ENGLAND Wants to
Exchange Editors
With This Country
Niscount Burnham, Owner
of London ''Telegraph,' -
Believes ItWould Improve
Relations of Both Nations

TORONTO, Aug 12.-Viscount Burn
ham, proprietor of "The London Daily
Telegraph" announced to-day that an
exchange of newspaper editors be-
tween the United States and England
and among England, Canada, Aus
tralia and the various parts Of the
British Empire, had been discussed at
the Imperial Press Conference now in
session here. He suggested that an
Anglo American exchange of editors
would promote better international
understanding. Viscount Burnham is
chairman of the conference.
He said he would be glad to carry
out the plan so far as his paper is
concerned, and that Sir Campbell
Stuart, editor of "The London Times"
had also approved it.
THE topic of the exchange Of editors
between England and the United
States is not wholly new" Viscount
Burnham said, "but | have become
more interested in it since my visit to
this country. The principle has al
ready been approved by a number of
British newspapers, and resolutions
furthering it have been passed.
Needs Better Understanding
"The necessity for a clearer under
standing IN newspaper offices on both
sides of the Atlantic of the value to
getting more apparent. 1t may be that
some perfectly inconsequential person
may make some offensive remarks
which should be ignored by people &C
quainted with the situation. The cables
carry the news, and it is handled some
times in a way which does not indicate
its relative Importance
Il have d. sincere friendship for the
American people, and l am not fright
ened when | read that the Hon. So
and-So in Congress has been saying Of
fensive things about England.
"lf British and Americans editors
were able to place the proper empha-
sis on this type of news misunder-
standings between peoples would be-
come less likely. | am little disap-
pointed myself with the way that
British news is handled in the Cana
dian press. | find that personal values
are not properly gagged. | note. for
instance, that great prominence has
been given recently to some British
labor leaders who do not really COM
mand attention. If the principle of ex-
change of editors between the United
St1tCc duu 4IHSioIU 10 SOOu, IL Is DeCCel
still Ito promote such an exchange be-
tween various parts of the empire.
Willing to Try Scheme
"Sir Campbell Stuart, of THE
Times and l would be willing to carry
this movement through as far as oul
own papers are concerned The periot
of exchange should be at least sis
months, probably year. In each case
the editor exchanged should actually
be on the staff of the paper to which
he is accredited; otherwise he woule
be fifth wheel. He should be guaran
teed salary not less than the stand
ard salary of competent newspaper
man.
"The general trend these days is no
| to trust sentimental speeches among
nations, but better understanding.
believe that this exchange of editor
will promote that better understand
| ing"

Paper Shortage Seen
If Coal Priority Lasts
Commerce Commission Told
That Many Publications Are
Facing Shutdown

Many newspapers will have to sus-
pend publication. because production
and shipment of print paper must
cease, unless the Interstate Commerce
Commission modifies its priority orders
in al1ocating coal and wood cars, Philip
T. Dodge, president of the Internation-
al Paper Company, declared here yes
terday.
In letter appealing to the commits
sion for consideration of paper mills
needs for rail equipment to deliver
their fuel and pulp wood. Mr.. Dodge
said that more than 400 newspapers Of
the United States directly dependent
on the International Paper Company
for their paper stock now are Giving
from hand to mouth"
There is no accumulation of paper"
Mr.. Dodge said. "The newspapers are
using paper daily as they receive it.
There is no immediate shortage or
pulp wood for our supplies. We have
stocks for several months ahead piled
up along railroads with men waiting
to load it into cars. Rolling stock is
all that is needed to get it to the mills.
Coal cars must be allocated to US
to bring us fuel to run the mills. The
plants at Berlin and Franklin, N. H.,
Niagara Falls, Piercefeld and Brown
vile, N. Y, Bellows Falls and Wilder,
VT. and Orono, Me-, will have to shut
down if cars are not sent US soon"

POnzi Case Recalls
Many Other Bubbles

Developments in the Ponzi case
serve to recall many financial bubbles
of a spectacular nature which have
claimed places in history.
Ventures that offer a speedy acquisi-
ton of riches. while long a weakness
of individuals, have sometimes tempted
governments away from the policy of
conservative investment. There are
two such spectacular deviations in his
tory, the British South Sea Company
bubble and the French Mississippi
Company affair. Both had equally dis
astrous results.
Some 200 years ago the British and
French governments were victims of
these hasty wealth schemes, when they
undertook to eliminate their unfunded
national debts by backing ventures
with companies who were to exchange
their stock for the outstanding unfund-
ed government debt, in consideration
of exclusive trade rights in certain
parts of the world.
During the ten years that the South
Sea proposition fourished upward of
$60,000,000 worth of government obi
cations were turned over to the COM
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1920-08-13

pany. At one time the concern had a
capital of nearly $250,0O0,0OO and it's
stock was forced up 1850 per cent.
Nearly every one in Great Britain in
vested in this venture and when the
crash came thousands of families were
ruined.
About the same time as the South
Sea affair, John Law, Scotsman, in
duced the French government to try
similar plan of wiping out its ma
tional debt. All France was in an orgy
OF speculation and the stock in the
Mississippi company increased twenty
than did the collapse of the South Sea
bubble and vast numbers Of people in
France were ruined
Speculation in blue sky propositions
Is an old and long story with little
variation. During tine nineteenth CEN
fury schemes of "a lot for a little"
were numerous in different parts of
Europe. A Lord Chief Justice of Eng
land estimated that from 1891 to 1897
the British public had lost 29,000,0o0
pounds by venture of this sort
In recent years in America the most
spectacular -richquick" plan was
operated by the Franklin-Miller Syndi-
cate, IN which the notorious 1920 per
~~.'e "A'Aic' was lHVOIveQ.
Mrs. Cassie l.. Chadwick, of Cleve-
land, was said to have obtained s2,oO0,-
600 by operations which she carried on
IN Ohio css:cs. She was arrested in
1904. Her method consisted of borrow
ing money from men of financial stand
ing on supposedly valuable securities
which later proved worthless.
Nine. Therese Humbert, French
woman, followed similar scheme in
her own country over a period of sew
eral years prior to 1903. She was
credited with obtaining millions, and
she and her husband were alleged to
have spent S1O,ooO,0Oo. They were ar
rested in Madrid and taken back to
France, where they we're sentenced to
prison.

New York Central
Baked i'm RAISING
Passenger Rates
Public Service Board Tells
Paulding No Schedules
May Be Filed Prior to
Public Hearing Next Week

c. P. Pauldlng, representing the New
York Central and other railroads in the
state, appeared yesterday at Albany
before the Public Service Commission
of the Second District of New York and
asked permission to file a schedule of
increased lntrastate passenger rates to
be effective August. 2s, as authorized
by the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion.
The commission notified Mr.. Pauld-
ing that it would give a public hearing
on the petition next Tuesday, accord
ing to dispatches received from AL
bany last night. This is the date pre-
vlously set for a hearing on the roads
petition for increased interstate freight
rates.
1t was said at the office of the com
mission yesterday that no request of
the roads for increased freight or pas
senger rates had been refused, but that
the commission, in ruling that no in
creases IN the state will be permitted
until hearing on the subject has been
held, was simply following the usual
course of procedure.
When he appeared before the COM
) 10 Auoy N1I TduiQlnR, ac-
cording to Albany dispatches. asserted
that the lawful passenger rates on
some railroads will be SO cents a mile
and on others 3 cents, and unless all
companies were permitted to charge
the $50 cent rate authorized by the
Interstate Commerce Commission there
would be discrimination. Mr.. Pauldiny
further told the commission that the
railroads did not expect to go into tho
reasonableness of the new rates.
Railroad officials in New York yes.
terday were unanimous in the opjnior
that the ruling of the Public Service
Commission will have serious eFec,
upon all roads in the state. Officials
said that the action of the commission
would prove embarrassing to the Inter
state Commerce Commission.
1t was said yesterday at the Offices
of the New York Central that in view
of the fact that SO per cent of the
roads business is within New York
State, this road will be most seriously
affected
E. T. Campbell, freight traffic man
ager of the Erie Railroad, said that
the commissions action is certain to
result in confusion and delay.
