Instead of letting ourselves be daz-

instead of preaching morals here and

are suffering and we must seek by
cooperation to lessen these suffer-
ings.

On Friday the newspapers report
Americas national wealth has in

dollars between 1922 and 1926.
On Saturday the cables report that
America is angered by reports of
European hostility and is beginning
to consider whether it would not be
best to cancel all war debts, to pay
no more attention too this ungrateful
continent, and merely to sell it as
much raw materials and wares as pos
sible.
The last of these six reports is the
most improbable. A pedagogue who
would repay in gratitude a present of
a dozen billion dollars would be pre-
ciSely as ignorant as a pacifist who
attempted to make people hate war
by himself assuming all the costs of
war.
Money used for paying debts can
not simultaneously be employed for
buying cotton, copper or foodstuffs,
and a country that protects itself by
big tariffs and meets its own require
ments cannot hope to benefit by its
products through exchange business.
The land of commercial genuiseS of
the Hartman type will one day face
the question whether it is not more
important to sell the products of it's
man power than to collect old debts.

BIG ATTRACTION AT PALACE

The triple attraction at the New Palace for the first half of this week continues to draw big despite the weather. Rudolph Valentino in "The Eagle" is making q host of new friends with his remarkable characterization Of a Russian Cos sack which is a new departure for this popular star. In The Eagle" Valentino is cast for the first time in a role that has all the earmarks Of comedy. Fleeing from the TO- mantle advances of the Czarina an3 an injustice done 10 his father, Valentino becomes a lone bandit and through his mysteriously swift movements earns the title Of "The Eagle" His mortal enemy is the father of the girl of his dreams and thereby hangs many an interesting scene which makes The Eagle" such q popular story.
 The five acts of vaudeville add their share to the entertaining value of the pill. DeWilfred and Bohman open the bill with a pleasing danc- ing number and are followed by "The Shuffle Along Four" who are very entertaining with their musi-
