EUROPE WANT 8

INDEMNITY
Secretary Hughes conters
With Sir Auckland Ceddes
on Subject.
BY GEORGE w. HINMAN. JR.
Universal Service.

Europe is seeking the direct aid
Of the United States to reach q
satisfactory solution Of the repara-
tions wrangle which caused the
collapse of the London conference.
This was indicated here yesterday
after a conference between Secre-
tary of State Hughes and Sir
Auckland Geddes. British Ambassa.
dor. Secretary Hughes later laid
latest official reports from Europe
before President Harding and his
advisers at the Cabinet meeting.
where the situation was seriously
considered.
Statements by David Lloyd George.
former British premier. published
in the Hearst newspapers last Sun
day. were discussed with interest
by the President and Cabinet mem
bers as throwing further light on
Europe. .
How seriously conditions in Eu-
ripe are regarded by the adminis-
tration was Indicated by reply to
a question asking the President : to
comment on the Lloyd George arti'
Gle. The answer to this and re-
lated questions was given at the
White House a. follows; D.
The President read Lloyd
Georges statements with the same
interest as did others watching
European developments. OF course
the President contemplates condi
tions In Europe from a more init
mate viewpoint. Under the circum
stances, he docs not feel that hs
can comment with propriety."
President Harding, It was asserted
authoritatively, was sincere In suK
gesting through his message tt
Congress the idea Of extending thu
principle OF the Pacific four-poweI
treaty. He feels that the principle
can be applied with good results
and without trespassing upon the
rights of any nation.
The President does not, however
consider Il necessary that tn
United States be . party TO- tn
suggested "extension Of principle.
where circumstances do not inv0lv'
American interests, he believes, tn
United States naturally would no
be . signatory. N, ~. y
In other words, the President 4
said ID feel that. In extending tn
fOur-pOwer pact principle to n,ee
other conditions, only those nation
involved In each situation can prOp
erly negotiate. -,

French Wealth in Russia

Figures published by the Bankers
Trust Company show that the
amount Of French capital formerly
invested in the Russian t,mpirc-
w;as approximately $4,000. 100000
francs. More than 7,0O0.O0O,O0O
francs Of this was in the form Of
state bonds. held for the greater part
by French individuals and banks,
and about 100000, 900 francs con-
sisted Of French Treasury advances.
Property in Russia belonging to
French nationals was estimated at
7.000,000.000 francs. exclusive of
stocks and bonds of railway and
other companies.
The loss Of this honestly invested
wealth has. OF course. been a serious
blow TO France. Is it strange that
France looks askance at the Genoa
conference and the plan to cancel
the Russian debt? Or is it strange
that France, according to reports
from Berlin. disfavors German cf-
forts to clinch an agreement with
Soviet Russia whereby Germans will
receive for exploitation large part
Of Russias resources? TO the e.
tent that Germany can invalidatc
Frances capital invested in Russia
she will further her own interests
and delay French reconstruction
The report from Berlin states
Chat she hopes to settle her treaties
with Russia before the Genoa con
ference. Is this merely another
scheme to deprive France of her
lust dues?

Jewish Relief

A drve to raise $5.OOO,OOO in
New York City to help the stricken
Jews of central aud eastern Europe
has been begun by The American
Jewish Relief Committee. The
movement has the sympathy OF Mr..
Hoover and the American Relief
Administration and is recognized by
the authorities here and abroad.
The money raised viii be used to
care for jewish orphans. to rcpa-
triatc refugees and to help those
financially ruined to make a fresh
start in life.
The vars aftermath left MANY
parts Of Central Europe desolate.
1T so happens that in these regions
q large percentage Of the inha bit
ants arc Jews. Forced out by the
troops. they found themselves un-
welcome in new lands and fire.
quently were driven forth again
only to endure new sufferings and
starvation. Returning now TO their.
homes. they find them often wrecked
snd the prospect Of earning a living
gone.
The Jews Of America. moved by
4 deep sympathy, have come to the
help Of their co-religionists. Their
appeal for funds is addressed pri-
marily to their own people. The
cause, however, is one which should
move all, regardless Of faith, so that
relief may speedily be brought to
the suffering.

Judge Landis's Resignation

Kenesaw NJ. Lands, the arbitcr of
organized baseball. has resigned as
Federal district judge He says
frankly that he is quitting the bench
because he hasn't time enough to
give to both his judicial and his
xtra-judicial duties. 1t was OBJ
vious that he could not function adc
Quately in two such absorbing ca
pacitlcs. Criticism Of him in Con-
eress and at the meetings of the
American Bar Association was based
more on recognition Of this fact,
perhaps, than it was on theoretical
dlsapproval Of judges accepting
outside employment.
Mr.. Lands has reached a sensible
conclusion. lie is a man with an
unusual gift Of attracting the con-
t1dence Of large groups Of people.
Organized baseball was eager TO bid
for his services, which have been of
great benefit to it and have COM
mcnded its conduct Of the sport to
the public. He was also chosen as
arbitrator in The Chicago building
strike, both the employers and The
men trusting implicitly in his fair
ness and good judgment.
Men Of this quality are rare
rarcr than competent judges. Mr..
Lands can undoubtedly find wider
field of usefulness in private life
than on the bench. whereas be has
