IN 1920 as against 1,434,42s In 1910.
Blu. too many children were emu

according to DR.. Edwars. who
pointed out that. although an IN

OF children employed on farms
there was mo similar increase in
the total number OF persons en-

The decrease IN he number Of

The foregoing is in line with what Is
happening to-day. II Germany could
have secured n loan Immediately upon
the close of the war she would not
have been so adversely affected in the
exchange market and she would have
been able to purchase from American
manufacturers much of their surplus
stocks of necessities. Germany would
have gotten much of what she was de-
prived of through four years OF n
blockade and America would have cap
tured an important market. But in
stead Germany was treated as an iso-
lated factor without thought of the eff
feet OF her economic condition on the
rest Of the world. Germany in despera-
tion has made the mistake which the
French writer in 1873 said would be
disastrous for his country IL attempted

Mr.. Lamont foresaw, therefore, as
early as September, 1918, the prospect
of an international loan. Nearly four
years have elapsed since then and the
problem of German indemnity pay
ments has not been solved. The Rep
arations Commission created by the
Versailles Treaty is supposed to regu-
late the flow of German payments.
The commission knows Germany
can't pay at once or even periodically
without some sort Of loan. Bankers
of all countries have been invited to
give their advice. Mr.. Morgan will
meet his partner, Mr.. Lamont, who
is already in Europe, and together
they will advise what can be done
with an international loan if noated
in America. Certain assurances will
have to be given of stability in Eu-
rope-otherwise American investors
will not feel safe in lending their
money. That means some definite
understanding between France and
Germany so that the reparations ques-
tion will not be a constant source OF
worry and irritation. And when
once arrangements are made foi

Those who suggested the possibility
of paying the indemnity by a public
subscription or even by tax on capi-
tai, had not reflected on this result
which would have been disastrous. 1t
was only by the help of foreign CAPT
tai that we could provide the two bill
lion francs which were still wanting.
To foreign capitalists, therefore, we
appealed, and they have taken a large
interest in our loans. In this way,
by means of the payments effected by
them, we have had large sums at our
disposal in foreign countries. Thus
have we in two years and a half,

THE soldier of peace, as typified
by our police, has little of the thrill
of battle or that ultimate .recogni-

tinguished service on the battle field.
But the New York policeman is un-

by day or night, in the streets or the
alleys, in cellars or out of the way

in the icy waters of the harbor.
THE challenge often comes quickly,
for law and order is both constantly
and secretly threatened. There is no
time for preparation and no comrade
to cheer him on. This is the highest
quality of courage, valor and patri-

glorious because it is rendered pri-
marily to the city rather than to our

RADIO SUPPLANTS
HOMING PIGEONS

Wireless Telephone Mo-
nopolizes Field Long
Held by Birds.
WASHINGTON. May 13.

Radio telephony has practically
eliminated the homing pigeon as
a message carrier. During the
war both the army and navy de-
veloped the breed to the highest
degree. The war left the navy
with hundreds of pigeons for
which 1t had no use.
Recently 1t was decided to get
rid of the surplus birds but not
a single bid was received. officials
expressed the opinion that the
development of the radio tele-
phone has progressed sufficiently
to monopolize the field occupied
by the pigeons.
The evening world., 1922-05-13

Curiosly enough, the danger in the
future doesn't lie on the side OF the
defeated country-Germany. 1t works
just the other way. The victorious
countries are In danger of over-spec-
ulation as a result of the flow of in
demnity money in their direction.
History of the period Immediately fol-
lowing the Franco German war of
1870 shows that Germany, the victor,
suffered a serious financial and eco
nomo crisis because her industries
promptly began to expand on an ex-
travagant basis and the incoming
funds stimulated unwise speculation.
The Government itself spent its
money for public enterprises which
were paid for at high rates of wages
and at absurdly high contract figures.
France, on the other hand, came
through the crisis splendidly, and
financed herself by borrowings of for
eign capital, which she gradually paid
back by increasing her domestic and
foreign trade.
In this connection is is pertinent
to quote from an essay written by
Victor Bonnet in 1878. who says:
Two loans were made, in 1871 and
1872, equalling together the full
amount OF the indemnity besides a
sum of 100000 900 francs for supple
mentary expenses. If we had been able
to raise these loans by recourse to
French capital only that capital,
abundant as 1t was would not have
relieved us from embarrassment II
would still have been necessary to
take two billion francs from our
metallic stock, as we could not pay
the Prussians in any other way than
in specie or its equivalent. Now the
sudden withdrawal of these two bill
ion francs in the situation in which
We were and in which We are to-day

rected without. severe financial
crisis.
