They are not good!
She has toppled from her world
position as the eXemplar of good
faith, of payment according to the
letter Of her bond, and is now con-

the defaulters of Europe.
1t is England--how tragic to rec

has hoisted the standard of repudi-

rally under its folds, and by stand

each other in confronting a shame
which is too much to face alone.
Let us see what the British have
to say in their new role.

armies were being steadily forced
back by the central powers; when
! her merchant marine was being
sunk by submarines at the rate OF
100000 tons per month, and not
| a week passed but forty ocean-go-
| ing steam vessels were lost; when
India was seething with revolt and
| Britain was unable, without Amer
lean help, to maintain her currency
system; when she could no longer
buy the requisite food to support
her civil population, nor the muni-
tions to supply her armies: when
the shadow of forced surrender
hung over the empire-she turned
to the United States for succor in
the hour of her extremity.
America responded Our people
frightened their belts. They reached
down into their savings. They pour
ed their money into British Golfers.
They said: Here, take this. 1t will
help you. 1t will stay the disaster
which threatens you. Spend 1t for
your needs. We are coming with
men and ships and money. We will
follow up our loans with our man
hood. Our soldiers will come to the
rescue of your soldiers You Will
not fail. You must not falter. In
the name of civilization buck up!
Yes. it is true-as the British
note says-our loans to England
were mot normal credit operations
for development purposes
The British note speaks of the
disastrous effect which any further

When America gave heed to Eng
lands appeals and rushed to her
aid, we certainly did not stop to
consider the economic conse-
ouences" of our generosity-the
disastrous effects" of transfer
ring" the money England begged
for. We "transferred'' it.
We did not pause to contemplate
"the economic impossibility of such
transfers" which England pleads in
her own behalf. 1t was "economi-
cally' possible enough to make
} these transfers to England. the
. difficulty seems to be in making
them from England.
Her note says she cannot "eros'
the exchange''-a technical expires
sion for the transfer of payment
but she saw no difficulty in cross
ing the exchange" when we wer'
doing the crossing and she was get
ting the money.
This matter seems to resembl
the air crossing of the Atlantic. l

This is an allusion to the refund

port yesterday BY the grand jury
criticising L. z. York. Indiana Anti

The report disclosed that the

made by him that certain public
officials are receiving profits from
the liquor business.
After reading the report. Judge
Baker declared he had no previous
knowledge that the jury had sum-
moned Mr.. York.
The grand jury charged that Mr.
York admitted he had no proof Of
his statements which. he is quoted
as saying. we're based on hearsay.
IN a sharp retort. Nh York de-
,sared there Is something wrong
with enforcement Of the liquor laws

part of every speech this campaign
to state political issues. it was de-
cided yesterday at the speakers
school conducted by the Republican

Advice to keep the campaign
speeches within forty-five minutes
and devote at least a third of them
to state issues, was given the ora
tors.
Mr. Schortemeier outlined state
issues to be dwelt on as the McNutt

in the verdict that this role is hui
manly played and not overacted at
any time, although the playwright
makes poor Pop and his men suf-
fer and suffer.
There are five different and inn
portant baseball games played in
this movie. If the men in an audi
'ence ever have the right to claim
that the movie they'S watching is
a herman picture, this one is it.
1t will spoil your fun to tell you
the story, but L will let you in on
a secret-the villains employ gun
men to get as many of the leaders
of the team which had a chance to
win the pennant. OF course it is
theater, but it is darned good the
alter.
AS to the casino one actually
OverShadows the other. The per-
Torrance I will remember is that of
Ted Healy as OToole, an umpire.
His vision is bad and he uses an
eyewash to clear the diamond may
be the pupil of his eye. It is over
drawn comedy, but still good enter
tainment.
Madge Evans is colorleSs at times,
but she has her romantic innings
with Robert Young, who seems to
be better on the diamond tlan with
his arms around Madge. Eddie Ash
probably will disagree. In fact
know he will.
There are lot of audience" shots
in the games and the villains do the
most theatrical things.
This is a picture that is diff
ferent. 1t is strong enough to stand
on its own legs because of being diff
ferent only. CFor the entire family.
1t opens tomorrow at Loew's Pal
