GENERAL LEONARD WOOD is still
~ in the Philippines.
The University Of Pennsylvania authori-
ties are stu in state Of mental perturba-
tion as q result.
1t is possible tho fact has been overlooked
that the general is something of an educa .
tional reorganizer. which was demonstrated
while he was Governor General Of Cuba,
twenty three years ago.
His work In the Philippines In 1922 is
equally as important as IL not more so than,
was his work in the Pearl Of the Antilles. y
After the lapse of nearly a quarter Of a
century the Philippines are getting a much
needed inspection. not to say house clean
ing, at the generals hands.
Cuba in 1900 had just emerged from the
smoke Of battle and centuries Of Spanish
mismanagement, and his task was more
arduous.
And yet in the brief zine Of his command
he perfected one of the most complete trans.
formations possible to conceive in the history
of any people.
1t is not much wonder that President
Harding IS loath to release him from his job
in the Far East

in Cuba toward the close of the year 1900,
prepared by the general ut that time and

The greatest advance in Cuba has, per-

The lack OF optimism in high official
circles regarding the prospects of any
immediate international loan TO Ger
many, which would permit sudden i'm
provement in the reparation situation,
apparently Is not shared by the Paris
Bourse. where the hesitation of the
previous week has been followed by ac-
tivity In several lines. including rail-
ways, banks and Turkish securities. The
Bourse seems confident that formula
Will be found which will assure France
receiving a substantial part OF any
loan accorded Germany, though il ad-
mits that some part must be given to
Berlin in order to aid In the stabiliza-
ton OF the mark and put exports on
basis that will satisfy British producers
who are suffering the most from Ger
man competition in foreign markets.
1t Is also suggested that the in
tended visit to Washington of NJ Par
mentler. director of the movement OF
funds in the Ministry of Finance. to
discuss ways and means OF consolidating
the French debt. Is accountable for much
OF the Bourse's enthusiasm. for the i'm
preston prevails that Washington will
not be hard on the French, but will ar
range a breathing time for the payment
of the huge sum. probably with the
provision that exchange will be con-
sidered as the interest payments are
met.
According to the Finance Minstry's
lntest calculations. the debt to the
United States now totals more than
$3.5sS. .000, 900, OF which s2951 900. 900

fronted by this tremendous debt. repre-
ceipts from all sources during three
years, but at the same time hopeful Of
a growing appreciation in America that
an immense gold reserve is unfavorable
to her interests. the Boursc refuses to
be pessimistic as to the American stu
alton. and will hail NJ. Parmentier's con-
tact with American financers. Govern
ment experts especially, with rejoicing.
There Is still no indication of when
the Government will float a new interior
