This proposition amounts to practical confiscation on the part of the German governnient. “There are also claims on file with the state department for the loss of property and life at sea, growing out of submarine sinkings previous to April 6, 1917. “If the German property wero re- turned today without any conditions, the tax laws in force in Germany would require German nationals or other people under the jurisdiction of ‘the German government, whose! prop- erty was returned to them, to give up in taxes to the German govern- ment a major portion of the funds re turned.

Alluding to the British debt of 952,- 000,000 pounds sterling to America, Mr. Goodenough said: “This amount was borrowed from American after she entered the war, and during the same period @ some: what larger sum was lent by Great Britain to her allies, in addition to what already had been lent before that period. It is important to note that Great Britain had not lent this, sum, it would not have been necessary for her to borrow a one-penny piece from America. Everyone will agree that through the action of Great Britain America is in a better position than if this money had been lent by her di- rectly to the other allies. I do not suggest that Great Britain should not pay this debt for which she made herself Hable. My own view is that Great Britain inevitably will pay her debts in full, even though they were incurred on behalf of others. But I feel in such a case as this America should not press us but should give ample time for payment and should lend a friendly hand in the matter of interest by modifying the rates charged in the earlier days while we were finding it a hard struggle to cope with the finaneis] obligations which were incurred’ through the, part we played in the war.” Overwork A man with crepe upon his arm Came in today and said: T’ve lost the best old Pal on earth, My poor old wife is dead.
