Toscanini conduct his famous or

Victor de Sabata, the audience was
given opportunity to judge of the
capacity of orchestra and leader in

no peers and in musical shading
they have few equals.

THE DEBT OF THE ALLIES

The cat is out. British authorities
announce that they proposed can
collation. of debts among the Allies
that is, each of the nations was to
write "paid" on the obligations it
holds. Our government wisely re-
fused to enter into such an agreement.
Cancellation Of debts would mean lit
tie to Great Britain for she would be
relieved Of her indebtedness to the
United States on the one side, while
on the other side she would be re-
leasing those who owe her. With us
il would be entirely one-sided. We
would cancel obligations to the amount
of nearly 10 billions and receive moth
ing in return. This proposition is en-
tirely different from one | have beer
advocating, namely: that we use the
debt to PURCHASE DISARMA-
MENT. If we make this cancellation
of the amount due US dependent or
disarmament it can be used to so re-
wise the terms of the treaty as to per
nit a lifting of the burden of mill
tarism from the toilers of the world
To use the debt to purchase peace uni

give it to the Allies to be used in get
ting ready for another war would b.
worse than wasting it. The expendi
ture of such sum by the Allies OF
preparedness would be used as an ar
gur1ent in favor of increased expendi
lures on our army and navy. If w
can purchase disarmament the amour
due us would soon be saved in reduces
appropriations.
