Finances of Germany
Still a Puzzle to Many

That the startling Transformations
In German finance are still unclear to
certain Americans is the impression
derived from letter which the Amer

received from an irate citizen Of the

preston that money he deposited
some years ago in a German bank
ought to be refunded to him at its
face value. his letter runs:

BY DAVID l. WALSH,

Former Governor of Massachusetts and Recent
United States Senator.
/<"HE two great natural and historical
enemies of all republics are open vio-,
lence and insidious corruption"
s5:. Every thoughtful person who has
had any political experience appreciates the
force of that epigram.
Are there any insidious forces tending to
contaminate the purity Of legislation in the
United States Senate?
There forces that seek to influence
members of the Senate. Senator'S are under
constant pressure from various sources to sup
port this or that side Of every controversy.
The influences surrounding Senator at Wash
ing, he strives to perform his duty, may be
conveniently classified into four groups:
They are: J. strong and sinister organized
propaganda, actuAted by purely self-interest;
2 the lobby: 3. the social life, and 4, Executive
pressure.
Pressure by Propaganda
The average American citizen has con-
ception of the tremendous amount Of pressure
at times exerted upon public servants In Wash
ington through propaganda. The propaganda
is not always one-sided, but those interests
which have the largest pocketbooks and can
nay the largest number Of solicitors and the
most expensive printing bills have decided
advantage.
OF them form letters, pour in upon Senator'S
from their constituents. It is entirely proper and
indeed deeirable, for constituents to keep their
Senator informed Of their honest, disinterested
views on pending legislation. The right of as
sociations and bodies Of men and women who
feel that their personal interests are involved
openly and squarely to place themselves on
record cannot be denied. But the letters sent
to a Senator are often coercive in their intent
They frequently demand compliance with the,
demands Of the authors and carry veiied
threats to make their influence seem more i'm
pressive.
Grind Private Axes.
Chambers OF commerce, social and financial
clubs Of various kinds send resolutions demand
ing action favorable to the side which some
paid prcpagandist, hve times out of six repre-
senting interests which have private axes to
grind, has presented to them.
This practice was little known until recent
ly. It has reached such proportions ct times
that the mails pouring into the ofsces Of vari-
GUS Senators have clogged all the legitimate
business OF q Senator'S office.
The worst feature Of this IL that most Of
those who become innocent propes esandists have
never read the proposed legislation and have
almost invariably heard only one side Of the
question
The number of insulting letters that come
to public man during these propaganda waves
II surprisingly large. The late Senator Lodge
informed ma that one vote which he cast dur
ing the last year Of his life, his vote against
sust1ining the bonus veto, = question "a which

the assembling of the Sixty-ninth
Congress the commission will formu-

become the basis Of recommendations
to Congress either to revise the rates

Pay Raise to Stand.
Under no circumstances Is there
any intention on the part of either
the congressional commission of the
Post Office Department to tamper with
the increase i'm pay granted to the
postal employees. This amounts to
$S8 ,000, 900 a year. 1t does not begin
to be covered by the increased rates,
according to Postmaster General New,
who estimates that these will produce
not more than $50, 900 900 or $40.
000, 900 year. The resultant deficit
simply has to be added to the annual
deficiency at which the Postal Service
operates. But Uncle Sam is certain
to continue to bear any deficit neces-
STATED by keeping up wages of the
postal servants to the point to which
| they are now raised. There is no
precedent that anybody in Washing
ton can remember for reducing Gov
ernment pay that once has been
boosted.
Mr.. New would like to see the
postal employees who do night work
get more money than day workers
receive. There is understood to be
| some differences of opinion among the
employees themselves as to whether
higher pay or a 6h hour day" for
night work is preferable. The Post
| master Generals belief is that there
ought to be differential in the form
OF more pay.
Several Months Needed.
Postmaster General New is already
computing in detail the effect of the
new rates on postal receipts, but he
! does not think anything really au-
thoritative or significant will be avail
able until receipts for June, July and
August are in hand and tabulated.
He expects to be able to submit a
statement based upon them to the
joint commissions final sessions in
the autumn.
Throughout the country large users
| of the mails, especially of postal
cards, discounted the enactment of
higher rates and stocked up on lower
grades Of postage for matter that
they could send out before April IS.
The postmaster of New York City
reported that one day, just prior to
April Is, a firm mailed 5000, ,000 postal

to avoid sending them out with l Il =
cent stamp after April Is. The Post
Office. Department will not be in
position for several months to tell
to just what extent the country at
large took time by the forelock as
the wholesale user of postal cards in
New York did.
Uncle Sans postal service, the
biggest business in the world, now
costs 500. .000. .000s a year. 1t en-
ploys 100000 people. 1t is increas-
ing at the rate of about $50. .000. 900 a
year. By 1929 the Post Office De-
partment will be close to a 81 ,000.-
000, ,000-a-year concern. The postal
authorities, who also will be heard
by the congressional commission, are
naturally anxious that rates shall
be maintained at point that will re-
duce deficits to the minimum.

BY JAMES BROWN SCOTT,
President American Institute of In
ternatiOnal Law.

/ There is no permanent guarantee OF
| material security expressed in terms
/ OF armies, navies and economic pres
! sure: the only permanent guarantee is
! justice expressed in terms of law.
| But the justice the world needs is
not the justice of a group of individ
| uals or indeed of a group of states. II
| Is the justice of the civilized world
expressed in rules of law by repre-
sentatives Of the nations meeting in
| conference for this purpose, not in a
| single meeting, this year or next year
| but in a series of meetings from time
| to time in order to extend the empire
! OF law, as The Hague conferences
| say, and, "to record in an interna.
| tfonal agreement the principles OF
| equity and right on which are based
| the security Of states and the welfare
of peoples"
This is the proposal OF former Sec
! retary of State Hughes, In his recent
| speech before the American Society
of International Law. In Mr.. Hughes
opinion, the agreement of the nations
upon the principles of equity and right
should be embodied in a series of prof.
ects which, taken together, will foDm
a code of international law, and he
therefore advocates the codiflcation of
International law in a. series Of in.
ternational conferences in which all
nations accepting and applying inter.
national law are to be represented and
through their representatives take
part in framing this universal law
Believing that it was the duty Of the
United States to take part with the
other nations in codifying the rules of
justice which should control their ac-
tions, he was anxious that the United
States should begin to do so at the
easiest possible moment.
These international law conferences
would be In succession to The Hague
peace conferences, but would differ
ton would be made In advance by
scientific bodies, such as the insti-
tutes and societies of international
law. While, however, proposing an
agreement upon rules Of law through
conferences, Mr.. Hughes also favored
the development of law through courts
Of justice. especially through the Per-
manent Court Of international JUS
tice, fortunately established at The
Hague, and ho earnestly urged the ad-
herence OF the United States to this
court az proposed by President Hard
ing and President Coolidge, and, had
not modesty prevented, he would have
said, an suggested by Secretary
Hughes.
In word, Mr.. Hughes advocated In
his address q law of nations based
upon justice expressed in rules OF
law devised by the nations In con-
ference assembled, its interpretation
by the Permanent Court OF Interna-
tional Justice, and the participation Of
the United States in both as privi-
lege and - solemn duty. The

Four Strong Influences Ready to Sway
Senators From Firm Courses, Says Walsh

particularly successful with individual .Sena-
tors. change has taken place which, the
American people do not yet fully appreciate.
The lobby works today through political or
ganizations rather than through the slow, un.
certain method of merely dealing with an "or-
binary" Senator. Get the leaders" interested
in the legislation desired. That is the prudent
way to proceed today. Incidentally, Of course,
the individual Senator must be impressed with
the argument for and against "the righteous
ness OF the cause"
Activities Of Social Lobby.
What of the social lobby? Does the social
life Of Washington affect a Senator's official
attitude? To what extent do women in the
homes of men in high official position seek to
influence Senator's? Are dinner parties given
to promote special causes and particular can
didates upon which Senators must make de-
cisions?,
To limited degree, yes; but not effectively,
for the socially inclined Senator usually, be-
cause Of his very environment, votes the way
his social friends would vote were they in the
Senate. Strong men, and the Senate il full Of
them, are not influenced by tea gossip" or
the prejudices Of society matrons on public
questions. That attempts are made through
social activities to influence some Senators is
unquestionably true. However, it is only at
certain periods that one hears of great activity
. in the social lobby"
The idea that the social lobby is effective
presupposes that most Senators are active So
clally. The fact Is that most Senators never
enter the social life of Washington. mean
the 'gided" social life. This is chiefly a pre-.
rogative Of the wealthy Senators. To be in
Washington society, as anywhere else YOU
must entertain well as be entertained This
Is expensive The salary and income OF many
Senators forbid It.
The public question that In recent years
stirred the social life Of Washington more than
any other that have observed was the SOL
diers bonus.
During the discussion. of that subject IN the
Senate you could not 60 to a dinner table with.
out hearing pretty severe denunciation OF those
Senators who support ted the bonus They were
branded "unpair riotic. 2; ''deEna xokues, and

those dinners. The whole estimate q ! mans
public career seemed to be measured by the
social group Of Washington according to his
attitude On this one question. The sub3sct was
always discussed with extreme bitterness.
Families Have influence.
OF course the wives and members Of the
family Of q Senator who is active socially have
some influence at times on the senatorial vote
