Those physicians who have the
truly scientific type of mind, and W&o
approach their cases in a spirit of in
quiry. are waking up to an old idea
now being given a new development.
1t is the idea of the specific relation
ship between the human constitution
and disease.
Viewed from this aspect" as an
eminent medical man has recently
said, disease ceases to be an entity
in itself, a thing, as it were, added to
or carried by man. and becomes,
rather. the inevitable expression of
conflict between unique individuality
and an adverse specific force of en-
vironmeni.'
Not only scientifically-min ply
sicians. but students of human hi
oIogy. especially students Of heridity.
are turning their attention this mat
ter. They find that there is spe
cific relationship between general
bodily makeup and a predisposition to
certain types Of disease. Such chaC-
ecteristics as stature, the shape of the
head, the proportions of the skelton,
etc, may seem to have nothing TO do
with the causes Of disease, but the re-
lationship is there. nevertheless.
Even those structural differences
among men that have been looked on
as marks for distinguishing one
branch of the human from another
seem to have less real significance

From Chicago I went 70 Los An

Generosity and Fair Dealing, Sans

by Senator Capper.

American taxpayers of this unjust
burden.
How absurd is the picture of Uncle
Sam as a shylock demanding his
usury.
Entirely in keeping with the usages
of war, the European allies dema nded
of the defeated powers reparations
sufficient in part at least to indemnify
the victors for the momentary cost of
their participation in the war. But
Uncle Sam. with generosity unparal
leled in history. paid his own share of
the wars cost and refused to take
any of the Spoils.
And now that the American Gov
ernment, out of consideration for its
taxpayers who paid for Americas
share of the war and who gave
bounteously to every appeal for war
relief in Europe. insists upon the
funding of war debts justly due, the
intimation that Uncle Sam is trying
TO extort a profit from his former
allies, indicates ingratitude if not bad
faith.
Spoils Not Shared by L. s.
America refused any share in the
reparations from Germany and took
no territory as a fee of victory.
England received 1,607,053 square
miles of conquered territory. occupied
by 35 millians of people and enriched
with some of the most valuable ma
tural resources in the world. Lloyd
George reported to the British Parlia-
ment that the outstanding feature of
the peace treaty is that ii puts the
British Empire at the highest point
that it has ever reached in regard to
territorial and world influence"
France acquired 402,3 1872 square
miles of territory, people by 4,000,o 900
industrious folk. France gained vast

won AlSace-Lorraine, a trea sure house
of natural resources.
Furthermore, it is estimated by the
Institute of Economics that prior TO
the acceptance of the Dawes plan
Germany had paid the victors in cash
and in kind $500 900, 900.
However, il is not question of
what any nation obtained as its share
of the fruits of victory. But that in
an hour when hope of victory was re-
motest. when the enemy thundered at
the gates of Paris, when his Zeppelins
menaced London. when his gray le

From year to year the progress made
by Japan is amazing. One of the ways
in which it is is clearly shown is in
the advance of education. There are
now eight well-equipped national uni.
versfties where 20 years ago there was
one. Besides these. there are a half
dozen institutions on private founda-
tion fairly deserving the name of uni
versity.
Japan is permeated by scholars and
business men who have already a fair
comprehension of our purposes and
ways. Especially influential among
these are the students educated in
America and England. These men,
each thoroughly loyal to his alma
mater, are prominent as teachers, ad
ministrators and engineers, and wholly
adverse to the militarist ideals which
rule certain operations in Japan. 1t

YASHINGTON'S suggestion
to the European nations
wv which owe us $4,000 600. :
600 of defaulted war debt
that the hour has come
Tor a definite understanding bout
payment is timely and just
During these seven years of de-
fault the American taxpayer has
paid 1900, 600, 900 in interest on these
debts because his Government had
pledged the credit and honor of it's
citizens as sureties that the interest
and principal of these war bonds
would be paid.
L. >. Government Patient.
The American Government has been
patient and considerate with the
debtor nations They have been
given ample time to come forward
and arrange for a settlement.
Great Britain. Poland. Lithuania
and Hungary have acknowledged
their Indebtedness and have entered
into definite commitments for eventu-
ally squaring their accounts. The
terms were generous.
But other debtor nations. France.
Italy. Belgium. CZeChoslovakia. ES-
thonia, Greece, JuSoslavia. Latvia and
Rumania. have made no settlement.
As security for their obligation the
American Government has only their
word pledged at a time when the re-
fuSal of their appeals for aSsiSta nee
would have brought them ruin and
defeat.
Both here and abroad a propaganda
for wiping out these debts by cancel
lation persists. That propaganda has
no official sanction in this country,
and the sooner European govern
ments come to a clear understanding
of this fact the sooner the only ad-
justment possible in honor will be
effected
The Washington Government can
not sanction cancellation without re-
pudiation of its pledge to its citizens.
The Washington Government urged
the people TO buy Liberty bonds, and
war securities. 1t pledged its credit
for the repayment of these loans. Out
Of the proceeds Of these loans the
Washington Government advanced
war credits To the allies. The allies
pledged repayment.
Citizens Would Be Losers.
For Ithe Washington Government
now Il sanction cancellation of these
debts would be nothing less than 10
default its word TO its citizens. and
to charge these citizens with the cost
of that default.
The bonds must he paid. If the
European beneticiaries of the loans do
not pay. the American taxpayers must
pay. That's the long and short of the
business. President Coolidge so un-
derstands it. In his study TO reduce
costs of government the President
will spare no effort to relieve the

Situation In Minnesota.
Clifford L. Hilton, attorney general of Min
nesota, says
Il cannot advise to the exact number of
laws in the State of Minnesota. However.
the General Statutes of Minnesota for the
year 1928 contain 10,981 sections found in
107 chapters. OF course, in many instances
several of these sections were found In one
act OF the Legislature.
F.. c. Larson private secretary to Gov.
Sorlie of North Dakota, answers the inquiry
as to the number of laws in effect in his
State by saying: 1T would be purely guess
work and your guess is just as good as ours
In PENNSYLVANIA, 1T would require an endless

From Illinois word from the gov

Thus the British are rather awk

danger of becoming victims of French
policy. if that policy should be ag-
gressive; in sense they are com
mitted to support France, right or
wrong. Thus patiently it becomes a

British to exercise sufficient influence
upon French policy to prevent war.
And in reality it becomes the mission
of Britain to keep the peace between
