Paris, April "a.
Miss Suzanne Lengien has refused a
large sum for a three months contract
to play exhibition tennis matches In the
United States. according to friends in
Nice to whom the French champion con-
fided the offer. Her excuse is that she
prefers to remain in the amateur class.
Miss Lenglen has been the chief at
traction of the season on the courts at
Nice, playing at different times with the
Kings of Spain and Sweden and with
scores Of diplomatic and military visit
ors. Yesterday while playing with the
King of Sweden the latter tried to baf-
fle her by serving balls at terrific
rate, accurately placed on the back line
Of the court. But Miss Lenglen scored
later when serving. sending several balls
with striking precision to the centre OF
the Kings stomach.
After laughing heartily at his own
discontinue the King invited Miss
Lenglen to play on the royal courts at
Christlania after the international tour
nament ends next month.

American Advice Needed.
The American refusal to act as ar
bitrator was received with satisfac-
ton as proof of the never doubted
good will toward England and France
Germany, of course, made the plea
knowing that American acceptance
would be bitterly resented by the
French people. On the other hand,
there must be if possible some settle

vice and influence through diplomatic
channels would be helpful to the

must be done without sentiment or

But before that happens Germany

the French Government must per-
suade their people-or perhaps the
French people must persuade their
Government--that half loaf l. bet
ter than no bread and that ploughmen
in French fields are more valuable
ana less costly than soldiers in occu-
pied towns.
These words of mine run counter
to popular passion. for which, God
knows, we have cause enough. But
the world is not going to be put right

the vast majority to law and order.
But when certain forces are set in

those forces were almost unleashed.

are not satisfied that they were justi-

Inaccurate Figures Presented.
Inaccurate figures for propaganda
purposes were presented by both sides,
with appeals 70 prejudice, pride and
passion. instead Of to reason. The
general public is indignant over these
methods and says: "For Gods sake
and England's sake tell the truth to
us and TO yourselves. Get down to
business. Get back to work on fair
basis of agreement that is not tenn
porary but permanent"
There is fair prospect that this
will soon happen, but other great
branches Of labor are now threatened
by drastic wage reductions which they
must face and accept because of al
tered conditions in Europe.
The only sane way to deal with this
problem is by national education In
economic laws and by mutual conces-
sions between capital and labor, with
an equal division OF patriotic sacrifice.
The spirit Of the British people IS
equal to that If wisely and fairly
guided.
This industrial crisis is linked up,
indeed is caused, by far larger
problem which faces Premier Lloyd
George in his conference with the
French Premier and in the further
negotiations with the French Gov
ernmeut-the question Of German
reparationS.
Reason for Labor Troubles.
The reason for the present calamity
in the British coal fields and all our
present labor troubles is the downfall
Of the export trade. That was ruined
because Of the general ruin in Europe.
There will be no profits from our
coal fields and no means of paying de-
cent wages until foreign nations are
able TO buy our raw materials and
manufactured goods.
That depends on the economic re-
vival of the present Allies and their
former enemies The most difficult
problem in the world today is how
TO make Germany pay her full debt
without destroying her Industry. 1t
is certain that Germany Is falsifying
her balance sheets. l have trust
worthy Information that all classes
in Germany are evading internal and
external taxation by transferring
enormous sums to neutral countries,
lodging income tax returns, hoard
ing paper money and by buying prec-
ious stones and objects of art which
do not appear In any available fig
ures.
1t is therefore Immensely difficult
for the Allies TO make an accurate
estimate of the German power to pay.
Certainly estimates on each side will
never agree. The French naturally
are exasperated by the long delay.
Anyhow, they want to see Germany
impotent for many years, however
much she pays or does not pay
