ii was agreed that the ostracism
should cease and neighborly atti-
tude should be adopted toward the
chief figure in this incident.
That the air in New Castle has
cleared for this couple and their child
may be accepted as a fact, for their
decision to leave town, reached when
the feeling against her ran highest,
has been reconsiderel, and they will
stay in their present home.
This Is the wise and brave thing for
them to do. If they run away they
can never recover their self-respect
As fugitives from New Castle of public
opinion they would never feel entirely
square with the world. But if they
fight for and win good opinion where
once it seemed TO be lost they will
have triumphed in a way which will
strengthen them for every trial which
shall hereafter come to them.
Too infrequently do women, assailed
unjustly as TO their characters, fight
in the open for their good names; too
many who have been merely unwise
do not attempt to clear their reputa-
tons when misfortune overtakes
them; too many rely solely on their
innocence and their own consciousness
Of virtue to vindicate them. A decent
selfrespect ignores some evil reports.
But much harm has been done by
silence where speech might have
mended matters. 1t is good to see Il
woman who fights for her repute and
refuses tamely to let the world be-
lieve the worst of her.

1t is now admitted in we'll informed
financial circles that Frederic Francois
Marsal. Minister of Finance, has aban-
doned his scheme for issuing new notes
wherewith to pay interest on outstand-
ing French loans, the nations financial
advisers stressing fNe fact that this
would merely relieve the situation tenn
porarily, leaving the country open to
dangers of increased initiation, as the
issue contemplated by the Finance Min
lister would seriously complicate inter-
national dealings.
The Finance Minister Is optimistic
in the belief that the new per cent.
loan which was opened officially yester.
day morning will bring in much wealth
which has been secreted especially in
the rural districts. and thereby enable
the Government to meet its obligations
as they fall due. In so far as Paris Is
concerned. the success of the loan is
assured. as the banks here We're
thronged with subscribers, while COM
mercial firms report business almost at
"A standstil, as is customary here each
time a row loan is placed on the market.
NJ Marsal expects TO get at least
"a, 900, 900, 900 francs in new money as
n result of this loan, n portion of which
will be devoted to repaying the Bank of
France for gold advances during the
war, while the remainder will be used
to cover the extraordinary budget, in

vances for Preparations pending receipt
of the German indemnity money.

carry. Indeed, throughout the year
the mail mans burden is made up
largely of superfuities. We are a
writing people and nobody considers
the cost of postage. Inquiries thar
will never be answered, quotations
that never will lead to a sale, bulls
that will never be paid, promises that
will never be kept-these bend the
shoulders of the good gray bagmen.
The fine thing about it is that the
mail carriers, knowing that their
metal is not all dross, carry the whole
with religious care for the benefit of
the good part.
SO lngrained in the postmen and
the public is this general respect for
anything with a stamp on it thai 1t
is rarely a postman is accused of vlo-
lating his trust. Even after BURLE-
SON had made the postal service q
joke the old respect for the stamp
remained.

Sir Ha mars Delusion.

The Associated Press report of
Wednesday nights debate In the
House of Commons attributes re-
markable statement to Sir HAMAR
Greenwood, who is the Chief Secre-
tary for Ireland:
HE [GREENwoopl incidentally re-
marked that America was no longer
welcoming emigration from Ireland
because it did not desire to swell the
vast total OF disturbing elements in
the Republic"
Some one, we fear, has been spool
ing Sir HAMAR. The United States
welcomes all immi grants who are con-
tent to live under our republican form
of government, who will work for
their livings and who will obey the
laws.
1t is rather the exceptional thing
to find an Irishman--by birth or ex-
traction-in the ranks of communism,
radical socialism or the /. w. w.
The freshman who comes to the
United States sees great opportnni-
ties They are better than were Of
fered to the Irish immigrants of forty
or fifty years ago, who had to find
their work in the ditch at little bet
ter than a dollar day.
The modern Irish immigrant finds
no need and no desire to rail against
the Government. He speaks and
thinks In English and he understands
the American system Of government,
politics and business lnstinctively. He
sees that he can become business
man or an office holder as fast as his
intelligence, industry and capability
will drive him.
Our disturbing elements of the
present are those which are preaching
the doctrine Of bOlsheyism in its vari-
Gus degrees The Irish in the United
States, practically all indlviduahsts.
resent the Soviet programme. Every
Irish immigrant who comes in at
Ellis Island would like to be mayor
or a millionaire.
1t may be, however, that Sir HA-
MAR thinks of some of the Irish in
America as disturbing elements" be-
cause they pass resolutions in favor
of an Irish republic. In this case the
disturbance occurs here but is noticed
most consplcuously on the seismo-
graph of British politics. 1t is not n
disturbance directed at the machinery
of the United States Government.

Prices Cannot Be Held Up.

The unvarnished truth about our
falling prices was told by the Se1re-
tary of the Treasury to the conVen-
ton of bankers. 1t needs as well to
be told to the managers of Industry
and business, to the " orkers in those
fields and TO the whole public II
needs to be understood by them all.
This truth, invinclble and inexor-
able, Is that inflated, artificial and
insupportable prices of abundant COM
moditles cannot be stepped from TALL
Ing toward the natural levels. You
might as well try to make the Niagara
waters rush up the falls instead of
down as to try to maintain war prices
for prodigious stocks of goods when
the consuming public will not and
cannot pay them.
Copper or steel, cotton or corn,
sugar or leather, it makes no differ
once under the laws of nature when
the supply is there to offer but the
demand is not there to take. Either
an abundant supply must come down
Of Its own accord in an orderly man
ner to find steady and general dis
tribution or 1t must be suddenly hurled
down of its own weight like floods
bursting out dam in one rushing
mass of ruin and loss.
This is what Secretary Houston
meant when, referring particularly to
the farmers, he said they were seek
ing relief through measures some of
which are not practical and others
Of which are suicidal"
1t is a hard thing that to raise their
crops now going TO q market out of
which the bottom is falling the farm
ers had to pay top war prices for
their machinery and supplies and in
ordinate wages for inefficient labor
1t Is a grievous thing that some of
their crops for what 1t cost them,
under sky high production costs, TO
raise them. 1t is a ruinous thing that
other farmers have to sell their crops
at an actual loss. But the fact re-
mains that If there were any way by
which they could hold their crops in
an effort to get prices up to war levels
again the whole mass eventually
would come down with greater
crash than has accompanied the pres
ent fall. But there isn't any such
way. There isn't money enough in
the world, there aren't banking faoili-
ties enough, there aren't Government
resources enough to hold crops bill
ions on billions Of dollars above the
market value when the merciless laws
Of nature are irreslstibly driving them
down.
Similarly It is down, down for
everything that has been excessively
and insufferably high. There Is no
escape, there is no hope Of escape
from the inevitable.

A Game Woman Making a Fight
for Her Good Name.

No appeal recently made to the pub
lie for its support and assistance has
been more unconventional or inter
estlng than the plea put forward last
week by young woman of New Castle,
Pennsylvania, who has asked her
neighbors to be charitable to her in
their judgment Of an ecsapade in
which she recently INDUCED.
The woman is %, wife Of steel
maker and mother Of baby OF .. The
essential facts in the case are that
while in attendance at picnic with
another married woman she met her
companions brother. with whom and
an acquaintance OF his the two
women went for a ride In an automc-
bile. One of the men had been drink
ing and n quarrel arose. The women
left the motor car. Subsequently the
owner Of the automobile was found
dead in the road, with the man who
had introduced the women to him
near by. He was arrested and the
women became involved in the investi-
CATION as witnesses.
The steel maker who Is most intl-
mately concerned IN his wife's be-
havior has accepted her explanation
IN good faith and passed the matter
off as an innocent misfortune. But
others, persons seemingly with less at
stake. have not been as merclful or as
just, MS the case may be. The woman
"was practically ostracized by her ac-
qualntances. and persons she had
known for years refused to speak to
her" according to dispatches from
New Castle.
1t was I'm consequence Of her treat

and associates-1to call them friends

ton in which they stood to ber-that
the victim Of this tragedy made her
appeal, and the response Of the people
Of New Castle to Il seems to have been
at least as satisfactory as might have
been expected. After the appearance
of her plea she attended church, only
