After supper the scouts gathered
great quantities of a sort Gf grease
wood, and dry brush and wood IN pre-
paration for the big fire to keep US
warm during night. The cold snap
was beginning to make its self felt.
Seven o'clock and cold, well | guess
yes. The fire was soon burning and
hunting and ghost stories were the
program of the evening. Some of
the scouts aid not obeyed the in
junction to put up lean toos. The re
suit was that they were up all night
keeping the fire going, which meant
warmth not only for themselves but
for all in camp. It's an i'll wind that
blows nobody good.
The Scouts lost no time in getting
out thei rfry pans and preparing broil-
ing sticks. Soon the aroma of coOE-
ing goat flesh was ascending to the
sky. After a hearty meal the horses
were watered and fed and staked out
for the night. Then for a short time
all were busy in getting in a gOoCly
supply of frewood for a big campfire
knowing that the usual campfire
stories would be forthcoming.
From midnight on it was pretty cold
and the Scouts took turns in replen-
ishing the fire. Early Tuesday morn.
ing they wereiastir and getting break
fast. The horses were GivCl the last
of the barley, and waiered. Then
saddling and packing: and the start
for the Kaupo Gap was made about
eight o'clock.
Tie Commissioner had been told
th2C tie Kaupo Gap was y steep and
dangerous trail. It may have been,
b'lJ it as far more inlsreitin@ a d
bea'Ili!ri than the ascent from C.. in
da. 1t certainly was refreshing to
have the beautiful green growth on
all sides, and the shade was very ac-
ceptable during the hot part of the
descent.
The Beauty of the Gap
The western slopes of the Kaupo
Gap are barren and bleak, but the
eastern slopes, along which the travel
err rides, is covered with verdure, and
the great slopes on the left are one
mass of beautiful green. Great
plateaus spread out before him, and
then a sharp decline to the next level.
This is the beauty of the gap 1t is
like a great flight of steps. We final
ly carle out on one of the ~plateaus
and the beautiful sight of the great
sloping mountain, reaching clear to
the sea, broke before us. Cheer on
cheer split from the threats of the
troop, and the cry, "Kaupo, Kaupo',
rang on the air
Yes, away below us was Kaupo nest
led in emerald greens, browns and
sepias a beautiful sight and well
worth travelling to see. From where
we sat on our horses the trail was
like a winding serpent, no more
%plateaus, but one continual slope to
the very ocean edge.
Half way down the trail we finally
reached some big water holes and
here the men, Scouts and horses, re-
freshed themselves in the cool spark,
ling pools. Gee, but it was certainly
good after the hard ride down the
steep trails.
a short rest and the Journey was
continued down to the home of Mr..
Vierra at Kaupo, where a telephone
message was sem on to Kipahulu that
the Bronco Busters would reach that
place at 8, Wednesday morning. Then
on to the Kaupo store to secure grain
for the horses. Here the troop rested
for about an hour and continued on

reparations account must find its way into
American hands. Our Government will hold
s11.0oo.0o0,00o of German bonds against ITS
leans to our associates. Private interests
will have to accept further bonds in return
for their loans.
This comes down to a frank recognition
that the nations which Germany attacked
and particularly Great Brita n and France.
are facing the situation in which their hope
for escape from the wreckage or the war
rests almost exclusively upon two factors
Willingness Of Germany TO pay and willing
ness of the United States to take German
bonds in return for allied indebtedness. III
Germany refuses to pay. then force can De
used against her and she will be totally
ruined. But this will not improve the stu-
alton of the nations which depend upon her
payments to meet American demands. nor
will 1t benefit the United States whch
would then lost the whole of Its lendings.
Granted, however that we accept German
bonds for allied indebtedness, recognizing
that the ability of our debtors to pay US
depends upon German capacity ana Wiling :
ness to pay--by Willingness l mean enforced
assent not voluntary consecutive are then
intermingled in European AFFAIRS beyond
anything any one has yet suggested.
On the financial side we shall be infinitely
more concerned than any other nation In
making Germany pay up. because our stake
in German reparations will actually be twice
as much as that Of any other nation.
Americans must note. even if they do not
accept the French and the British views OF
the whole loan question. The money was
spent mainly in the period before we could
effectively enter the war, before our troops
could reach France. before we could fight.
But for that money the Germans might have
won. but II the allied troops had not done the
fighting while we furnished the money, the
war---our war as well as theirs--would have
been lost The money itself was not spent
to the profit Of any nation borrowing In
the case Of Britain most of it was promptly
reloaned TO the European nations fighting
Germany, whose notes we would not take.
These nations cannot now pay Britain but
we expect Britain to pay US.
To imagine that the French people VIII
give over the reconstruction of their ruins In
order to repay us the money which we
loaned to them to fight while we were at
war but unready is to imagine vain thing.
TO imagine that they will undertake them
selves this colossal burden, properly charge
able to Germany and Germany alone, is
equally foolish. To all Europe this debt lie
a debt owed by Germany and not by nations
who shared with us in the common struggle.

Cheap Goods Flooding Our Markets and In

ance there is the solid basis of fact our as
sociates can only pay us as Germany pays
them. If we desire to open European mar
kets, to reduce the terms imposed upon the
Germans that we may sell our products In
Central Europe. we cannot do 1t at the ex
pense Of our associates; we must do II at our
own expense.
Trade Versus Reparstons Is
Root of Europe'S Puzzle
The British situation Is different from the
French. 1t Is more important to Britan
now to get the markets OF the world open
than to collect vast sums from Germany.
Britains share in the German indemnities,
after all. is not 30 great as to make it
worth while permanently to risk the Ger
man and European markets. Like us. Brit
ain ic concerned gravely in the, restoration
of peace conditions In business. Unless Ibis
be done many of her workmen permanently
unemployed must emigrate and the existing
domestic .sery will be increased intoer-
ably.
But so long as Britain insists that France
repay her loans. so long as we take the
same view, Britain will have to consent
that the sum of German reparations be high
and we shall have to keep our hands off.
For the transparent fact is that 1t Is be-
coming a question Of trade against repara-
attainable at the same tine
A new factor, too. Is entering into the
situation Granted that Germany can and
will pay a vast reparations account. say
$21. 900, 900, ,00O she can only pay in exports
and in manufactured articles. These must
be sold primarily In the British Empire and
the United States and they will materially
reduce the sale OF competing articles man
ufactured by the British and by us. Thus
while vast German payments In goods flow
in, domestic industry will be less and less
occupied and unemployment will increase
by leaps and bounds.
In the last analysis IL Germany pays
s21, 900, 100000 in the fortytwo year period
fixed at Pars she will only pay it In goods,
in manufactured goods for she has prac-
tically no raw materials which we can take
or need. And the same Is true for Britain.
But this means that we shall have to abb
sorb not $1,000 100000 OF goods. the capital
value of our loans. whose payment depends
