1t is curious fact that out of all the
score of mighty nations which have
borrowed from the United States, the
relatively small Latin American states
of Cuba and Nicauraugua are the only
ones which have kept their interest
paid up.
The least of our debtors is Liberia
who borrowed SIG, 900. She has paid
1851 in interest; $2,S68 has accrued
so the net debt in $28,86S. Liberia
was war ally, and this money was
used in part to assist her in maintain
ing wireless station useful to the
allied cause.
The total lendings of the United
States amounted to the impressive
total of S10,102 ,252,207. Total interest
paid thus far amounts to $500, 002, 109i
only about one-third of what has &C
crued, which is S1,422, 699,662 The
net debt to the United States, there
fore, is $11,524,951, 1863.
The bulk of the money was lent a

Registration Results

The results of the registration in Wayne
county, indicating that about 80 per cent of the
voters affixed their names to the lists last Sat-
urday, displays lack of interest that compared
with results elsewhere in Indiana. Seemingly
the voters do not believe what the law says when
it sets forth that registration is absolutely nee
essary as prerequisite for voting in November.
The last chance to register will be on Oct.
9. Booths will be open in all the precincts and
the final effort will be made to see that voters
qualify.
In the meantime those who have not regis
tered should keep the day of Oct. in mind, for
that marks the last chance they will have to put
their names on the lists.
Many excuses may be put forth for not reg
istering Saturday, but the fact that many voters

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 12.-Al-
most all the allied governments to
which the United States advanced
funds during the war have appointed
special commissions to meet the tor-
eign debt funding commission, OF
which Secretary of the Treasury Mel
Ion is chairman, with view to plac'
ing this Indebtedness on a permanent
basis. M. Parmentier, representing
the republic of France, already has
been in this country and has started
negotiations. The British mission is
due this month and others will follow
shortly
A survey of precisely what tho debt
situation is, therefore, is in ordef
Eliot Wadsworth, assistant secre-
tary of the treasury in charge of for
eign loans, gives the latest figures on
all sums owing to the United States
as a result of the war and the post
armistice events. This schedule repre-.
sents the task to which the foreign
debt funding commission has address
ed itself and indicates the great ex'
tent of the burden which rests upon
the allies to arrange payment.
Twenty-seven nations signed the
treaty of Versailles which officially
terminated the European war. This
United States has made loans TO 20
nations. This is an indication Of the
invisible aid which the American
people gave the allied cause during
the war, in addition to the visible as
sistance of men, munitions and food
A survey of what was advanced
what it was used for, and wha. has
been repaid, should be of interest ano
value.
Great Britain heads the list Of
debtors. She borrowed $4,135, 81S,35S;
she has paid $25O,132,185 in interest,
but total accrued interest amounts to
$611, 044, POI, bringing the total debt
due to $4,746,862,560. Great Britain
used these funds in the United States
buying arms and food, agricultural and
manufacturing implements. aud s
great variety of other goods necessary
to the prosecution of the, war. She
lent other allies about $4,000, 000, 900
so that all the money she borrowed
from the United States amounted tC
only about half her advances.
France borrowed 340,S57,593; she
has paid interest of S170, 304, 400; to
tai accrued interest is $3.50, O49,O and
the net debt now due is S3,770, 800, 655
Practically all of this loan was spent
in this country for munitions and sup
plies.

@. What was the matter with the
child labor law that the courts de-
cided it was unconstitutional?-S w.
a. The child labor law recently
held unconstitutional by the supreme
court of the United States was in
tended to prevent the employment of
children under the age of IA in any
mill, cannery, workshop, factory or
manufacturing establishment, and
those under Is years of age in mines
Or quarries. To accomplish this it
placed a tax of 10 per cent upon the
net annual profits of those employing
children as prescribed. The supreme
court held that this was a use of the
taxing power of the government for a
purpose entirely distinct from that of
raising revenue, for. as Chief Justice
Taft said, " court must be blind not
to see that the so-called tax is i'm
posed to stop the employment of chill
dren within the age limits prescribed"
Therefore, the court held it to be its
duty to decline to recognize or enforce
laws of congress dealing with sub
jects not entrusted to congress but left
by the supreme law of the land to the
control of the states. even though 1t
required the court to refuse to give
effect to legislation designed to pro-
mote the highest good

@. Are automobile accidents increas-
ing? A. H.
A. For the nation as a whole there

TO REBUILD LAKE
PLEIAD SHELTER
Shelter Destroyed By Fire
Will Be Restored
Next Spring

At a meeting OF the executive COM
mlttee of the Lake Pleiad Section o:
the Green Mountain Club in consulta-
ton with the trail committee lasr
Monday evening, it was decided to
make every effort to rebuild Pleiad
Lodge at once with the opening Of
spring. The news OF this action is an
nounced on the authority of the Pres
ident of the section, Prin. A. S. Harrl-
man, and the chairman of the trail
committee, Prof. p. c. Voter.
The accidental burning of this lodge
some weeks ago was a conspicuous loss
to the whole Long Trail and to the
people of all this vicinity 1t had be-
come a favorte stopping place for
through parties on the trail because OF
its strategic location and its excellent
accommodations 1t was also very pop
ular with picnic parties because of its
nearness to the Ripton- Hancock road
Such parties, while out bound on a far
expedition on the trail, found this 4
convenient spot for cooking and for a
center to their outing by the beautiful
Lake Pleiad and in the heavily timber
ed forest and upon the lookouts in the
vicinity north and south The conse-
quence is that the news of the destruc-
tion of the lodge has brought regret to
large number and an eager desire has
been expressed to have the lodge re-
built.
The officers of the local section Of
the Green Mountain Club are anxious
to take up the enterprise and to 60 on
with it as rapidly as possible The plan
is to collect building material as soon
as the weather will permit There will
be a widespread interest in the pro-
gress OF the undertaking
