Washington-It is fair-to-mid-
ding bet that by the time Con-
gress gets through talking about
Hungary's proposal to settle the
war Greatly post-war) debt the
cost of printing the discussion in
the Congressional Record at S55
a page will equal two or three an
nual payments.
Rumors of the Hungarian debt
settlement offer got about the
Capitol several days before the
announcement was made formal
ly and the members of Congress
hardly could restrain themselves.
LET the debtor nations pay US
in things we don't have" said
Senator Schwellenbach of Wash
ington. (Mr. Schwellenbach, we
don't have any Hungarian leather
knee-pants nor do we have Brit

we will call off our part of the

Actually the debts don't figure
UP to so much when spread among
the population. If the debtor
countries were making their pay
ments now it would be in the
neighborhood of S275,000,000 a
year, or $3.50 a person.
What the Hungary offer seems
almost certain to do is to revive
the whole debt discussion. If Hun
gary is granted anything like the
terms it asks, other countries will
try to edge in with a settlement
equally easy.

How 1t Started

How 1t Started
In announcing the proposal,
John Pelenyi, tall handsome and
Aforementioned Hungarian min
lister, called reporters to the
Chancery, an apartment on 10th
street. Choicest item. served was
little decorated test-tube of
Hungarian peach brandy which
burned softly, like hot cotton, and
smelled of blossoms.
Then the chubbyish financial
adviser passed out copies of the
Hungarian proposal. This is its
basis:
In 1920 Hungary, wasted from
fighting the Allies, desperately
needed food and the u. S. sent
over 1880 tons of flour worth
81 ,685, 900. BY 1924 interest to-
tailed $253,000. In funding agree
ment reached that year the two
sums were Jumped together and
Hungary began paying. BY 1881
it had paid $478,000 and then
stopped. No money in the till.
Now it asks the United States
to credit that S478,000-nearly all
of which was interest-against
the original $1,685 900 due for the
-four, leaving $1,207, 900. Interest
would be abolished altogether and
Hungary would pay the debt at
S39, 900 year for 80 years.

IN THIS COLUMN, THINGS WE
aren't kicking about. First of all the sub
district schools choosing Redwood Falls for
the tourney. We appreciate the compliment
to our auditorium and the city's hospitality.
Patrons of the meet will be rewarded with
some classy, spirited basketball.
NO KICK ON THE FARMERS INSTI-
tute, program, speakers, prizes, even the eats
as planned. If the event interests farmers
as much as anticipated, it should be made
an annual affair. We are never too old to
learn and with that array of speaking
talent there should be some hints dropped
at the meetings that can be taken proftably
by the county's best farmers.
BEST SIGN OF SPRING IN AN UP
and footing community is the talk about
building. Redwood Falls people are talking
more new homes this season than for several
years. Even bridge hands get cold while the
wives talk jargon of air conditioning, insul-
alton, plumbing, millwork. Those residents
who thought they were building on the out
skirts a few years ago find themselves
practically up town now. If all the expan-
sion takes place that people are getting esti-
mates on now, somebody will be applying
for streetcar franchise in the fall. No kick
on this, the city's just letting out it's belt
for another boost in prospective subscribers.

The cooperative spirit displayed and the
sacrifices made by this small group in order to
build temple of God" in one of Ashe countys
best communities, should serve as a spiritual in

and surrounding area.
AS builder of enduring churches" that will
last for ages and as true messenger of Christ,
few are the ministers in the southland who
have established records equal of Rev. Mr..

other fine preachers who are spreading the
teachings of the great Master of Men.

In Europe dictators use their powerful armies
to influence elections, while in the United
States we are using borrowed dollars that may
never be paid back to promote liberalism.
Freedom of speech, of the press and of wor-
ship are sacred heritages Of ours and we accord
to the President every right to the full use of
freedom of speech, but we do think he should
actively engage in POLITICAL campaigns in every
hamlet of the nation. Somehow or other we
cannot visualize such campaigning as being in
keeping with the duties of the president of the
United States.
