American "Selfishness"

The effort of European countries to induce
America to cancel the war debts they owe us
continues in increasing volume. Hardly has one
effort been defeated by our insistence on the
principle that an honest debtor tries to reduce
his obligation before another movement is
launched to convince the American people that
they are hard-hearted and. calous to justifiable
appeals for leniency.
Europe looks upon the United States as self
ish miser who profited by the World war at the
expense of unfortunate countries, and now re-
fuses to help them back on their feet Propa-
gandists paint us as being deaf to appeals of
charity and absolutely oblivious to the plight Of
ruined Europe. Many of them believe that we
did nothing in the war, spent no money, sacri-
feed no lives, assumed no tremendous war debts
of our own, but simply raked in the money from
the war contracts which were awarded to Ameri-
can contractors.
This propaganda, in one form or another, has
found supporters in our own country among per-
sons who truthfully believe we have been remiss
and others whose financial affairs would be bene-
fitted considerably if we cancelled the eleven bill
lion dollars due us from European countries
Europe and the supporters of the debt can

few elements in our alleged "selfishness" The

job of feeding Europe shelterng its people relieving
their dstresses. No nation has done half

Ripping Rhymes
HE MEN
BY Walt Mason

Strong and fearless men go forth,
where the arctic tempests sweep, in
the reaches of the North, where the
snow is 10 feet deep; and they battle
with the gales, and they scrap with
wolverines, that we may have he-men
tales in the fiction magazines. They
would all be better off in a sunny
cline like ours, where the sportive
minded toff may cavort among the
flowers; but they freeze their finger
nails and they live on frozen beans;
for we must have he-men tales in the
fiction magazines. And the he-men
roam the woods in the tempest and the
snow, seeking hides and other goods
worth about two bits throw; and the
gentle reader pales while his rocking
chair careens, as he reads the he-men
tales in the fiction magazines. There
are he-men in the town, far away from
polar bears; some of them are holding
down cheap and wobbly office chairs;
there are great heroic males toiling in
their greasy jeans; but they figure in
no tales in the he-men magazines. But
the he-men have to go to the burning
wastes of sand, or the wilderness of
snow, where the gloomy forests stand;
they must follow far off trails: if they
don't they spill the beans, and they
figure in no tales in the red blood
magazines.

Another Triumph for Wireless

More than 200 men, women and children
aboard the City of Honolulu, 67O miles off the
Pacific coast, were spared suffering and possible
death through radio communication, which sum-
moned vessels to the rescue. The feat was an
other triumph for the wireless, and although it
was not the first time rescues of this kind have
been made possible by the invention, it serves to
show that modern invention is minimizing dan
ger on land and sea.
The fire swept through the City of Honolulu
so rapidly that fighting it was out of the ques-
ton, and the only thing left for the captain was
to order the passengers and crew to take to the
boats A freighter, so miles away, heard the
first call for help and headed for the location
given by the radio message. Soon the PIT men
and women were safe aboard the rescuer.
Before the discovery of the wireless the burn
ing of ship on sea usually meant a tragedy of
major proportions. Rescue depended solely upon
some other ship travelling the same line and then
often days elapsed before one came in sight
Meanwhile, the passengers endured intense suf-
sells soon reach the location of the shipwreck and
spare passengers and crew mental and physical
suffering.
Without radio communication the marine
service would still be hazard of great proper
tions. Nowadays the ship that goes to sea I'M
able to communicate with the land or other ships
is back number. Ships are now in touch with
each other for most of the distance which they
travel owing entirely to the inventive genius
who solved the problem of swift and ready inter
communication.
