DETROTT'S WORK WITH THE UNI
PRIVILEGED BOY

In the current issue of Review of Reviews is a
very interesting article on what the City of Detroit
is doing not only to prevent juvenile delinquency,
but to build up the underprivieged boys of the
city. While many cities and towns doing much
through various organizations, still many of them
are directing attention particularly to the
deprivileged boy. Through the effort of the De-
trot Union League Club, and following the plan
adopted by the Union League Club of Chicago,
Boys Club of Detroit was established for the
derprivieged boy. 1t has been a success Detroit
some years ago. led all the cities of the Country in
Juvenile delinquency. 1t is cited in the story that
In 1925 there were 1908 boys arrested under the
age of 10 and $500 under II years
This boys club takes the material and works
it over into what the author of the story says is
ga first class brand of the article known citi-
zen" After three years of effort, it is shown 10
be working out WE'LL There are medical and dental
clinics, recreation and class in the club. Ev
cry sort of game which boys like is provided. The
story says: "Boys first come to the club with bad
teeth poor health dirty bodies and the street wise
mentality of the give brand But aft
e. a period of milling in this boy factory they go
out with improved health, good teeth clean bodies
kept clean by the habits formed, and with a
fairly complete extraction of the old notion that an
unfair attitude toward people and property will
get them anywhere worth going to-
Some of the results are summarized as follows
"There is a marked decrease in delinquency cases.
No boy, who has come regularly under the influ-
of the club since its inception, has been brot
before the juvenile court One of the largest in
dustral in the city has offered to take our
boys as fast they be prepared by habits of
honesty and concentration on tasks assigned"
Detroit and Chicago are both rendering valu-
able service in the examples of what to do to cut
down juvenile delinquency among the underprivi-
legged boys 1t costs in actual money to
handle the matter in this fashion than it would to
cope with the problem after boys have definitely
taken up lives of crime and the advantage of car
ing for them before they have a chance to become
involved in crime is that they can be made into
useful citizens of community. Preventing youth
from becoming tainted with evil is far easier than
it is to youth of the criminal virus after he
has once become inocuated with it.
More power to these organizations in Detroit and
Chicago, and elsewhere, which are working to help
the youth of the land whether under privileged or
not All these efforts pay large dividends in build
ing right-thinking citizenship.

The Farmer-Labor party of Minnesota is modelled
after the British Labor party; it is built on the
economic interests of the farmers and industrial
workers and is also supported by intelligent indi-
viduals of other groups who, recognizing the con-
ihct of interest between the wealth producers and
those who live off the labor of Others have align

German Workers IN Bankers
Net
By LELAND OLDS, Federated Press
Yet

Machinery for regulating the
flow of tribute from hundreds of
millions of workers throughout the
world will be integrated as a re-
suit of the PREPARATIONS settlement
worked out by leading information
al bankers. This fact becomes
clearer the longer one studies the
plan for world bank of interna-
tional settlements. The financial
stability aimed at is the assurance
that foreign investment will pro-
duce uninterrupted income for the
owning class.
At the start the bulk of the tri-
butte will be collected from defeat
ed Germany. This tribute will am
cunt to something like $500,000,-
600 a year on account of repara-
tions alone and about two-thirds
of this amount will go to the Unit
ed States. But inextricably con-
nected with reparations payments
will be the interest due on Ameri-
can capital privately invested in
Germany. For at least two gen.
erations German workers are sub
ject to American capitalists.
"The two countries most concern
ed in the reparations settlement"
says E. L. James in the New York
Times, "are Germany and the
United States. For the new plan
provides that over the next six de.
cades citizens of the republican
Reich, their children and theil

vanced to the allies to help defeat

THE SHERIDAN COUNTY ROBBERY
CASE

Now that the United States Circuit Court of
Appeals has upheld the decision of Judge Pray in
the U. S. District Court at Great Falls on every
point it looks like Sheridan county will finally get
the money from the National Surety Company
with which it was insured
The insurance company made hard fight to
keep from paying this money to the county, and
was aided by several citizens of Plentywood, who
did their utmost to make it appear that the rob
berry was an inside job and thus give the insurance
company some kind of an out. The National Sure
ty Company must feel very kindly toward these
town gossps, which have cost that company thous-
ands of dollars, because they paused to listen to
their lurid tales Of what might have happened.
Even the newspapers outside of the Producers
News in Sheridan county were interested in the
insurance company's side of the case that they
published kilograms from the attorneys of the
Surety Company that they were going to appeal
the case from the Great Falls court and that they
expected to win in the U. S. Circuit Court of APP
peals at San Francisco.
All of this happened before the election of com-
ty officials last fall, and comes roundabout
face since the election of officers last fall and
the busy politicians who were so ready to besmirch
the reputation of the officers elected by the farm
ers, are now quite willing that Sheridan county re-
ceive the 100000 that was stolen and the inter
est. Il will now come in handy as their officials
will have the handling of this money.
Such is politics in Sheridan county, and until this
band of nit-wits is thoroughly discredited by the
decent people of Sheridan county, there will always
be strife-and harmony will be thing to be
dreamed of and talked about, rather than realized

Capital GIut Presages World

seemed as though the change meant
merely a shift of the financial cen
ter of the world from London to
New York. Europe seemed too i'm
poverished by the war to become
again a source of surplus capital.
But the steady recovery of Europe
has altered that outlook, Simmons
says:
meanwhile the leading Euro
pean countries have, in varying de-
grees, recovered from the war,
and again become creditor nations.
Formerly the overflow of European
capital would find a ready outlet
in the vast debtor market of New
York. Today both Europe and
America are beginning to look
about the world for such other
debtor markets in which to place
their surplus capital. Meanwhile
domestic security prices of this
and other creditor nations have ris
en- and may rise still further undel
the constant pressure of fresh cap
ital seeking investment"
There are still vast fields calling
for the surplus capital of credito
nations but in answering the call
I the creditors are steadily trans
forming these regions into surplus
producing countries. Already it i

marked that foreign investment
was the modern method of con-
quest. American penetration is of
that type and American bankers
have shared in the creation of a
world bank which will go far to-
ward assuring to American capital
lists the enjoyment of the fruits of
this new form of conquest.
Beyond the handling of interna-
tional settlements the super-bank
will protect the Individual capitalist
nations against temporary strains
which might produce bankruptcy
much as the federal reserve system
protects individual banks in this
country. In other words it will en-
able the bankers of the world to
pool their resources and to swing
support to any sector of the cap
italist front which is threatened.
This potentiality is embodied in the
following cautious language:
"The use of the banks credit by
central banks within moderate linn

scarcely different in its exercise

A clearer picture of the critical
situation confronting the capitalist
system is to be found in the adj
dress of Pres. Simmons of the New
York Stock Exchange than in the
more pretentious report of Hoover's
committee on Recent Economic
Changes. His late analysis of the
situation before the New Hamp-
shire Bankers Assn. suggests that
the day is near at hand when sur
plus of capital will be worldwide
with no available debtor markets
to absorb it. Such a condition will
force social and political readjust-
ments of a far reaching order.
Simmons is engaged in a big
campaign to justify stock market
speculation which is now being at
tackled both in and out of congress.
He wants people to believe that it
is not gambling but a fundamental
feature of capitalist development.
But in making it a definite part of
capitalism he unconsciously shows
that what proved a simulant in the
youth of the system may prove q
poison in its old age.
When capitalism developed out
of the older feudal order, capital
was scarce. The possibility of &C.
celebrating industrialism depended
upon encouraging the accumulation
of capital and its use in providing
new tools and new sources Of pow
Ell. The possibility of huge specu
lative profits provided the neces
sary incentive.
This development occurred chief
7 ly in a few nations on the ives
/ coast of Europe. Gradually Holl
+ and, England, France and Ger
many accumulated a surplus o
capital beyond the needs of thei
: own immediate development. Blu
n this did not glut the market TO
capital because there were still vas
regions, including the Unite
States, which were hungry for CAP
ital. The European creditor ma
: tions supplied the rest of the worl
: with a growing stream of capita
for development. AS a result spec
ulation never reached the stage @
