And the dear ELSIE ROBINSON
blessing you sent me in return?
Well, it has all come true! I
have a lovely home now, a dear,
dear husband and two adorable
babies. To make them happy,
to see them healthy and strong,
is the joy of my heart.
Now I'm coming to you again,
to help me with my new ambi-
tions. Elsie, I want to be more
than a mother and a wife, I
want to be a writer. But I'm
so bewildered. My thoughts are
so jumbled. Won't you tell me
how to start, and set me on my
way to literary success?

Would you make her happy by

Likely to Ask
Debt Commission

1t appears certain that
President Hoover will rec
ommend to Congress the Gre
alton Of a debt commission;
and just as certain that Con-
gress will refuse. The
leaders are convinced that
the debtor nations can pay
have the capacity to pay. 1t
is significant that this view
was expressed both by the
Democrats and Republicans
who participated in Mr..
Hoover's conference with
members of House and Sem
ate. The congressional stand
is made and here it is:
There shall be no exten-
sion Of the moratorium.
There shall be no cancella-
tion of the debts.
There shall be no further
reduction Of the debts at
the expense of the Ameri-
can people.
There shall be no revival
Of the debt commission.
Since this is the fixed de-
termination of Congress at
this time, and it is agreed
that nothing can be done
without congressional sane
tlon, it would seem that, for
the moment at least, the debt
question is disposed of.
If a plan can be worked
out in the line of exchange
that will tighten the burden

thing may be accomplished

AND A CONCETT THAT LONGS
TO SHOW OFF.
Why do only one out Of a
million Of these yearning young
souls ever achieve anything
worthwhile? That's why. Be
cause the motive that animates
them isn't worthwhile. 1t isn't
talent that urges them on; it's
merely an egotistical itch. And
an itch never got anyone any
where in the arts.
A Dull Trade ...
A real writing career isn't
exciting, or glamorous, or fasci'
mating or satisfying. It's hard.
It's dull. It's heart-breaking,
It imposes the most cruel disci.
pline upon the one who under
takes it. It pays worse than
any other job on earth, time
and work considered.
Then why do writer's write?
BECAUSE, IF THEY'RE REAL,
WRITERS, THEY CAN'T DO
ANYTHING ELSE. They're born
with the writing bug in their
brain, and, no matter what task.
or adventure may be on hand,
deep in themselves they are
writing. Every experience that
comes to them, however trivial
or tragic, is turned into words.
They are word machines, and
words must go on, though their
own hearts are ground to bits in
the process-as they inevitably
are. For the real writer can
never know the satisfaction of
personal happiness or personal
pride. He cannot know happi-
ness, because he is a receiving
station for life, and he re-
ceiveS its misery as well as its
joy. He cannot know pride,
because he must express life;
and no man can express life.
The real writer knows that
he is a failure, no matter what
his success, and listens with
a shamed and humble spirit
to any praise which comes his
way.
Haunting Thoughts
Moreover, he'll always be
haunted by the bitter realiza.
tion that nothing that he can
ever write will greatly enrich
the world and that one good
ditch digger is probably worth
a thousand scribblerS. But
even while he scorns himself
and his parasite job, he'll go
on writing, powerless to help
himself.
That is the lot of the real
writer. No one can choose
that lot. It is chosen for one.
before the brain ever awakens.
No one can make a writer,
or prevent a writer from
writing.
But suppose you have talent,
as you are secretly ana indig-
nantly sure you have?
Then neither you nor I need
worry about what you're going
to do. For you'll write, and
wild horses couldn't stop you'll

Of course, no modern woman

Right of Debtor
To Make Appeal

On one point, the incom-
ing and the outgoing Presi-
dents are in agreement.
They agree that any debtor,
public or private, has a
right to appeal to a credi-
tor for easier terms. But
they disagree as to method.
Mr.. Hoover would reestab-
lish the debt commission for
the purpose; Mr.. Roosevelt,
insisting that we should
deal separately with the
debtor nations, can see no
reason why conversations
cannot be carried on through
the usual diplomatic chan
nels.
They agree naturally that
nothing can be done about
the debts except through
congressional action. This
is the American way. The
power of initiating tax bills
was lodged by the Constitu-
tion with the House rather
than the Senate, on the
theory that the power should
be with those most speedily
amenable to the people who
pay the taxes. To permit
the Executive to increase
taxes, directly or indirectly.
would be a negation of our
system.
The Washington times., 1932-11-28
Cites American
Taxpayers Burden

The President reinforces
this viewpoint with quota
tions from our Government
from the end of the war on.
It is the American view.
And in discussing capacity
to pay, President Hoover
says something we believe
has not publicly been said
before by any spokesman of
the Administration, when he
points out our own rather
desperate condition, and
adds:
1.-THE effect upon the
American people as tax
payers of any modification
with respect to the debts
due this country must not
be disregarded. Other ma
tions have their budgetary
problems. So have we.
Other people are heavily
burdened with taxes. So
are we.
He might have added that
the budgetary problems of
most of the debtor nations
are not so serious as ours,
and that the taxes in few of
them are so burdensome to-
day.
All Of which enters into
The Washington times., 1932-11-28

our capacity" to pay all
or part of the debts that
none of the other nations
may be burdened with the
necessity of paying any.
And to a lesser degree, of
course, reductions mean the
same thing.
Again the President prop
erly interprets the view
point of the American peo-
pie when he says that the
question of disarmament
enters also into their inn
patience with the proposal
to transfer the debts. But
disarmament" is a strong
word and does not mean
what it says. Actual dis
armament is not proposed.
Only a reduction in arma-
ment is urged. And until
some advocate of the trans
fer of the debts explains
why nations giving more
than so per cent Of their
budgets to war purposes
cannot reduce this suffi-
GENTLY to get the 2 per
cent necessary for the pay
ment of the debts without
endangering the country,
few will be impressed by
the necessity.

Case Stated
With Fairness

But no one has stated the
case with more force or fair
ness than does Mr.. Hoover
when he says:
"In the matter of repara-
tions and other intergov-
ernmental debts arising
from the war, our position
is entirely different from
that of governments that
are both creditors and
debtors. Since we owe no
obligations Of a4y kind to
others, no concession made
in respect Of a payment
owed to us could either in
whole or in part be set off
or balanced against claims
owed by us to any other
creditor of our own coun-
try. On the contrary every
such concession would re-
suit in the inevitable trans
fer of a tax burden from
the taxpayers of some other
country to the taxpayers of
our own, without the posi-
bility of any compensating
set-off.
At last we have 1.-THE
use of the word transfer, "
on which we have insisted
in these columns for more
than a year, instead of the
use of the misleading word
cancellation. We cannot
"cancel" our obligations
created to get th9 money to
make the loans; we must
pay all if others owing the
debts pay none; and, to
the extent that we further
reduce, we transfer burdens
from others to ourselves.

THE famous conference
Il between the outgoing
and incoming Presidents has
passed to history, and moth
ing very tangible has been
acco m plished. Whatever
may have been Mr.. Roose-
velt's contributions to the
discussion, he emerged with
out commitments of any
sort-which is proper. On
the heels of the conference,
President Hoover issues a
statement, and, having read
it, Mr.. Roosevelt makes a
statement of his own. In
these two statements one
may easily read the differ
ence between the two men.
The statement of Presi-
dent Hoover has much to
commend it, albeit there 1
much in it that doe1 not
run in harmony with some
of his actions in the past.
His assertion that there is
no necessary relation be-
tween reparations and the
debts is sound; but that po-
sition, which we had as
sumed through three ad-
ministrations, was COM
promised by the moratorium,
in theory, if not in fact.
Everywhere among the
debtor nations it was hailed
as a recognition of a neces-
sary relationship.
