found. Both France and Germany
have made mistakes with respect to
reparations, but while each is per-
sistent in calling attention to the mis-
takes Of the other, neither is willing to
admit itself otherwise than blameless.
And while each is striving at whatever
cost to "save its face" both are head
ed for a smash from which all the
world is bound to suffer.
The laborites demand that either
the United States or the league Of ma
tions be called upon to act as arbiter
in settlement Of the problem Of repa-
rations. Unfortunately, the United
States. at least, cannot act upon in
vitation of the labor parliamentarians.
This government has made it plain
that it stands ready to use its good
offices, but first there must be present
two prerequisites now conspicuously
lacking. The first is willingness by
the parties in interest to submit their
cause to arbitration, and the second
a formal expression by these govern
ments Of desire that America assume
the role of arbiter. Until these missing
elements are present, urgings from
Europe and demands in this country
that the United States inject itself
into the controversy will be equally
in vain.

The Amaryllis in Favor.

The popularity Of a flower show.
and of the amaryllis show in particu-
lar, may be gagged by the attendance
figures. OF the amaryllis show 1t was
said that $3.50 persons visited it on
Sunday. Roughly. that would be one
visitor every two and one-half seconds
of the time the flowers were on ex-
hibition from 9 am. to 9 pm. This
was not a flower show in the broadest
sense, being an exhibit Of a number
of varieties Of the same species and
the difference between the varieties
being mainly in color rather than in
form. The brilliance Of the flowers
seems to have caught the public fancy,
and it may be that we will have an
amaryllis boom during which It will be
thought that no home will be COM
plete without an amaryllis, just as a
few years ago it seemed that every
home must have a rubber plant.

For Safety in the Streets.

Recent action by firms operating
fleets of automobiles will give the
public an opportunity of helping to
enforce traffic regulations. This action
of various firms is not expected to
make the streets safe, but it is
move toward safety. All business firms
using automobiles should cooperate
for the benefit of the public and for
the purpose Of making their employees
careful and rule-obeying, and wedding
out those who are careless or rule
defying.' This new group, names Of
members of which have been given in
the news columns, co-operates with
the Washington Safety Council, and
each member of the group invites a
written report of any infringement of
traffic rule by an employe. Carried
out, this plan will have a helpful eff
feet. 1t will give each firm a check on
its drivers. Could the plan be entered
into by all firms sending machines
through the streets a material reduc-
ton in the number of accidents ought
to be brought about.

craft. The State Department has re-
port of a commission which met at
The Hague to consider this question,
and that report may be the basis for
an international conference called by
this, government to formulate and
agree on rules for use Of the air.
Those interested in wireless have a
keen understanding of the need of air
rules. Messages that should go
through ought to have a clear track.
Already there is great disturbance be-
cause of interference. Commercial
broadcasting stations complain of it,,
and it is discouraging to radio users.
Though the situation at present is in
convenient rather than serious it
might easily become grave. There is
meeting in Washington now Of the
National Radio Chamber Of Commerce
for the purpose of working out regu-
lations and making suggestions for
the prevention of interference. This is
a technical matter, and it is a safe
conjecture that the radio experts will
solve the problems that are before

The American Way,

In striking contrast to the friction
created by Frances methods of collect
ing reparations from Germany is the
picture presented Of the negotiations
of the United States in securing re-
endorsement for the expenses Of
American occupation Of the Rhineland
under the armistice stipulations.
Eliot Wadsworth, assistant secretary
of the Treasury Of the United States,
is the representative Of this govern
ment in the conferences now being
held in Paris. the proceedings Of which
promise to bring about an amicable
settlement, so based upon equity as to
leave this country satisfied and both
Germany and our late allies lacking
any ground for resentment or bitter
ness.
An Associated Press dispatch from
Paris quotes Assistant Secretary
Wadsworth as expressing optimism
with regard to the ultimate outcome
Of the negotiations, although, since
the allied powers had not yet formu-
lated definite proposals as to the
method of payment to the United
States, he could not go into details.
The details yet to be dealt with COM
prise the number OF installment pay
ments: how they are to be paid; what
priority would be given the United
States; whether the United States
should be given certain percentage
of German reparations payments and
how Belgium's priority will be af-
fected.
One suggestion advanced is the pay
ment of s20,O00,0OO annually for
twelve years. While Mr.. Wadsworth
is of opinion that such sum is but a
slight percentage of Germany's real
ability to pay, he indicated that this
belief would not operate to balk a set.
tlement. This expression may be re.
garded as indicative of the disposition
is reflective Of the attitude of the peo-
pie of this country. A similar spirit
was manifest in the acceptance by our
citizens of the terms Of the British
debt settlement, regarded as very gen
erous to Great Britain. The object
then was to ''get the settlement be-
hind u.s." and Assistant Secretary
Wadsworth seems wisely inclined to
the same policy in the current nego.
tiations.
