Spendthrift Germany

The palpably plain Encouragement Of gov
ernmental finances by the Germans is not with
out a purpose The financial knowledge and
banking adroitness of the Germans before the
war was a source of amazement and envy in
other countries. The government handled its
appropriations and revenues in a truly admirable
manner But since the armistice the manage
ment of the public finances has been deplorable.
Whence this sudden change? Why this reversal?
Because Germany wants to escape the repa-
rations payments. Because she wants to go
bankrupt and blame the allied and associated
governments for her plight.
She has proceeded in this direction with the
same disregard for consequences that she did at
the outset of the war, and emulating her war
time propaganda, financiers and business lead
ers of that country are shifting the blame for
her financial reverses from her own mistaken
policy to the shoulders of others.
Consider the question Of the mark, for in
stance. Germany blanes the low value Of this
monetary unit the allies. But every one
knows that the mark is low in value because
German printing presses are working overtime
to print it in issues of billions.
Look at Germanys budget for 1921-1923,
with its deficit Of 100O00,000,000 marks. The
estimated expenditures including 1900, 900 900

for reparations, amount to $50, O0OO00,000, and
the receipts are set at 60000,000,000.
The budget provides for extensive double
tracking and new railroad lines, extension of
canal systems, reconstruction Of mercantile
marine and vast number of other projects,
wholly inconsistent with her position as debtor.
But to meet these expenditures, the govern
ment is not providing for an adequate system Of
taxation. The public it is said, Is being encourI
aged to evade the payment of taxes on the theory
that the proceeds will go to the allies. German
capital is permitted to escape to other countries,
and moneys paid for goods sold to other nations
does not return to Germany, but stays where the
goods were sold. In case of a general crash the
German manufacturers and exporters will have
tremendous sums of money deposited in other
countries, and thus beyond the reach of the
catastrophe.
Germany is taxed lightly in comparison with
some European countries. On 6O,0OOO00,0O0
marks to be raised by taxation in the present
budget, the burden is about 1000 marks per
head of population. France pays 525 francs per
head At the present exchange rate 1000 marks
is about so francs
A writer in the New York Times commenting
on Germany's clamor for outside relief, suggests
that the bankruptcy into which Germany is driv-
ing herself by reckless initiation is really not al
economic bankruptcy but simply a currency
bankruptcy, and he continues:
THE country's natural resources and indus
trial capacity have not been seriously affected
by the orgy of paper money issues. If the gov
ernment were resolutely to set its affairs in or
der, to make its budget balance, to give up ambi
tious projects of new construction in railways
and shipping and were to levy taxes equal to
those imposed in France and England-and were
really to collect those taxes-it could do more to
stabilize the German mark and the whole system
of German public finance than could any impro-
vised help from outside

In Detroit, one of the hotbeds
of American socialism, a tense sit
uation developed a few days ago
when the national socialist con-
vention met at the same time as
the national convention of disabled
veterans of the world war.
The socialists were opposed to
the war and are generally believed
to be more or less disloyal to our
nations best interests in other
ways. The disabled veterans could
not tolerate this; and so delega-
ton of fifty Of them made trip
over to where the socialists were
Neeting to say that they were
ready to fight again to defend the
flag against sedltion and treason. .
A socialist delegate responded to
this belligerent declaration as
follows:
eve appreciate the sacrifices the
disabled veterans of the world
war have made. We understand
the impulses that drove you to
that sacrifice. At the same time
we have made sacrifices. We die
not believe when the war was de.
clared that it was a just war. Be
cause we so believed, many of oul
comrades have been imprisoned
AS American citizens, we claim the
right of free speech and free assem-.
bly,, and we are going to stand or
those rights"
The leader of the veterans ans.
wered by inviting the socialists te
step outside if they wished to fight
for their beliefs. The invitation
however, was not accepted and the
veterans departed.
Whatever may be said for the
disabled soldiers, they are standing
for loyalty to our flag and institu
tions; and they do not have much
patience with those who seem t.
be trying to overthrow these in
situations.

children's bedtime is often a tax
upon the patience of the mother
and elders. The children are tired
and nervous, the grownups not so
we'll poised as earlier in the day
and the sleepy time is often pc.
Rod of conflicts.
When the little ones go to bed
in a bad humor, the unhappy mood
colors the nights dreams. The
sleep is light and unfreshing and
there is a feeling of something
wrong which they cannot explain.
What should be done? Should
discipline weaken at the end of the
day, or should we hold strictly to
our rules? What is truly best for
the child's good? Can we not af-
ford to be a little lenient and con-
slderate of the mood of the child in
our treatment of him?
If it can possibly be postponed,
evening is not the time for correc-
ton. Of course real naughtiness
must be dealt with, but child
should never go to sleep without
forgiveness for his fault. Comfort
and love should go with him into
! the land of dreams. Often we can
best let the little perverseness wait
over until the morning.
Try to draw out the trend of
your children's thoughts. It is at
the sleepy hour that intimate little
condolences are given and quaint
ideas expressed that lie too deep to
be said in the midst of the happen
ings of the day.
The mother who lends a SYM
pathetic ear to her little folks

and keep an understanding COM
panionship and intimacy which
will be comforting, and prove a
safeguard and happy memory in
later years.

Switzerland, at the call of the
League of Nations, June 80.
The purpose of this conference
was to devise ways and means of
putting an end to the traffic in
white slaves" in all the countries
of the Earth. 1t is known to be
a worldwide business; and the
conviction is growing that it can
never be brought to an end until
all the nations combine to extirpate
it. The assembly of the League of
Nations last December issued the
call for the present conference and
since that time a formal invitation
has been issued to every govern
ment of the world to send repre-
sentatives to it. Most of them
have done so; but our own is
among the ones that have not seen
fit to accept.
1t does not appear to mean that
we do not approveNof the purpose
Of the conference, but rather that
we prefer net to participate in any
of the activities of the League Of
Nations owing to our belief that
we should eventually find ourselves
hopelessly involved in the quarrels
and misunderstanding of other
nations. This appears to be the
true American policy; yet there
are times when we might wish to
see it waived temporarily as in the
present case.

Suffering, Yet Loyal

The unfalterlng devotion OF the
disabled soldiers of the world war
to their country seems the more
worthy Of praise when we remem-
Der that they are not being cared
for as they should be.
It is true that these heroic men
who laid their all upon their coun-
try's altar, and who have in many
cases made a sacrifice even greater
than life itself, are being allowed
to suffer agonies and torments that
are unspeakable, due apparently to
the cumbersome organization of
the departments of our government
that are supposed to take care of
them. Under these circumstances,
it would not be strange if they
grew bitter and less loyal to their
country. There are few, however,
of whom this is true. Instead, the
majority are actually as cheerful
and brave as they were when they
were first taken into the hospitals
of France upwards Of three years
ago.
Much criticism is being heard
over the failure Of Congress to en-
act measures for the relief of these
helpless sufferers. Good will prob
ably come out of it in that Con
gress will be led to act more speed
lily than it would otherwise. Al
ready we are seeing somewhat
faster action than usual in the con-
sideration of the Sweet Bill, which
is intended to relieve the distress
of the manned and disabled veter.
ans of the war. Usually several
months are required to enact such
measures into law. In this case it
appears that as many weeks will
be sufficient.
