Rumania and Hungary.
Minister Bibesco Replies to State
ments by Count Teleki.

To THE New YORK HERALD: You pub
lished on Friday an account of a lecture
given by Count Teleki. former Premier
OF Hungary, at the Institute of Politics
at williams College, dealing with the
problems of contemporary Hungary.
should be grateful If you would present
to your readers the following remarks
that sum UP the Rumanian side of the
controversy In regard to the territorial
consequences OF the Treaty OF Trianon.
The Magyar statesman suggests an
American analogy to the eurtailment
of Hungarian territory by the peace OF
Trianon. Such analogies may be help
fuI in making clear to Americans sit
uations that are remote both geograph-
ically and emotionally. but the particu-
lar parallel drawn by Count Teleki is
entirely unfair and misleading. He COM
pares the loss of Pennsylvania and
Slovakia TO a fictitious breakup of the
United States, under which the sections
annexed by a foreign conqueror would
be separated from the remainder of the
country by permanent and unsurmount-
able economic barriers.
principal reasons: First, the United
States is inhabited by an overwhelm-
ingly--for the purposes of this very
parallel absolutely-homogene people.
springing from one race, speaking one
language, processing allegiance TO one
national idea. Therefore, detaching
PENNSYLVANIA or Vermont or Ohio from
the American body polite would be
something fundamentally different from
detaching Transylvania from Hungary
Pennsylvanians and Ohioans are Amer
leans. Transylvanians. at least the large
majority OF them. are not Magyars but
Rumanians.
Secondly. Count Teleki's assumption
that the political boundaries established
by the Treaty Of Trianon constitute an
unsurmountable and permanent barrier
to commercial intercourse Is absolutely
arbitrary. Economic cooperation with
Hungary is desired by the succession
States II will be in the long run indis-
pensable for both sides. The main OBJ
stacie to such cooperation Is just the
attitude of the present Hungarian Gov
ernment, and generally of the Magyar
ruling class Instead of applying every
energy to economic reconstruction Off
cial Hungary is engaged in squabbles
about the succession to the throne and
In more or less fantastic planI to re-
store the old order by means OF MILL
tary adventure. The first step 10 the
economic rebuilding OF Hungary is the
abandonment of rcstorationist and irre-
dentist activities, of schemes against the
safety OF her neighbors. BY instilling
confidence into tho States OF the Little
Entente Hungary will put an end to
her economic isolation.
Count Teleki's address on the whole
is typical Of the new method OF Magyar
propaganda. which, recognizing the fall
ure of it's sentimental appeals. now tries

higher than in 1915. But the average
wage, after the readjustment TO the
new schedule on August 80, will still
be more than so per cent. above the
1915 level. These figures are i'm
Iortant because they show that al
though the number of steel employees
has declined from 267,O00 last year
to 125,000 now, undue advantage has
rot been taken of unemployment to

The Credit Goes to Mellon.

The attempt by Chairman WHITE
OF the Democratic National Commit
tee to make political capital out of
President HARDING's effort to bring
about economy in the Government to
lower Federal taxes should not go
unrebuked.
Chairman WHITE asserts that the
Administrations decision to cut down
expenses and lop off some OF the old
taxes constitutes direct reputation
OF the recommendation by Secretary
OF the Treasury MELLON.
He declares that instead of adopt
ing the additional taxes suggested by
Mr.. MELLON to meet the large Gov
ernment expenditures the Admins
tration is supporting the Fordney
plan Of reducing Government ex-
penses, a scheme which the Demo
cratic chairman AYERS will result only
in paper savings"
There has been no reputation Of
Secretary MELLON. There has been
complete approval and adoption of
his suggestions for economy stated
forcibly on a number of occasions,
notably in his letter to the Ways and
Means Committee last April, when
he showed expenditures for 1922
would be at least four billions. In
that communication Secretary MEL
Ion wrote.
"The nation cannot continue to
spend at this shocking rate.
"The country is staggering under
the existing burden OF taxation and
debt and clamoring for gradual re-
lief from the war taxation.
''Reappropriations of unexpended
balances, revolving fund appropria-
tions and appropriations of receipts
and other indefinite authorizations of
expenditure have in the past been re-
sponsibe for hundreds of millions of
dollars Of actual cash outgo.
Substantial cuts in current expen-
ditures offer the only hope OF enec-
tive relief from the tax burden.
"The only way to escape these ad-
ditional internal taxes, to an aggre-
gate amount of between s250,0o0,0oo
and $780, 600, 900, will be to make i'm
mediate cuts in that amount in cur
rent expenditures"
Secretary MELLON laid down the al
ternatives, one to increase taxes, the
other to decrease expenditures. 1t
was Secretary MELONS letter last
April that originally awakened Con-
gress to the real state of the Govern
ment's financial condition. He also
directed attention to the cost Of reap
preparation and indefinite authoriza-
tions, which reached billion dollars
in the fiscal year 1921. The Ways
and Means Committee at the Admin
istration's behest has adopted the
very emphatic suggestion of Secre-
tary MELLON that expenditures be re-
duced. Reappropriations also are to
be checked.
The adoption of a programme to
cut taxes and save from S500,000,000
to 100000 was an imperative
necessity. If obstructive partisan
ship is properly suppressed, the pro-
gramme will result in actual economy
and not merely in paper savings. As
sertions to the contrary and the false
statement that Secretary MELLON has
been repudiated as financial adviser
to the Administration are worse than
the sheerest political nonsense. They
are menace to the welfare of the
counfry

Steel Traps.
Catskill Sets an Example OF Avoid.
Ing Unnecessary Cruelty.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: Thanks
are due to tho writer OF the letter
against tho setting OF steel traps.
Other traps quite as efIlcacious and
without the serious drawbacks OF the
steel trap can be had, and are in fact
used by many farmers who are un-
willing 70 incur the risk OF the torture
OF their domestic animals.
Some time ago a law was passed in this
village forbiddng the setting OF steel traps
within the corporate limits, to the great
satisfaction OF all members of the HUI
name Society. II is not too much to
hope that It may soon become a state
law, even q United States law.
