INDEMNITY
CONGRESSMAN N

who is chairman of the Amer
lean committee to arrange interna-
tional debts due US, that
his committee is unanimous in the
opinion that there should be and
will be no cancellation of the debts
due us by Europe. In that decision
the commission undoubtedly repre-
sents public opinion in the United
States. Some of these debts may
not be collectible now but they
should stand as a claim against the
debtor if we are ever able to col
lect the debt. Mr.. Burton points
out as one reason for his position
the fact that the United States
asked for no territory and for no
cash indemnity from our our de-
feated foes on account of the war.
Every other one of the allies of
the United States in the late war
asked for both. But Congressman
Burton might have further pointed
out. that the United States did in
fact pay Germany nearly a billion
dollars cash through the action
of individual American spec
ulators who bought her paper
marks after the war. They did not
do this to help Germany. They did
it for greed of gain. But just the
same Germany profited by the deal
and the greedy spectators lost.
The Springfield Republican com
menting on the subject says:
although the downward course
of the mark is irregular, it, is, over
any extended period, continuous,
and shows no signs of approaching
the bottom. After the crash of last
August, brought on by the repara-
tons crisis, things improved a lit
tie for a time, and from ar extreme
low value of 0.05 cent the mark
rose above O.07 and remained there
as a rule till last week when the
inexorable downward progress was
resumed, yesterdays quotations be-
ing but a 10th of a hundred of a
cent above the panic low record of
August. In its downward curve to-
ward zero the mark is following
/ with curious fidelity the course OF
the Austrian crown at a distance of
about a year. Where Austrian
money was a year ago German
money is now. and unless the col
l~ective wisdom of the world, guild
ed by such discussions as those of
the bankers now in convention in
New York, can find some remedy
the mark in another year will be
as worthless as Austrian currency
is now.
This new slump gives all the
more interest to the estimate of
the New York World, based on in
vestigations in this country and in
Europe, that Americans have
bought 10000, 900, 900 paper marks,
for investment or speculation at an
average of IL cents, or $l2 a thou
sand. The total investment works
out at $3.50, 900; at the present rate
of exchange its value is about $780,
900, 600, leaving a loss of near
Iy 1920, 000, 200. Some Of these fig
ures may be rough approximations,
but it is certain that the specula-
ton in marks has been one of the
most extraordinary of financial
crazes, and il helps to account for
the extraordinary scarcity of paper
money in Germany. America is
the heaviest loser, but Great Brit
ain is a good second, with losses
estimated at S672, 100000. That
the mark a o ~appreciably
few now believe; the question is
rather of trying to secure some
degree of stability before it's value
has entirely disappeared"

resident Of this city. is under 500
bond for his appearance at the Nc-
tober term Of the Superior Court in
PcrurimanS County in 4 case in
which twcIvc-year-old girl Is
named. The arrest created 4 SenSa-
ton in Pcrquimans where Mr.. Banks
is quite aS we'll known as in Eliza
beth City. and the strange thing
about the case is that no one in
PcrWrimauS seems to know what IT
is about.
The girl in the case is the twelve
ycar-old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Elisha Goodwin and wife. of Hcrt-
ford. Mr. Banks was arrested by
Sheriff Whit Wright Saturday night,
August 26. after he had taken the

bile. Sheriff Wright trailcd the
Banks fivver from Hrrtford 10 Il
roint on the road few miles from
town where it turned round and
started back to Uertford. before
making the arrest. The child insists
that Mr.. Banks did nothing wrong
and the parents protested against
his arrest. Prominent citizens of
Ucrtford went on the defendant $
bond. Street talk in HEREFORD says
nothing will como OF the case, but
Sheriff Wright insisted upon his
man being held and there is IL story
about some one pccping thru win
dow aad seeing something before the
automobile ride took place.
Mr.. Banks is about 40 ycafS old
and those who know him best are
