kARoLYI's possession showed that
with the support and conniyance OF
the Moscow Soviet he was planning
the formation of Communist colony
of Hungarian immigrants in America.
Other documents showed, according TO
the statement of the italian authori-
ties, that he distributed funds sent
from Moscow among Italian radicals
and that he and his wife were instru-
mental in melting the recent disorders
Ia and around Florence,
The Italians did not entirely WASH
their hands OF KARoLyI by passing
him on to Carinthia, for no sooner had
hc prepared to settle down at Jarvis
than the Austrians returned him and
his party to the Italian police. He
asked to be sent 10 Fiume, but Italy
refused to grant this request. Czecho-
Slovakia. Spain, France and Portugal,
to which he appealed, all refused to
receive him. ltaly's only recourse
apparently is to send him by airplane
ia Soviet Moscow. No other place will
offer welcome to a man tarred with
the brush with which KARoLYI is.

Good Sunday Reading.

From his seclusion at Princeton
Dr. HENRY VAN DYKE surveys the
fields of art and morals and gives a
view of present day conditions which
is conservatively optimistic. There
must always be a moral quality in
artistic presentation. The casual evils
Of Objectionable dancing and rues-
tionable dress may be left to ridicule,
caricature or satire. But art must
not be perverted by wrong intention
or unconscious yielding to low i'm
pulses.
In the magazine section of THE
New York HERALD Of tomorrow DR..
VAN DYKE applies these standards of
criticism to many current interests
from the poetry of JOHN KEATS to the
jazz that Is not music. His article is
one OF group Of uncommon and i'm
mediate concern to thinking men and
women. Nine. CURES marvellous
work, revolutlonizing the science of

perience Of army aviators, of dropping
four miles through the air pendent
from filmsy silk bag Is described by
RICHARD II. WATKINS.
Another topic which Is of impor-
tance to all Is the prolongation OF life

defects and the application of RENE

Plays Beethoven Programme.

Beethoven programme was Mr.
Stransky's Offering at the Friday after
noon concert of the Philharmonic Society
in Carnegie Hall yesterday. The num-
bers offered for the public pleasure were
the "Corioian" overture, the violin con-
certo and the .Eroica" symphony. The
solo performer on the violin was Alex
ander Schmuller. who was introduced TO
local audiences by Willem Mengelberg,
future conductor of the expanded Phil
harmonic.
The Beethoven concerto is heard much
oftener in these busy days than 1t used
to be in earlier years. Then 1t was APP
preached with something like awe except
by few of the great ones of the earth.
But we have made progress. The violin
Is no longer regarded as formidably
difficult instrument. Youth handles ~
with confidence, and out of the hands OF
babes and suclklings come forth Pag-
nanni concertos and even the Bach
chaconne Little boys scarcely out or
their teens reel off the masterpieces to
the amazement OF old men whose wisdom
has the shelter OF white hairs. Girls
whose locks are long and skirts very
short evoke thunders OF applause ana
ecstatlc comments.
And through K all the Beethoven con-
certo maintains It's place. In the hands
of men entirely great Il is mightier thah
the sword. In those Of men or smali
vision 1t retains it's individuality, Dut
sounds like tho prattling OF little Willie
Beethoven before he had breasted life's
tempests When q violinist plays the
work smoothly, accurately, almost I'M
peccably, but with a timid tone and
mincing style. it makes the recession into
juvenility. Mr.. Schmullcr played 1t thus
yesterday afternoon. 1t was as pretty
as a piece Of artificial Ice and the au-
dience loved it. Mr.. Schmuller gos greas
glory and for several minutes looked
happy.
The overture was also politely per-
formed AS for the "Eroica," = Is In
deed heroic, for 1t bears UP maveilously
under the repeated attacks make upon
il in the course Of the season.
The Governor of New Jersey and Mrs.
Edwards, Lieut-Gov. Wood OF New
York and Mrs. Wood and Mr.. and Mrs.
A. s. Gilbert were with Messrs. Alfred
and George Frunkenthaler.

Foreign Exchange Indications.

SATURDAY, MARCH -, 1921.
The Colombian Treaty Again.

1t is now on the programme OF
the United States Senate to take up
at the April extra session the long
agitated Colombian treaty. The
American people will be deeply con-
cerned to know what Is to be done
with this notorious business. They
will be sorely tried If 1t IS not dis
posed of properly.
Almost from the very hour 1t came
into power eight years ago the Wilson
Administration seemed to be possessed
of a mania to make odious and in
delible reflection upon our acquire
ment of the Panama Canal. 1t was
determined 20 put through treaty in
stances that it would be stigma upon
THEODORE ROOSEVELT, carrying as well
an insult to the nation. In the earlier
drafts of the treaty, In truth, this
Government was made to be confess
edly guilty Of at least q moral crime
and to be sentencing itself In punish
ment for that crime to a fine OF
twenty-five millions oil dollars 70 be
paid over to the wronged Colombia.
This meditated infamy against the
nation by its own treaty negotidtors
aroused such storm Of national
protest that the shameful confession
and debased apology were removed
from the document. The proposed
fine Of twenty-five millions, however,
was retained in 1t. Thereafter an
American Senate, mindful Of our
rights and jealous Of our honor,
never permitted the treaty to be con-
firmed. But 1t has ceaselessly lin
gered on our doorstep.
Now that the treaty Is to come up
again THE New York HERALD must
protest If this country is to be re-
lieved Of twenty-five millions Of dol
lars, under whatever pretence, TO get
rid OF the importunate agencies which
for so long have been suffered to
knock at our Treasury doors with
demands which cannot be granted
without reproach to a great and hon
orable leader Of his country and with
out discredit to the American name.

Curing the World.
Justice Needed Before the Love Pre-
scribed by Maurice Hewlett.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: In the
Fortntghtly Reviet0 OF February appears
an article entitled THE One Thing Need
full" After reviewing the present lam
entable condition OF the world and the
dreadful consequences OF a future war
the author, Maurice Hewlett, proceeds f:
what then? Has the world gone mad ?
Or Is il so grated in stock OF Ill wilI
that Il cannot help itself? There Is
only one thing that will help It Man
must learn to love instead Of to hate"
The advice is good. But how to give
II effect? Calling upon men to love one
another will not do It. There IL only
one thing will do It and that Is TO do
Justice between nation and nation, be-
tween man and man.
An old Roman once exclaimed Fiat
iusticia rust cplumi" (Let justice be
done though the heavens falL) This
cry needs 10 be taken up anew, But we
need not be afraid that doing Justice
will bring down the heavens rather the
contrary. STR1NUs.

hopes for an ami..abla settlement ran
high. 1t was believed Europe had
decided TO settle down to the real
work OF peace and reconstruction
This would have been distinctly favor
able and a rise In the exchanges
could have been regarded as nothing
but natural. But the exchanges did
not rise. They stood still.
At the beginning Of this week.
when 1t was announced that Germany
would be invaded, the exchanges Inn
medately rose. In the face Of armed
invasion and coercion OF Germany
this looked illogical. German marks
at least should have declined. But
German marks, as well as British
pounds and all the other allied cur
rencies, advanced, and they still hold
above or at the level recorded at the
opening Of the conference.
London exchange at $500 is three
cents higher than on March Z; Paris
exchange ut I'll cents a franc Is not
down from that date; italian lire
are points higher. at 3.6S cents
each; even marks at 1.60 cents each
are up 2 points.
Nothing in the news suggests an
early settlement of the European dis
pute. Amateur gaZers into the for
eign exchange crystal may therefore
be excused if they are amazed at the
refusal Of the foreign exchange mar
ket to follow what to them may seem
the logical trend. Experts feel the
pulse of the international money mar
ket and refuse to commit themselves
as buyers or sellers. They know that
money is timid and that it fees from
danger if there IS danger. They are
waiting for that influence which has
so often revealed itself In the past to
make itself felt In the foreign ex-
change market and fell them just

respectfully refers Premier BRAND
and I'll others TO the last word Of

AS for the attitude of President
HARDING himself. THE New York
HERALD respectfully refers the
French Premier and all others to his
inaugural address in general, but in
particular to the following definite.
specific and conclusive declaration on
March 4, 1921:
1--WE do not mean TO be entangied.
America can be a party to no
permanent military alliance. 1t can
enter into no political commitments
nor assume any economic obligations
which will subject our decisions to
any other than our own authority.
I'm a deliberate questioning Of a
suggested change Of national policy
where Internationally was to SUPER
sede nationality we turned to a REL
erendum OF the American people.
There was ample discussion and there
Is a public mandate In manifest
understanding"
The League of Nations, then, old
or new, substitute or proxy-any kind
of league seeking, in whatever form

the Leagues sponsors and supporters
aim to do, Is off the American map
