A Debtors Alliance

Germany and Russia are busy
seeking new ways to pay old debts.
Not paying them at all is the way
both would like best to take. Pend
ing further progress in that direc-
ton they have made treaty which
cancels outstanding claims which
either signatory may have against
the other.
Both sets Of claims are practically
worthless, for neither country
would think Of paying the other ex-
cept in stage money. But the two
debtors are glad to indulge in an in
expensive gesture of debt cancela-
ton, hoping that it may have a
moral effect on real creditor nations
which would find a similar gesture
a good deal more costly.
The mutual sponging off Of Ger
man Russian PREPARATION claims is
window-dresslng. The zeal purpose
Of the treaty Is to exotic Western
European fears that Germany will
secure a preferred position in the
Russian market. In that German
diplomacy is at its subtlest. The
Russian market Is nullity. No out
slider can trade there unless he is
willing to sell on credit Of pre-
carious sort. Yet the Soviet dan
giles concessions before the eyes Of
Western spectators and investors.
The Germans wish to excite jealousy
by seeming to get into the Russian
field ahead Of other nations.
This advantage, however, is worth
nothing to the Germans except on
the theory that Hugo SHINES and
other German capitalists are able
to rush vast amounts of capital into
naked Russia. Yet if Germany has
these vast sums to spare-if she is
in fact preparing to grow rich BY
exploiting Russia with her surplus
resources-what becomes of Ger
many's plea that she is on the brink
Of insolvency, that she cannot pav
reparations, that she cannot balance
her budget or impose adequate taxes
on her citizens?
The Russo-German debtors al
nance is therefore either a fiction or
a fraud. If Germany actually cant
make payments on reparations she
isn't in a position to exploit Russia
If she is in a position to grow fat
eventually by exploiting Russia.
hazarding an enormous capital in
the process, she is able to keep on
paying her debts.
Ichltcherin and Rathenau are trv-
ing to stampede the Genoa confer
ence. But there is no real powder
in the Rapallo treaty fireworks.

Bases for Recognition

In the judgment of many the
Dickinson articles, whose publica-
ton in The Tribune was yesterday
completed, constitute the most valu-
able of recent contributions to the
discussion Of Russian affairs.
Mr. Dickinson, besides his special
opportunity to observe at first hand,
is able to see and think straight.
He possesses to a remarkable de-
gree sense Of fairness and a sense
of proportion. An intelligent liberal
himself, every consideration that can
be urged in justification of the
Lenine government has received re-
spectful consideration and analysis.
In his concluding article Mr..
Dickinson discusses the practical
questions of how our people can best
aid Russia and on what terms it
u possible to recognize any de focto
Russian government. He dismisses
as promising little or nothing the
Genoa program.
He holds that the essential is a
change in the character of the Rus
sian government. He would have it
give freedom to press and opinion,
free elections, free national as
sembly and acknowledgment of the
lnvlolability Of private property and
of the fruits of personal toll.
These things done, he believes that
formal recognition would follow as
a matter of routine, and the inter
national bankers would have a basis
on which to build reciprocally ad-
vantageous trade relations.
VIII the present Russian regime
not merely verbally pledge these
things but help do them? Mr..
Dickinson thinks it may if diplo-
matte effort is conferred on them. 1t
is in desperate plight. Its leaders
know what the facts are, even
though they labor to keep the world
from knowing them.
At favorable time Mr.. Hughes,
perhaps, will he able to launch a
policy along these lines. If he is able
the policy will be doubly agreeable to
our people. 1t will be in accord with
American principles and at the same
time hold out hope Of being definitely
useful to Russia.

An Institutions Decay

What has killed the Easter parade?
1t has become as artificial and as
lifeless as complexion that is bought
in bottle.
Golf, baseball and outdoor sports
of all kinds have furnished the bow
and arrow. The habit of owning
country homes and of going away
to the beaches has contributed to
the sad end. That enforced modesty
which too much publicity of a dis
agreeable kind has developed among
the we'll known has added its deter
rents.
No one would walk up and down
and make show of ones self unless
there are impressed admirers. Gone
are the respectful applauders of
elder days. The greater diffusion
Of wealth makes the Avenue feel on
its back the hot breath of competing
Fourteenth Street. Why bother to
dress and try to show off? The
Joy is gone from spring clothes
when you are merely ore Of a crowd.
The old beau Is no more-only
few last leaves survive on the trees.
So farewell to the shiny topper, the
skirted coat, the cane and the spats,
and the buttonhole gardenia. In this
age Of Standardization there is moth
ing interesting 20 cape at and to
envy e little.

still fingers in the back country,
even as the tradition of the Bowery
fingered long after they ceased to
say such things and do such things
there. Clever publications. it is true,
attract large circulations by describ
ing New York life not as it is but as
outsiders think it is. But finally
truth gets accepted. So it will be
as to Fifth Avenue; and even fiction
writer's drop the convention of hav-
ing hero and heroine meet on its
pavements while all around are ia
miliar acquaintances. Alas the
usual fate is to stalk along for a
mile or two without exchanging
salutations with a single recognized
face.

Still Boring From Within"

The National Civic Federation
calls attention to recent develop
ments in Mr.. ". Z. Fosters cam
,paign to wreck the railroad unions
and the American Federation of
Labor. Mr.. Foster, it says, paid
visit to lenine last year, and after
his return to this country started an
intensive attack on the railroad
brotherhoods and the other existing
organizations of railroad workers.
, The Foster plan involves a dis
handment of craft unions and the
substitution Of industry unions. This
amalgamation would increase the
political power of union leaders but
take them out Of touch with the
crafts IN which they were trained.
Mr.. Foster, however, is looking
chiefly for political results. He
wants to make the unions militant
militant, that is, for purposes be-
yond the scope of the personal inter
ests Of the workers. He appeals only
to "rebel" unionists and excludes from
the organization which he is form
ing within the railroad unions all
men who will not subscribe to his
personal organ, "The Labor Herald"
and who cannot satisfy a commit
tee Of organizers that they are in
sympathy with his boring from
within" work.
Mr. Fosters "syndicalist" sym
psthies were exposed at the time he
was conducting tho steel workers
strike. He mas been represented
since as convert to established
trade anionism. But his circulars
&c the "rebel" e,emen. in The rail
ROAD unions indicate that he still is
hostile to American trade unioaisn'

The Other Fellows Money

After saying that his computa-
tions show that the railroads need
SASH 100000 in new capital, W.
Jett Lauck, an expert of bizarre
ideas to whom the railway unions
go for economic counsel, says:
1--WE do not agree with the railroad
executives that this requisite capital
is practically unobtanable We be-
leve that 1t is the duty of the bank
ing group which controls the railroads
to produce this required credit or
capital
AS a thrifty person Mr.. Lauck
doubtless has something laid by.
Does he propose to lend it to the
railroads. He does not so declare.
Most railroad employees have saw
ings accounts. Does Brother Lauck
urge them to buy railroad bonds?
Not so far as is known.
No, it's the duty of banking groups
to produce. Mr.. Lauck nobly ig-
nores the fact that bank must get
it's funds from investors who must
be individually persuaded.
Spending another fellows money
is an agreeable pastime. 1t is much
the vogue among Lauckian econ
omists.

The High School Fraternities

IN AA9AS A|~aAOoA sSAS%A
To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: There is much discussion over
the question of recognition Of school
secret societies by the Board of Edu-
cation. 1t seems to be the opinion Of
the majority of those interested in
this question that the fraternities
should be recognized.
1t is fact that with the slight APP
prevail given by some members of the
faculty in the high schools the frater-
mites develop so as 10 become an as
set rather than liability to the
school. 1t is in these fraternities that
we find the best workers in the school.
They work for the school not with the
idea of bringing honor and power to
their fraternity but with the idea of
rendering service to their alma mater,
The fraternity Of to-day is different
from that of yesterday in the fact that
its members really live up to the ideals
set forth in it's constitution and ritual.

bOORS By Percy Hammond


Harry Leon Wilson's description Of
the film stricken Merton, in Merton
Of the Movies" is a complete and
satisfactory assemblage of all the
dreams, ambitions and ardors common
to the determined aspirant to glory in
what Mr. Wilson calls che jumping
tin-types."
The camera, to young Merton, is "idol
saint, virgin, prophet. crescent and
cross" and he to it rigid zealot, pale
with worshippng. Every move he
makes in Gashwiler's Simsbury en-
porium, where he is a salesperson, is
addressed to an imaginary lens and is
recorded in his visions. He entities
himself "Cliford Armytage," and is
happest when, cast as Buck Benson, he
rescues Estelltl St. Clair after she has
5traved from the Fordyce ranch into
the power Of Snake lie Vasquez, the
half breed outlaw, who BODIES her no
good. He throws the Gashwiler
dummies around in frenzies of his
trionism, and mystifes old Dexter, the
Gashwiler delivery horse, by such
pathetic remarks as this: "Well, Pinto.
old pal, they're takin' yuh from me,
but we got to keep stiff upper lip"
While painting the Gashwiler bulletin
board with "Try our choice Honey-dew
spinach, 20 cents the can Merton Is
muttering to himself: "Be on the lot at
sharp tomorrow to shoot some
Western stuff" Gashwiler doesn't
care much for the $50 cents the can"
:dea, regarding the "the" as putting on
airs. Say "a cam not the cam" he
instructs Merton, which is Mr. Wilson
making fun, perhaps, of his publisher,
THE Saturday Evening Post"
which advertises itself as five cents
the copy"
In Merton's most sacred stained win
dow is Beulah Baxter, who in "The
Hazards of Hortense" strives, at the
risk of her life, to do worthy things
worthily. She is of the finer and the
better type. Another shrine is Harold
Parmalee. the world favorite Merton
enjoys himself in visions of an inter
view with the ecstatic Miss Augusta
Blivens, telling her, while playing
Chopin prelude, that his wife Is his
best pal, and adding that also she is
mis- severest critic. Merton is bit
perplexed as to where to receive Miss
Blivens-in his library, surrounded by
his books; in his music room, or on
the lawn, romping with his giant police
dogs. ooh. God" he prays at night,

A Senatorial bud

Certain patriotic persons are dis
been communicating directly with
Messrs. Lloyd George, Tchitcherin
and Wirth at Genoa and has freely
given them his advice. Such action,
they say, hampers the legitimate
conduct Of our foreign relations, and
the Senator should be enjoined
Were the charge made against
any Senator other than France 1t
might be serious. Despite the ir-
regularity and perhaps even the
illegality Of such intercourse, it
might we'll have interfered with our
foreign relations. The title "United
States Senator" is something to
conjure with-abroad. Messrs. Lloyd
George, Tchitcherin and Wirth might
have given an ear to any other
Senator. But Tchitcherin met
France In Moscow-knows the gen
tleman. Wirth surely heard from
him as he passed through Berlin.
Lloyd George, it is to be presumed,
is not unnformed about him.
Senator France is too well known
to be dangerous. To ende~vor to
hush him implies that he has the
power to do harm, and 20 try to
reform him Is to undertake an i'm
possibility. Cannot the old proverb
be applied TO the Senator, that even
though he be brayed in a mortar
among wheat with a pestle, yet will
not his foolishness depart from him?

Ramabai and Candhi

The death Of the Pundita Ramabai
suggests striking example of the
so-called irony of fate. Gandhi was
arrested, tried and sent to prison,
and was greatly exploited in the
news Of the day, while at almost
precisely the same time the pundita
died, and the fact was scarcely 50
much as mentioned in the press.
Yet 1t Is by no means improbable
that the Judgment of history NAV
be that she is entitled to far more
attention and remembrance than
he is.
At the time of her memorable
VISIT to America a generation ago
admirers hailed her as "the greatest
woman in Indian history" A Brah-
MN with a thousand years Of high
caste ancestry and so great a scholar
that she received from the Uni.
Verslty of Calcutta the degree of
SarasVati, never before conferred
upon woman, she ignored, for the
good Of the women Of India, the laws
OF caste, mingled freely with all
people, and even crossed the seas "a
enlist the sympathies of FOREIGN
nations in her cause.
She opened the doors of hjchor
education to women in India and
redeemed them from the blightine
curse OF the enforced child-widow-
hood system. This she did, too with
out antagonizing the creed of her
ancestors, for her rare scholarship
made her able to show that child
wldowhood, like the atrocious prac-
1ice OF suttee, was not enjoined nor
intended by the founders Of tho
Hindu religion, but was a compara-
lively modern thing, corruption
due to a gross misinterpretation of
the sacred books.
Between her and Gandhi there are
chiefly striking contrasts. He urges
absolute non-co-operation with the
british, even in works obviously for
The good of the people; she earnestly
stroVe to promote cooperation of all
for the welfare of all. He would
renounce all the inventions and
achievements Of European civiliza-
ton and turn India back to the
primitive condition which prevailed
before the conquest; she sought
to make even more general the use
OF every appliance that could I'M
prove The conditions of life. He re.
jects christianity; she cordially &C
ceoted it. His work is essentially
agitation against the thiugn~ thar

Promises Fulfilled

There is the same difference be-
. tween Governor Miller's summary of
the work Of the Legislature and the
average political manifesto as there
= s between 8 man who boasts Of what
he Is going to do and the man who
quietly tells about what he has
actually done. There Is no buncombe
or demagogy about the statement. Il
is like the report of an able business
executive to a "hard-boiled" board
Of directors.
The Governor calls attention to
the following accomplishments, not
all Of which were promised in the
party platform; A constructive and
successful effort to solve the trac-
ton problem in New York City; real
laws to promote social welfare;
p creation of adequate machinery to
develop the Port of New York; the
elimination Of useless bureaus; plans
for the development OF the state
water power system.
The Governor does not unduly
stress the fact that the legislatures
Of 192O-'21 and Of 1922 have de-
creased the expenses Of the state
government by $11,500,000. Impor-
tant as is this saving, it is not so
important as the constructive work
which has been carried out under
his direction,
Any executive by refusing to sign
appropriation bills can cut down ex-
penses. Only man who combines
judgment and experience can make
heavy cuts without impairing the
usefulness Of the government.
Governor Miller's administration
viii be remembered as an econom-
ical administration and as an ad-
ministration of valuable accomplish
?. ment as well, In no case has money
. needed for the extension of neces-
sary activities been withheld.
Waste, however, was eliminated so
far a s possible. When two men were
found doing the same job one of
them was cut off the pay roll. When
two Offices We're doing the same
work one of them was dispensed
with. That is the sort of thing that
makes a state or a business concern
q prosperous institution.
The Governor could, without self
glorifcation have taken to himself
more credit for what was done than
ne chose to take. His was the d.
recting hand at Albany. Most of
the measures he refers to were
initiated in his messages.
He is content, however, to point tc
the record and let it go at that. He
has not been disturbed by the crit
icism which, because he chooses tc
do rather than to advertise in ad-
vance, has presented him as a stub
born and impossible reactionary.

More Truth Than Poetry
By James ]. Montague
Poetry for the People

You got to keep on smilin',
However hard the way,
Although you're shy the cash to
buy
Your three square meals a day.
You may have ketched the
measles,
Or else, perhaps, the humps,
But just the same you must be
game
An never git the dumps.
A glum an gloomy spirit
The brightest life kin spile;
No matter what complaint you've
You've always got to smile.
You got TO keep on smihn'
An never heave sob,
Or pull moan or spill a groan
When you have lost your job.
II wife and kids have left you
Don't never shed a tear;
Be gay an glad as eff you had
A heart plumb full o. cheer.
Remember, livin' single
Amt sech an awful trial
The clouds you'll find is silver
lined
If only you can smile.
You got to keep on smilin'-
There S no sech word as fail
Though by mistake the laws YOU
break
And get shet I'D in Jail.
An, even eff they hang you
The rope won't hurt you long;
so while you wait to meet your
fate
Just sing little song.
Keep readin' smilin' poems
They make hard luck worth
while.
one recompense for lackin' sense
is learnln' how to smile!
