ONCE OVERS
Friends and Enemies

Friends and Enemies
You congratulate yourself
that you have few enemies.
Your plan had been to avoid
displeasing people,
Often you have failed to sup
port a principle in which you
believed because you desired
to remain in the good graces
of certain people.
Working with the idea of
making yourself popular and
retaining a position of popular
ity is a poor life object, isn't
it?
Selling your independence of
thought and action because
you want people to think well
of you is too big a price to
pay for anything you gain
by it.
Sometimes you regret you
have so few close friends
friends who are staunch enough
for you to rely upon under
any condition.
1t is a sad condition you
have brought upon yourself.
If you have not given evil
dence of backbone enough to
stand by your principles in
time of stress, can you expect
anyone to be fearless in your
defense when such action is
demanded by circumstances?
OF course not.
Then don't expect what you
do not give in loyalty.
Stand for something right
and true and then your friends
may stand by you.

Years ago if someone did go
to South Africa it was only on
business, or to visit the gold or
diamond mines, or to start on
a sarfari or big game hunt,
pushing up from the south to
Rhodesia or Kenya colony. But
nowadays one is constantly
meeting people who have made
not only one but several visits
to South Africa and all of
them are enthusiastic about the
trip. It is a grand place there
can be no doubt of that, and
Americans seem particularly to
enjoy all that it has to offer.
The climate. the outdoor diver

LISTEN, WORLD!
BY Elsie Robinson

He was an migrate and a cheat.
And now you deSpise him. You
try to make him feel like 80
cents. And you're bitterly sorry
for yourself.
Seeking Sympathy
You go around telling people
what a terrible person he
turned out to be, and how badly
he used you.
You say We'll, you can't eX-
pect to make silk purse out OF
a soW's ear; and it doesn't do
to throw pearls before swine"
That's how you feel about
some one who fails to live up
to your ideals.
But how do you get that way?
Where do you get the big idea
that your ideals are only true
and beautiful pattern of life?
You act as if you had cor
nered the Ten Commandments
but why? Don't you know
that our ideals are all-of-a-piece
with the rest of us; that they
correspond with our general de-
velopment?
There is no such thing as a
fixed ideal for human be-
havior; no Interchangeable stand
ard of right and wrong. Each
man makes his own ideals &C
cording to his own capacity,
and changes them with his
spiritual development.
You realize that your "a.
pacity is limited in other re-
spects. You readily admit that
you don't know the ultimate
truth about engineering, agri.
culture. science or art. And
yet. with never a doubt, you set
yourself up as an authority on
Righteousness, and speak of
your ideals" as though you had
a copyright from God.
Mans Great Ideal
Piffle! A mans ideal is only
his own personal notion of good
ness, which may, or may not be.
so hot.
So perhaps your ideals were
a great gift to your friend, and
again. perhaps they weren't.
But, even if they were noble
and beautiful, who gave you the
right to hand them on him?
Who appointed you to show
other people how to live?
He didn't live up to your
ideals, and, as a matter of fact,
he wouldn't be worth a boot If
he had lived up to them. Each
man must make and live up to
his own ideals; and his right to
make mistake is as sacred as
his right to succeed. For we
learn as much-perhapS more
through failure as we do
through success.
So no one has failed" you
or cheated" you or been I'm.

And the Response
From the Debtors?

We are now indebted to
Borah for some facts and
figures that are conspicu-
ously absent from the propa@
ganda articles, books and
speeches of the advocates
of the transfer of the Euro
pean debts to American tax
payers.
Long ago, the Administra-
ton entered upon a debt
settlement which was gen
erous on our part beyond
anything ever known before.
We took over more than so
per cent Of the debts of ma
tions that borrowed money
from us and used it for their
own advantage.
Thus we cancelled more
than SO per cent Of the
Belgian debt; more than so
per cent of the French debt
more than IS per cent of
the Italian debt; more than
So per cent of the Jugosla-
Wan debt; and to a less de-
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1932-04-23
Borah Furnishes Some
Startling Figures.

We can subscribe to prac-
tically everything in former
Governor Smith speech in
Washington except the 90
year moratorium and the
crediting during those years
to each nation on its debt
of a certain proportion of
its purchases from us. This
is cancellation. 1t would not
result in any increase in the
purchases; for at the present
figure in trade it would
mean the wiping out of the
debt. Borah gives us the
figures based on the Stats
ties of the last few years.
And, since we are given
the impression by the propa-
gandists that the making of
the annual payments due us
is wrecking the economic
structure of Eul ope, Borah
furnishes some startling
figures that will make the
groundlings rub their eyes
again.
For the amount due us
takes but 2.45 per cent of
the Belgian budget.
And 3.75 per cent of the
British budget.
And 1.41 per cent of the
Italian budget.
And 2.65 per cent of the
French budget.
1t does seem strange to
the grounding that such a
meager part of the cost of
government in these coun-
tries is "wrecking the eco
nomic structure of Europe. -
And all the stranger, since
none of the money we have
collected from the debtors
has been raised by the taxa
ton Of the people of their
countries. 1t has all come
from Germany.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1932-04-23
Vast Armies Are
Being Maintained

Since we are assured that
payments on the debts due
us, ranging from 3.75 per
cent to 1.41 per cent of the
budgets, is wrecking the
economic structure of Eu-
rope, Borah's figures on
the amounts spent last year
on war preparations are H.
Eliminating.
Thus England has for this
purpose $e7S,051,247 in her
budget.
And France $517,91O,816
in her budget.
And Italy $269,O57,884 in
her budget.
At the present time vast
armies, greater than at the
beginning of the World War,
are b in g maintained.
Thus
France supports armed
forces of 6,942,559.
Italy, $685., 597.
Poland, 1,977,O95.
Jugoslavia, 1,341,568, etc.
And the grounding won
ders if all this has as much
to do with "wrecking the
economic structure of Eu-
rope" as from 3.75 per cent
to 1.41 per cent of the
budgets of the debtor ma
tions, necessitated by the
payments on the debts.
Nothing is doing as much
to wreck the economic struc-
ture of the world today as
the artificial tariff barriers
against international trade;
and no one is so much
responsible for that as the
United States. Here is where
our selfishness'' comes in;
and it is not the selfishness
of the American people, but
of a highly organized and
subsidized meager minority
that had more influence with
the Administration when the
Grundy act was pending
than the great majority of
the people.
We built a Chinese wall
on the theory that we could
continue to sell while refus-
ing to buy; and enter the
markets of other nations
while refusing them admit
lance to ours; that we could
eat our cake and have it
too. We know better now.

The Groundlings Rub
Their Ewes in Amusement

Their Eyes in Amusement
They know that France is,
in comparison, highly pros
porous.
They find nothing alarm
ing in the conditions in
Italy.
They read that England
has balanced her budget,
and from the chancellor
these words:
I'VE have put our house
in order; we have balanced
our budget and ceased to
borrow. The British finan-
cial year ended March 81,
and the accounts show a
surplus of revenue over ex-
penditures of 365,O00 pounds
instead of the deficit of
100000 threatened last
September.
And they note the deficit
here of more than $4,000
100000; and hear from our
statesmen the question,
Where can we find some
thing more to taxi"
Then they read again the
propaganda that we must
pay not only the debt of
England, France and Italy,
but of eight other nations
that it is very selfish and
vicious of us not to do it;
and the groudlings rub their
eyes in amazement.

TT is fortunate that on
l. the day Neville Cham
berlain, the British Chan
cellor Of the Exchequer, was
submitting his budget, pro-
viding for the payment of
not a penny on the Ameri-
can debt, Senator Borah,
speaking for the great ma
jority in Congress and the
greater part of the Ameri-
can people outside, should
make it clear that if the
chancellor is counting on
cancellation, or rather the
transfer, of the debts, and
another moratorium, he is
leaning on a reed.
After Congress pointedly
took its position, it is I'M
fortunate that it is necessary
to continue the discussion.
But high-powered propa-
ganda from Europe and
certain financial interests
here are in full progress.
Day by day, the American
advocates of the transfer of
the debts of other nations
to the American taxpayers
are pounding away; pages
are given to the publication
of their speeches and state
ments. The purport of it
all is that we cannot re-
cover as long as Europe is
"prostrate"; and Europe
cannot recover until the
taxpayers of America agree
to pay the debts of Europe.
The mere groundlings
here rub their eyes in utter
confusion. They note the
conditions here-seven to
10 million bread-winners
out of work; business pros
trate; the hugest deficit of
any nation; the laying on of
taxes to save the nations
credit that are bending the
backs of our people to the
breaking point. How can
we play the good Samaritan?
they ask.
