UNCLE TED'S
BEDTIME STORIES.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

well, If Uncle Ted doesn't come
pretty soon, I'm going to bed" 1t was
Jack speaking, as he lay curled up in
a big arm claim where he had been
studying his lessons. He and Ruth
had both finished preparation for next
day In school and had been waiting
for their uncle to come home and tell
them story.
az wish Uncle Ted would tell us
why there is so much in the papers
these days about Genoa" replied Ruth
81 have not read any Of the pieces In
the papers but l have seen Genoa
Genoa, in the headlines until ! am
tired Of 1t. I'm really more interested
In the stories about ghosts up in Can
ada, but I suppose there must be some
thing interesting going on in Genoa
or theer wouldn't be so much IN the
papers about 1t. can read the stories
about ghosts, all right, but l want
Uncle Ten to tell me about Genoa. |
never heard of the place before except
in the history where it said that Chris
topher Columbus was born there"
"I guess Uncle Ted will tell u.s." re-
sponded Jack. "All I know about 1t
is that Mr.. Hughes isn't going there.
I heard man say 30 few days ago."
Here comes Uncle Ted now" ex-
claimed Ruth, bounding from her
chair and rushing to the front hall.
"What made you 30 late?"
"Oh, I've been down at the club, and
got Interested in the conversation
among bunch Of men there"
"Politics," asserted Jack.
mo, not politics as we usually un-
derstand it." replied his uncle, "but
politics nevertheless. We were talk
ing about Europe and the refunding OF
Europe's debt to US, and the proposed
conference at Genoa"
"That's Just what Jack and were
about and we want you to tell
us why Genoa has become so import
ant all at once"
ct can't tell you all about 1t, but
I can tell you a few things that may
be important, though Genoa itself is
no more important than It has been in
the past. You see, we don't really
know all about the Genoa matter ana
can only surmise part Of It. Just In a
few words, a number Of countries IN
wanted to hold meeting to
talk over and agree concerning lot
Of things Of interest to them, and they
invited the United States to sen her
representatives to the meeting, which
was to be held at Genoa, Italy.
"Now It has beon my idea, and It
ia tho opinion OF most Of the men !
talk with, that this Genoa meeting was
intended to be q sort Of revival OF thte
World Club. that ! told you q lot about
last year. You know the United States

RAPE PASTURE BALANCES

recognized as one Of the best pasture
crops with which to balance corn

the crop contains as much protein as

thte Club, or League Of Nations, as 1t
is called, has not amounted to much.
The nations that are trying to get up
this meeting at Genoa are the nations
that were interested in the World Club
They are making one more effort to
get the United States to pull them out
of their troubles.
"You remember that I told you once
THAT the League has not reduced war
in fact there have been lot Of lit
tie wars going on in Europe almost
ever since the League was formed.
There is hardly any nation TINT is sat
isfied with the treaty that was enter
ed into in France to end the war with
Germany. That treaty established new
boundaries for a number Of old or new
countries and fixed certain amounts
the defeated nations must pay. A
number Of the nations borrowed
money from the United States to help
pay their war expenses and they still
owe It. They haven't even paid the in
terest. In Russia, where hundreds of
thousands Of peopel are starving, the
Sooviet Government has 1,25O,o00 men
and perhaps more, under arms. That

wood, are in the army. and the United
States sent several shiploads Of food
to Russia to feed the people. No one
in Europe is satisfied with the condi-
ton Of affairs there. but because the
United States is peaceful and get
ting down to work and earning money,
the ywant US to come over there and
help them.
my guess is that THEY want us In
tie first place to give them the elev-
on billion dollars we have loaned them
an dthen become a party to their new
agreements, 80 that If anyone breaks
the agreements we will be under some
obligations to send our army and navy
cover to enforce the agreements.
"Those boundary disputes and rep
aration debts and treaty relations are
politics - international politics - but
THEY are things in which we are not
directly concerned and in which we
have a very remote interest. Our
President called a meeting at Wash
ington some time ago to discuss mat
tors in which we and other nations
are mutually interested, and those
matters were settled by agreement.
That is the way to settle dispute
The differences existing in Europe
ought to be settled, but they ought to
be settled by the people affected.

countries in any way we can without
too great a sacrifice Of our own peo-
pie. We have put off collecting inter-

But It is no place for us to send a rep

ours. We are willing in the future to
