Paris Proposes Payment in Kind

Paris, Dec. 15.-The sole financial
concession France is willing to make
to Germany in the PREPARATIONS situa-
ton is the substitution of payment
in kind for cash payments, it is
stated semi-oflicially. This change
was contemplated in the Weisbaden
agreement, which the PREPARATIONS
commissioners have not yet ratified.
France is willing to agree that
the other allies conclude similar ar
engagements with Germany, and de-
clares the Weisbaden pact might
serve as the basis for an allied eco
pomic entente.
The government has no objection
to England's granting Germany a
moratorium on Britain's share of
the indemnity, but will never ap-
prove Of general moratorium af-
fecting France.
England continues to insist that
France ratify the agreement of Au-
gust Is, which decided how the repara-
tions payments were to be divided but
French officials hold the first ques-
ton to be settled is how Germany will
pay and not who will get the money.
They see in Germany's insolvency a
loophole whereby France may con-
tinue to withhold acceptance Of the
August agreement, under which
France would be forced to forfeit a
portion of the first billion marks
paid by Germany.
1t is understood this is the point

The Operatic Sickroon,

Now that tie worlds greatest
tenor is past the crisis of his illness
and headed toward recovery, every
one trusts, it is proper to drop an
admiring word for the cheerfulness
and dramatic color of his sickroom,
When an ordinary mortal. or an
ordinary American, at any rate. has
the "fiu" his room is swathed in quiet
and he dwells as aloof and alone AS
If waited upon desert island. A
trim and starched angel swoops
down from heaven now and again
with cup of mutton broth or
thermometer or some other of the
indestructible equipment of the mod
ern sickroom. All Is peace and
asepsis.
What jolly and busy spot is the
Caruso bedside in comparisonl No
wonder all the world loves Italians!
The friends of the opera house
crop in for a word Of hope or q
tear. The ambassador pays his re-
spects. One is inevitably reminded
of those many scenes of illness upon
the older operatic stage, wherein the
privacy of the occasion never pre-
vents large and noisy chorus from
standing by--or at least half
dozen friends from rushing to and
fro while the hero or heroine sings
and sings and sings.

will be recalled, between serried

that they till the soil far better ahu

Procedure, Not a Plan

The resolutions of the state Cham
Der of Commerce strongly indorsing
what is called the Governors plan
for solving the traction problem are
calculated to assist greatly in secur-
ing the passage Of the Lusk-Adler
bill. That the resolutions were in
troduced and urged for passage by
William McCarrol. former Public
Service Commissioner and learned
in transit matters, by no means
weakens their force.
Yet readers of the resolutions can
scarcely avoid noting one circum
stance marking them. The Gov
ernor's plan" is indorsed, but there
IS no explanation or syllabus of the
plan. Nothing along this line is at
tempted. A similar omission having
characterized other Endorsements, it
is perhaps permissible to examine
what Is the exact force and point of
the resolutions.
1t would seem that what is in
dorsed is not so much a plan as a
method of procedure for maturing
one. AS near as can be made out,
what the Governor proposes is, first,
to appoint a commission to ascertain
what should be done, and, secossd.
when this is ascertained, that the
commission is to act in accord with
it's judgment.
Thus nothing in the way of a plan.
in any exact sense, is before either
the public or the Legislature. The
Governor has declared that he does
not know whether fares should be
increased or decreased; that he does
not know whether, pending a final
decision, there should be an emer-
Ssf1y increase OK decreases thas he
New-York tribune., 1921-02-19

Let no one suppose that the job
Of aid and watchdog which the late
Lieutenant Kennel occupied at the
Mayors Office these many years was
sinecure. Outwardly smooth and
calm was this discriminating police
man. Mayors came and went; he
stayed on, unruffiing and unruffled.
For he possessed in rare degree that
sensitive and discriminating talent
which characterizes that most es-
sential of all tribes, the tribe of
Achates.
A varied array of personalities
occupied the Mayors chair during
the Kennel regime. Among the
eight heads Of the city government
was every shade of political faith,
every temperament, every grade of
ability. A bodyguard is highly
personal officer, and it seems as if
each of these contrasting personali-
ties would have desired his own ap-
pointee. That they all insisted upon
"Bill" Kennels remaining was
striking testimony both to his ability
in steering away cranks and to his
adaptability.
We shudder to think what any
great man would do without his
faithful Achates, his man Friday,
and especially that modern combina-
ton of most of the ancient aids
and protectors, the private secre-
tary. Some day, in another world
where the parts and lines and plot
can be shifted for experiment, we
suggest that all the great men be
sent to their corners for spell and
the world be run by their aids and
assistants. We have an awful sus
picion that it would run exceedingly
we'll.
