Won't Be Popular
Tho second remedy will excite little
enthusiasm in the United States. Mr..
Keynes doesn't clearly suggest, as
others have done, that as q compensa-
tion for a remission Of the European
debts the United States should be al
lowed to rewrite the peace conditions,
so as to bring them more into con-
formity with Mr.. Wilson'S original
peace plan. But this is about the
last thing which would appeal to the
United States. It will probably help
Europe in pinch. 1t may remit in
terest on the European debt, or even
scale down the obligations Of some
countries. But it would never think
Of doing so with the intention of re-
modelling Europe to it's own desire
The bitter lesson of the Paris expert
ment will hardly be forgotten within q
generation. What Mr. Keynes ignores
also is that the European Allies have
all received or expect to receive very
large territorial and political con1pen-
sations. The United States has ac-
qnired no territory. Why shouldn't
she territorial acquisitions be stricken
off the balance sheet, if there is to be
true international economic account
ing?

AH nomic Consequences Of the

Howe) has solved the prob
lem OF. making an economic study a
best seller" That is in itself a stroke
of genius. His method shows that the
imagination Of a literary artist may
vitalize even . typical product Of what
Carlyle not inaptly called "the dismal
science"
Mr.. Keynes is the editor Of "The
Economic Journal" of London, and was
the representative Of the British Treas
ury at the peace conference. He was
engaged In drafting the repatriations
section Of the treaty, and threw up
his appointment in disgust at what he
held to be the economic severity and
the political insincerity of the terms
imposed or Germany. He thereupon
determined to set forth to the world
his very pronounced view of the ruin

manner of thought, feeling and ex-
preston. In practice his
ideas were nebulous and incomplete
He had no plan, no scheme, no con-
structive ideas whatever for clothing
with the flesh Of life the command
ments which he had thundered from
the White House. He could have
preached sermon on any Of them
or have addressed stately prayer to
the Almighty for their fulfllment;
but he could not frame their concrete
application to the actual state of
Europe
Mr.. Keynes, who sat with the Coun-
ell Of Four occasionally, contrasts the
Presidents rigidity and inelasticity of
mind with the medium-like sensitive
ness and mental agility of Lloyd
George, master Of opportunist poll
tics. and the blas@ and cynical clarity
Of Clemenceau. For these two Mr.. Will
son was no match in the arts of init
mate and secret diplomacy. He went to
Paris to impose peace Of justice, or
conciliation, based OH his fourteen
points. He came away, Mr.. Keynes
holds, with a peace which denied the
fourteen points in letter and spirit.
Keynes's point Of view is that Of an
economist-pacifst He is an interna-
tionalist, an anti-nationalst. He want
ed to see q peace made which would
restore, as far as possible, Europe's
pre-war economic status. He had q
tender spot in his heart for Germany,
as the key factor in the old European
economic situation. He seems also to
be something of parlor Socialist, akin
in his political ideas to DR.. Wilhelm
Muhlon.
Calls It Ruthless
These predictions, which naturally
found little sympathy at Paris, must
be taken into account in judging the
case he makes against tho peace. He
maintains that it is a Carthaginian
peace, ruthless toward the conquered
and dishonoring tho victors. He also
holds that the treaty violated tho as
surances given to Germany in the ne
gotiations which preceded the armi
stce.
But this contention rests on the as
sumption that the peace forecast by
the fourteen points and President
Wilson's utterances was to be peace
of reconciliation and renunciation. 1t
was to be a peace of justice. But JUS
tice implies punishment Of the guilty.
1t may be argued, plausibly enough,
that the treaty did not conform to the
preconceptions Of President Wilson.
But those preconceptions were person
al. They were not shared by the Amer
lean people any more than they were
shared by our European allies. The
economist-pacifst Interpretation Of the
fourteen points had to yield. at Paris
to the demand that Germany should
be made to atone for her sins by an
adequate penalty.
Indemnity Demanded
The greater part Of the book is ds-
voted to o demonstration that the in
demnity assessed against Germany is
exDrbitant and cannot be recovered in
goods, labor and money. This is not
new thesis or a new discovery. In
speech in the Senate on August 20, 1919,
Mr. Knox set forth the substance Of
Mr.. Keynes's argument. He said, '"The
treaty, az it stands, cannot be en-
forced" tho chief reason being that
the financial indemnlties couldn't be
collected. 1t is, in fact, simple mat

people on both sides of the Atlantic
will want to read the Keynes book, not
for it's exposition Of the unenforce-
ability Of the reparations provisions
Of the treaty, but for its singularly
trenchant estimate-in the way Of
prologue of President Wilson's
achievements as the supposed guiding
spirit Of the peace conference.
This chapter is tour de force. 1t
has virility, sparkle and sardonic humor.

conclusions or not, he cannot escape
the feeling that here is a portrait

Of great historical episode which the
future cannot ignore.
Mr.. Keynes writes of the President In
a spirit of disillusionment. But he
seems to have sensed the chief intel
lectual deficiencies which led to Mr..
Wilson's tragic failure at Paris. The
authors dissection Of the Presidents
character as our chief plenipotentiary
already has been widely reproduced in
this country. 1t presents the head Of

ocala, Fla, Oct. 25.-L. S. Light
OF Marion county give a vivid mus
lration OF how the present freight
rates Will affect the Florida truck and
fruit grower. Mr.. Light says:
Many newspapers are showing
now little the increase of freight rates
will affect the general welfare Of
the people.
Here is a statement Of how it will
ahect the shipper of fruits and yeget-
aples in this state and l honestly be
ileve the vegetable grower should
know what he is up against before he
begins planting.
The State Railroad Commission
wrote me saying that the rates on
oranges, carload lots, from Orlando
to New York in 1916 was Gle per box,
while the present rate, carload lots.
from same point to like point, was
Sl'O2 per box, an increase of 41c per
pox' on vegetables from Orlando to
New York, carload lots in 1916, per
standard crate, was 44c per box in
1916, now it is 74c, an increase of
3Oc per crate.
The rate from Marion county may
DC a cent or two less per crate. Or
lando gives fair average of the
whole state.
This mans an increase of about
S12O per car, and if Florida will ship
like quantity of fruit and vegetables
as was shipped last year 1t will mean
an additional freight bill of about So
100000 in one year.
Here is an illustration Of how it
will hurt the farmer:
Mr.. Lester Tinker, of Fairfield,
Fla, last year shipped 1000 1OO-lb.

on crate of cabbages over 1915 will

more than in 1915. Two dollars and

NEW YORK, Jan. 5.-More than 5000 immigrants were clamoring at the gates of New York for admission into the United States. Ellis Island is congested and many hundreds of the incoming passengers are being detained on board steamships for ex- animation.

 Police and coast guards are on duty at the piers and the Ellis Island ferry entrance to hold in check the crowds which gather at the gates daily
 Several attempts have been made by friends and relatives of the de- tained passengers to storm the piers in an effort to reach the ships.

 The greater number of the immig rants being detained are Italians, it was stated. Several hundred Greek passengers are also held.
