TELEPHONE GIRL
 SHOWS COURAGE
Miss BcrniCc Snwka Displays True Woman Hcroism in Discovering
 Fire in Building.

Miss Bernice Sowka of 9S Dwight street, a telephone operator at the io- cal exchange on Court street, recently did very calm and creditable piece of work at the office when she dis covered a small fire in the telephone building. The fire proved to be of little consequence due to the presence of mind of the young lady and the prompt action she took in calling the fire department.
 A story of the affair was given in the December number of the tele- phone bulletin. The fire, Miss Sow ka found, was burning in the boiler room. She discovered the smoke sev- eraI minutes before and was unable to sense where it came from. Finally she decided to make an investigation She made a tour of the rooms in the building and on reaching the boiler room was greeted with a rush of smoke which Choked and blinded her The flames were already burning hriskly. She quickly closed the door and without the slightest panic, called the wire chief and told him about it. Her next quick step was to call the fire department and it was quickly ex- tinguished without much damage. However, firemen said that it might have proved disastrous one had not the calm action of Miss SoWka saved the building.

GERMANS ARE NOT
 GIVEN ANY HOPES
Dr. Rathcnau Obtains No Promise, for Loan Or Moratorium From
 British Officials.

Berlin, Dec. 15, (By Associated Press) .-Dr. Rathenau brought from London no concrete proposals for either a loan or a moratorium for Germany. Neither did his parIeys with authoritative British financial quarters afford any tangible basis upon which the German government would be warranted to base the con- clusiOn that it will be granted any great measure of positive relief with regard to it's separations obligations.
 This, in effect, was the admission made yesterday by cabinet officials who declined to enter upon any dis cussion of the present stage of the deliberations which have been going on since Dr. Rathenau's return. A special credit commission consisting of nine leading industrialists, fnan- Ciers and economists, appointed by Chancellor Wirth, held a conference with Dr. Rathenau and the chancel- Tor last night.
 The German press continues in a state of ignorance and, in the ab- sence of it's customary inspiration from official quarters continues to paint the situation as steeped in gloom. It warns the public to be prepared for the worst.
 Officials of the ministry of finance are also reticent, although they nave been frequently called in for consul tatiOn since Dr. Rathcnau's return. Newspaper editorial writers are al- ready contemplating the prospects of Germany being compelled to take re- course to the Rcichbanll's gold re- serve in order to fill out the 500000,- O0O marks due January Is on the reparatiOnS account.

 Talks On Credit
 LeRoy Campbell, the speaker. is
 the man who made up the system of credits which has been adopted by the Hartford chapter. Credit" ac- cording to Mir. Campbell, takes form
 even in check. A check might be termed an evolution for convenience while credit is an evolution from in convenience" he said.
 In continuing, Mr. Campbell said, | Credit is given only as a temporary measure, or that is the only reason
 it should be given out. Permanent
 credits should be made by the con- i cern itself by selling stock or by oth- CT means but not borrowing from the bank"
 Mir Campbell stated that a new an gle had come before the Hartford
 chapter in regards to the worth of
 credits. The chapter is considering
 whether or not the account is profit able. According to Mir. Campbell, q hazard is obtained on every loan. He feels that if the balance of q con- cern or individual is low, there is no reason for giving loan to that party
 In determining as to how far a bank
 may loan, Mir, Campbell stated that it depends upon the customer and his business. Although one bank may pass judgment on a party, he stated, that that was no sign that every oth- CT bank would do the same.

COAL QUESTIONS.

People are not buying coal when
they ought to he buying. Putting it
off means shortage again next fall
with more increase and more prof
iteering. And yet people delay buy
ing. Why? Four questions are asked.
First, why does coal cost more III
Baltimore than in Washington?
Freight is lower here; the cost of
handling connot be more. unless arti-
ficialiy raised. We have heard no
reasonable explanation.
Second, why don't prices come
down? All admit they are too high.
Many say the scarcity of 1920 has
been artificially prolonged and that
present prices represent profiteering
all along the line. We have yet to
see an explanation that justifies the
present prices for coal. Have you?
Third, Why don't the people lay in
their coal? Simply because they have
an idea that if they hold out long
enough the prices will come down.
The probable result viii be that the
buying will crowd in at the last
moment and there will be the usual

IRRRCoNCILABLE "CREATI0S."

As was foreseen. the irreconcilable
Senators are much put 70 il by the
invitation TO this country from the
League of Nations 10 nominate Judges
for the new international court. While
to them the League has been~a blessed
word Now they are offered the
court through the League. Mr.. Root
tells them that this is the only way to
get IL. What are they to do about it,
Dare they admit for a moment that
any good thing can come out of the
Nazareth of the League? Can they
even indirectly recognize the existence
Of that agency of Satan?
The irreconCila bles are nothing If
not metaphysical. One of them, with
the air of an Irrefragable Doctor, tells
: Washington correspondent how their
difficulty will be got over. To be sure.
the League is the creator" of the
court. But the court, "once created. !"
will cease to have any connection"
with the League. This is not so novel
conception as might be thought.
There have been like theories of the
creation OF the world. Ii seems much
easier TO account for its wiclIedness If
we suppose that it has got entirely
out OF the hand of its Creator. He
made it. the supposition has been. and
then, as it were, retired TO private life,
while the earth spun as ii would
through all the grooves of change.
In spite of all their perversity, il has
always been possible to get a certain
amount of amusement out of the ir-
reconcilable Senators. They were
never more amusing than now, when.
in their present dilemma about the
League and the court, they drop the
role Of pain, blunt and common
sense patriots and take TO theological
speculations.-New York Times.
