that such spots as Porto Rico are

number Of cruise ships calling at
San Juan this summer. Which Is
all to the good for both the trav-
eler and for Porto Rico, where,
under the American flag, without
passports and. customs regulations,
there are all the appeal and exotic
lure Of the tropics.
Those who associate extreme
heat with the tropics will be aston.
iShed at the pleasant climate OF
Porto Rico. Famed by the cool
trade winds, 1t is perpetual spring.
And contrasts are everywhere
the relics Of centuries side by side
with modern buildings and fine
roads. The old cathedral, the gov.
ernor's palace, Casa Blanca, Fort
San CriStobal, all reminiscent Of
the conquistadoreS, contrast with
the magnificent new capitol, the
fine university office buildings and

'lovely houses. And these contrasts
and marks Of progress are found
all over the island as well as in
San Juan.
The university Is in Rio Piedras,
seven miles from the capital.
Other important institutions are
also located there. Ponce, a typi-
cal Spanish city, has also found
room for progress, and its suburb,
Los Meros, is as beautiful a resi-
Dental quarter as this traveller
has ever seen.

on making pilgrimages to historic

Europe Can Paw

THE favorite abi of the debtdefaulting nations of
l. Europe is:
"We'd like to pay, but we CAN'T"
It is aibi so old that it has whiskers on it.
False whiskers-as false as the alibi itself
Time and again it has been demonstrated that
Europe COULD pay if it WOULD.
Payment in commodities rather than gold has been
shown to be practicable.
Great Britain for example, grows rubber America
does no-and America is the largest user of rubber
in the world.
But every pound of rubber we buy from Britain we
pay for in cash credit.
No Englishman yet heard from has ever suggested
that part of the British debt to this country could
be cancelled by supplying us with this product gratis
The only rubber get for nothing is the rubber in
foreign PROMISES.
Latest in the series of authoritative studies of the
debt situation is that of the Alexander Hamilton In
sttute which demonstrates beyond peradventure the
ability Of our debtors to pay and the hoowness of
their claim that they are unable to do so.
It is a revealing document.
It proves the capacity of each defauting nation to
raise the necessary revenue AT HOMES the one
non-welching nation, Finland, has raised it,
And 1t completely punctures the ingenious plan Of
some Of our British friends to iqudate their debt by
floating bonds IN THIS COUNTRY and paying off
WITH AMERICAN MONEY.
Fears of war have brought new feelers from Europe
in regard to the debtstenuous suggestions that the
debtors are at last considering payment
The purpose of most of these polite overtures, how
ever, seems plain.
It is not PAYMENT which inspires them. but the
chance Of borrowing MORE.
The public credit of all but Finland is dead here
and will be as long as that johnson Act stands.
And that act will stand, let us hope until the debtors
give evidence of elementary honesty by paying up IN

Here are a few highlights:

American Fair Play

~ EVTSTON of the sugar bill now before the Com
II mittee on Agriculture of the House of Representa-
tives to eliminate the discriminatory restrictions which
would be imposed on the Territory of Hawaii would
not work any hardship other sugar producing areas
of the United States.
Such revision as is asked by the Americans Of Hawaii
would not detract by one pound from sugar which
would be produced on the continent and would not add
BY one pound to the sugar which would be produced
on the American island.
The fight which is being made to bring about the
revision of the measure is not to give economic
advantage to the residents of Hawaii to force eco
nomic disadvantage any other part OF the country
It is fight to maintain the principle that all Amer
leans under the flag deserve equal justice under the
law and equality of treatment from the Federal leglsa-
ture in all Federal matters
The lengthy consideration which the Agriculture
Committee is giving the gives rise to the hope
that the committee is preparing to carry out IN the
sugar bill the compact which made when Hawaii
gave up her Independent status voluntarily and be-
came an INTEGRAL PART OF THE UNITED
STATES
As an integral part of the United States, Hawaii, Of
course deserves the same treatment any other In
tegral part of the United States.
But the BILL in its last available draft treats Hawaii
more in the nature of foreign country than part
of the United States
The bill would place restrictions on HawaH's prin-
cipal product-sugar legislature would
think of placing any product of any of the States
It would tell Hawaii the specific form in which its
product must be shipped while leaving to sugar pro-
ducing States the determination of how they shall ship
the same product.
The distinctions which the measure would set up
as between component and integral parts of the
country cry aloud for elimination.
IT Is TO BE HOPED THAT THE COMMITTEE
ON AGRICULTURE WILL DO THE ELIMINATING
ITSELF RATHER THAN MAKE IT NECESSARY
FOR CONGRESS AS WHOLE TO ACT TO KEEP
THE TERRITORY OF HAWAII.
