
pose is by means of government
loan. Such a loan must be put out
at a rate of interest sufficiently hlSn
to attract money which would other
wise be invested in the securities OF
private enterprises now obtainable AZ
prices which yield higher returns than
our government loans.
In other words, the government or
the United states would offer to is
own people a security in a form which
they have been trained 10 recognize
as the best i'll the world, based on
the collateral security Of a foreign
government, secured in turn by the
undertakings of groups OF business
men in the country of such foreign
government To express it in still
another way, the credits SO sorely
needed by Europe would be extended
directly to the people of Europe
through the medium of their own
governments and that of the United
States.
Europe needs help. That help
must come from the United States
1t is not forthcoming through the
medium of private agencies. There
fore. it should come through the in
PREVENTION of governments, aided by
trained business men, working for
such governments.

PEACE ABOUT MIDDLE OF JUNE,

June 10Th now seems to be the ear
lest date for signature of the peace
with Germany, while the Austrian
treaty. according to the British view,
Will be ready for presentation toward
the close of next week.
The Germans expected their pro-
posals to he ready Thursday of this
week, after which the Allies will take
from two to six days to examine their
proposals. when the replies will be
given and the Germans asked to sign
forthwith. In British circles modifi-
cations>of the treaty are now consid-
cred probable, especially in relation
TO the Saar arrangement and the
method Of collection of reparations
after the first installment
The council of five, it is believed
has decided to take economic action
In relation to the Polish-Ukrainian
fgntiHg unless it stops forthwith.
They also have considered renorts
that Germany is preparing for mill
tary action in Silesia, and have de-
cided to make representations
through Marshal Foch, at Spa, as to
the consequences OF any such move.
The British view against the parti-
tion of the Turkish Empire, owing to
its probable injurious reaction on Eu-
ropean Mussulman interest in the
Near East, has prevailed, and the
Turks now probably will be left the
Turkish part Of Anatolia. the powers
helping in matters of order and CIV
ing economic assistance.
The British sugges. that the new
Turkish map will give to Great Bri-
tain the mandate over Mesopotamia,
the French over Syria, with Palestine

mandate over the coastal territory
where they predominant.
Z The doubts raised as to whether
Americe will accept the mandate over
Constantinople admittedly makes the
solution OF that problem difficult, as
no European power wishes to see any

GERMANY CAN'T ESCAPE RESPONSIBILITY.

Germany's economic status under
the terms of the peace treaty is the
result of her own behavior. particu-
!arly through the ruthless submarine
warfare, the Allied and Associated
Council informed Count Won Brock
dorf-Rantzau. in answer to his note
on the economic questions. The AL
lied answer. which was made public
last Friday. with the text of the
German note, is negative. It points
out that the German plea is exagger-
ated and ignores the fundamental
consideration which led to the impo-
Sltion of the terms.
The loss to world shipping through
the German submarine campaign, it
IS declared in reply, was nearly 49,
100000 tons. The Allies propose to
make Germany repay only 100000
tons. Responsibility for this short
age IN shipping is placed directly up
on Germany and the German share
In replacing it is called very mod
erate.''
In answer to the German plea that
Germany will be called upon to feed
67,OOO,OO0 persons, it is declared
that the peace treaty takes 6,OOO,-
600 out of German control. It IS add
ed that German agriculture is in bet
ter shape than that of Poland, Bel
gium and northern France, where
the fighting was heaviest.
The Germans complained that they
would lose certain necessary COM
modities. The Allies reply is that
Germany can import these goods.
Germany, it is asserted, destroyed
the Lens coal fields, and the coal
fields taken from her in payment for
the destruction wrought still leaves
her sufficient sources OF fuel
TIE Germans complained that the
German population would suffer un-
der the treaty, which was described
as death sentence" The reply
poiuts out that all countries are suf-
fering as result OF the war and
there is no reason why Germany,
which was responsible for the war.
should not suffer
