KEEPING THE PLEDGE TO THE VETS.

LLVVTE hold mperishable remembrance" the Repub-

fought in the great for human liberty and we pledge

Let MS see how well that pledge has been discharged.

ture up to 30 1871 s27i52is93 including s250ooOOoO
for a soldiers bonus.
Appropriations have been for the fiscal year end

ending June 30 1923 The total estimated expenditures
for soldier relief for the two years is follows: 1922,
sii2S7s7ii; 1923 si56O2i979.
In other words, there has been appropriated by the
Federal the relief OF soldiers Of the World

acted a number of laws granting special privileges on

The Foreign Debts
CFrom the Washington Post. ]

II as now appears probable. Dem
ocrauc Senators should organize a
filibuster against the bill providing
for the funding OF the foreign debts
they will have difficulty in justitying
their course before the American
people. Adjustment OF these debts
already has been too long delayed
and there can be no reasonable ex-
cuse for further postponement.
Opposition seems to be based upon
the action Of the Finance Commit
tee in rejecting certain amendments
which would have restricted the
board in making settlements with
debtor nations. including minimum
interest charges and time OF interest
payments, and forbidding the can
collation. OF any part Of the debt.
These conditions were considered
unnecessary and therefore we're
omitted, but the fact that they have
been left out does not by any means
constitute grounds for defeating the
bill.
In its present form, the measure
provides for the appointment OF a
commission OF five members. OF
which the Secretary Of the Treasury
shall be chairman. 10 adjust the

alarm Senators Of either party This
enormous sum OF money was loaned
to foreign governments by the Sec
retary of the Treasury acting under
the instructions of the President. II
Congress could trust the President
and his Secretary OF the Treasury
with authority TO lend the money. it
surely should be willing to trust the
President and a commission of five
with the power to arrange terms for
its repayment.
The demand for prompt adjust
ment OF the foreign debts is en-
phatic, since payments upon their
account are to be utilized in meet
ing the expense OF the soldiers
bonus soon TO be enacted. 1t is pro-
posed that the initial payments to
the soldiers shall be met by taxation
but that the income from interest
or principal on account OF tke for
eign debt should be devoted to the
bonus payments. Consequently, de-
lay in passage OF the funding bill
means additional taxation Of the
people.
Senate leaders should take deci-
sive steps to counteract any filibus-
ter designs against this bill because
every day of delay imposes addi-
tional liabilities upon the taxpayers.

A couple OF months ago Chancel-
lor Wirth told the Reparation Com
mission that Germany could not
pay the reparation installments for
1922. The commission took this
statement with a large grain OF salt.
1t asked the Chancellor why the
German budget hadn't been bal
anced, why the huge bread subsidy
was continued, why the state rail-
roads were being run at a heavy
loss. why German capital was al
lowed to hide abroad and why Ger
man taxation was far lower than
French or British taxation. The
French tax per capita, for instance,
is $45.62. The German is only
s1S.SS. Freight charges in France
for etn tons carried 1000 kilo-
meters are s17S.50. In Germany
they are only $50.
Chancellor Wirth now answers
these questions partially. He says
that the internal budget will be bal
anced, that railroad rates and taxes
will be raised, that the bread sub
sidy will be reduced and that an in
ternal billion mark gold loan will be
fioated. He thus admits that his
plea for leniency months ago was
not well founded. He confesses that
Germany can pay more that she has
been paying. Nevertheless he again

The Real H1pedin1ent
(From the New York Tribune)

asks for concession on the repara-
tions due this year.
German importunities are always
based on an alleged inability to pay.
The Reich would have the Allies be-
lieve that this inability is physical
and economic. But the truth is that
it is moral. Germany has no real
inclination to meet her treaty obli-
cations. She is more recalcitrant
than she Is insolvent.
Herr Wirth said the other day, in
presenting his excuses for delayed
reparation payments, that no Ger
man government would think of de-
livering up the German war crimi-
nails. These criminals were largely
instrumental in fastening war dam
ages on the German people. They can
be delivered at a negligible cost. But
a government which grumbles about
settling for the outrages they COM
mitted is ready to defy the Allies
and bring new penalties on Germany
in order to avoid surrendering them.
Here the true German attitude
toward the fulfillment OF treaty OBJ
legations is revealed. II Is one of
unrepentant resistance. Good faith
is scandalously lacking. The eco
nomic impediment is constantly en-
larged upon as a means Of attract
ing foreign sympathy. But the real
impediment is moral. II is more in
need of being enlarged upon.
