TREASURY OFFICER
SPEAKS BY RADIO

Last Tuesday evening White and
Boyer instituted their frs. broad
casting schedule by inviting Frank
J. F. Thiel. assistant treasurer Of
the United States, to transmit an
address; and local musicians to play
for the benefit OF scores OF listen
ers-in.
In his address Mr.. Thiel said:
Before the great war. in 1914.
the interest-bearing debt Of the
government was S96I.000.0 900 and the
interest charge about $4,000. 900. In
comparison the misunderstanding debt
on January /, 1922, was s23, lsS.oOO
900 and the Interest paid for the
last fiscal year amounted to $751;
100000. In other words the interest
on the government debt is now
greater than the principal of the
debt before the war. It Is true that
taxes are high. but is there any
wonder when this single item of
interest. which is a fixed charge,
is s2s7.o00.00o greater than the en-
tire ordinary operating expenses OF
the government in 1914? Notewor-
thy progress has been made IN the
effort to reduce the tremendous
government obligations outstanding.
for on September 1. 1919. the in
terest-bearinR debt amounted to
s26,34S, 100000. 1t will thus be seen
that within a period OF two years
and four months there has been
reduction in the principal of the
debt of $3.50. 100000.

From Smoke Signals
To Present Raidophone

In the days when Indian tribes
-cved the prairies. theT made use
OF smoke signals for long distance
communication. The blackness OF
the smoke and the number sc puffs
correspondent to the dots and Clashes
Of today's radio communication.
Chief Look -in-face developed long
distance vision. and he knew the
special code used by his tribesmen
on some distant hill. His hearing
was also acute, but he kept his
ear to the ground. for there were
no Murdoch phone receivers in those
days with which he might snatch
battle signs from the invisibls ether.
Times have changed. Means of
communication and transportation
have turned mems eyes upward.
And today Miss Alice Robertson,
of Oklahoma. wired a message to
far off Muskogee, Okla. on the
great changes time has wrought.
Miss Robertson at first had planned
to use the radio. but could not get
a free" air line. She expects to
deliver a radlophone speech at some
later time.

violation OF said act. whereas the

months imprisonment or both. at

Borrower IN Peril.
Surely. the taking OF unlawful
interest upon a note Is no lesser
ofrense than a similar exaction by.
a pawnbroker. and as the real object
OF Congress IL not 10 differentiate
between pawnbrokers and other
money lenders, or to provide a
more severe penalty for one Insurer
than another. this feature alone
would afford ample ground for the
contention that the act Of 1918 will
be repealed in toto should the Focht
bill bec' me law.
should this contention be sus-
tanned the District would have no
law permitting loans upon notes at
moro than s per cent per annum,
to the manifest advantage OF the
pawnbrokers. and the equally mani
fest detriment Of the needy bor-
rover who lacks tangible security.
There are other points which
lead to the same opinion. as shown
by the report of the law commit
tee cr the Federation Of Citizens
Associations. and also by state
ments made during the hearings
when the Focht bill was under con-
sideration."
