Upton is PLANNING
To BUILD new YACHT

London, July 19.-The Standard
this evening reported that Sir
Thomas Upton was planning to
build new yacht with which to
make another attempt to lift the
American cup. The secretary of
Sir Thomas, however, informed
the Associated Press that there
was nothing to justify such a re-
port and that no challenge for
another race had been sent to the
United States.

They are much larger than ordinary

The complete cancellation of the
war debt. owing 10 the United States
by the governments Of Europe, would
be fully justified II we might be
assured that the return upon that IN
vestment would be the substantial
peace OF the world. But we have no
such assurance. Indeed the aTarlce
and sclf-aggrandiZement which con-
stantly intervene in international coun-
ellis to render abortve efforts at
economic rehabilitation and the tenn
permanent of the participants in these
councils all suggest that such maGnani-
nous action on the part of the United
States wo.ld rather tend TO encourage
and prcciptate future wars than avert
them Furthermore, such action would
be q hindranCe and not help TO tho
beneficiary nations. Charity contributes
In dependcnCe not independence. When
a hankrupt iS relieved Of his debts he
must first surrender all his assets TO be
administered and distributed among his
creditors These principles are as true
in their application 10 nations as 10
individuals, and Reputation is not more
to ne tolerated in nation than IN an
individual. This nation may ana should
lend its assistance to the lndustrial ana
economic reconstruction of the stricken
nations Of Europe but cancellation OF
the debt would demoralize the sense or
international obligation and RESPONSE
hility, and It would he as false In the
character Of It's relief as 1t would be
unius, TO the taxpayers OF our own
country. Let the debt he funded, not
cancelled: let the interest be paid regu-
larly and nunctua!ly and the principal
when and as the debtor nations are able
10 pay.
