LONG-DISTANCE DEBATE The persisting controversy over the war debts sees an interesting initiative assumed by M. Vincent Auriol, the French Socialist Deputy who was a member of the Caillaux mission to Washington a year ago. M. Auriol has written and now makes public a letter on the subject to Mr. William E. Borah, in view of the latter’s position as leader of the "Last Red Cent" group in the United States. Sent two months since and still without a reply, M. Auriol’s letter offers the suggestion that there be a general cancellation of war debts, with the German Government required to pay only a portion of the reparation demanded, this portion to be sufficient to meet some of the French expenditure for reconstruction. A thesis on these lines has been supported in the past by the Senator from Idaho, although he is inclined to attach political conditions as regards Europe to action of the sort in America. So it is not impossible that he should yet decide to answer. On one previous occasion he engaged in long-distance correspondence referring to the matter. In recent weeks, again, Mr. Borah no doubt has been busy with the Congressional campaign and with his own embryo "boom" for the Presidency. It might be well if Mr. Borah would do so, for the sake of developing further a field of international

So it is not impossible that he should yet decide to answer. On one previous occasion he engaged in long-distance correspondence referring to the matter. In recent weeks, again, Mr. Borah no doubt has been busy with the Congressional campaign and with his own embryo "boom" for the Presidency. It might be well if Mr. Borah would do so, for the sake of developing further a field of international discussion. Clemenceau last summer took a step away with his now celebrated letter to the President of Washington: It came to nothing concrete, whatever its effects in the abstract, because Mr. Coolidge’s office prevented him from discussing a matter of Government policy with a private citizen of the foreign country concerned. No such consideration operates for Mr. Borah or M. Auriol. No reason appears at this time why communications between them on the subject should not take place at length and even give rise eventually to a sort of Franco-American symposium in which prominent men of both countries would take part. A proceeding of this variety needs run no risk of being confused with the activities of unattached diplomatic attachés, who hold themselves out as qualified to speak for their Governments. A general cross-Atlantic debate by correspondence, on the contrary, might have the useful result of enlightening the public in each nation on the views of that in the other. It could be brought out, for example, as regards America, that the mind of the nation upon the war debts is made up. As regards France, it could be shown that there is a widespread feeling of unfairness in the

As regards France, it could be shown that there is a widespread feeling of unfairness in the system proposed. To reconcile these conflicting views, in so far as that is possible, could not but advance the date of the general understanding which eventually is due to dispose of the war debts and reparation together. In any case, nothing but good could result from a meeting of the minds of men of goodwill. IT IS WORN IN PARIS American Comment “What the political bosses would like to have is the primary without the prize.” —Norfolk Virginian-Pilot. “But the million-dollar senator is probably after all not as dangerous as the poor one for whose election the millionaires are willing to make astounding contributions.” —Columbus Dispatch. “Republican policies have forced the farmer to sell in an unprotected market and to buy in a protected one. Fordneyism has spared manufacturers the inconvenience of having to sell their goods at home at prices prevailing in the world markets; but that is just what the farmer is compelled to do, and no tariff can save him from it.

The victory of the 'Red' Cantonese army at Hanyang, Wuchang and Hankow entirely changes the China situation. Its true significance cannot be too quickly grasped by the foreign Powers having interests in this country. They have to consider something more than questions of trade, important as those are; they face to face with the prospect of Russia’s plans to Sovietize China spreading in a large area, from which the movement may ultimately spread throughout this vast country, becoming a menace to the whole of Asia if not to the world." — Shanghai Times. "The leader monkey in Paris puts on a traveler’s cap, and all the monkeys in America do the same." — Thoreau, "Walden." They do still, and they are likely to continue to do so. Thoreau was not over pleasant about it, but he stated a fact, a fact which cannot be displaced. An American weekly newspaper has published an article by a Fifth Avenue "style adviser" who is attempting to belittle the importance of Paris as the world centre of haute couture. Paris dressmakers, says the Fifth Avenue authority, cater to American women, who alone are well dressed; seeking to please their customers, the dressmaker promotes ideas originating in America; therefore Paris fashions are

Paris dressmakers, says the Fifth Avenue authority, cater to American women, who alone are well dressed; seeking to please their customers, the dressmaker promotes ideas originating in America; therefore Paris fashions are Parisian somewhat in the manner that Manchester goods are manufactured for India from Indian cotton. The presence of thousands of American buyers in Paris year after year is in itself the most eloquent rebuttal of this superficial argument. Certainly the American craftsman is as skilled as his European fellow. If it is American ideas which now set the fashion, American cutters and seamstresses would be quite capable of translating those ideas into fabric. The American is too keen a businessman to spend much money in sending representatives to France if he could reproduce the Parisian cachet at home. As a matter of fact, it is the peculiar creative genius of French couturiers which makes Paris the authority for fashions. Ingenuity, a feeling for beauty, and centuries of tradition make artists of Paris dressmakers in a city which is a centre of all the arts. They were giving puffed sleeves, veils for conventional French Comment. In accord with their policy, papers of the Left have seized upon the developments of the thwarted Catalan revolution as an opportunity to attack Signor Mussolini.

"Pertinax" in the Echo de Paris (Nationalisé) says: "Desiring to consolidate the dictatorial regime, the Italian Cabinet yesterday took strong resolutions. Thus, political life on the peninsula will differ more and more from ours. The only means to prevent habits and institutions, so opposed to each other, from serious conflict is to abolish all questions of sovereignty and national independence." The Petit Parisien (Independent) reviews established details relative to Colonel Garibaldi’s activities. Until the outcome of the present investigation is known, it prefers to state: "We would not do Signor Mussolini the injustice of believing that he was aware of these dealings." German Comment. German papers show little interest in the American elections. The Tagespiegel and the Diplomatic and Political Correspondence point out that the displacement of the Senate majority will probably have no effect at all upon Washington’s policy regarding Europe, especially concerning the war debts and the Paris conference. The Tageliche Rundschau joins in the general view in an article declaring that the final outcome of the Paris conference depends upon France reaching a decision regarding ratification of the Washington accord. "The Franco-German accord is a matter of considerable time, but there is another problem which should be settled with little delay." It says. "That is military control.

The state of our armaments and the entry of Germany in the League of Nations make the presence of a commission on our territory unjustifiable. We should demand that the commission be withdrawn." Italian Comment. Enthusiastic articles in praise of Signor Mussolini have been published by all newspapers in Rome following his return from Bologna. On the day of his return, the Impero wrote: "This evening the Fascist revolution should accelerate its rhythm. The enemies of Fascism and of Italy should be totally suppressed. Fascist vengeance for the disloyal! After this evening, the Utopian foolishness under which each one thinks with his own head should come to an end. Italy has a single head, Fascism has a single brain, that of the Duce. Every head raised in opposition should be destroyed without pity." Spanish Comment. The plots discovered at Perpignan do not indicate any political troubles in the Spanish Peninsula itself, several Madrid papers declare, explaining that rumors printed in foreign papers are false. "The opponents of the Government are fewer each day, because reality never confirms their hopes," writes the Debate. "The position of General Primo de Rivera is very strong, and he will be able to remain in power for many years, if he so desires." Turkish Comment.

Criticism has been made in Turkey against British and Italian attitude to Mediterranean problems, but the arrival of M. Daeschner as French Ambassador has afforded an opportunity to show a decidedly friendly attitude towards France. The Journalist writes: "We are two countries beginning to know each other. We are a new Turkey. Since the Treaty of Versailles, France is a new France. That is why we say that Franco-Turkish relations begin today. It is for the statesmen of the two new countries to strengthen these bonds." Similar sentiments are expressed in the Ikdam, but it is added that M. Daeschner should offer his aid for the realization of a Yugoslav-Turkish alliance, in order that a new Mediterranean policy may be evolved. "Such an alliance would create solid foundations for France’s policy in the Near East," Most experts agree that the writings found at Glozel, dating from prehistoric times, are genuine. Such finds have been at least as frequent in France as in other countries. The principal interest concerning the Glozel discoveries relates to the claim by their finder that the inscriptions on some of the earthen tiles unearthed by him represent an alphabet, the first linear alphabet, according to his

Such finds have been at least as frequent in France as in other countries. The principal interest concerning the Glozel discoveries relates to the claim by their finder that the inscriptions on some of the earthen tiles unearthed by him represent an alphabet, the first linear alphabet, according to his theory, devised by man. For this contention, with the corollary that alphabets already known and the one in use today are derived from writings like these named for Glozel, there are numerous supporters. Among the experts in France ranging on this side of the controversy are such men as M. Salomon Reinach, head of the Muséum at Saint-Germain-en-Laye, M. Esmeralda Moutet, and Comte Begon. The contrary thesis was presented again to the French Academy of Inscriptions last evening by M. Camille Jullian, a savant who is perhaps the leading authority on life and customs in Gallo-Roman times. The relics found at Glozel are genuine for the most part, in the opinion of M. Camille Jullian, who dismisses the general charge of forgery already brought in this connection. But this scientist denies the claim that the relics had been in the place where they were found since centuries before the beginning of recorded time. “Sorcerers Used Them” Relics of the sort, according to M. Jullian, were frequently unearthed in Gallo-Roman times in France and were used as a regular thing by the sorcerers who flourished in country places. These sorcerers supposed the objects to have magic powers and the latter figured
