As mater OF fact, only one cause
can depreciate any nations currency.
1t is the same cause that destroys an
individuals credit. 1t consists of
paying out more money than is being
taken in. The French government is
not paying its way. Taxation is not
sufficient to meet expenses. The de-
fict for the coming year is estimated
at twelve billion francs. Yet, in the
face of this poverty-stricken sign,
France has just loaned 100000, 900
francs to Czecho-Slovakia and AGO.
100000 francs to Poland to bind
those countries to her as military al
les. This is the Poincare policy of
matching empty Golfers with prepara-
tions for another war.
The Collapse Was Inevitable.
Collapse has been inevitable from
the first, for Premier Poincare is like
a merchant who has added a story to
his building to equal each years
deficit.
By some temporary juggling, it is
barely possible the French govern
ment may arrest for the moment the
francs fall. But whatever device
to be taken can only have a tempo
rary effect. There is no permanent
cure for France except to increase
taxation and reduce the war indem-
nifty to a sum Germany can pay. The
longer this is delayed the worse will
be the eventual catastrophe.
The best sign that it may not be
long delayed is the desperate effort
of French capital to get out of the
country as German capital fled from
Germany at the sign Of the lettering
mark French fnanciers realize the
inevitable is upon them and the poll
ticians must soon take notice. For
in the background is M. Clemenceau,
who predicted it as it is happening.
The French Chamber of Deputies
gave Premier Poincare's govern
ment vote of confidence this after
noon. 3S8 to 1879. on the question of
drastic government measures to ar
rest the fall of the franc.

"The dangers Of misrepresentation
multiply as we increase our strength
The nearer we get to the seat of
power, the more insistent and I'M

condition only if our supporters will

Help us get the million circula-

SOUTH DAKOTA MAYOR
 GIVES SOUND ADVICE
ISSUED REGARD ING PROSPERITY-TALKS
 MAN TO MAN

SUMMIT, s. D., Nov. 19-An unus- ual proclamation was issued to resi- dents of this village by Olaf Melby, mayor and pioneer merchant. This section of South Dakota has harvest ed one of the biggest crops in it's his- tory and MT. Melby in a message di- rected to the farmers of his commun- lty, urged them to take advantage of the bounteous crops and high grain prices to recover and insure their sta bility.
 "Now that we have harvested the greatest crop in twenty years, with prices above normal, 1 wish to speak to you as man to man," Mayor Melby wrote. First, pay your obligations. For debts are like log jam. Every dollar paid lessens the amount, as it pays the merchant, the jobber, the manufacturer, the banker.
 Do not go into debt. Interest will kill the best individual in the community. Do not work your life out for the other fellow. Renters who pay up their obligations this fall, ought to buy a farm. But do not pay a thousand dollars down on an $8,00O obligation. If you cannot pay one-third down, buy forty acres in- stead. Land will never be so cheap again in our time. Buy a home, a farm, a means of livelihood for your self and your family.
 Do not expect to get rich quick. You cannot make any money unless you invest it in your own business. Do not give up the old COW or the hogs and sheep. They require a little care that means work, but they never will fail.
 Your home people are interested in ycu and your welfare. Do not let strangers tell you what to do. Bet ter ask your neighbor, banker or mer- chant. Outsiders only want your mon ey. Stick to your community and you and your family will wear dia- monds."

WRANGELL, ALASKA ENJOYS
 PROSPEROUS SEASON, 1924

J. w. Prichett, editor and publish CT of the Wrangell Weekly Sentinel is spending few days in Ketchikan While there, in an interview with the Chronicle said that business condi tions in the Stikine river town have been better than those of previous years. The cold storage plant that has been erected in Wrangell by pri vate interests is doing such a tre mendous storage business that plans are being drawn for an extension to the plant.
 The breakwater, in Wrangell harbo1 is about completed, stated the edi tor, and is already affording the fish ermen of that vicinity the benefit ol which it is purposed.
 The entire town is all primed LII oyer the Casiar strike, made this fall, and the business men are tun ing up their stocks to play the mas ter role in spring when it is ex pected a stampede will be on. The Harrington Transportation Co. which has boats plying the Stikine river is planning on overhauling theil scows and stern-wheelers earlier thar in previous years owing to the vol ume of business in sight They ex pect to fix their crafts in February 1 instead Of in May, heretofore. They plan to operate at least three boat. as soon as river navigation opens In summing up the entire Wran gell situation, MT. Prichett said tha the town was not exactly boomin, in any way, but that very prosper ous season has been enjoyed by all Evidence of this fact is easily point ed out by the new buildings and res idences that are in the shape o near-completiOn.

EXTRA SESSION
 CONGRESS MAY
 BE CALLED SOON

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-It is unofficially stated in administration circles that no efforts will be made to bring about further tax reduction in the coming short session of Con- gress. Secretary of the Treasury Andrew w Mellon conferred with President Coolidge yesterday anG it is understood they discussed the ad- visibility of reopening the tax ques- tion in the coming three months ses- sion. They felt that with the new law just going into effect such a procedure would be impracticahle. This supposition coincides with the statement made today by Senator Borah who suggested an extra ses- sion to be convened immediately after March fourth and listed tax reduction as one of the matters to be considered at an extra session. Borah had seen Coolidge before he made his announcement.

CLOSED SEASON KEEPS
 PRCSPECTORS FROM HILLS

John P. Miller, the McGrath oper- ator who left for the States on yes terday's boat, stated that the closed season on marten or beaver keep the prospectors from the hills. He declares that heretofore the prospec- tor could pick up a few marten and mink and help out on his expenses, but the way the fur laws are now administered the prospector can do nothing.
 Conditions on the Kuskokwim, said Mir. Miller, were very good this year, several new dredges being plac- ed in operation on Canes creek, and other industries coming into the dis trict. A new cold storage is to be built, for storing reindeer carcasses, and this will greatly stimulate this industry. The season this year was short and many miners had small dumps but the cleanup was very sat isfactory.

ESCAPES DEATH TWICE

Lewis Samuelson, the young son of a Petersburg resident escaped death twice one day last week. He lighted a fire in the galley of his fathers boat using gasoline instead of kero- sene. When the boat caught fire the boy lowered himself over the side with a rope, and when the flames be- came too hot was forced to let loose. He could not swim, but somehow managed to keep afloat. His father started to his rescue and capsized the skiff. The boy and his father were picked up by another man.
