set II the times were prosperous, the
Far East alone would be considered
situation to engage the coolest judg-
ment and most skillful talent of a new
administration
The recognition Of Russia, which Is
Intimately connected with the Far
Eastern situation as well as with the
quest for new trade outlets, has its own
complications. The Philippine QueS-
ton, which has its international as
well as its domestic aspects, probably
will present many difficult situations
before it is finally solved. Ertrance
into the World Court, to which the
Democratic party is pledged with the
existing reservations, and the st. Law
renee waterway treaty are contentious
matters with which Mr. Roosevelt Will
have to deal in the early months OF his
administration.
In two phases Of American foreign
policy, in additions to the Far East,
Mr.. Roosevelt has already made known
his intention Of pursuing the path
marked out by the Hoover administra-
tion. He has indorsed Mr.. Hoover's
approach to disarmament through ef-
forts to restrict offensive weapons, and
Mr.. Hoover's proposal that the PreSi-
dent be endowed with the authority to
join with other nations in preventing
the shipment of arms.
To thread his way through the in
terlocking arrays of problems which
demand immediate attention, Mr..
Roosevelt must move with hreath-taking
sureness and speed. Even with large
majorities in both Houses of Congress
he can succeed only by the imposition
OF iron discipline and the ruthless cut
ting Of legislative red tape. The criti-
cal economic condition of the world die
tates that the New Deal must stand or
fall on its achievements during the next

losses in future years make it, by and
large, "bankable" proposition.
He has hinted that, if successfully
begun, it will be followed by the similar
development of other watersheds. Per-
haps the entire project is only day
dream, but more grandiose ideas be-
came actualities under the stress of
war One of the last phases of the
proposed project-the return of un-
employment workers with farm expert
ence to the land-is a movement which
Mr.. Roosevelt has urged for several
years. Whether good or bad, it is his
solution for the future of the large
residue of workers which chronological
improvements make superfuous even
at the peak of the boom.
Bad Judgment Charged.
The votes in the November election
had hardly been counted before Mr..
Roosevelt was compelled to take a
stand on pressing foreign problems. BY
opening the door to immediate review
of the war debts he filled many of his
followers with trepidation. Years of
agitation have charged the war debt
problem with political dynamite and
by normal standards Mr.. Roosevelt
could be accused of bad judgment for
risking a conflict with Congress over
the question at the very outset Of his
administration before driving through
his domestic programs
But the war debt problem would not
wait, and Mr.. Roosevelt must find a
formula acceptable to the dominant
opinion in this country. which holds
that the war debts are just obligations
and should be paid, and the dominant
opinion abroad, which holds both that
they are not ordinary obligations and
that they cannot be paid.
The war debts are only one of the
phases of the fundamental problem Of
Stabilizing the world price level and
yeopening the avenues Of world trade.

~New Deal' Promised by Roosevelt
Is Facing Test in First 9 Months

The flight from the gold standard
abroad threatens to leave this country
marooned on price level which can
not be maintained except by complete
withdrawal into self contained ma
tional economy. The Democratic party
is committed to the alternative policy
of reviving and expanding interna-
ticnal commerce. Mr.. Roosevelt is fac
ing the unpleasant fact that all that
he does at home can be only temporary
in its benefits unless the principal cur
rencies are stabilized to afford base
from which the world price Of COM
modities can rise. The return Of the
principal nations to the gold standard
and a truce in tariff warfare as be-
ginning toward the reopening Of trade
channels through reciprocal agree
ments are necessarily the chief objec-
tives which this country must seek at
once. In his conversations with the
British and French ambassadors prior
to his Inauguration, MH Roosevelt re-
vealed his determination to begin at
once the attack upon these interna-
tional economic obstacles which bar the
way to world recovery.
Other Problems Wait,
An imposing multitude Of other for
eign problems, economic and political,
are waiting on Mr. Roosevelt's door,
step. The grave situation in the Far
East led Mr.. Roosevelt in January to
announce that he supported the Hoo
ver-Stimson policy of non-recognition Of
territorial changes wrought in violation
of existing treaties. The diplomatic
position of the United States was sub
sequently strengthened by the report Of
the Committee of Nineteen of the
League of Nations and a change in the
British and French positions. The jap
anese invasion of Jehol and the deci-
sion of the Japanese Cabinet to with
draw from the League presented new
crisis. The Far East is without doubt
one Of the most ticklish problems before
the new administration at its very out

Lost Dog Recognizes
Master Over Phone

PARIS.-A dog was found the other
day in a village near Paris. The finder
thought he recognized the animal as
belonging to friend In . nearby town.
Ringing the supposed owner on the
telephone he asked him to call the dog,
at the same time placing the receiver
near the dogs ear.
Wags and yelps Of delight proved
that the identification was correct, and
the finder offered to deliver the dog
to its home. But neither Establishments
nor threats could induce Fidp to leave
the telephone booth until his master
came to fetch him in person.
