German Finances.
Why SHINES Is Seeking an Eco.
nomic Union With France.

To THE NEW YoEK HERALD The Ger
man Government Is bankrupt. OF that
there can be no doubt. 1t has virtually
filed petition in voluntary bankruptcy
and requested a postponement OF exc
cution as we'll as a revision or its In
debtedness. Germany's industries. how
ever. are flourishing, her workmen busy
and her export trade is excellent.
This is an anomaly. almost as singular
an anomaly as Mr.. Wilson's statement
when we entered the war that we were
fighting the German Government and
not the German people. Theory and
practice In thin instance failed TO agree,
for it Was only by killing many thou
sand German people that we finally
killed the Government.
1t is a common error that the sol
voncy or nation depends upon the
amount OF gold It holds. The solvency
OF a country, just as Of an individual.
depends upon its credit. It's paper
money lis merely a promise to pay--its
note OF hand The trouble with Ger
many as natiof to-day Is that her
credit is gone.
Tt fell with the mounting excess OF
her liabilities over her assets. The as
sets or q Government are the taxable
limit OF the nations taxable wealth.
The rcparations and Indemnity bill was
so greatly in excess or this that foreign
nations refused to accept her currency
at face value and the mark began 10
fall. Even in this country our bonds
fcil far below par with tho enormous
increase Of our liabilities. Although the
credit OF the Government WAS not
shaken. 1t was strained. When conf
ticnce was restored, the bonds advanced
TO par.
The Appreciation or the mark was un-
donbtedIy deliberately accelerated by
the industrial barons headed By SHINES,
who virtually took over the rcins OF
Eovcrnment when the Emperor fed. This
depreciation Was encouraged for two
reasons to impress The creditor nations
with Germanys poverty aud consequent
inability TO pay and thereby to obtain
a reduction OF The debt, and, in addi-
fion, to enable Stinnos and the indus
trial maGnatcs to reap golden harvest
By rcllng In a foreign market where
exchange was high the products or labor
paid III a depreciatcd currency-riotins
in cheap labor at home and high mar
lect abroad.
Up to n certain point SHINES and his
ceadiu;ors reveled In rush OF wealth
But unfortunately the movement got out
OF hand and the mark suddenly and un-
expectcdly entered upon steep descent.

Fuel Going to Waste.
Corncobs and other Refuse Could
BE Burned i'm tho Kitchen.

To THE New York ilErA1D; During
the fuel shortage thrifty housewives
would do well to save corncobs. which
make excellent fuel after being dried
out in the air or the sun.
Going a step further ] would suggest
IN view of tho shortage Of coal that
garbage be burned, as it can be in
any kind of kitchen stove, instead OF
setting II out on the sidewalk for the
city to remove. Frebrick has to be
renewed in nearly every stove every four
or Ave years regardless OF whether gar
bage is burned in it or not. so the
busning Of the kitchen refuse would
not make any difference SO far as wear
ing out the stove lining Is concerned.

CROSS SHINES AGAIN
Throngs Worship in Belief That
Miracle Has Been Wrought.
Soviet Leaders Force Priests of Rost-
off Cathedral to Say That Gliding
on Church Was Due to Wire
less Action.

LondOn.-An interesting tale comes
to me from the city of Rostoff on the
Don, In soviet Russia, writes O CORE
spondent to the Daily Telegraph.
1t will need some explaining on the
part of our men of science, and l
would not have mentioned it If the
official soviet press had not done so.
One morning citizens going at sunrise
TO attend early divine service in the
great cathedral were surprised to see
the cross on the cathedral dome
sparkling as If it had been newly gilt.
The golden crosses and cupoias of the
Russian churches are a we'll known
landmark, but, neglected under the
Bolshevik regime, they have all be-
come dull and furnished The great
cross on the cathedral blazed, while
the crosses on the small cupolas sur
rounding it remained dark. The peo-
pie cried that q miracle had occurred
From all parts of the town crowds
precipitated themselves toward the
market place. Very soon the cathedral
was full to overlooking, and thousands
Of wax candles before the icons lit up
its dark interior. People continued to
arrive, filling up the market place.
The great house occupied by the
Cheka was just opposite. The Red
sentries became apprehensive Of an at
tack and called out the guard. The
Red soldiers came forward to dispense
the faithful, but they were over
whelmed and forced to take off their
caps and make the sign of the cross.
Cavalry arrived and re-established
order with their heavy whips.
The clergy Of the cathedral were ar
rested, brought into the Cheka build
ing and, under menace Of DEATH or
dered to stop the miracle immediate
ly. This the poor fellows naturally
could not do. At last one of them had
a brilliant idea, of which the leaders
of the Cheka approved. The town was
placarded with large notices explain |
ing to the population that the gliding !

Of the renewal of the cross is con-

THE FARMER MEETING HIS
OBLIGATION

THE FARMER MEETING HIS
OBLIGATION
1.-THE farmers have not created dis
orders They have kept on producing
and in the face of extraordinary low
prices, have this year grown one OF
the largest crops in our entire his
tory. The farmer believes in gov
eminent. He believes in fairness be-
tween man and man. He believes in
working hard and producing effic-
iently."
The above is from recent address
by Secretary of Agriculture Wallace
and contains a world of truth. He
remarks further:
eff other groups would do as the
would soon be over. Prices would
soon be adjusted to their normal re
lationship There would be work for
everybody and at just wages"
Of all the elements in the American
population the farmers were the
hardest hit in the process of defla-
ton, which was unavoidable. Num-
boring almost one-third of the en-
tire population, they have borne al
together the heaviest burden since
the fall of 1920 The purchasing
power of wages in various important
lines of industry was much greater in
1921 than in 1913, before the war,
while the purchasing power of the
farmers dollar was much less.
Most of the economic troubles we
have encountered in the past two
years are due to the fact that so many
elements in our population refuse to
meet their obligations as the farmer
does They jeopardize their own in
terests and the interests of the en-
tire nation by strikes, refusing to do
things which they are morally obli-
gated to do
There is much talk, as the cam
paign progresses, about the so-called
independent vote, and which way it
will turn. AS a matter of fact, the
entire vote is fairly independent. Men
as rule, are republicans or demo-
Gratis because of some fundamental
principle or principles upon which the
party bases its right to exist. The
voter gives his support to the party
which stands for the things which
he considers are for the best inter
ests of the people as whole, and not
because any party whip is cracked.
1t would be hard to visualize citizens
of Latah county or of Idaho, voting
anything but Independently and when
the vote is counted it can safely be
said that the winning party laid be-
fore the voters a program which ap-
pealed to the good judgment of the
majority. A majority party is a ma
jority party because the things for
which it stands are the things which
appeal to the majority of the voters. |
The voters are independent thinkers,
as rule, and are perfectly capable
of wedding out the buncomb.
Seattle can claim the distinction of
having the largest church in the great
denomination. The First
church In that city, of
which Dr. Mathews has been the pas
or for many years, has q membership
Il 1906. The second largest, accord
ng to figures just made public, is the
central church of Brooklyn, with al
most 1000 The remarkable growth
# the Seattle church is largely due
o the personality of DR.. Mathews, t
nd his exceptional ability as an or
.anizer. So marked has been his sue I
ess that he stands out as a national
eader in church work in the, United
tates.

That the need for such aid was real
in all OF these homes was ascer-
tained through investigation by the
humane society workers.
The actual difference between life
and starvation was often spelled
with milk. A widow with six chill
dren, all young and dependent upon
what she earned over the washboard
and with the scrubbrush. was en-
abled to straggle successfully
through the summer only by an
adequate supply OF milk, ice-sweet.

operations. Her young sister also

mother employed here we're unable

In number of typhoid cases milk
and ice proved a veritable God

family where the three breadwin-
ners, father and two older sons,
were stricken. and in another in

A. NJ. Welch said yesterday, but deep

pressed by those so aided. The
work is continuing, on a smaller
