jpudiation, Is 1t then any wonder
that the flotation OF foreign bonds
has begun to lag. that investors are
saturated" with foreign loans, that,
the people west Of Michigan City a.
least are fed up" on Europe?
Every dollar spent in Washington
comes out of some Americans
pocket. That was Grover Cleve-
lands way of pushins-a great finan-
cial truth home to the American tax
payer. Every dollar sent to Europe
comes out Of some Americans "sav.
ings."
When we send a billion, as in the
last six months, hundreds OF thous-
ands of American pocket books have
to be drawn on. That Is clear. Con-
sequently our loans and gifts have
been spread abroad among investing
Americans until both future loans
and future gifts have become del
pendent on popular business senti|
ment. And that sentiment is no
what 1t was. 1t has been played ot

Huge Buildings Costing Mil

PITTSBURGH, Pa, July IAN

city never before has witnessed now

I'D on every corner with amazing
rapidity. Pittsburgh: already a city

Scores Of business structures are

Throughout greater Pittsburgh
there are a vast number Of private
residences being built. The total
expenditure for Observation-Disclosures

S25. .000, 900 by the end Of the year.
Millions more are being spent In

For a year or more Pittsburgh
was tied up by the building trades
They fixed the scale and said they
would not cut prices. Building con-
tractors and home builders said they
would not pay wartime wages. and
az a result there was very little
building. Atop Of all this, prices
for materials were maintained at
wartime levels.
But this spring one Of the unions
decided II could materially reduce Its
scale In order to get its men bach
to work. A month rolled by and
another union reduced it's scale. One
by one the other unions lowered
their scales.
Material dealers were piled high

Sale of Foreign Bonds
In u. S. Almost Billion
More Than $700000,000 of Such Bonds Have
Been Sold in America Since January /.
By GEORGE w. HINMAN.

CHICAGO, July 1.-From january to this daY- some
$70O 900 of foreign bonds have been sold publicly In
the United States.
The Washington times., 1922-07-02

Many others have been sold pri-
Yately. For instance. Polish bonds,
which for obvious reasons are not in
condition to stand the white light Of
publicity. are being distributed quiet
ly In the middle West every day.
At the present the market for
new foreign loans is weak. There
is a lull. Why7 The answer Is i'm
portant. 1t involves the whole ques-
ton OF finance and credit and fu-
ture progress In American business.
The answer is that from u sent:-
mental and business viewpoint
American investors are getting fed
up" on Europe. They have been
saturated with the foreign demands
for American money. They cannot
or will not go absorbing those de-
mands as in the past.
There are other answers-the
growing uses for American money
in Americas reviving industry. the
increasing call for funds in building.
manufacturing. investing and even
speculating. the continued drain OF
wartime taxes in a time OF peace.
These all have their influence. But
the main reason is a growing dis
trust of those people abroad who are
always making old loans the excuses
for new ones.
General Sentiment.
However, the, general sentiment
may be in the East, 1t runs one
way In the Middle west and, accord
ing to all reports, the same way
west Of the Mississippi. That sen
timent is that American money
should be used for America first.
Right or wrong, that Is the feeling
that prevails. Even in politics 1t is
being felt. That is the sentiment
that rolled over and defeated Nc
Cumber in North Dakota.
The chief criticism aimed at him
by the farmers was that he de
voted SO much attention to the
troubles of foreigners that he had
no time for the financial Difficult
ties of his own people. This is
the sentiment that is animatine
thousands of Republican voters who
oppose Senator Kellog In Mime
sofa. The reports come from a
man who has toured both States
in an automobile to get the finan
cial sentiment of the farmers and
small town merchants.
We send 100000, 900 abroad In
exchange for foreign bonds in six
months. BY the time the summer
is over American tourists will have
left $125. 200, 900 to $3.50, 0,000,0 900 more
in Europe alone since January /
We forgive Austria $4,000, 900 that
she owes us: send Liberia, with a
white population smaller than
Bloomington's, $4,000, 900: appropri
ate officially and by private charity
some $4,000, 900 to Russia; collect
without ceasing funds In behalf oi
Armenia. and so on indefinitely.
Our foreign loan and charities
have probably cost America not a
cent less than $1,000, 900, 900 in six
months-all taken from the liquid
capital Of the country, all removed
from any possible future uses OF
American industry, all put beyond
reach Of the wage earners and brain
workers OF this country for many
years to come.

EDITING SMALL TOWN PAPER
EVIDENTLY A LABOR
OF LOVE.

A country editor thus unbosoms
himself on the ingratitude of re-
publics:
after a good deal of study and
work we have at last figured out
why so many country editors get
rich. Here is the secret of success:
"A child is born in the neighbor-
hood, the attending physician gets
$50, the editor gives the loud-lunged
youngster and the happy parents a
'send-off' and gets 500. 1t is chris
tened, the minister gets $40 and
the editor gets 500. 1t grows up
and marries; the editor publishes
another long-winded flowery article
and tells a dozen lies about the
beautiful and accomplished bride,
the minister gets $40 and a piece of
cake. the editor gets 5000.
I'm the course of time il dies and
the doctor gets $25 to 800. the min
lister gets another SIS, the under.
taker gets from $50 to 500; the
editor publishes a notice of the
death and an obituary a column
long, lodge and society resolutions.
a lot of poetry and a free card of
thanks and receives 10000. No
wonder so many editors get rich"

RURAL
HEALTH
BY DR.. r. n. BISHOP

1t is pleasing to note that our law
makers, both state and national, are
awakening to their responsibilities in
regard to public health.
Ohio's latest step is affirmation of
the Hughes Griswold act, which gives
he state health commissioner oppor-
tunity to improve the health of rural
communities, unhampered by political
influences.
Before enactment of the Hughes
Griswold law the number OF health
officers was measured by the mum
Der Of cities and villages and town.
ships.
Too frequently the only considera-
ton for the appointment Of such
health officers was that each town
and village was entitled to one. The
question of fitness or knowledge of
public health methods and procedure
was rarely considered in making the
appointment.
The act creates in each county a
general health district consisting of
all the villages and townships in the
county. The mayors OF the villages
and the chairman of the township
trustees meet once a year and elect
members Of the board of health.
This board of health consists of
five members, one of whom must be
a physician. The board Of health
selects the district health commits
sioner, who must be a physician.
Tho obstacle which has hitherto
prevented persons in rural commune
ties from taking active interest in
the preservation of health has been
their isolation, which has been also
their only protection from disease.

Wealth In Coconuts.

Wealth and rank on the Island Of
Nauru, In the South Seas. are gagged
by coconut trees. To W much Co
conut land Is wealth and aristocracy ;
to- own none is beggary; In the old
time II was slavery. Some men have
made Il good thing, us reckoned In the
Islands, by marrying brown brides
rich In coconut land. according to the
National Geographic Magazine.
The land Is cut up into very small
plots, usually described by square
rods and roods instead of acres. The
title to the trees does not pass with
the land, but Is u separate transae-
ton. One may buy a piece of land,
but cannot use the nuts, and the
native owner has the right to come
upon ones premises to gather toddy
and nuts.
The trees are not only reckoned
by count. but the nuts are reckoned
by count. In normal times the crop
is continuous. blossoms, green and ripe
fruit being on the rec ut the same
time.
