DEBT CANCELLATION

Bonar Law says England can
not pay America unless her debt
ors pay her. Or to put it another
way, she cannot cancel what her
war debtors owe her unless Amer
lea cancels the English war debt.
The British premier may have
meant it as an appeal to America
to join in a general cancellation.
In any event, however umwelcome
the statement may be in some
quarters, 1t is probably the truth.
England would be bearing an
enormous load if, i'll addition TO
the war burdens she is carrying
already, She undertook at the same
time to pay the four or five bill
lions charged against her on
Uncle Sans books and forego
the collection of an equal amount
lent by her to the Allies, not to
mention the reparation due her
from Germany 1t would mean
that Great Britain was assuming,
alone. a war debt nearly as large as
all the Allies together owe the
United States. And all OF it would
have to come out of the pockets
of the British people, already poor

A HARBINGER OF PEACE

1t is dougtful if any delegate to the
convention of the World League
Against Alcoholism lsat week failed to
see in this vast assemblage a prophecy
of world peace. Never before has
there been a convention of the char
acter of this one held in Toronto. Of
fetal Representatives Of many govern
ments have often assembled for con-
ferences of one Kind an another, but
when before have people assembled to-
gether from more than sixty countries
acting on their own initiative and &C.
tuated by one common purpose-that
purpose to pormote human welfare?
1t was an inspiring sight to see these
people assembled under the flags OF
their respective nations and to hear
the pledge of cooperation in the fight
to drive the liquor traffic off the face
of the earth. No one who witnessed
this scene could doubt the possibilities
of world peace. The nations CAN be
brought together in unity and love, and
back of all this demonstration lies the
truth that alcohol is the most disturb
ing factor in the world.

NEW BOATHOUSE

A new spirit OF play needs to
be instilled into the lives of many
OF us AlexandrianS. We need 4
new environment. We will have
it. Certainly there are those who
say that Alexandrians are dead
and do not work enough. Moth
inc could be more untrue Tor no.
where in the land we believe is a
harder-working, truer commune
ty. The old story OF lack the
Dull Boy" applies nowhere so
we'll as in Alexandria In fact,
too much time is given to the
everyday grind OF our lvieS to war
rant the advancement which We
so sincerely wish. When Our
DAYS work is finished we do not
have the energy to get out and
play and for that reason do not I'M
derStand why anyone else should
be given any fun at all. Play, in
telligent play. is as important in
the life as is work. In play our
minds, as we'll as our bodies are
re-created and rested so that we
NAV return to our work with re-
newed vigor and new ideas
things essential to our lasting wei
fare.
The Old Dominion Boat Club
is preparing to build its new club
house which will become 4 spot
where the wearied tired body and
soul may find complete recreation
after a laboriouS day in the office
or the shop. This is one OF the
most important OF the proposals
for civic advancement OF the COM
ing year and one deserving the at
tention OF each one who IS inter
eSted in the welfare OF the city.
1t is indeed q credit to any city
to have an organization with the
pep" and push and vigor OF
this club and, therefore it is to
the advantage OF each one who
has his future bound up in the
future OF Alexandria to help get
this new proposition over big and
strong.
1t will be 4 hard pull on the
part OF the members OF this or
ganization to put this proposition
over in good style, but. with char
acteriStic hardihood and punch OF
the man who roamS the fields and
waters, they are coming forward
with something that means much
to the city.
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1922-12-28


building that was formerly moth
ing but an eye-sore. Is that not
more progress?
We wish to congratulate the
city council and the city manager
upon the manner i'll which they
are taking hold of civic matters.
Their term of Office we hope will
mark the turning point in the his
tory of our city. For many years
the old city has held her own;
neither advancing nor retreating
but placidly marking time, thc
most monotonous employment
known.
Forward March, is the COM
mand of the hour and with the ap-
preaching New Year we stand
with expectancy and hope ready
to plunge into the battle and fight
till the victory be twon and a
Greater Alexandria is our very
own.

UNION DEMANDS

According to a circular issued by
the National Association of Manutac-
turers, the Union Label Trades De-
partment Of the American Fedora
tion of Labor has just issued to all
labor unions a statement that labor
unionists should see to it that:
Christmas gifts bear the union Ia
bel.
Stores employ only union clerks and
drivers.
Churches engaging special orches-
tras at Christmas hire only union
musicians.
Christmas programs bear the I'M
ion label.
Holiday season entertainments en-
nlov walters who serve union breao'
cake. meat and soft drinks.

the war.
This is not saying that Eng
land should not pay the United
States. Neither is it saying that
England should not cancel as
much OF her claims as her for
eign debtors as she can. But it is
evident that if there is going to
be any debt cancellation at all
England will want the United
States to take part OF the loss
