PROPHETS TOE

THE PROPHET of the Dawn of the New Day in New Mexico has
once more stubbed his toe in the false dawn that exists, pending
= sun-up. He has hit the same toe ON the same stump a number OF
times, with varying degrees of violence. The toe, naturally, is get
ting sore. Judgment is necessary in treating toesj even those Of a
prophet just as much as in running . newspaper.
The Albuquerque Journal says today;
"The world do move A Santa Fe dispatch announces
thdt the Chino Copper company has made public its report
for the quarter ending September 3d. 1t is useless to spec
udate concerning the motive for a change OF policy from
that of the utmost secrecy possible, to a public announce
ment of tho facts"
There is considerably more of the above in the prophet Gus
tomary line of endeavor at dawn raising, or when engaged in, assail-
ing his pet windmill. There is no need TO quote more of IT here, since
the people became quite familiar with it during the late unpleasant
ness, terminating on November Z, when the Prophet suffered a dis
appointment, not to say a jolt.
p II is enough to say at this time that some intelligent person con
nected with the Prophets organization should lead him gently to the
Giles Of the Albuquerque Morning Journal, of a comparatively recent
period, when the journal maintained at Santa Fe a correspondent
whose duty was to secure industrial and other news, and not to chase
political fiction. The information there to be obtained might save
further indignities TO the Prophets toe. q.
These files, for instance, would reveal to the champion of Cover
nor Octayiano A. Larrazoo, political purity and a square deal for the
people, that the Chino Copper company has been making and giving
out for publication quarterly reports of the kind referred 30 in to-
days journal, giving statements of output, etc, for a period of sew
eral years last past These reports have always been available for
those seeking industrial facts, and their existence and the public
knowledge of them have frequently proven embarrassing TO persons
seeking to put over industrial fiction and political bunk.

GOOD ADVICE FOR MEN AND NATIONS

IN ANOTHER cofrmn today we are publishing a portion Of the
conclusions" Of the international financial conference, dealing
with public finance. It contains the clearest statement of world
financial conditions that has been made. II seems to Us 10 propose
the soundest and most sensible remedies for the wrong conditions in
Q troubled world that we have seen. These remedies apply with al
most equal. force to the affairs of nations and Of meu, in America as
well as in Europe. Therefore we believe the section of the report
given is well worth your reading.
In explanation, this report was prepared by the international
financial conference at Brussels, which adjourned on October 8. for
consideration by the assembly Of the league Of nations during the
meeting now IN progress in Geneva. While fragmentary reports have
appeared in the press reports, this is, so far as we know, the first
complete publication Of the commissions conclusions. II has been
issued for general ~d%rfbu0n by a New York banking house.
Other sections 81 the commissions conclusions, those dealing
with 'epgtpey and exchange, international trade and inter
national credits, are more technical but are deeply interesting. I'm
fortunately their length feFbids their publication in this newspaper.
The men who form this commission comprise many Of the leading
financial experts aad statesmen of European and other countries. 1t
is interesting ard significant 10 note how strongly they dwell upon
the necessity of the nations to practice thrift, increase production and
limit expenditures to available income.

stated by W. G. MeFadden, secretary of the North Dakota Bankers
association, at a meeting Of farm loan investors in Milwaukee last
Saturday, as follows;
"The passage of the initiated laws cutaning the amount of funds
to be controlled by the Bank of North Dakota has done more to rein
state in the minds of the investing public a confidence in farm mort
cages than anything else which has been done by the voters Of the

CONCLUSIONS OF THE INTERNATIONAL
FINANCIAL CONFERENCE UPON
PUBLIC FINANCE
From the complete report made for use Of the assembly Of the
league Of nations now in session at Geneva, Published and dis
hibuted in America by the Liberty National bank, New York.


Thirty-nlne nations have In turn
placed before the international finun-
cial conference a statement ot their
financial position. The nomination
trcme gravity Of the general situation
of public finance throughout the
world. and particularly in Europe.
Their import may be summed un
in the statement that three out OF
every four OF the countries represent
cd Mt this conference, and eleven out
Of twelve Of the European countries,
anticipate a budget deficit in the
present year. Public opinion is large
ly responsible for this situation.
\ The close connection between these
budget deficits and the cost OF living,
which IL causing such suffering n
unrest throughout he world, In FAR
from being grasped. Nearly every
government 10 being pressed TO incur
fresh expenditure; largely on palha-
tivcs which aggravnte the very evils
against which they are directed.
The first step II to bring public
opinion in every country to realize
the essential facts Of the situation ana

Ing public finances un u sound basis
as . preliminary to the execution Of
thoso social reforms which the world
demands.
Increase of Production
Public attention should be espec-
Tally drawn to the fact that the res
ductitn OF prices and the restoration
OF prosperity Is dependent ON the In
crease OF production. and thut the
contin ual exceas Of government cx-
%pendit1re over revenue represented
by budget deficits Is one OF tho most
'HerlouH obstacles TO such Increase or
production, AS II v sooner or later
involve the following consequenceh;E
(a) Further initiation OF credit and

(b) 4 further depreciation In the
purchasing power Of the domestic
currency, and IA stlll greater ln8tabii.

(c) a further rise In prices n In

slippery path which leads to general

Restriction OF Expenditure
II Is therefore Imperative that
every government should. as The first
social and financial reform, on which
all others depend.-
(a) Restrict It's ordinary recurropt
expenditure. Including the service OF

covered by It's ordinary revenue.
Cb) Higidly reduce all expenditure

be United to the lowest possible
figure compatible with national So
curity, and that the League OF Nations
should be Invited TO consider, as soc
ms possible, proposals to this end"
The statements presented tc the eon-
1errncc show that, on an average,
some 9 percent of the national eN-
pcnditude is stih being devoted to tho
maintenance of armnments and the
preparations FOR war.
The conference desires to affirm
with the utmost cmpnasis that the
world cannot afford this expenditure.
Only by a frank policy OF mutual CO.

regain their old prosperity, and In
