U. S. OF EUROPE

While speaking in Boston, June II,
1925. Lafayette gave this toast: ITO
the 18th June, 1925. 1t shall see the
formation OF the United States of
Europe"
This at the time required no
greater stretch of the Imagination
than was needed in 1862 to foresee
Massachusetts, and South Carolina
contented members of the same ma
tlonal government. 1t does, however
strain the power of foresight to see
in the immediate future, possibility
of Germany and France members of
d United States of Europe. But this
is not outside the realm of POSSIBLE
Sity.
: For one thing the war has given
wider vision to the common people of
those countries, accustomed to think
within restricted limits. Revival of
business will cause the frontier
regulations to chafe. Relief will be
sought. For generations they have
thought Of success as consisting in
taking something away from
neighbor and holding it. They are
now forced to consider their relations

possibilities to those who cooperate
in peaceful extension of trade.
Another very Important fact which
is now being so illuminated that all
must see it, is the actual interde-
pendence of Europe. How to make
Germany bear her share of the bur-
. den she caused to be piled on the
backs Of Europe is problem in
which all find they have share. In
deed it is found by experience i'm
possible to exact the reparation from
Germany to which the allies are en-
titled. so closely together are the af-
fairs Of Europe knitted. In the light
Of all that has developed one need
not be thought over sanguine who
believes if q United States of Eu-
rope might be established and main
tanned over period of even a few
years. secession there would be as
strenuousIy opposed as in this coun-
try in 1861.

THE MONEY THAT'S TALKING

The day is close at hand when
German money will have to do the
talking. The Germans apparently
are sensible of this or they would
not offer, as it is said they have done,
about $4,000 100000 in place of the
fifty four billions demanded by the
allies.
Just what are the details of this
offer, and which may impair the APP
proach to fairness suggested on the
face of the Offer, is not learned at
this writing. One naturally will re-
gard them with more or less sus-
picion until they are thoroughly gone
over.
The taxes which Germany would
have to pay per capita to raise this
indemnity they offer is estimated to
be less than twice what France will
have to pay in taxes per capita be-
sides paying for the ruthless and con-
scienceless devastation caused by
Germany, this notwithstanding the
Preparations she will receive.
Another estimate is, that consider
ing the decrease in the purchasing
power of gold, this payment, in value,
is not six times in excess of what
Germany exacted of France in 1871
leaving France in addition thereto to
repair the ravages of war which was
fought wholly on her territory.
France paid her bill within six
months and Germany wants 80 or 10
years in which to do it.
The attitude of France in her de-
feat commanded the respect and ad-
miration of the whole civilized world.
So much may not be said of Germany,
and the worst of it is that Germany
doesn't appear to care provided she
can save dollar.

Why Recovery Is Slow.


Recovery is delayed by several un-
settling factors. These include, in
about the order of their Importance:
Cd The uncompleted liquidation of
labor. co The unexpectedly poor
showing being made by the railroads
under the Esch- Cummins law, and
apprehension over impending labor
developments. CD Hardness in re-
ducing prices by numbers of basic
Industries. ca Unforeseen delay in
starting machinery to extend credits
to foreign purchasers. co Reten-
ton of high money rates for period
almost without parallel in our finan-
cial annals. co The failure of the
retail trade. as whole, to lower
prices commensurate with the dras-
tic declines in wholesale prices. CD
Acute dissatisfaction in responsible
circles over lax burdens and the alb
sence of any definite plan in Wash
ington to effect thoroughgoing re-
form and economy. 90 Tariff un-
Certainties. 60 Germany's refusal
to meet the Allies demands and the
new outbursts of rebellious lawless-
ness by Reds" Nevertheless, things
are slowly getting better, not worse.
