vcntion system. however, . convention
called specifically for the purpose Of
passing upon proposal, having once
acted, will be dissolved and may con-
ceivably not be reassembled or recreated
by subsequent act Of the Legislature.
That is one of the questions that enter
into this problem.
The whole matter would seem to turn
upon the element Of time. The amend
ment now before the States carries !.
limit of seven years in which ratifica-
tion may be effected. Heretofore States
have changed their votes, there having
been no time limit on any of the amend
nents proposed prior to the eighteenth.
1t would seem from one point of view
that If Legislatures can change from
mo" to YES" a negative vote by a
convention could likewise be superseded
by an affirmative vote If such action
should be had, with due regard for all
the established formalities Of conven-
tion calling, within the time limit
prescribed in the amendment itself.
In January, 1928, the Senate Com
nlittee on the Judiciary held a hearing
on proposed amendment to modify
the method of ratifying amendments to
the Constitution, including the stipula-
ton that until three-fourths Of the
States have ratified or more than one
fourth of the States have rejected or
defeated proposed amendment, any
State may change its vote" This ap-
piled to both the legislative and con-
vention methods of ratification. The
proposed amendment was never adopted
by Congress.

Linking of Reparations
And Debt Is an Insult

To the Editor Of The Star:
Before the American Congress con-
sents to making Americans pay back
any of the money that was lent to and
spent by Europe it should insist on q
complete reputation of that grosscst
insult ever offered our Nation-the link
they have made between England and
Europe's debts to US FL the rcpara-
tions imposed upon Germany. What
connection can there possibly be be-
tween money borrowed from a friendly
nation to help them win the war and
tribute imposed by them upon q con-
quered people? In effect, they say to
US, 1--WE took thousands Of square miles
Of territory from those We conquered
and hundreds of millions of dollars.
Now we cannot force them to pay any
thing more, the remainder of the in
demnity We imposed on them must be
paid by America"
There is no economists argument for
forgiving the debts and paying them
ourselves that can overcome the vicious
effect upon Americans Of this European
argument-if it can be called an argl-
!nent. Like many other Americans. I
believe that any statesman who partic-
ipates In that insult and fraud upon
America known as linking the war
debts and reparations together and
making America pay them should no
longer be considered an American.

A Solution of the

To the Editor Of The Star:
This plan has been given enthusiastic
approval by very prominent represent
ativeS of both China and Japan. The
plan submitted is as follows:
Japan is to give absolute freedom to
Korea (Chosen) on the following condi-
tions:3
China shall give absolute freedom to
Manchuria in return for the relinquish-
ment of all extraterritoriaI rights by
England, France and perhaps others.
England and France, in return, to be
given cut on their debts to the amount
Of the interest from the beginning. A
very prominent Englishman said in an
swer to question, Yes. There is one
thing which we would like. While we
feel it point of honor to pay every
dollar Of the original Indebtedness to
the United States, We feel that, having
given our all in the common cause, we
could with honor accept the cancella-
tion Of the interest on our debt"
On our part it would be cheaper than
would be another war and the amount
Of cancellation would be about the same
as The reductions already considered
and arranged for All which has been
paid should be crc:ited to the original
debt.

Ratification by Conventions.

Prescription of the convention method
of passing upon proposed amendments
to the Constitution, In the matter of
the repeal of the eighteenth amend
ment, has raised numerous questions as
to procedure There are no precedents,
this being the first time the convention
system has been prescribed by Congress
The States are now working out plans
for the calling of conventions, the elec-
ton of delegates, the ratio of represen-
tation and the formula of submission of
the issue to these representative bodies.
One question, however, that has been
raised cannot be answered in advance
of the actual contingency. Indeed, that
issue may not arise in this present case.
1t is: Can a State that has once acted
either affirmatively or negatively In
convention subsequently change its ac-
ton?
Representative Summers, chairman of
the House Committee on the Judiciary
reviewing this point, in statement
printed in The Star Tuesday, gave it as
his opinion that the probabilities are
that negative action in State by con-
vention would preclude that State from
subsequently ratifying the proposed
amendment" He based this upon the
fact that while the Constitution pro-
vides that ratification of the Constitu-
ton itself would be effected by the
actions of conventions of nine States,
ratification of amendments to the Con-
stitution might be effected by conven-
tions ''in" three-fourths of the States
The difference between "of" and "n,
he holds, justifies this conclusion.
In monograph on proposed amend.
ments to the Constitution" by M. A
Musmanno, a member of the bar o
Pennsylvania and member of th'
Pennsylvania Legislature, printed as &
public document in 1929, the case of {
reversal of States action on proposed
amendments is thus stated:
1t is generally accepted that Stat,
which has said mo" may change anC
say yes" but that State having onct
said yes may not change to mo-
