AFFAIRS IN EUROPE

During the past summer Mr.. Edward
A. Filene of Boston made a study-tour
through nine of the principal countries of
Europe Mr.. Fiene is not a politician
nor is he a newspaper correspondent
He IS one of the most prominent ami far
seeing business men in the city of Boston.
Hs made a study tour through nine of the
principal nations of Europe. Here are
his conclusions:
l. Europe needs our surpluses and our
producing ability more than ever before.
2. If we could sell freely to Europe we
could put our unemployed back at work
and have great prosperity
g. But Europe is poor as the result of
the war, and can buy only on long-term
credits.
A Long-term credits are impossible
unless the danger of new wars in Europe
is Jessened and important reductions in
ornaments are brought about.
S. But the reduction of ornaments is
impossible unless there are adequate
guarantees of the protection for which
ornaments are intended.
g. Such guarantees, satisfactory to
the citizens of any nation, cannot be fur
nished except by an association OF ma
tions of which every important sea or
land power is a part. Lack OF co-opera-
ton by any one of the great nations is
fatal
7. Because one great nation, the Unit
ed States, is out of the present assocla-
ton of nations, there are being formed In
Europe today new balances OF power
among the nations.
8. Balances of power are dependent
on military strength, and must result In
new rivalries in armaments.
Q. Therefore if the Washington Con-
fererc ce is really to bring about a reouc-
ton of ornaments, It must furnish the
guarantee of protection necessary before
any large or small nation will effectively
reduce its ornaments.
10. If this guarantee is furnished,
then the strong Balkan nations can de-
vote their power to the development of
their great agricultural wealth and cease
the present economic wars that threaten
TO bring on new military wars.
H. If this guarantee is given, then
France can afford to take the risk OF
Germany strong enough industrlally to
be able to pay the indemnities
2, If the Balkans and France and
Germany are really at peace again, the
outlook for world peace will be good, and
we in the United States will be able to
sell our goods to Europe without undue
risk on long term credits.
13 Selling our surpluses and otheI
goods to Europe will make better de
mand all over the world tor our produc-
ton, and will therefore put our unem-
ployed back at work and bring us great
prosperity.
Peace and prosperity have their price.
| That price is cooperation with the ma
tions of the world for the reduction and
! limitation of ornaments and the stop
/ ping of disastrous economic wars. upon
| the success of the Washington Confer
, ence to bring about such a CO. operation
Co operation effective enough to make
limitation and reduction OF armaments
really safe depend, l believe, the solu-
ton of Americas problem of unempioy-
ment and the restoration of our business
prosperity. And we should make 1t
quite clear to the President and his asso-
ciates at the Conference that we are
ready and willing to pay the price Tor
world peace

OUR HOME MARKET

1t is not a theory,-it is a fact demon
strable by cold figures, that there is no
market in the world at all comparable to
that of the United States When the
working classes of the United States
have steady employment, they live bet
ter than the working classes of any other
country in the world and buy more lioer-
ally of those products which the farmer
furnishes. 1t is a matter of common
knowledge that the American working
man, when he has employment, eats
white bread three times day and red
meat at least once a day,-a diet which
the working classes OF 10 European
country can afford.
Government data issued by the De-
partment of Commerce concluslvely
proves that the price of American farm
products varies, not according to the vol
ume of exports of those products chat Is,
by the amount the American farmer sells
in the foreign markell but by the amount
of those products consumed in the United
States The rise and fall OF farm prices
is in almost direct proportion to the rise
and fall of domestic consumption CT those
products. When American working
classes are proftably employed they are
liberal consumers of farm products and
prices advance. When the working
classes are not employed and they are
compelled to cut down on their living,
the consumption of farm products de-
clines and with the decline of consump-
tion there is decline IN prices.
Nothing would be so fatuous Gin fact IT
would be suicidaD as for the agricultural
interests of this country to align them
selves with the movement fathered and
financed by international bankers, i'm
porting interests and free traders to at
tempt to capture the markets OF the
world by letting the world capture the
mark cts of America.

THE RESPONSIBILITY Y

We wonder what the allied Council will
do with the recommendation of the COM
mission that it appointed last August to
review the German trials of the war Grim
inals. This commission attended to It's
duty and reports that in only two instan-
ces did the trials at Leipzig bring the re-
suits that were justified by the evidence.
1t recommends that the Allies now pro
ceed as 1t is authorized to do under the
Versailles treaty and try the war Offend
ers.
We think that the public sentiment in
the Allied countries favors the punish
ment of those Germans who used the war
as a cover for criminal acts.-Bangor
ComI.
The Allied Commission do just what it
has done in other matters. Its members
will SIT tight and draw good salaries
nothing more.

THE EMBATTLED FARMERS.

The farmer is and always has been the
cornerstone of this Republic, says the

is well nigh the whole foundation, in TACT
pretty much the edlilce. II was the farm
ers who made the Thirteen Colonies, de-
creed independence, wrote the Constitu-
tion, developed the country, and VINO To-
day will save our institutions and perpet-
uate the Nation when he fully understands
the issue and is able to clear himself OF
the traps set for him by plausible rascals.
The farmer is natural conservative.
He is the natural American as well as the
original one. and he utill constitutes the
court of last appeal in this country.
Early legislation was largely In tie
farmers interest, and established hlm as
the main estate of our free republican
realm The homestead law determined the
character of all our West pretty much
from the Appalschians to the Pacific
SO well provided for was the farmer,
both by nature and by law, that he has
not been demanding much since the CIVIL
War. True, passing conditions have at
times urged him to take up with pana-
ceas designed TO cure railroads or mort
cages or mlddlemen, but for himself and
his status the farmer has not been de-
He ought to have some things, never
theless. AS a political and economic IN
vestment no government can do better
than to legislate to keep the farmer on
the soil, to keep the land in the working
farmers possession, to foster the farm
er's welfare, provide for his education,
consider his convenience. cherish nm as
an individual and promote the interests
of his class
The farmer is the one indispensable
unit for republic. 1t was the American
farmer who really curbed American ousl-
ness when it had grown obstreperous IL

LhNINE'S SCEHME.
Bangor Commercial.

1t is difficult to understand Just what
the Allied Council expects to accomplish
by the inclusion of Russia in the confer
ence a Genoa. Russia under its present
rule is outside the pale That any agree
ment can he resche with Lenine that
would be kept it is impossible to believe
Any attempt to reach such appears to US
to be a waste of time and that is evident
ly what the administration of the United
States believes
Russia has accepted the invitation to
be represented at Genoa. That was to be
expected, but the participation will con-
slst of submitting impossible and pre-
posterous claims TO the conference. 1t Is
now reported that he,Soviet COVER iment
at Moscow is now engaged in preparing
bill against the Allies that will ask Tor
indemnity for the various costs to Russia
of the different revolutions against the
Soviet government, on the ground that
they were encouraged and ASSISTED by the
Allies.
There is no reason to believe that I.e-
nine has any belief that the Allies will
honor such a ridiculous bill. He well
knows that they will not, but the bill
will be framed in offset to the claims OF
Allied countries against the government
OF Russia for loans made under the ad-
minstration of the cZar. Lenine mas
promised to pay these bills and has also
repudiated them. The promise to pay
was most recent. The lack of payment
is one of the greatest factors that stands
in the way of the recognition of the So
Wet government. And so Lenine pro-
poses to offer a bill in offset, doubtless
with the hope of delaying payment and
at the same time securing recognition
upon a promise of adjustment. 1t is a
plan that will not succeed.
