Members of the French government are receiving hundreds of letters from all parts of the country, even from peasants, urging that at all costs American claims be satisfied. Some writers suggest the government open publie subscriptions to obtain funds toward paying America, as France raised 5,000,000,000 francs when she d Germany after the war of 1870, There is nothing wrong with the French people. The trouble is with French politicians and French financiers. They desire the money to eome into their country but dislike to see any of it go out. After the war of 1870 the people rushed into the government centers and demanded to sboulder up the war indemnity to Germany and get rid of the claim against them at once. French pride came to their rescue and they were able to accomplish things they did not realize could be performed. France is a fairly rich country and eapable of meeting all of het financial obligations. If the people are able to pull the officials out of the ruck of di rouragement into which they have fallen, the French debt will be paid in reasonable time. arrears, Omit the Twaddle Will Hays, president of motion picture producers and distributors in his wisdom s this: “What we need today is less talk of ‘What's wrong with America’ and more apprecia- tion of ‘What's right in America’ There is nothing deficient in government. The only fault in America today is the fault finders, Of course there i over-regulating of everything. We arg all children and there is a deep p: rchology in the inherent resentment. of the continual ‘Don’t do this.’ We need the honor system while in the nation.” This is. perfectly fine talk to the public? but what Sir Williain should do is redeem some of the fine k that has me before touchi pon picture reform.

Verily, Mr. Bryan is a rare and peculiar exemplar of democracy! But, if permitted, he doubtless will make a characteristic speech and earn his fee as the adyo- rate of the ion employing him. Doubtless Mr. Bryan would be glad if he could by law compel all his fellow citi- rens to believe politically as he believes, which, fortunately, they consistently have refused to do. It also is believed that the majority of them, even in Tennessee, will refuse to belicve that Adam was the plastic victim of designing Eye and an in- telligent snake. Cheering Up the Drys “There is no question but that the bootleggers Are on the run, and with all branches of the government working to- gether, every indication is that the outcome will be satisfactory to everyone interested in law enforcement. Prohibition enforce- ment tsroughout the country has been aided by the rigorous coast Liockade: With the inflow reduced, it had been possible to concentrate on the inland rings and their activities have becn temporarily slackened, with a consequent increased actiy- ity in other sections, which, however, is being met effectively.” Titus does Roy Haynes, national prohibition commissioner, cheer up his countrymen. What these countrymen observe every day, locally, is another story. They see less hope in con- quering the demon rum while the same old conditions of graft, protection and pretense continue to exist in so many sections of the country, Mr. Haynes need not kid himself nor’try to kid anyone else, while there is absolutely no teeth in enforcement efforts, Spencer's Successor George H. Williams, who succeeds the late Selden P, Spen- cer as the junior senator from Missouri, is to bring a dark horse into a field of candidates that already was pretty well defined, Governor Baker could not select any one of the three leading candidates—former Governor Hyde, Assistant Secre- of War Dayis or Congressman Newton—without offend- ing the other two. Mr. Williams is the closest personal friend Governor Baker has, and he has held only two public offices in his life-time, namely circuit judge of St. Louis and delegate at large to the constitutional convention of Missouri in 1923. He is the type of man, it is said, to consolidate the Republican forces in St. Louis and itsmay be possible for him to bring ether the yarious factions among the Republicans in that city, which were determined to prevent the renomination of Senator Spencer had he lived, Debt Prospects * Optimists who expect the debt refunding negotiations now gress between the United States and foreign nations to ected in tax reductions vext year probably will be dis appoilted, says a Washington special despateh. No bope has been held out that any nation is in q position to make any large payments at this time. Most of them will require a mora torium before making payments at all. Most of the nations owiug the United States money will engage in official conver rations with the debt commission before winter, Some of these negotiations may be concluded before congress meets. Requests for moratoriums will be examined in the light of the capacity of th nation to pay. The amount of payments and the time within which each debt will be paid will be determined in the same manner, The interest rate also will be decided by a con- sideration of all factors, So far as can be foreseen, the tax re- duetion next year will result wholly from a surplus derived from sources other than payment on the foreign debt. Now that legislation has about caught up with the drunken driver, something ought to be done about the morons at the sicering wheel, As ull babies are being born in hospitals now it seems that there will be no more Jog cabin presidents, Doubtless fifty years from now some statesman will be running for president ‘on the strength of the fact that he was born in the public ward. them an air of genius, a trait of something contemplative and sub: born in the same little town.
