 Speaking at the banking session of the American Manufacturers' Export Association convention in New York City recently, Sir George Paish. noted British economist, who was Bonar Laws opponent for Par. :. liament. declared that Europe was being dragged to the brink of ruin by statesmen and politicians devoid of knowledge of the fundamentai principles of economics. He also said that America was adding to the confusion by erecting tariR barriers preventing debtor nations from fulfilling their obligations.

MODERN DEBT TO THE PAST
Present-Day Civilization Apt to Forget
Whence Came Much OF Art and
Literature.

SO accustomed ere we tn our own
art and civilization that we scarcely
realize how varied are the sources
from which they sprang. We nc
knowledge great debt to Rome. But
do we often remember that our alpha
bet goes back at least to the Egyp-
tlansf Do We appreciate the meaning
OF the fact that nearly half the words
we use have Latin derivationf That
we owe our numerals to the Arabs?
In our literature, what Is the
debt OF the Elizabethans TO Theocri-
tus. who first sang that pastoral they
In turn learned from the Italians?
Through all our lives run strange
threads of the past. but we are too ac-
cusfomed to them even TO recognize
them AS strange and thrilling. too.
Often influences work In the most UNI
expected ways. To take recent and
unexpected example, one may quote
the color prints. especially those OF

centuries. who have been deep iniiu-
