resolution. However, the circum-
stances in this instance are unusual
and require drastic action. Bridges
portation has been recommended by
several inspectors of the Immigra-
ton Bureau. For years he has To-
mented strikes and labor trouble on
the west coast. His activities have
cost labor and industry millions of
dollars in lost time and production.
He should have been deported six or
seven years ago but Ma Perkins,
Secretary of Labor, herself a little
on the pink order, has used her posi-
ton on several occasions to prevent
his deportation, hence it is necessary
for Congress to act.
Finland Continues Payment.
One day last week Uncle Sam
wrote to IL European governments to
remind them that payments on their
war debts would be due on June Is.
AS usual, Finland was the only one
that promised to meet the payment.
On Saturday, Hjalmar ]. Procope,
Finnish Minister, personally deliv-
cred to the Treasury Department
$3.50 1893, the full amount due. Finland
is the only European debtor nation
that has never defaulted on a pay
ment to Uncle Sam. AS a result,
her credit is Al.
How much better would it not have
been for the Allies had they been
equally prompt in meeting their obi
cations to the United States. Then
they would be in position to ask
for further loans now that they sorely
need help. They began defaulting
eight or nine years ago, using the
plea that they were not able to meet
the payments. Since that time each
one has spent for preparedness and
war several times the sum on which
they defaulted, so they can hardly
expect us to fall all over ourselves
in granting them additional credits
which we know will never be repaid.
Will not Adjourn.
The plan of the New Dealers to
force adjournment of Congress on
June %, has gone awry, and all be-
cause the folks back home have said,
"stay on the job so long as the emer-
gency continues" / think it is we'll
for the country that Congress has
decided to remain in Washington
throughout the summer, and if neces-
sary right up to January when the
new Congress will take over.
Emissions Bright Future.
In these days when so many sing
paeans of gloom as to Americas eco
nomic future it is heartening to have
an outstanding economist paint the
road before us in bright colors. Dr.
Harold G. Moulton, president of
Brookings Institution, and one of
Americas outstanding economists,
had the following to say at a recent
gathering of economists in Washing
ton.
at is abundantly evident that our
economic system has not yet devel-
oped to point where it can provide
the great masses of the American peo-
pie satisfactory minimum standards
of living, let alone the requirements
for the good life.
