WASHINGTON, April 24-The
United States government has rather
delicate question to solve in connection
with the invitation extended personally
to J. F. Morgan to be a member of Il sub
committee of bankers selected by the
Preparations commission to get advice on
the subject of an international loan.
America is not officially represented
on the reparations commission though
President Harding is hoping congress
will give him the power to make such an
appointments The committee of bankers
is in sense an unofficial body and can
not of course commit the United States
government even though Il prominent and
influential American banker shall concur
in the discussions of the committee and
the commission itself. But in view of
sthe expressed policy of President Hard
ing and Secretary of State Hughes re-
questing American firms to consult the
government here before agreeing to any
fotation of foreign loans, Mr.. Morgan is
morally bound to ask the consent of the
department of state. Rather the qucS-
ton will be whether the department of
state has any objection to his acceptance
of the invitation extended TO him for the
government will not be in the position of
approving or disappearing Mr.. Morgan $
task on the committee of allied bankers.
Has Loaned Large Sums.
Mr. Morgan-s firm lent large sums of
money to the allies before the United
States entered the war and has a nat
ural sOlicitude concerning the future of
European finances and especially the
payments of German rcparation money.
The Morgan firm has iloatcd its loans
among thousands of American investors
and is as anxious as a private firm can
be that repayment be made ON the princi-
pal and interest in due time. After the
Morgans ceased financing British and
French enterprises in America. the
United States extended many billions OF
dollars of credit to the allies too.
So the Alorgans on the one hand and
the American government ON the other
are inevitably concerned with what goes
on in the reparationS commission where
the priorities on payments from Germany
10 the allies are determined. To a GER
tain extent the interests of the private
banking firm of !. =. Morgan and the
United States government are Identical.
Both want TO see Europe reconstructed
so that war debts may be paid with inter

If we consumed more of it. Here's some.
thing to remember: When you drink milk
drink it normally, don't sip it slowly. The
reason was developed by X-ray pictures.
Milk that is slipped forms a large mass in
the stomach. Milk that is gulped forms
soft, mushy mass in the stomach and is
digested much more quickly
There is, however, some hope for us, in
Dr. Sy's opinion. Human knowledge of
what the body needs is increasing and
there is greater desire to give the sys.
tenn what is imperative. incidentally, DR..
Sy does not think that there is adultera.
tion OF foods to any extent in these days.
The reason for this change for the better,
he said, is that the great food-selling con.
Germs, the big advertisers, are Jealous OF
their regulations and are careful to put on
the market the best articles they can
produce.
