VIII Germany be able to market
without dumping" the surplus prod
ucts she will have to export if she Is
to make reparations payments?
1t is contemplated in the Dawes
plan that the maximum of annual
reparations payments shall not be
reached for five years. When they are
reached they will amount to $500 ,000,-
900 gold marks, or approximately
1925, 100000 annually This amount
will largely be represented by excess
of production in Germany, and this
surplus production will have to be
sold throughout the world in order
that the gold mark value thereof may
be converted into credits abroad in
other currencies, which currencieS
shall be in turn made available to the
nations receiving the reparations pay
mentS.
Must Increase Exports.
But Germany, which formerly en-
joyed about one-eighth of the export
trade of the world, will not have diff
Guilty in producing enough to develop
the one-eighth for export even if it
were possible, without hindering the
beneficiary countries, to get a mar
ket for it. 1t is a fact that Germany's
exports before the war were not suf-
ficient in amount to give her export
credit balances except by the assist
ance of invisible items. Therefore in
order to get an excess credit balance
equal in amount to approximately
S625, 100000 per year, Germany must
not only export all that she exported
prior to the war, but, in addition, she
must increase the total of her worlds
trade by this indicated amount of
$625, ,000,0 900.
We must not forget that Germany's
present industrial position is not the
same as it was before the war. AS
result of the war Germany has
lost 10 per cent of her population,
between IL and 13 per cent of her
area, 26 per cent of her coal, rs per
cent of her iron, 40 per cent of her
blast furnace capacity, 20 per cent
of her zinc ore, besides large indus
trial and mineral resources which
were part of Upper Silesia. In con-
nection with these percentages we
must bear in mind that Germany
has lost some of her basic resources

~ of public interest in politics,
\ hope for revival is found in the
appearance of the National
Democrat a weekly publication OF the
Democratic national committee, to be
devoted to the affairs of the party. 1t
is edited by Frederick w. Steckman,
with Representative Oldfeld. present
chairman of the Democratic congress
sional campaign committee, as chair
man of the advisory board. Dem
ocratic politicians hail the advent of
this organ with approval. AS Demo
cratic harmony at the present time
seems to be split both ways from
the middle" and shot through with
different opinions and advice, the gen.
eral public, so far as its interest may
be concerned with Democratic ma
tional policies, may expect to get some
sidelights on what they appear to be.
There is William j. Bryan advocat-
ing a coalition of the West and South
against the East; there is threatened
revival of the sectional issue and of
the religious question facing the DEM
ocratic party in the pending presf-
Dental candidates., and when Con
greSS meets there will surely arise
broad questions of attitude toward
pending and proposed legislation. 1t
is not expected that personal candi-
dacies will be discussed by the new
paper, however.
The National Democrat in it's first
issue, May 80, presented its platform
as follows:
For the Nation: Equal rights for
all, special privilege to none; reduc-
ton of tariff taxes; reduction of in
come taxes; reduction of State. county
and municipal taxes; economy without
parSimony; honorable peace with all
the world; reciprocal trade relations
with all nations.
For the party: Harmony victory
in 1926 congressional elections
1t is quite evident that an attack
against "sectionalism' is to be fea-
~tured in the victory drive which the
National Democrat is to lead for 1926
and 1928. Such is the keystone of
the policy of the leaders.

great powers materially increased. The stu

Assets and Liabilities.

T HE column in the ledger of life
that engages our deepest in
tereSt is that which is marked,
Il Assets. We are more prone
to consider the value of our
material possessions than we are to
think of the liabilities that accrue as
the result of our neglect of things
spiritual.
One of the most striking and gra-
phic stories told by Christ illustrates
the point. 1t is contained in the
twelfth chapter of Saint Luke's
Gospel from the sixteenth to the
twenty-f1rst verses. In it he describes
certain rich man whose ground
yielded such great crops that he
found his buildings inadequate to hold
them. AS result, he determined to
build greater barns there to bestow
his fruits and his goods. There was
nothing improvident in this course.
His error in judgment came when
with self fcongratulation he said to
himself, Thou hast much goods laid
up for many years; take thine ease,
eat, drink and be merry" His whole
conception of life seemed to be the ac-
QUESTION and possession of things.
He thought he could build against
future embarraSsments or miSfortuneS
by the accumulation of material pos
sessions. At this junCture of the story
Jesus declared that God said unto
him, Thou fool, this night thy soul
shall be required of thee; then whose
shall those things be, which thou hast
provided?''
y X
Illustrations in modern life are not
lacking to confirm the story related
by Christ. On every hand we witness
the tendency to unduly magnify the
value of things. Christ did not in
weigh against the legitimate acquisi-
ton of worldly possessions. He did
condemn the tendency to make them
OF primary Importance. He did main
tain that what a man gained of world
ly things at the expense of his
spiritual well-being in the end proved
a costly expenditure of energy and
toll. There is no consistent reason,
In Christ's judgment, why we should
not love and seek to acquire the best
the world has to give. On the other
hand there is every consistent reason
why we should not unduly magnify
the worlds gifts at the expense of
the soul.
One of the most startling disclo-
sures of miscalculated and unbal-
anced living is witnessed in the daily
reports of men and women who, in
their prime. break under the strain
