so far as it has gone with its pro-
gram of fiscal reform. The attitude
of the French people" toward the 70
per cent tax increase will not be de-
termined; however. until the spring
elections. Then it. will be decided one
way or the other whether this new tax
burden, on top of the tremendous In
crease in the cost of living, will have
been too great for French patience and
patriotism to stand.

New French Securities Inevitable.
The 20 per cent tax increase and
the curtailment in reconstruction
work will contribute five billions to-
ward helping out the French treas
ury position, but the question is
whether this will be sufficient. Two
months ago 1t estimated that the
extraordinary credit, which, until re-
charging up to visionary German
reparations. would amount to nearly
twelve billions in 1924, and that, add
ing in the loans of outside organiZa-
tions like the Credit Rationale, the
total extraordinary outlay this year
would amount to over eighteen bill
lions. The present reform bill has
cut these proposed expenditures down
only one billion, increasing revenue
through taxation by four billions. 1t
is hard to see. under these circum-
stances, how further resort to new
security isues can be prevented.
Too Many Loana Made.
On the subject Of these internal
loans and the part they have played
in dragging down French finances, a
recent editorial in the newspa per
Echo de Paris had this to say: For
five years we have been practicins
loans as Germany practiced the ennis
sion of paper money. Continual bor-
rowing, like the continual issue Of
paper, means imitation"
This very trunk analysis of the
situation is refreshing after the mass
of foolish and disingenuous express
sions which have been coming from
French sources for the last six
months.

Special Dispatch to The Star,
NEW YORK, February 23.--lt is
to be said of the stock market of
the past week that there has been
little relation between price fuctua-
tions and general business conditions.
Stocks. at last months top, were. for
the time being, too high. They had
gone up faster and further than the
facts Of the situation justified. A
moderate degree of overspecuiation
lad crept in. These circumstances
called for u good sized reaction re-
gardless OF the fact. that the trade
outlook continued In the main favor
able and the banking and credit po-
sition exceptionally strong.
Certain speculative interests which
had been extravagantly optimistic
up to short time ago, predicting
all sorts of good things for the
markets of 1924. seized upon the "oil
scandal" as Il reason for reversing
their attitude.
Real Values Little Changed.
Tho oil inquiry occupied such a
commanding place in the news of the
day that it was the obvious thing to
fit in with it the break of the stock
market This is what most of the
first page stories on Wall street ac-
tually did. BIt in responsible quar-
ters il was realized all along that
nothing which had been or would be
brought out at Washington could
have great effect upon security val
ueS.
In the condition the speculative
structure was two months ago before
there had been a lot of important
distribution Of stocks it Is doubtful
if the matter would have had any in
fiuence at all. But the market OF
ten days ago, being overripe for re-
action, was ready to magnify any
| thing unfavorable that happened to
come long.
Within the last few days things
have righted themselves somewhat
and the excitement over Teapot
Dome" and the California oil leases
has partly subsided.

BY the Associated Press.
ST. LOUIS, February 2S.-The in
fiuence of the life of George Wash
ington and of his principles through
out the life of the American people
was declared to be potent one by
Robert F.. Lee Saner of Dallas, Tex,
president of the American Bar Asso-
citation and chairman of it's commit
tee on American citizenship, in an ad-
dress here last night before the Sons
of the American Revolution.
THE influence of Washington
throughout the life of the American
people has been a potent one" Mr..
Saner said. 1T seems, however, that
we are departing, from those princi-
pies for which he fought so gallantly
and so bravely,' and I desire to take
you back to his conception of the OBJ
legations of the American people to
the government and to the Constitu-
ton, realizing that this was his
legacy, and that If our nation is to
endure we must understand and pre-
serve that legacy.
