The Board of Education has taken the proper steps IN

estimate for modern school building for ubercnlar
white children of this city If the Commissioners are able
to obtain appropriation in the next efficiency BILL
siderable progress will have been made in rectfying
serious and nhuman blunder in requiring the sick little

And Congress should go step further than to pro-
vide building Sanitation, fresh air and kindly at
tentions alone will not put pale cheeks
Congress appropriate sufficient money to make the
new school model fo the world in the education and treat
ment of tubercuar children. The Medical Society of tho
District should urge that the project shall be real step
forward. Humanitarans everywhere will join the ply
sicians in this demand.
The Public Health Service the District Health De-
parmen should be placed in charge of the treatment OF
the children with the most skilled physician required to
take supervision.
This physician should be authorized to purchase and
supply free to the pupils each day at luncheon hour the

ARUCH of the scandal attaching

of the Eighteenth Amend
ment might be averted if the Vol
stead act or the concurrent local
acts to the same end, were so
amended as to provide for the i'm
mediate destruction of seized liquor
at the point of seizure.
Enforcement is far more general
than the wholly discreditable condi-
tions now prevailing in New York
would indicate. Throughout the
greater part of the nation violations
of this law are not more common
than violations of other sections of
the moral code. The unofficial
agency chiefly interested in prohi-
bition reported last week as the re-
suit of an exhaustive survey that
in 80 per cent of the country enforce

THE proposal that Belgium be al
lowed to pay the debt she owes

us in German indemnity bonds
instead of Belgian bonds or cash is
another trick of these foreign debt
dodgers.
There isn't much likelihood that
either England or France will pay
what they owe us, but they would
much prefer to go through the mo-
tons of paying with worthless Ger
man indemnity bonds than to repu-
diate their just debts openly and
without disguise.
The first attempt of the Allies to
get out of paying us was direct
appeal to Mr.. Wilson, at the time
when the British and French still
thought that individual was really
the whole Government of the United
States.
There is little doubt that Mr..
Wilson encouraged the Allied bOr-
rowers to believe that he would have
the United States cancel the loans
made to them.
Mr.. Wilson, of course, could do
no such thing, and the Allied debtors
soon found that out.
So, then, over came Sir George
Paish, with the second trick up his
sleeve, which was the Allied debt
dodgers proposal that the League
of Nations issue bonds to the amount
of thirty billion dollars to pay Ger
many's indemnity to the Allies, and
! that the United States guarantee
these bonds.
The Hearst papers met Sir George
Paish when he landed with full ex-
posure of this debt-dodging trick,
and it never even began to work.
The third trick was press prop
aganda in the open, and diplomatic
proposals in secret, that the United
States agree to cancel England s in
debtedness, while England should
cancel the Indebtedness of France
and other Allied governments to
EngldnO.
AS the money loaned by England
to the other belligerents was first
borrowed from the United States,
tthis proposal, stripped of its dis
guise, was simply that we cancel all
our loans made to England directly
and to the other governments indi-
rectly.
Nobody stood to lose anything ex-
cept the United States. England s
noble generosity really consisted in
agreeing to give her allies our
money.
! That trick was so thoroughly eX-
posed, chiefly by the Hearst press,
that it died at birth.
And now comes another trick.

THE NATIONAL DAILY
More ManeuUering to Get
Out of Paying Those Debts

bunko-operators call the "come-on."
We are to be attacked upon
sentimental side.
All the agencies of propaganda will
soon be filling columns of print with
doleful stories of Belgium's suffer
ings and sacrifices. And we shall
be adjured not to insist upon strict
bargain with a heroic people who
saved civilization and who returned
to ravaged and devastated coun-
try, which is just beginning to
struggle 10 its feet after four years
of savage domination and destruc-
ton.
This drive against our national
credulity and sentimentaity is go
ing to paint very false pictures of
non-existent Belgian woes and mis-
cries and poverty, in order to excite
a popular sentiment in favor of set
ting Begium's s indebtedness to us
with worthless indemnity bonds.
And the moment we are senti-
mentally foolish enough to do that
silly thing, we shall have England
and France and the whole raft of
debt-dodgers clamoring that they
suffered far more than Belgium did,
that they are proportionately far
worse off than Belgium is-which
is true, too-and that therefore we
ought to take the same worthless
German indemnity bonds from
THEM in payment of THEIR debts.
In blunt, truthful words, this SEN
timental appeal on behalf of Belgium
is merely the camoufage of an Allied
drive against our National Treasury
is merely the first step toward the
final object of unloading THE PAY
MENT of the indemnity imposed on
bankrupt Germany UPON THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE.
The new Administration must
surely see what this new debt-dodg
ing trick really means. And there
must surely be enough good Amer
leans in the Congress to prevent this
proposed unloading of the German
indemnity upon our people.
We certainly did enough for the
allies when we turned their sure de-
feat into the victory they could
never have won.
1t is altogether. too much to ex-
pect that we should now rob our
people to enrich European govern
ments which have neither the hu-
manity nor the craftsmanship to
quit their bloody work of war-making
who are still maintaining and
marcing armies and expeditions
across three-fourths of Europe's
soil.
the cities of New Jersey is by no
means typical of the situation in
the nation at large.
In many cities, however, where
vigorous efforts are at least ostensi-
bly, made to suppress the illicit
traffic, the police and the prohibition
agents themselves are under suspi-
cion of illegally disposing of the
liquor they have seized. In New
York, Washington and lesser towns
this charge is continually advanced
and is pressed with the more vigor
by opponents of prohibition, who
see that, as it gains currency, the
officials charged with enforcement
of the law will be brought into
disrepute.
The practice itself and the asser-
tions, sometimes baseless, that it is
common would be promptly stopped
were the law to demand that all
liquor seized shall be Immediately
