THE Administration is reported more hos
pitable to suggestions that it call other
nations around a conference table to talk busi-
ness. This is heartening evidence Of trend
toward more realistic economic and political
thinking in Washington.
For months, governments in Washington,
London and Paris have INDUCED in fruitless
hints to each other to take the lead. Some one
has to take the initiative. And after all, what
other nation is in as good position to do so?
Being the outstanding creditor nation, pos
SCISSOR of the worlds greatest gold hoard and
burdened with surpluses of goods for which it
can find no foreign markets, the United States
has much to gain from an international under
standing and nothing to lose by an attempt to
obtain it. Moreover. there is a strong moral
oompusion for the United States to take the
lead since it was largely to blame for breaking
up the London economic conference
Current speculative raids on the currencies
Of the few remaining gold standard countries
indicate how close the world is 20 monetary
anarchy. II an international race in cheaper
ing currencies gets out of hand, the conse-
quences can not be limited. Such a monetary
war would raise higher the trade barriers that
already have reduced world commerce to a
tricke.
If the United States is to regain its pre-
depression economic status. that trickle must
be enlarged into a river of trade that will drain
off our SURPRISES and re-employ our idle. The
alternative is to tighten our belts, accept lower
living standards and lower scale OF produc-
ton based on our contracted domestic markets.
Doubtless the Administration will find that
trade and monetary barriers connect with re-
lated problems Of war debts and ornaments
and that all should be included in one con-
ference as proposed by the Tydings resolution.

A government, like an individual, must ulti-

Because of increased costs, caused by inflated
prices, new issue has followed new issue, end

cases, like our own in the period of the Civil
War, the printing of treasury notes to cover

BLOW AT CROOKED POLITICS

CITY planning experts, meeting in Cincin-
~ natl for a discussion of problems of
urban life, are told by Frederic A. Delano of
The National Resources Board that city plan
ming is striking a mortal blow at the political
corruption which makes most city govern
ments so inefficient and expensive.
Planning. says Mr.. Delano. tends to break
UP the heavily concentrated blocs of popula-
ton which are the chief reliance of the politi-
cal boss. BY breaking them up it robs the
boss of his chief source of strength-and, in
consequence, makes it easier for the city to
get government responsive to the will of all
the people instead of a small political clique.
These are hopeful words. and if city plan
ming can work such wonders We might profit
ably get more and more of it everywhere.
Unfortunately, however. the problem is trifie
more complex than that.
In the long run the people Of any city get
just about the kind OF government they de-
serve. So long as they let indifference and
self-intereSt govern their attitude toward local
politics. they are pretty likely to get poor city
government in return.

A PROPER REBUKE

A PANDORAS box full of social dangers
may have been loosed by the Supreme
Courts NRA decision. but its ruling on the
Presidents Humphrey custer order was whole
some.
In its decision. read by Justice Sutherland
the court ruled President Roosevelt in error
when he sought dismissal of the late William
E. Humphrey from the Federal Trade Com
mission in 1888. That act was a surprising
abrogation Of power by President who usually
respects the line dividing legislative and execu-
tive functions.
Mr.. Humphrey was serving his second term
under a law that created the Federal Trade
Commission. Under this statute commissioners
are removable only for 'ineffciency. neglect OF
duty or malfeasance in Office" President
Roosevelt asked for and insisted upon Mr..
Humphreys resignation on the ground that
their minds could not go along together either
on the policies or the administration" of the
commission
This, doubtless, was true. Mr.. Humphrey
was an old school Republican. a high protec-
tionist and man wholly out of step with New
Deal policies. But he had committed no act
to make him legally unfit for his Office on
bipartisan commission.
The freedom from presidential influence of
such independent ana quasi-judicial boards
rs the Federal Trade and Interstate Com
nierce commissions should not be transgressed
for any cause.

along comes a chance to line up
Russia for future military activ-

about lending the Russians, who

Certainly if the French can af-

they can afford to scrape together
a little on the account they owe

about poverty and inability to pay
sounds like the strongest and

The Franco RusSian compact

tical interest to the United States.
There is one alleged Franco
Red understanding, according to
press reports, which ought to pro-
woke some comments in the

under the agreement France
agrees to lend to Russia the sum
of $500, 100000 francs, most of the
outlay to be used by the Red gov

way system so this would be of

When France, or any other

WEDNESDAY. MAY 70. 1895.
THE FRAzIER-LEMKE DECISION

VITHEN Congress passed and the President
w approved the Frazier-Lerlke farm mort
gage moratorium law. they were attempting to
deal with realities Of the hour. Foreclosures
we're driving farm families out Of their homes
and leaving creditors in possession OF farms Of
shrunken value.
When the Supreme Court on Monday ruled
that law invalid. it was not required TO consider
those realities. Instead under conditions quite
different IL weighed the language Of the legis-
lation against language written into Consti-
tuition AS years ago. We doubt that the lawyers
who sit on the high bench would have been as
legalistic in their thinking had their response
bity been that Of Congress and the President
IN The hour Of stress.
Farm debtors and creditors are today in
more fortunate circumstances, thanks to the
New Deal Higher prices for farm products
have improved the farmers ability to meet his
obligations and has raised the value OF his
farm. Mortgage relief extended through the
Farm Credit Administration has helped to 81
lence the sheriffs hammer. and make more Sc
cure the creditors investment.
Yet, without any desire to question the
courts legalistic reasoning. We doubt the long
range wisdom Of its decision. State govern
ments. the Supreme Court has repeatedly held
are without power to impair contracts except in
limited emergencies. And the Frazier-Lemke
decision appears in effect to close the door to
any future effort to scale down debts by Fed
eral action.
What then may happen in the next debt
crisis-when debtors can not pay and creditors
can not collect? Lacking a rational Federal
method for scaling down debts, the same end
viii have to be accomplished by other means.
The number of dollars owed, the court says,
can not be reduced. But the value of those
dollars can be reduced and relief provided to
the debtor through the perfectly "constitu-
tional"-though irrational and uncomfortable
process of printing press initiation.
We hope Congress will never be forced to
choose that alternative.
