President Coolidge holds doggedly to the course which has been pur- sued, but there are evidences he is weakening. His latest claim, that such supervision is involved in the conduct of foreign affairs and there fore possessing constitutional au- thority, has been ridiculed by Senator Glass. former secretary Of the treasury. The policy perhaps cannot withstand much more ridi- cule of such a biting nature.
 Wall street bankers, although not forced to consider the wishes Of Washington as determining whether a loan should be made, have been carefully considering the admins tratiou's wishes, perhaps in order not 10 add to the worries of the President.
 Yet there is reason to think that the idea underlying the Presidents stand is d good one. irrespective of whether it is being properly executed through the exercise Of executive in fuence. The huge sums that have been loaned to European nations since the war are relatively just as heavy a drain upon them as the ori- ginal war debts. France so far has i failed to refund her wartime obliga- ,ions, and it evidently has been the | belief Of President Coolidge that she would not be eager to do so if un- restricted borrowing in Wall street remained open 10 her. Germany, 1 against whom there have been no i particular restrictions since the 1 Dawes plan was signed, has bor- rowed more money in New York by far than the Dawes payments i amount to each year, so that it can i be said she has been making her Dawes payments from borrowed , money. the remainder going into capital expenditures,
 With huge sums of money owing the government from Europe, and also owing to American private | bankers, it remains d question as to which will obtain priority in pay ment. Any European naton unable to
 pay both the cXactions of the Amer ican government and the money due American bankers would face the alternative of disappointing somc-
 one, and it probably would be the
 American government.
 In the case Of Germany the sit
 nation is particularly striking. In
 article 24S of the Treaty of Yer
 sailles it is written that separations
 shall be a first charge on the assets and revenues of the German govern ment. But the American government
 did not sign the Versailles treaty If there should be a breakdown ot
 German payments in the future, ant the treaty signatories should at tempt to put through the demands
 Of article PAS. American interest
 would be gravely menaced. In al
 probability the American govern , ment would strongly oppose carry ; ing into effect of this article of th'
 Versailles treaty, with the result tha
 we would have an argument on ou
 hands with the former allied nations 2 Something like this is what Pres ident Coolidge must have in minc } when he insists supervision of forcier loans conforms with American for
 eign policy.

LEVI\E'S RETURN

It may be hard 10 come to a logical opinion about Charles A, Levine, the transoceanc flicr and European travelor, who finally ar lived back in New ' ork (aSsuming. of course, that ones opinion about anything is always bound to b. logical)
 As he Is reputcd 10 possess con- siderable wealth. and evidently has the means to construct as many ' engine planes as his wishes may die tate, it is possible that. aviation hay pc furthclcd considerably through his Identification with il. This provided, Of course. that he does not drop into the ocean or come to some other Calamit ous .aeronautical end before he has time 10 carry out his plans.

 sounds at least interesting. When regular airtrips across the pond are possible transatlantic airmail no doubt will be one of the first things established.
 Lindbcrgh said some time ago regular Atlantic trips would be pos sible, Levine evidently hasn't heard about this.

Docs an ocean cable rest on the bottom entirely or is it sus- pended across chasmsH
 A, When laying ocean cables, sufficient slack is paid out to be sure that the cable will follow the , contour of the bottom so that it will lie upon the bed of the ocean al all points.

A TOWNS BEST BOOSTER

A writer in current magazine observes If
the newspaper is just little better than its town,
the latter is the gamer thereby"
Towns and their newspapers usually lag or
lead together adds an exchange. Progressive ourn-
alism is the unfailng tonic of the lethargic COM
munity but it is equally true that lifeless news
papers can seriously retard the development OF its
community.
There is no better community asset than
home newspaper equal to the needs OF the COM
munity. While a poor newspaper is better than
none to the individual reader, that does not hold
true for the town.
What can a good newspaper do for It's COM
munity? 1t can serve as the towns messenger to
the outside world 1t must take the leadership in
all community projects if they are to be success
full It is the infable line of communication be-
tween local government and citizen. 1t is to the
newspaper that all organizations turn for asss-
lance in public welfare movements and without
the assistance they face failure.
The newspaper reaps the reward OF Its IN
itiative by sharing in the general Improvement OF
business and community affairs it has been instru-
mental in bringing about. The good newspaper
deems it pleasure to serve its community and its
readers and is fully aware that it is only through
giving full measure of service that it can pro-
gress and prosper.
