'morally bound to make reparation.
so far rs may be possible" were made
public today at the State Department.
Describing the German communica
ton as an "uneQuivocal expression"
OF the recognition of that obligation.
the American reply expresses the hope
that renewed negotiations which Gcr
many says it plans to initiate may
read to prompt settlement which will
at the same time satisfy the just
claims Of the allies and permit Ger
many hopefully to renew its produc.
ductive activities.
SUGGEST INTERNATIONAL LOAN
Included in the German commune; :,
ton is Il suggestion that the only so
lution of the repurations problems. Is
Pm international loan IN favor Of
which the allied and associated powers
would waive tho general mortgage on
German assets created by the treaty OF
versailles. In this connection the Ger
man government says 1t would not
be unwilling to assume the obligation
of the interest and the amortization
OF the allied and associated powers
within lhe limit OF her capacity"
Germany invites the examination
"by unbiased experts Of it's own abil
ity to make payment" and says she
stands ready to meet any PROPOSAL
ton OF the economic and financial
problems OF Europe.
The American reply makes no ref
ercncc either. to the proposed consol
idn'ion OF allied debts as a German
obligation or tho suggestion for the
determination by unbiased experts OF
the ability of Germany to pay.
READY TO OTEER GOOD OFFICES
Another consideration with regard
to PREPARATION presented by Germany
is that Of the rehabilitation of dcva.
Iated regions. The German govern.
ment says 1t stands ready to offer to
Franc" good Offices and resources in
whatever form Is acceptable. IT as

but that :hcsc offers nave not bcci,
accepted.
Germany declares that there exists
IN France only limited degree OF
concern for the rehabilitation of the
devastated regions. because advance
'ndemnitieS have been given to for.
mer occupants OF the soil who have
settled In other parts OF France. and
the work Of clearing the war areas
has been undertaken by influential
groups of promoters, who are making
no effort to expedite the performance
Of their contracts.

Mental Changes in Japan.
(Tokio Japan Times. ]

(Tokio Japan Times.)
 The world of thought in Japan today is in very critical condition according many eminent Japanese students of sociology The Japanese mind is in period of transition and the transition is sicky There s genius guiding star that lead the people out of their doubts and steer them into safe mental haven The efforts being made by the police ancestral shrines pay regard the faith of Old Japan proofs that the authorities have begun the ugly side of this unsettled state of thought
 Dr. Ohshma, a well known Japanese student, the state of thoughts among the in the cities to those prevailing in the minds of the French people before the Revolution. New thoughts have come in and the old theories regarded as n- tenable. But these new thoughts little under stood and results, instead of order harmony in the mental world, there is deal confusion and chaos" Dr. Ohshma adds that passion and impulse ruled the Japanese more than at the present time
 "The mental world of Japan today may be com pared to stormy sea- says Prof. Shiro Kawada of the Kyoto Imperial University This of society well of individuals. There is diminution in the patriotism of the people, but there is grave dis content, and the sullen muterngs to be everywhere heard certainly not good portens. The press plays every day lurid stories of riotous living by hitherto respected persons. scandals in official and municipal matters, corruption in trade and This is killing the respect of the younger genera tions for established authority undermining faith in the traditions and beliefs of old
 Dr. Kawada also says that the trend in the economic phase of Japanese life is gradually leading to breakup of the family system. The present economic system. he notes, is based indvidualism while the family system is the antthesis of in- dividualism.

As far as American and Japanese differences are concerned they be easily adjusted if Japan will but make it plain that she does seek to take contiguous Asiatc territory from China and Siberia to close the open door for which Americans have been contending from the beginning. There will be no objection on the part of Americans the expan- sion to the furthermost of Japanese trade on the Asiatc mainland if Japan will refrain from attempt ing standardization and trying obsruet other peo pes from expanding their trade relations in the same territory. Let Japan follow the advice of those wise statesmen Of her own country who urging their government to to the conference with clean hands and all their cards the tabe-those who advise Japan to her soldiers from Shantung Siberia and elsewhere that they are not wanted and to get out of the governing business at those points If Japan would do that she would never have cause to fear with the United States

States Massachusetts New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Connecticut increased from 5S,0O0 to 9l000 and the increased size and carrying capacity of the new trucks are into account it is estimated that the carrying capacity has been more than doubled in that period The railroad managers esti- nate that than 60 cent of the 9100O trucks used in competition with railroads rather than as complement to them
 similar condition obtains in other sections of the country to a greater less extent. Everywhere motor trucks carrying freight such as that which once carried wholly by railroads
 If this condition is developing in, sections of the country where there is network of railroads with highly trained freight and passenger organizations lit suggests the building of automobile roads in those sections of the country where there no, or wholly inadequate railroads. The automobile road should be particularly adaptable to Alaska traffic where tonnage is small where would be profit able to build railroads and maintain railroad or ganizations.

Full Equivalent Imperative.
Cincinnati Enquirer ]

Cincinnati Enqurer)
 The laborer must be worthy of his hire or the employer is wronged. The worker must deliver full equivalent for his wage he is honest There is an implied moral contract between employer and laborer that each will do his duty.
 Production in any line of industry largely is af- fected by the slackers in fields of labor upon ade quate production is based the universal prosperity
 The worker who does only that which he has to do Is cheating himself well wronging his em- poyer What he should do Is pay in work the full equivaient of his wage Where that wage is in full accord with the demands of economic justice an ap- proximatey perfect industrial condition obtains.
 Sometimes employers fail to or appreciate marked loyalty, zeal and actual service the part of an employee. But that is the exception The employer who is well served seldom unaware of the fact Likewise he seldom is the fact that he is not being well served He is entitled to what he for just the aborer entitled to compen- saton for the labor he sells.
 Men who watch the clock for quitting time'' have not the right industrial spirit. All employers desire the honest industry for which honest dollars are paid.

HAS INTERESTING STORY
Italian Girl Arrived Here Last Week
After Many Trying Experiences

Miss Maria Denoni. Is a dark eyed.
petite Italian girl, apparently In the
early twentIes whose arrivel dn Crys-
tai Falls last week after many and
varied experiences running back since
before Italy entered the war makes
an interesting story. She came here
at the request OF her lover Dominica
Palma. young man who preceded
her to the land OF the free by about a
year and whose love for the dark eyed
maiden had not cooled. although his
Ifiancee was held in Germany for four
years of the war while he was in the
ranks OF King Emmanuel.
Maria left Venice. Italy on the 2lst
day OF February. alone and ticketed TO
Crystal Falls. She was ~ days on
the ocean and was held Is days in
quarantine before being able TO land.
After landing she was held a long
time at Glouchester, n. j., awaiting
assurance that she would be taken
care of by relatives and not become a
burden on the country 70 which she
was immigrating; also 10 assure the
authorities that she was coming 10
this country on legitimate errand
Maria tells hard story OF her
treatment while in Glouchester. She
was compelled 10 sleep on the floor
with but one blanket over her There
were three or four hundred other i'm
migrants held along with her and the
plight of these people was pittiable.
The food was very bad. so bad that
Maria says she could hardly eat il.

this country her correspondents were

the belief that something should be
done To organize a county alliance to
be made up OF all classes OF men
from all parts OF the county for the
purpose OF promoting the interest OF
all classes and getting a better un-
derstanding between the employer
and the employed.
Mr.. Byers. upon being called upon
for his opinion. made a splendid
speech. advocating such an organiza-

would speak right out in meeting,

ton but It's delivery was delayed for
over a week during which time the
distracted girl was In a precarious
plight, not knowing what minute she
might be put upon boat and shipped
back 10 Italy.
But. Maria had a pre-immigration
experience that rivals the one coming
TO America. She was one OF party
OF Italian girls that was in Germany
before the war started and on it's
breaking out she was held by the Ger
mans during the entire period OF hos
tilities.
She was at Dusseldorf where she
was employed at various work. She
says that the people OF Germany did
mt experience near as much hunger
or privation during the war as they
did after the armistice was signed.
Maria left Dusseldorf a few weeks
after the signing OF the armistice SO
she knows but little OF the conditions
there now.
She went from Dusseldorf to Venice
but didn't pass through the devastated
region OF Italy. She says that the tt
allan people are busy but living IS
very high and there is much privation.
