and Senator King CDem) of Utah

fiScation or reduction of the debts.
Borah, however, declared he be-
lieved Baruch had made his pro-
posal merely as a suggestion for
modification of the Balfour plan
which England proposed recently.
The Balfour plan was based pri.
marily on cancellation Of debts by
the United States in return for
cancellation of German reparations

favored cancellation of any part

assumed for the sake of argument
that cancellation Is a legitimate

Young women in Paris have
just formed a "Green Badge

those who seek husbands.
Their wishes are to be con-

by little green ribbons pinned
to their gowns.
These daring maidens have
asked Paris newspapers to give
their plan publicity and re.
quest that bachelors similarly
inclined also take to green
streaners.
But does a wise girl show she
is willing to wed?
While no one denies that most
young women are willing TO
marry when an agreeable oppor-
tunity presents itself, few believe
that even if girl knows her
best career would be that of wife,
she should reveal her intentions.
But what is the way, then, for
girl rightfully, and with dignity,
to achieve matrimony.
We brought the question to a
woman who deals daily with
young women and their problems.

who had the strength to get out and

who get married.
The situation is now reversed.
Now 1t is that fine progressive
girl who is getting married.
That is the girl who has the
greatest chances today. which Is as
II should be. Her forerunners, after
their labors. used to fall back finally,
and stay at home with no chances
at all.
Marriage Of Friends.
More equality for women has
made II possible for girls to be friends
with men. In fact. it's the only way
to begin. The only certain way to
happiness is that
Best friends should marry!
