Tt is significant, however, that a more practical form of moratorium is in continual practice all around us, this being the revision of old debts and the adjustment of terms between creditor and debtor on the basis of ability to pay.

To make the necessary adjustments ‘we need a Moses to lead, and ability and willingness on the part of the people to follow him. The Shoe Pinches ‘The shoe which France placed on her foot when she refused to pay her evidently is beginning to pinch. There is no other interpretation of Paul-Boncour'’s hurried visit to Am- |bassador Edge to talk over the debt; situation and ask for assistance in reaching some new arrangement which would be-more mutually sa- tisfactory. Even the French are cognizant of the contempt of the rest of the world (because of France's refusal to pay. She suffers all the more by com-| parison with England which, far less able to meet her obligations, hand- ed her gold across the counter and rejected France's pleas that she join; in an effort to squeeze the United! States into cancellation or further reduction. The effect of the whole business has been to harden the will of the American people against the French and to cement friendly relations with England and the French are diplo- matists enough to recognize the fact. There is reason, of course, for a change in the French attitude. We find it in the fact that America still is the world’s greatest creditor na- tion and the world’s banker. French repudiation of an honest debt raises the danger signal for every lender. If France should ever find herself, engaged in another major war, and this could happen to France more easily than to any other nation, there would be little disposition on the part of financial powers to heed any post-war debts to the United States | Which Course to Follow? . |]i¢ was making a study of hiccups at a PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE | By William Brady, M.

It is a long lane to be hard-boiled institutions but a circular recently sent out to clients by ore of them gives blunt notice that many who hold claims had bet- ter scale them down if they wish to collect anything. The explanation is made that many persons became heavily involved during the period of higher prices and higher incomes, and these, if pushed too hard, may go through bankruptcy as an alter- native. Others, it is explained, owe more than they feel they ever will be able to pay and these exercise a natural inclination to pay nothi rather than attempt a hopelegstask. Unless their bills are zéduced no money is secured, » if an ad- justment had mm made, at least a part of the bill would have been col- sectible. Another factor in the situation, ac- cording to this agency, is the diffi- culty some merchants havé in keep- ing the cash business of persons who owe them money.

If a man who owes money cannot pay, he owes it to himself to inform his creditors of the fact. If an adjustment as to amount will clarify the situation it should be made, but in any event friendly relations should be main- tained. The basis of a tremendous volume} of future business is being laid in these times. | | A Stupid World One wonders, viewing the current scene, if there is really a pint of constructive brains in the whole world; if all of us have not been stricken with paralysis above the ears. A leading state official, in a recent letter to the editor, pointed out that ours is the only society in which a aituation such as we now have could possibly exist; that the savages of darkest Africa would have good times because of the bountiful supply of food, clothing and the wherewithal to construct shelter. One of the nation’s leading indus- trialists recently put it this way: “It is stupid to suffer as the world has suffered recently and will suffer for months to come. It is probably a stupid as the old epidemics before We learned ‘the cAuse of typhoid fever ne a the necessary cure to ) tf epidemics in civilized for all time, We must apply attitude ef mind, the same shown by the medical zB it giXneer and fun-making often carry| ‘stance, the Christmas tree. | tem of exchange would be in units which has no turning and the French are a canny race.

Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors. They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's policies, Technocracy (N. Y. World-Telegram) A stimulating tempest of discus- sion has blown up almost overnight about the views of a group in New York, self-styled “technocracy,” who been made obsolete by our mechan- ical advances. Unemployment is man-made. The theory of the technocrats is radical, yet simple enough in its fun- damentals to be easily understood and popular. Briefly, they say we produce enough now so that if the burden of debts and interest were lifted, and a technical operation sub- stituted for our political system, each of us would need to work only six- teen hours a week. And even at that level each of us could liye at a very high standard—possibly at the rate of a $20,000 a year income. Such a change would mean an end of our political system and our “price system.” We would be gov- erned. by .technicians,. and our sys- of energy instead of commodities, the technocrats suggest. One suggestion of the technocrats is tremendously appealing.

The grave is filled with a Pine-scented fluid, and nearby are two bottles similar to that found in the office of Dr. Humphrey Maskell, Geraldine’s employer. Two women were seen leaving the doctor's office carrying sim- ilar bottles. Colt picks up a blond hair at the scene of the crime. Mrs. Morgan, a neighbor, corrob- orates the doctor's statement that he was with her daughter the day of the disappearance. He claims a strange woman was wait- ing outside his office when he re- turned. Other suspects are Geral- dine’s brother, Bruce, who is to inherit her estate, and Harry Arm- strong, the victim’s former fiance. Armstrong states he phoned Geral- dine from Hartford, the night be- fore she disappeared to suggest they elope, but she refused. Colt learns that Bruce Foster is an adopted child, whose father was hung for murder. It is believed, however, that Mr. Foster is the boy's real father. Mrs. Haber- horn, owner of the Peddler’s Road house, identifies Dr. Maskell as i kell tells of receiving a phone call from Geraldine on January Sth, Saying she was in trouble and re- questing him to meet hers She The doctor denies taking her to Peddler’s Road.

He stood up and began pacing around in a twelve- foot circle, and for a moment I thought his collapse was near. But no, he was still in thorough com- mand of himself, though he looked a bit weary when a new detail of smiling well-slept detectives came in to take over the job of question- ing him. No one but Thatcher Colt knew how long this grim inquisition would proceed and the Commis- sioner was. keeping his own coun- sel. At cock-crow, they were still at it and the doctor was un- daunted.

Although the hour was scarcely more than six o'clock, he was ex: quisitely attired in grey trousers and a long-tailed coat, stiff shirt, a high stand-up collar and flowing black tie that gave him an old- fashioned, out-moded, almost a ministerial air. He smiled at me as he entered, but already my eyes had fled from his familiar face to study his com- anion. That was the first time I ad ever seen Natalie Maskell.
