of the health of Topeka citizens will
receive due attention.
Care For All Cases.
The hospital itself, as tentatively
seen by the Topeka men who mean to
secure it, will be able to care for the
cases which now have little chance of
getting hospital attention-those who
are too poor to pay their own eX-
penSes, and not poor enough to be
come public charges so that the city
or county is compelled to pay for their
treatment. 1t is hoped that the public
free clinics which are now held at the
city building may have quarters in the
general hospital.
In case of an epidemic or conta gious
disease, cases which it IS unwise or
inconvenient to quarantine In their
homes, may be cared for properly in
the isolation wards
These and some other features, are
in the minds of the Lions VINO have
taken up the health program. 1t may
be a little time in accomplishment
but they have set their hands to the
task.
The membership of City Commits
sioner Robert D. McGifferr, head OF
the health department of the city, and
of DR.. Earle G. Brown, city health Of
ficer in the Lions club, affords an
additional advantage to the organiza-
health.
Weekly Luncheon Today.
The Lions held their weekly lunch
con at the Elks' club at noon today
on account of the fact that Thursday
is Thanksgiving day. Harold T. Chase
of the editorial staff of the Topeka
Daily Capital, was their speaker. Chase
told the members of the Lon club of
the methods of disseminating the
news of the disarmament conference
in Washington, now going on. He
explained to the Lions how the hap
penings at the peace table in Wash
ington are relayed to their breakfast
table. Chase also explained some of
the history of the Far East question
which is occupying the international
experts, and the position of Japan in
that territory.
The Lions in Topeka have more
than thirty members, and are more
than a year old. A. E. Van Petten,
president of the Pioneer Mortgage
company. is president of the club.

Suggestions.

A cheap tin bread box may be made
into a white enameled bread box by
an hours work Give the box a coat
of flat white paint, followed by one or
two coats of white enamel. Paint the
inside and outside of the box and leave
it in the open air to dry thoroly be-
fore using. Such a bread box is a
joy for years. Be sure the box is per-
fectly dry before beginning the pro-
cess and avoid all sudden changes OF
temperature when washing it after
wards. Quick change from cold to
heat will break off the paint

A Carefully Balanced Whole.

The time may come when there will be no
navies. This least as probable as that the time
will come when there will be no more crime and
men will be perfect
But so long as there navies these will con-
sst as an organized whole, of considerable variety
OF fighting units 1t is rather foolish to talk of
seraPPng the capital ships and of navies composed
Of submarines and airships.'
The growth Of navies does not show the aban-
donment OF any one class of ships. There has been
constant improvement in speed, size, power, efec-
tiveness and offensive and defensive devices of the
original fighting ships These are the capital
ships Of today the battleships and cruisers
To these which formed the original navies from
the days Of galleys propelled by oars, have from
time to time been added other types of offensive
and defensive auxiliaries and agencies The fast
cruiser scout ship, developed to the battleshiD
cruiser, is in itself Of these.
Distinct hospital Ships coers and machine
ships and others, as we'll as the torpedo boat and
the destroyer, and now the submarine, the subma-
rne chaser and the airship are but other additions
The very coming of sea weapon brings an
other to counterbalance it add to its effective
ness the airshp brings the mother ship to house
and transport it.
Nsvies have but grown more complicated lust
as have armies, but the infantry and artillery service
OF armies not to be supplanted nor is even the
cavalry as yet back number
The naval problem of today is not one of
scrappng this that factor service or its aban-
donment. 1t is problem of balance Up to now,
nayies have centered around the capital ships. Is
this to be true Of the future, and if so to what ex-
tent? 1t was once thought by some that the de-
stroyers would make them vaIueless
1t is even more than improbable that the great
battieshIps VIII ever pass into mere history. But

Unnecessary Misunderstanding.

Last Friday report came from the Department
OF Agriculture that the wheat stocks in the United
States in all positions amounted to only 32oooo,ooo
bushels January !. This was corrected or cx-
planned within the trading period not including
wheat on the farms for feeding and seed
The market went up and down on the report
and its explanation. The department has its own
explanation of this as Of other figures which mar
ket experts are unable 10 understand to recon-
cile with other statements, q previous reports.
The frequency of this situation need not be
taken a criticism of the department. Don't
choke the child it is doing the best it can" But
does point to the need of reaching exact accuracy
or of discontinuing the service.
1t points to a need of consistent and unvary-
ing system of estimates which will start on a def
mite basis and stay on it. Congress should provide
sufficient fund for this which it does not do
since in large measure prices are based on these
reports and it is the farmer rather than the trader
VIII opays for any errors, mistakes or contradictions
matter what the cause.
The trader hedge, he may make up to-
morrow for today, but the farmer can do neither.
No doubts the ability integrity of the bureau
from which these estimates There is no occa-
sion to believe it cannot supply the need if given
the facilities But the fact is it has had to take
what was left after all other demands were cared
for.
NeadlnS the dlgeSt OF government reports and
of market letters, analyzing them and the market
situation, it also occurs to the the side-line
that it would be very helpful if the department Off
cials and the exchanges had closer understanding
Certainly the traders and officials should be able to
reach certain agreements basic facts.
They should reach a mutual understanding on
system and form in making and publishing reports
which would go far to preventing wide variance in
Interpretation When criticisms are taken directly
to the various bureaus an explanation is ready
which either explains, does not explain.
But it sometimes develops that the bureau has
started with supposed fact, while the CONNER
cial expert has started with another 1t would help
if they started and it would also help if they
had the system of percentages and of vari-
ance.
In fact there would seem to be decided need
for the department bureaus and the traders who
depend upon their reports, to get together in
mutually helpful way, to clear up misunderstanding
and to reach common basis of estimates.

Reparations.

AT last definite has been fixed for Ger
man reparations. Germany is to pay total of
S5o,ooo,oooooo in forty-two years. In addition she
is to collect I2H per duty on all her exports
and pay this into the fund
Can she do this and will she do it? That she
can, there is little to doubt That she will,
is highly improbable and further concessions may
we'll be expected either at the London conference
with her represen tatves, or later.
She has not yet met a single one OF the obliga-
tons imposed upon her by the treaty and shows
no intention of complying with the final financial
demand. 1t remains then to be how serious the
alhes-especialy Great Britan-are in making this
their last word and what they will do to enforce it
The $56,oooooo,ooo is the bulk amount 1t in
cludes interest we'll principal. Germany
avoid the interest by fastening payment: Of the
principle which amounts to around $4,000 900 900.
That she can, if she WILL pay this in much less than
forty-two years is probable.
Germany's debt is practically all internal;
it is due to her people. 1t is less in its COM
parative total than that of any of her enemies.
The war did not touch her soil her industries.
She is industriay intact and her chief industries
are restored to the extent of paying huge
profits.
Her people, rather her wealth, was not taxed
Tor war costs 10 compare with that of the allies
She retained Of her stores OF gold She paid
llueJ II any OF the costs OF the war IN cash. She
has retained her industrial and financial organiza-
ton
The earning capacity of her people has always
been proportionately large Knowing just what they
have to pay, just what is necessary, the exact de-
mand, they can, if they will, meet it, provided alone
they are not further hampered in their efforts to
do
1t is here the tariff rider is OF importance. This
is concession to France which Great Britain was
not reluctant to grant 1t is aimed 10 prevent
too quick German trade recovery. 1t is leaf taken
from the French book OF after the Franco Prussian
Then, by haggling, France had her indemnity
cut I,ooo,oooooo francs and paid all the balance in
exchange far within the allotted time. 1t is not
intended that Germany shall do this same thing
and repeat history
Nor do the allies to meet German goods
in foreign markets equal terms, or to meet them
with the German advantage represented in ex-
change rates. So this very peculiar and ingenious
condition added to a German export tax on
all German goods, to be paid to the Reparations
Commission.
Germany has been told what she must pay but
that she must not pay it too quick. She is to go
to work for those she has deeply injured, with
ball and chain her leg to hold her back. The
justice of the device hardly be questioned but
its wisdom is decidedly doubtful

Americas Contribution.

TINE Foreign Trade Financing Corporation is
translated from ideal to a practical fact
from paper program to a working organ
ization- 1t has been organized and its stock is
offered the market
This is final proof to the Old World that
America first" has not meant America over al"
nor America without regard to the wel-being and
prosperity Of other countries. 1t has but meant
that the United States would not oolishly rush in
where angels might we'll fear to tread, but that
when the comparatively safe road was found, its
people were ready to take their share Of the bur
dens, and develop ways of world helpfulness.
1t is self-evdent that usefulness is based on
ability to help and that wasting this ability helps
one. The stronger the United States can keep
itself the greater can be its usefulness 1t is this
which has caused delay and it is this which has
brought this Foreign Trade Financing Corporation.
1t will have SIOo,ooo,ooo capital and financing
and credit capacity OF at least 81 900 100000. There
will be no promotion underwriting charge in
placing the stock The full par value will be left
intact for use, which of itself shows the sincerity
and complete integrity of the organization.
1t will provide the greatest service this country
can possibly do for other countries and for itself
\ large part Of Europe is living from hand to mouth
and the hand has not been able in very many in
stances, reach even that far. Temporary, short
time credit has proved wholly inadequate to meet
the situation.
Charity has had to undertake to FIJI the lack
OF other temporary eXpedients. The $4,000 900
Hoover" fund, and the Near East fund come from
this absence OF the greater and permanent agency
10 finance industry to enable those people to pro-
vide for themselves.
Austria's plight is another direct result of the
want Of such organization by which she could
provide the coal and other raw materials without
which her people must starve in ideness. In only
less desperate condition is Poland and other coun-
tries They must have the materials with which
to work
In fact this corporation is Americas contribu-
ton to re-establish in the world the gospel of work.
which is the greatest Of peace agencies. 1t is only
necessary to put these people back in their accus
toned employments to re-establish the soundness
Of their credit A people at work are always
solvent
At the time, it will provide the needed
markets for surplus materials. 1t will do
for the farmers what they hoped to get from the
Federal Finance Commission. 1t will do what the
government could not do, it will be able to de-
termine in what direction to grant credit and to
what extent.
The stock will be of the soundest invest
ments and should be broadly taken as it has asso-
ciaed with its strictly financial attractions all the
romance and glamor of being the worlds greatest
peace movement and of combining in itself all the
relief agencies the practical basis of helping
those people to help themselves

RADIO SIGNS AND AURORA
ASSOCIATED, SAY EXPERTS.

Long distance radio transmission
at night is associated with the
boundary of the highly conducting
outer portion of the atmosphere.
which is also the origin of the au-
roral disturbances" said Drs. J. II.
Dellinger and L. E. Whittemore,
radio experts of the Bureau of
Standards, at the meeting of the
Philosophical Society Saturday
night, where they reported the
progress of extensive cooperative
tests to determine the cause OF
fading or swinging of wireless sig
mails. These variations in strength
of signals sent at night are prob
ably caused by the absorption of
the waves by masses OF slightly
ioniZed air at the very high alti-
tudes, they declared.
Experimental work done to enable
the prediction of the influence of
the distributed capacity of induct-
ance coils from their method of con-
struction was described by G. Brett,
from the same bureau. This dis
tributed capacity affects their be-
havior in electrical circuits and is
very important in radio work, it
was stated
The Washington herald., 1921-02-01

that there will be fewer of them and that these few
will be materially changed in structure and fighting
equipment is probable. 1t may be expected that
their uses will be more restricted and that they
will be made to conform to this limited field
Until all of this is fairly we'll settled, it would
seem unwise to continue to buld't present types
and to plan navy around them of the kind which
the world war indicated may be superseded in the
near future in its balance of types and kinds of
val weapons
