social menace if it is backed
by a marriage license as if it

There has not been until
recently any feeling against
France because of the debt
controversy. The reason
there is no such sympathy
for the French demands for
further transfers of the debt
burden to- the American
people as there is for the
English is that France can
pay; that France is pros
porous; that compared with
the United States at this
time, France is opulent.
And there is another reason
France has already re-
ceived most generous terms
at the expense of our own
people. And another reason
France up to this minute
has not taxed her people a
penny to get the money to
make payments on the debts.
And there is still another
resemblance is spending
much too much in prepara-
tions for another war.
When England takes the
position that she can accept
no concessions on her debt
without more concessions to
France she does herself no

nouncing the payment on the
debt due today, seems all but
incredible. England has
asked a reconsideration of
her debt because Of abnormal
conditions affecting her, and
this appeal had received a
sympathetic hearing among
those opposed to the cancel
lation or transfer Of the
debts. It has been made
quite clear by us that Con-
gress alone has the power to
transfer all, or any part of
the debt to the American
taxpayer; that the refusal
by England to make her pay
ment on the fifteenth, ac-
cording to the contract,
; would greatly prejudice the
move for a reconsideration
of her settlement; that the
payment would facilitate it.
Under these circumstances
it must be amazing to the
average American to read in
the English note that the
payment offered is not to
be regarded as a resumption
Of the annual payments con-
templated in the existing
agreement, " and that Eng
land proposes that the pay
ment shall be considered as
ga capital payment Of which
account should be taken in
the final settlement"
The acceptance of the pay
ment with this proviso would
be an acceptance of the Eng
lish proviso, and would mean
a surrender to the debtor
nations of the determination
of our own future policy.
Under these circumstances
Secretary Stimson has acted
with celerity, dignity and de-
cision; for within a few
hours England knew that we
could not accept London's s
Interpretation of the mean
ing of the payment. He
merely served notice that
should have been unneces-
sary - that until an agree
ment is revised, it exists.
In Heavens
Name, Why?
Knowing, as England un-
questionably must know, the
state of feeling in this coun-
try; knowing that Congress
alone can transfer any por-
tion of the debt to American
taxpayers, the wonder
grows that there should have
been any astonishment in
London over the Stimson
note. 1t seems impossible
that the London papers
should have captioned the
American note with such
words as "bombshell" and
sensation. In heavens
name, whyG Where is Eng
land getting her impression
OF American sentiment? Is
it brushing Congress aside as
tllppantly and ignorantly as
some Of our own people in
High Hats?
Is it assuming that our
Government can utterly ig-
more public sentiment, based
upon ancient and honorable
rules of international con-
duct? Who is England con-
sulting in America on Amer
lean sentiment and Ameri-
can policies? The note from
Stimson exonerates him here.
1t is to be assumed that Mr..
Mellon in London did not
advise contrary to the policy
of his chief.
And yet we have it from
London that the Stimson
note twill take Britain en-
tirely unawares. " It seems
impossible! The very idea is
as confusing to common
sense as the experiences of
Alice in Wonderland.
However, Mr.. Stimson had
indicated a way out for the
English.

The Debt
Was Paid

We had such serious
trouble with France in the
days of Jefferson, because
of her intervention in the
interest of another nation,
that war seemed certain,
and jefferson consulted his
Cabinet on the wisdom Of
an English alliance. The Bat
tie of Trafalgar, which di-
verted Frances attention
from us, ended that pros
pect. But for the triumph
at Trafalgar there might
have been an alliance that
would have changed the
course of history.
In the days of jackson we
were on the verge Of war,
because of a French debt.
The language used against
us now was then heard in
the French Parliament, dip
lomatic relations were
broken, war was in the off
ing, when England offered
mediation. It was accented
by Jackson, bristling, with
the characteristic provision
that the settlement would
have to mean the payment
of the debt, and the debt
was paid.
We were not close to war
because we wished a war
but because French public
men threatened us with war;
and, of course, there will be
no war now.
The Washington times., 1932-12-15
And So It
Turns Out

Meanwhile the French
politicians are exhausting
their vocabuIaries of vi
tuperation> in denouncing
the United States.
Some years ago, riding in
a train with a prominent
political leader who had
been saturated by life with
cynicism, l heard him told
that some person in a GER
tain city was bitterly at
tacking him. The old cynic
seemed surprised. And then,
slowly, came his comment:
That's strange. I can
not think of anyone there
for. whom I ever did a
favor" D."
We are afraid that was
wisdom.
We have it from McAdoo
that when the loans were
under discussion, years ago,
it was agreed that the very
great favor rendered by the
loans would be hard for the
beneficiaries to forgive. And
so it turns out.
There is no question of
the unfriendly feeling of
France for the United States.
This is not so remarkable
to anyone familiar with his
tory. We have been fed an
appalling amount of chunk y
in this country about the
French partiality for us. 1t
is impossible to cite an in
stance.

CRUDE OIL WAR
. STILL FEARED

The failure of crude oil produc-
tion to show more than a slight
decrease in the week ended Octo-
Der /, still held a threat of a
crude price cut over the oil in
dustry.
South Penn Oil Company to-
day reduced the price of Corning
crude oil 20 cents barrel, to IS
cents. This is the second cut in
Pennsylvania in the past two
days.
According to the Oil and Gas
Journal. daily average production
of crude oil in the United States
in the week ended October l
totaled 2,16O,70O barrels, de-
crease of only 8,451 from the pre-
ceding week.
Leaders of the industry feel that
production must be reduced to
100000 barrels before the danger
of price slashes can be eliminated.
