Fiat Money.

From the Topeka Capital.
Wages are ten times as high in
Germany as before the war, and in
some trades fifteen times. The ex-
PLANTATION is that the government has
deluged the country with paper
money. -,
or course. the paper money is re-
ceiVable in taxes and is legal tender
consequently. the people ought to be
entirely happy and contented. They
have obtained at last what the paper
money philosophers have always
maintained is the one great boon, the
philosophers stone-money. oodles of
money issued by the government
without cost.
The truth is that the German peo-
pie are far from contented. They
receive unheard-of wages, and yet
are poorer than before. Their money
wages somehow will not buy any
more goods than 1t will buy labor.
labor gets less goods than before.
In 1896 William Jennings Bryan
added to his silver plank an ire
deemabie paper money plank. so as
TO make sure thing of abundant
money. But the money power. sup
ported bs the great red dragon. de-
feated the scheme, with the aid of
Mark Hanna. In his platform Bryan
declared for this sort of money
without the aid or consent OF any
other nation on EARTH" which was
taken to be a fine patriotic sentiment.
1t showed how independent William
jennings was and how 100 per cent
American. 1t made quite a popular
appeal.
The trouble with Germany's money
is that it also is without the aid or
consent of any other nation on
EARTH" That is, il is discounted in
exchange. SO that it has no pur-
chasing power.

iterated HIS previous declaration that
there should be a lifting instead Of

He indicated his belief that objec-

out providing any substitutes, not
withstanding President Harding's dec
laration In his address to congress
that relief from tar burdens could
come for the present only through Q
readjustment Of taxes and that the
revenue from internal taxation must
be kept up to level Of at least s4,-i

oivss Two Reasons.
There is not going to be any sales

sons. First, Q sales tar under the
American form Of government cannot
be justified save as q war or emer-
gency measure, and, second, for the
reason that the country needs q lift,

Representative Mondell declared,
that the floating debt must be cousid-I

TWO RESERVATIONS
 TO PEACE TREATIES

Washington, Sept. 23.-The treaties of peace negotiated by the administra- ton with Germany, Austria and Hun bary were approved today by the Sen ate Foreign Relations Committee but with two reservations.
 One reservation, similar to Lodge reservation to the treaty of yer sailles. would require an act Of Con gress prior to representation on or participation in any foreign agencies or commission by an American rep resentative whose nomination would have to be confirmed by the Senate. The other is designed to protect the property rights of American citizens, as well as of the American govern ment in the three former enemy .coun- tries.
 Adoption of the two reservations brought from the White House the statement that while President Hard ing had not seen their text, he favor ed the principles involved and no objection would be raised.
 Senator Borah, Republican of Idaho n leader of the "irreconcilables' in the treaty of Versailles ratification hght, alone of the Foreign Relations Com mittec members stod not against the recommendation that the three trea- ties be ratified with the proposed res eryations. Democratic committee mem hers toned with the other Republl- cans in ordering the pactS reported favorahly to the Senate, where they were presented late today by Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, Republican leader, and committee chairman.
 The treaties will be called before the Senate tomorrow when he plans to make a preferential motion for their discussion ahead of all other bus ness IL is proposed, however to give right of way next week to the tax bill and to have night Sessiohs beg inning probably next Tuesday, m an effort to hasten ratification.

ficials of the Arkansas Farm Bureau Federation and of the Arkansas Cot ton Growers Cooperative Association wish to correct an impression that seems to prevail in some quarters that the two organizations are combating the Arkansas Farmers Union.
 Nothing could be luther from the truth" said Mir Brown. There is plenty of room for all three organiza- tions. The Farmers Union has done some fine work in the past and every one hopes that it will continue. We hope that the three organizations Will work in cooperation.
 There is no reason why this should not be done In Oklahoma, the Farm CTS Union rendered invaluable as sisfance in organizing the Oklahoma Cotton Growers Association, on or ganiZation exactly similar to the Ar LansaS Cotton Growers Association. The same thing was true of Texas. The president of the Texas Farmers I,nion k q director of the Texas Farm Bureau Cotton Association.
