GENERAL DEFENDS
YANKS ON RHINE
Commander Denies Reports U.
S. Soldiers 0emoraIize Ger
many by Spending.

PARIS Nov. 1.-THE doughboys in
the American zone of occupation on
the Rhine are good spenders but they
are not scattering their money about
in a way to demoralize the Germans.
This information came from no
less source than Major Gen. Henry
Allen. commanding the American
army OF occupation.
Deputy Bell. a clerical member Of
the German Reichstag. complained to
that body that the American soldiers
were so free and easy with their
money that the Germans had begun
to suffer morally" Furthermore he
accused the Americans OF disregard
ing German rights in making requisi-
lions.
SOLDIERS WELL OFF.
General Allen was asked about the
German deputy's allegations and he
telegraphed the following reply to
the Paris bureau OF the International
News Service from Coblenz:
THE American soldiers are well
paid. They are especially we'll off
now with the German mark SO low
in exchange value.
The Americans spend their money
generously. but let me point out that
the population Of the American zone
profit by the Americans freedom in
spending. There is more money in
circulation as a result of 1t.
SOLDIERS ARE SAVING,
In spite of their generous spend
ing, the Americans have deposited
more than 12.000.000 marks in Ameri-
can financial institutions. The Amer
lean officers are very careful in max
ing acquisitions.
Every. effort is made to have the
burden Of occupation upon the Ger
mans made as light as possible. Ger
mans OF all classes have expressed
the desire that Americans remain in
the Rhineland as long as any foreign
troops Of occupation are maintained
upon the Rhine.

WE OWN OUR HALL-ALAS!

THE conclusion Of the famous case of
Jar1dycC versus Jaindycc was hardly
more ironica than is nc announcement
that the City HALL is paid for at last.
Readers of "Elcal; House" will recall that
in tho protractrd cause in chancery the
principals got nothing.
Citizens of Philadelphia have, it is
true, their Public Buildings. They have
their enormous pile at the enormous and
preposterous cost Of S25,000,000, and
their attitude is, in the Gilbertian phrase,
decidedly one of modified rapture On
a misty night with clouds steaming about
the lighted clock tower there is kind of
crude picturesqueness to the City Hall.
Artists, including Mr.. Penne!l. have
caught this attribute.
But, in the practice daylight it is an
incubus, 4 traffic barrier and monu-
mental nuisance. such as jeopardizes the
growth Of few cities on earth. Shudder
as we do at the thought of housing our
city offices in a more suitable spot. some
day that drastic step will have 10 be
taken.
Meanwhile. Philadelphians are at least
privileged to turn TO that page in Dickens
describing the sardcnic laughter greeting
the word that payment for prolonged
intrigue and pestircrous delays ard ne
gotiations was ended.

Society of Friends in Pennsylvania, it is
doubtful if any college community in this
country could show, in recent years,
preceptor more graciously fitted to be the
guide and inspiration of youth. He was
bred in the large-minded simplicity and
practical idealism of the Friends, and
under his cloar-eyed guidance the college
intrusted to him was nourished and
guided in u tradition of courageous
liberalism and culture.
, There was much of the Ben Franklin in
his makeup: A keen judge of men, an
acute observer of the ways of the world,
a reverent and profoundly convinced
worshiper of the inner light. His long
and faithful career as a servant of the
common good brings him today to the
quiet country meeting house he knew so
well, and those who knew him will pause
for a moment in remembering tribute.

A WORLD WAR" BLOWS UP

CONSIDERING the cablcd interpreta-
y ton of the rush Of British states
men to Paris the other day, it is unlikely
that many tears will be shed if the pro-
fessional @opcsters engage in vacation.
The Boshevists who were to have been
attacked on cver% front from Baku to
Bombay are now TO be subdued by the
Requirements of sweet peace.
Up goes the Russian blockade in 20
the foods. medicines and trade vanguards
and out, 5nuffed out, goes the hysterical
report of a new world war which the
dipomatists were said to be framing up
in the French capital.
The change Of tune is welcome. Ma
tions that ere not sunk so low that they
deserve bolshevism have no real need to
fear infiItrating Dropa ganda. 1t will be
powerless against the bulwarks of COM
mon sense and common decency. Rus
sian armies engaged in fighting the rest
Of the globe are products of overheated
Imagination.
The equity Of raising the blockade is
manifest. 1t throws lhe obligation for
good behavior directly mon the soviet
government. Should the leaders in
Moscow then be so mad as militantIy to
challenge civilization, the armed reaction
against them would be tremendous, in
spircd by popular convictions of justice
and not by mere sensational hullabaloo
and trumped-up fantastic yarns.

TIE SIMS CHARGES

A FTER q lapse Of foyty-eight hours
since the first publication of Admiral
Sims's letter of indictment leveled against
the bureaucrats of the Navy Department,
most citizens are experiencing a deep
sense of disgust and shame that such
things had to be.
If there was one branch of the govern
mental war machinery which to the lay
man seemed to work smoothly and with
out the customary scandal, that one was
the navy. Yet now that Sims has lifted
the lid. it appears to- have been tainted
with the same old tar of Office politics
and armchair ineficiency.
Admiral Sims's long letter is categori-
cal in its counts, but too vague and gen.
erali2ing concerning personalities. They
must be made specific and brought home
to the individuals directly responsible. 1t
will not do to say that "the Navy De-
partment' did this or did not do that
The gravamen of the offenses is too seri
Jus w dlloN lllS dCSSpldiSC VI q plOauoluS
so sweeping without narrowing the blame
to the persons involved. In this case the
guilt cannot be otherwise than personal.
Therefore, it will be the proper and
logical course for the Senate naval COM
mittee to broaden the scope of its medal
award inve stigation and clear up the
whole unsavory mess without fear of con-
sequences to regulations and records.
Who was the man who told Sims not
to let the British pull the wool over his
eyes and to remember that this country
would just as readily fight them as the
Germans? Let the name be blazoned out
without equivocation or qualification. Il
will go down in history as that of the
prize idiot of the age.

emust find diversion near home at the
days end.
The Delaware avenue waterfront ought
properly to be a place where large part
of the population might go in summer
evenings. The public recreation piers
were tentative experiments. They have
had no marked success because they are
, piers and little else. The bleak old
avenue remains as forbidding as ever, a
sort of barrier between the people and the
lights, the romantic color and the refresh
ing airs Of their river.
Certainly in the general work prelim
mary to the erection of the Camden
bridge much of the character of the CEN
trail Delaware waterfront will be changed
Commerce is most efficient where it is
not ugly. Open spaces and even bits of
grass arc possible in that section unless
we are less expert than the Europeans in
the management and building of cities
and in The business of business.
The Delaware bridge will not only be
a great utility. 1t will be the beginning
of extensive reconstruction in the water
front region. The municipal authorities
might well remember that Delaware

definitely as the Parkway itself. So does
the Schuylkill river section.
Mr.. Moore and his associates in guild
ing the work of the new city which is
rising above the old one have opportll-
mites unequaled anywhere else in the
United States. Architects have the ad-
vantage that comes to painter who
works upon a clean canvas Of large
dimensions.
One may only devoutly hope that they
may make the best of it.
