The Temps Objects.

TN THE report of the Inter-American High Com
i mission, the statement was made that there
two major problems that must be solved be-
fore the economic equilibrium of Europe and the
world be restored. These
I. The readjustment Of German reparations on
a basis within the practical power of the German
people to pay; and
?. The reduction of the armies maintained by
certain nations of the European continent.
In criticisng this report the Paris Temps,
which usually reflects the attitude OF the French
government, says that the United States cannot
discuss German reparations because have ig-
nored the treaty of Versailles and cannot dis
cuss disarmament because have not joined the
league of nations. What may do, it develops
later in the Temps article, is to cancel the war
debts owed by France and other European
states and then give them credits 1t is argued
moreover that the suggestion regarding the revi-
sion OF the reparatons plan tends to agerayate the
chaos OF Europe on the ground that this revision
was made at London last year and that bringing up
the matter again only serves to encourage Germany
IN her endeavors to avoid paying her debts. 1t is
true that new plan for reparations was evolved
at London, but the trouble with that plan is that il
hasn't worked and it won't work until it has been
revised.
With regard to the second recommendation of
the inter-American committee-that European arm
les be reduced-the Temps asserts that Frances
army is not but an effect, that it is MAIN
tanned for security and for obtaining Frances dues
The word security is subject to various interoreta
tons. but it i, at least doubtful if real security in
its broadest sense be obtained If it is
chiefly dependent on the maintenance of military
establishment greater than a nation can afford to
support. As for what is due France from Ger
many, no one will deny that it is more than can be
paid in money materials or territory, but what
France and the other allies can collect from Ger
many without making conditions that are now des-
perate infinitely worse is another matter. An army
can occupy German territory but it cannot restore
economic structure of Europe.
The trouble with the point Of view represe seL
by the Temps and by many French leaders is thai
for the security of their country they are demand
ing that Germany be made impotent not only from
military standpoint but from an economic stand
point as well. So long as that point of view is
maintained the economic rehabilitation of Europe,
by which the only real security is possible, cannot
be realized

- OHteTInyer Is one
OF New York's leading lawyers, and
enjoys national reputation. Twice
In the past, however, he has re-
fused the Democratic nomination
for the New York Senatorship.
Samuel Untermyer was born at
Lynchburg, Va, in 1858; was gradu-
ated from the law department of
Columbia University in 1878, and
was admitted to the New York bar
the following year, The important
cases In which he has figured are
many. He organized and is counsel
for numerous brewing, manufactur-
ing, mining, Industrial and railway
corporations and reorganizations.
He serves as director in many great
corporations.
Uptermyer was counsel for the
committee on banking and cur
rency of the House of Representa-
tives, Washington, d. c., in the
Pujo money trust Investigation,
which resulted in the enactment of
remedial laws. He was special ad-
visor to the government on the in
depreciation of income tax and war
emergency tax laws, and assisted
Provost Marshal Gen. Crowder in
the administration o. the selective
service law.
Untermyer's law practice has net
ted him many millions. of dollars.
Some years ago he received a single
fee of s775,000, when he success
fully carried through the merger
OF the Utah Copper Company with
the Boston Consolidated and the
Nevada Consolidated companies, rep
resenting market value of $780,

side the lumber regions, will always Rclp the farm
ers, but can not. grow the quantities of saw
timber we must have to live. They are in little
danger of devastation. -
The privately-owned commercial timberlands
which contain most of what timber VIC have left arc
being devastated more rapidly and completely than
ever before, the ncaculablc injury of the whole
nation.
when house is on fire, the.frst thing is to
stop the fire. Replantihg, fire prevention, and the
saving of what timberands still remain on the pub
lie domain and the Indian reservations each of
great importance, but the first thing is put an
end to forest devastation.
"Since the States which do not have forests
must depend those which do this matter must
be handled by the nation itself. national law
would become effective everywhere at once, while
if saving commercial forests were left to the in
divdual States, it would undoubtedly be years be-
fore those States which have large supplies of
timber would take action By that time i; might
we'll be too late.
Meanwhile, it is we'll to remember that the for
est is crop to be grown from the soil. not mine
to be exhausted and abandoned, as the lumbermen
do and that the proposal to take the United States
Forest Service out of the Department of Agricul-
ture is in fact proposal to check the progress of

The Light of Understanding

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
| The light of understanding leads to
honor, faith and trust
And draws the world together In
a universal creed.
Which makes for peace and friend
| ship of the nations staid and
just. ~
with harmony the watchword and
good win Of thought and
- deed.
It Ia the lofty beacon Of this world
ly wilderness.
THAT, elevates the conscience and
enables love and hope
Amid times vague surroundings Of
Z injustice and excess
|, And throws q peaceful mantle
over life's enlightened scope.
ION pinnacles Of progress where am
billion seeks goal,
Beyond the sullen shadows Of a
false and ruthless light.
| That light must shine uneeasing
and illumine heart and soul
/ with q radiance and wisdom born
of knowledge, truth and right.
The world has caught the message
through the airophone OF
Time,
Flung from some unseen summit
OF Supreme IntelligenceA
And from the gloomy abyss offoul
depths mankind shall climb,
Rejoicing in new glory bought
with sad experience.
The light of understanding burns In
Freedoms stately tower,
With true, far-flashing splendor
that enlarges mind and will,
While crossing future chasms TO
day when peace Is power,
And mirages of warfare no more
lend a savage thrill.
GEORGE SANDS JOHNSON.
