UNCLE SHYLOCK
Urges Cancellation of
All War Debts
especial to Tho Daily worker)


LONDON, July 25.-Altho some
English papers are uttering words OF
caution against the policy of the Daily
Mail, the property of Lord Rother-
mere, of launching attacks against the
United States as a ShYock, that pa
per again utters an editorial blast in
greeting Andrew Mellon, secretary of
the United States treasury, demanding
that the whole of the debts owed by
Europe to the United States be can
celled.
'In the present disturbed state of
European cuITencies and trade 1t. may
be necessary to explain to the United
States government that while our pay
ment of interest ON our debt to the
United States and the instruments on
the principal Is a gesture of good will,
It cannot be maintained If Great Brit
ain Is to receive nothing from her
Debtors" the editorial continues.
Win Crush Industry,
'-rhe burden VIII be one far beyond
their capacity to bear; indeed, there N
no example of nation In ancient or
modern times paying such an amount
to q foreign country,
eff there Is only the extremely re-
mote chance of France and Italy being
able to pay US any fraction of what
they owe us, then our heavy payments
to the United States must completely
crush our Industries.
May Flood u. S. with Goods.
ut must be remembered that prac-
ticaIly every penny Germany pays In
reparations, supposing she ever full
fills the terms of the Dawes plan, will
go to the United States, not to the
European allies of America, who
fought, bled, and suffered and now
sit overwhelmed with debt. with their
economic structures shaken from the
foundation to the summit by these
violent currency troubles.
Tn the long run we cannot pay the
United States unless we export to her
more than we import from her.
~As we said from the first, when
this debt question was raised five
years ago, 1t always has been our firm
conviction, tho we lose by 1t more
than any other country, that there Is
only one solution to the problem,
which is simultaneously to cancel all
war debts between the allies and give
Europe a chance.''

Great interest has been aroused in
the. summer social circles along the
coast here in the approaching pre-
lirafnary trial of Alphonse Francis
Austin Smith, who is charged with
the murder of~JUhn Adams Derham.
a famous athlete.
Smith. who as a dashing young
army officer married Miss Ruth
Wynne, daughter Of the late Rob
ert j. Wynrle, Postmaster General
in the Roosevelt administration,
was divorced in 1922 and married
Miss Catherine White in New York.
Derham, who had long been an
intimate OF Smiths, died after he
had been thrashed and shot. It is
alleged that the shooting was done
by Smith after a quarrel with
Derham. regarding the attention
Derham paid to Smiths wife.
When arrested Smith denied the
murder charge and it is expected
that he will offer "A plea Of self
defense, inasmuch as he himself
suffered considerably in the quarrel
which preceded the shooting.
An erroneous report was circn-
lated on Saturday stating that
Smith had married the daughter of
former Attorney General Charles

Cost of Little Things.

1t is an old-fashioned method OF
preaching economy to say, "Watch out
for the little things and the big ones
will take care of themselves" or Save
the PENNIES and you'll have dollars to
spend"
AS a. matter Of fact, most people
don't place much credence in that
sort Of talk nowadays. 1T is ridicu-
lous, for instance. to talk about saw
ing matches in order to have money
to buy q mantel clock, fountain pen
real money, while you can get all the
matches you want for cent! Any
way, why take the JOY out Of life by
pinching on matches and little things
like that"
Such is the attitude Of the average
modern spender, and housewives who
go shopping are no exception.
Perhaps that Is all just as 1t should
be. Certainly many of the little mex
pensive things give us more satisfac-
tion for the money than many big
things. That's one of the explanations
of the great success of 10-cent stores
Still. it's equally true that we're
fooled a lot of times as to how much
we do spend for the little things as
compared to the big things. Speaking
of matches. how many people, do you
think, realize that the average Ameri-
can spends more of his income for
matches than he does for fountain
pens? Much more than he does for
musical Instruments, except pianos?
And that almost the same amount OF
money in this country goes for matches
as for clocks? To prove il we have

The device of the lion and the
sun has been used as an emblem OIL
royalty for many centuries, ana seems
TO have been connected with astroi-
ogv for which the ancient Persians
were famous. They had a saying
that he who was born when the sun
had reached the Zodiacal sign OF the
lion would be king. This emblem
was used on some of the early coins
OF the Persian empire and is deh-
nitely connected by legend with Sui
tan Ghyath Adm in the thirteenth
century. According to this story, ne
wished to honor his much loved
queen by placing their names To-
gether on the coinage. 1t had never
been considered quite suitable that
"A woman should be given this par
ticular honor. and it was advised
that he should rather adopt the fig-
ures of the lion and the sun. which
related to both their horoscopes. This
legend perhaps explains why the
