debtor powers is still to be deter
mined and several factors must
first be weighed.
Realists here no longer expect
the war debts to be paid in full,
if at all Some, however, are con-
WINGED that something on the dol
lar might be collected if the
United States would take the
initiative and advance a workable
scheme.
UNLESS something Of the kind
~ is done, it is widely admitted
here, Great Britain, France, Italy
and the rest will let the semi
annual installment dates-June IS
and Dec. 15-come and go without
the offer of a sou until eventually
a new generation arrives and the
whole thing is forgotten.
This group feels that before that
time arrives the United States
should face the unpleasant fact,
revise the debt settlements as far
as it will, then confront the debtor
countries with the offer.
Great Britain, it is significantly
pointed out, now heads the long
list of defaulters. Britain is ira
ditionally jealous of her reputa-
ton for paying on the dot. 1t is
her hard-boileo stand which
makes officials here so pessimistic
about the future.
The Great Britain installment
due amounts to S117,6O0000. AS
Britain is behind 1851 100000
on past installments, she should
really pay S379, 100000. Instead,
she has informed the State De-
partment not only that she will

Inside word is that the pro-

asked to step aside, and the mat

Il HIS year the Christmas Seal which indicates a
u contribution to the battle against tuberculosis
bears picture OF little red cottage built so years
ago at Saranac Lake, ~ Y
In 1884 Edward Livingston Trudeau found that
ne mad tuberculosis He had apparently developed
the disease while nursing his brother
At that time tuberculosis was considered a fatal
disorder, so DR.. Trudeau left his home and went to
the Adirondack Mountains in New York State to
spend his last days on his favorite hunting ground
In a speech, delivered Just before his death Dr
Trudeau said over the doors of the hospitals for
consumptives Is years ago might well have been
written these words: All hope abandon We that
enter here While today in the light Of new knowl-
edge, we may justly place at the entrance of the
modern sanatorium the hopeful instruction:
Cure sometimes relief often, comfort always"
IT
TODAY there are some $50 sanatoriums for the
Il tuberculous in the United States In these
sanatoriums tuberculosis is treated for the most
part with the aid of rest fresh air and good food
But modern scientific treatment includes also a
careful use of drugs and of biological preparations,
artificial pneumcthorax, to provide rest for the lung
artificial physical therapy in the way of ultraviolet
rays, suitable rest and exercise, and similar meas
ures.
So important did the little cottage first built
by Dr. Trudeau become in the history of tuberculosis
that it has been given the affectionate name Of
Little Red"
XXTHEN you buy Christmas Seal this year you

green's outlined in snow. 1t serves, therefore.
memorial TO great worker IN tuberculosis and at
the same time helps to bring increasing comfort and
perhaps increasing years Of life 10 those who can
not otherwise be provided with proper care.
1t has been reported that there are almost 100000
children with tuberculosis in the United States and
possibly $4,000 additional suspected cases. Were
these to be cases Of infantile paralysis Of
scarlet fever, diphtheria measles. they would be
considered a national menace.
