Neither surprise nor serious disap- pointment will be occasioned by fail- ure of the international bankers as- sembled in Paris to agree upon the terms of a loan to Germany. It was at best a forlorn hope, for without changes In fundamental conditions there did not appear to be a sufficient basis of credit or other safeguards which would have induced public sub- scription to a loan of a billion dollurs or more, The bankers had little re- gard -for political considerations, but dealt with realities, and the realities were against a loan. There was no real conviction, at least in this country, that a loan of even a billion dollars would do more than postpone the day of reckoming. and it was feared that when the in- evitable reckoning came it would be more difficult because of the loan. 1 mo., 85¢ Germany seemed eager to DOrTOW @ |inc resnonaibiitty for the results of billion or two of American dollars, but that was because Germany was confranted with a crisis which some- how must be tided over. The intel- ligent German financiers knew no per- manent solution was to be achieved that way. Frank A. Vanderlip quotes ‘Walter Rathenau, Germany's brilllant foreign minister, as saying: “It is idle to talk of foreign loans, they would be no permanent benefit to us in the present state of affairs.” That is the view Americans have taken of the proposed lcan since it was first profected. It would do mo permanent good in the present state of affairs. What is needed is funda- mentally to change the present state of affairs, and that is the one thing which European statesmanship ap- peags to lack the capacity or the cour- age to undertake. For three years row European politico-doctors have been rushing about applying pallatives to symptomatic outbreaks, and all the while the festering seat of the trouble was exposed to their gaze, in- spiring ‘in their minds only the desire to edge farther and fafther away from it. € The bankers at Puris are to be con- gratulated upon ‘their sanity and un- derstanding. It is concelvable that less able men might have been lured by a prospect of huge profits into un- dertaking flotation of the lo&n; only to be left to hold the bag filled with un- derwritten but unmarketable bands. The bankers representing the few European countries which have lend- able funds knew their own donstitu- encies, and they were well advised by Mr. Morgan of conditions in the United States. So the loan ie off, and there has gome glimmering one more hope of the European siatesmen that they can avoid dealing with actuall- ties. Premature Jubilation. Some .of the democratic leaders are Injudiciously jubilant over recent re- publican pominations. They may not bear the "interpretations put upon them. At any rate, they are as yet but nominations. They must go through the fires of a campaign and an election.” v It may be well to recall at this time the famous recipe for hare soup—first catch your hare. Before the republican party can be destroyed from within men must be elected to ‘office ‘with that object. in view and with a program for achiev- ing that result. That the democrats should desire the thing done is natural enough. ‘They have been trying for many vears to turn the trick from the outside, but -somehow their best laid plans bave gone “a-gley.” No republican of size sufficient to Influence in- any measure national policies has yet been nominated this year for officec whose past record or present position warrants a calcula- tlon that in office he would work for the embarrassment or division of his party in 1924. On the contrary, all the nominees have accepted their honors as republican in name and character, and thereby committed themselves to a course of consulta- tions as to what should be done and how to do it looking to keeping the party fit for service and in power to render service. i i —_——— The annual summer strike an- nouncements are already in prepara- tion, and the public hopes for the post- ponements that have .in so many in- stances taken place. .- “Tired of Strikes.” Hats off to Jobn H. Donlon, presi- dent of thé buliding trades depart- { planet. indiscriminately. It knows that much of the fault lies with employers, who sometimes, in order to defeat the legitimate wishes of their workers, ciose ‘the doors and compel idleness. But it aleo knows that strikes are often called without any warrant as of new scales of pay withont regard |for the state of the Industry or the |burden already borne by the con- sumers. This statement of Mr. Donlon is es- pecially valuable just at this time, | with the raiiroad unfons about to take jstrike votes om the reductiens al. ready and about to be ordered by the Railroad Wage Bourd. If those strike votes result, as they usually do, in fa- vor of a walkout on the part of the various brotherhoods wffected, - the radlroads may be tied up In a strike that will cost the American people hundreds of millions of dolars in lost service, In lost wages and in eventual higher prices. . Heretofore the trouble has been that strikes are ordered without & suf- ficient reckoning of the cost or the ef- fect. Whether it is true, as Mr. Don- lon says, “that those responsible for strikes in cities are always in the minerity™ may be known only to the inner circles of labar organizations. But the public does know that many strikes have been called against which there is a powerful sentiment inside the arganizations. Strike votes are cast ily in the affirmative, because as a rule they are merely In the form of authorizations for the calling of strikes in certain contingencies. Ia other wards, the membership vests & few leaders with the power to call a strike when in their judgment it is desirable or neces- sary. Decision is usually made by a very small pumber. ‘ The Supreme Court decision in the Coronado csse may lead to a better- maent of this condition through center- strikes upon those who order them. Mr. Donlon’s suggestion of a national bullding trades governing body will doubtiess be considered in relation to of the country is that organized labor will realize the truth of his statement that the public is “tired of strikes.” ————— Restoration. Replacement of the Linculn statue upon its original site in front of the courthouse is assured by the adoption by the Senate vesterday of a joint resolution already adopted by the House, with certain amendments that the House is altogether likely to ac- cept promptly upon appropriation for the work of replace- ment, and this is added mow by the | Senate. The language of the resolu- tion is also.changed to permit the re- placement upon “approximately” the original site, so that It will be possible to cause it to conform to the changed conditions of the space. Against this there is no objection whatever, “so long as the site actually chosen car- ries out the purpos¢ to restore the first memorial to Lincoln to its first setting, from which it was removed without due thought. = _ i ‘This action virtually .closes an epi- sode that has had a deep significance. ‘The removal of the statue was ordered by Congress without sufficient con- sideration- and without adequate .safe- guards against the obliteratien of this eloquent testimonial of the people, given in the first days of the national sorrow over the death of Lincoln. The people of the capital, failing to get financial assistance from other cities for the erection of-a memarial t0.the martyred President, proceeded to erect one with their own small resources. It was the first to be raised in this country, and.as such has a historical meaning that transeends all other con- siderations. Congress has now.recog- nized the propriety of preserving the shaft and statue, Inartistic as the memorial may seem to some, inade- qQuate as It may be as 3 present-day expression of the national féeling. Had provision been made at the time of the removal of the shaft for its replacement in another and & suit- able site, thers would have been no serious objection, however regretful the District may have been that a significant landmark had bean shifted. Neglect of this duty aroused a feel- ing tbat could mot, in the end, be as suaged save by the replacement of the memorial in its original position. It is plain that tokens of public senti- ment may not be lightly disregarded. However art standards may change for the better, ‘public memorial "ex- pressions are not to be treated with regard solely for their, relation to the latest styles. They are part of the his- tory of the people and are to be cher- ished even though they may not please all eyes. This order for the replacément of the statue is a- graceful acknowledg- ment of a mistake, and is appreciated by the community that gave of Its meager means this first physical ex- pression of the people’s sorrow for the passing of Lincoln. —_——————— ‘A report that Dr. Efnsteln Has been requested to ‘interest himself in the league of nations inspires the hope that a man who has studied the rela- comparatively small a matter as the political relationship on a single —_——— Uncle 8am is invited to referee many questions ‘abroad: the sugges- tion belng thrown out, however, that hie arrange to give hid¢ decisions the ment of the” American Federation of behefit of financial backing.

This comciu- sion Is drawn not from the etiquette books but from editorial discassion of President Harding's failure to at- tend the dedication of the Na- tional Woman's Party headquarters in Washington, after accepting the in- witation.

From this point of view, must editora believe the Presi- dent was “correct” when he adminis- | tered what the Springfield Unjon (re-{ publican) calls a ‘“praiseworthy snub.” ! There is still something to be said from the etiquette point of vie: Eowever, and the Providence Tribune, | an independent Tepublican paper, | takes occasion to say it. Admitting that the President's participation might have been politically unwis “it does seem a drop from courtes: in the Tribune’s opinion. failed to appear at the last moment mfter having accepted the invitation and with no excuse whatever for hi non-appearance. His letter anaounc: ing that he could not be present was vague, shadowy, rhetorical and_on the whole unsatisfactory. ® ¢ @ Had he refused the invitation when i it ‘'was first offered to him, there would not have been the sting to the blow delivered at the party that was felt on Sunday. But to have adopted _the slipshod, ~ dllly-dallving course that he did seems hardly praiseworthy.” From a southern democratic paper, the Columbia (S. C.) State, comes the suggestion that perhaps the President was a bit “off his feed,” so to speak, where voting women are concerned, so “stung by the defeat of his fa- vorites In Ohio, Indiana and Pennsyl- vania, largely the work of the wom- en,” he ‘brusquely.refused to attend the meeting.” . However, the majority, while per- haps not so fulsome as the Boston (independent ican), which declares the Presiden: sence from the dedication ceremo: *the most courageous single act” of *an administration that has not been lacking in this characteristic,” teel with the Knickerbocker-Press ( bany, republican), that “the Presi-: dent’s attitude is correct, and the| the only cause for regret is that thej attitude of a few women compelled him to decline thelr invitation.” He was “t0o consclentious to approve” the spirit behind the dedication, the St. Joseph (Mo.)
