Secretary Mellon's plain statement that the government of the United States expects the eleven billion dol- lars of indebtedness owed this gov- ernment by the governments of Eu- rope to be handled on a businesslike basis is calculated to put a stop, for the time being at least, to the talk of general cancellation. Neither the gov- ernmant nor the people of the United States expect the nations of Europe to do the impossible, and there is not the slightest disposition to push hard- pressed debtors to the wall. It is recog- nized that some parts of the debt prob- ably mever will be collected. because the debtors are hopelessly insolvent; bug & merchant does not cancel good accounts because he has bad accounts on his books, and it has repeatedly been made plain that all this indebted- ness was legitimately contracted, and that at the time the loans were made there was no understanding or sug- gestion other than that they would be paid in full. It do:s mot necessarily follow that all the indebtedness must be paid in gold or in goods exported directly by the debtor nations. Gold payments are largely out of the question, and pay- ment in goods presents many difficul- ties, as embarrassing in some ways to this country as to the countries which owe us money. In fact, the best eco- nomic minds have not been able to figure out how we could receive pay- ment of even the interest on eleven billien dollars without serious injury to American industry. But that does not affect either the validity or the Jjustice of the indebtedness or alter the fact that it is a proper lien against the assets of the debtor nations. In this connection a proposal by Dr. Sum Yat-Sen, who it is expected will be the first president of a reunifled China, is of more than passing in- terest. A cable dispatch from Shanghai to the Philadelphia Public Ledger quotes Dr. Sun as suggesting that in the general scheme of settling inter- national indebtedness there be con- sidered the posaibility of transferring to America the European share of China’'s national indebtedness in part liquidation of Europe's indebtedness to the United States. Dr: Sun’s sugges- tion certainly is worthy of considera- tion. When once a stable government iy established in China almost limitless opportunities for trade and investment will be opened up, and for this coun- try to be the chief creditor of China and the chief holder of Chinese securi- tles would give us an advantage of almost incalculable value. However doubtful e risk China may be today, the time is not distant when the orien- tal republic will be one of the world's greatest producers of wealth, and in- vestments there will look much better than investments in some of the coun- tries of Europe. Mr. Hughes’ Trip: Mr. Hughes is the fourth Secretary of State to carry to our southern neighbors assurances of our friendship and good wishes. Mr. Root went, and discharged his mission with much pleasure to himself and profit to the country. Our rela- tions with Latin America were im- proved by his visit. Mr. Knox followed, and repeated Mr. Root's success. He was hospitably received, and all comment on his visit, both in Latin America and at home here, was in the key of compliment. As the second Wilson administration drew to its close Mr. Colby, at Mr. Wilson's instance, went down and de- livered a message of interest to all the nations of the western hemisphere. He, too, was hospitably received, and returned home feeling well rewarded for his trip. Now Mr. Hughes goes. on & some- what similar errand and gharged with a like message. Our interest in our neighbors continues cordial and sin- cere, and we rejoice in all evidences of thelr strength and progress. Mr. Hughes has an advantage over his three predecessors which he is cer- taln to improve. The times are pro- pltious for stronger relations than ever between Latin America and Anglo- Saxon America, and so able and capa- ble 2 man as the present head of our State Department will do all in his power to establish them. Our southern friends will be safe in accepting him as representative of our best citizen- ship and one of the most accomplished men in our public life today. In addition to being a fearful tragedy, the assassination of Michael Collins was a pitiable tactical blunder. Conference activities consume much time in the effort to fix the blame for disagregment. —————— The Effect of Collins’ Death. Perhaps Michael Collins’ death has actually aided rather than harmed the cause of the Irish Free State, as against the insurrection that was ap- parently in its last stage when he fell in ambush. Tom Hales, the leader of the republican force that cornered Col- lins and his guard and slew the leader of the regular army, has ennounced that he is through, recanting his ep- position to the insurrection and offer- »ing to join the national forces. The death of Collins made a pro- ‘found Impressien in Ireland. The highest homors were paid to his _memery in his funeral. In comperi- > ' [$ son the passing of Arthur Griffith, though regarded as a heavy loss, was of slight moment. Collins had been an intrepid soldier of the Sinn Fein and had won e large versonal folowing by his magnetic, fearl personality, while Griffith had been quieter in his methods, less appealing to the public imagination. It is significant that from the mo- ment Collins’ death was known a de- mand erose throughout Ireland that the government at Dublin pursue the campaign of pacification without re- mission, and that it offer no terms to the insurgents. Measures of severity against them were urged, and the sentiment has spread rapidly through the island. Apparently e great blunder was committed when Collins was marked down for slaughter. The Free State government has re- organized, and placed the command of the army in the hands of Richérd Mulcahy, while Willlam Cosgrave suc- ceeds Griffith as civil leader. Both men are favorable to Collins’ policy of conciliation, coupled with necessary measures to restore peace. There is no sign of weakening in the Free State administration, and with a strength- ened public support, due to the killing of Collins, it would seem that the day of pacification is et hand. For which all true friends of Ireland will be hopetul. ———— Memorial Bridge Plans. Alternative projects are before the Arlington memorial commission with respect to the bridge that is to cross the Potomac from the capital to the national cemetery. One follows the plan that has been in contemplation for many years, to start the structure from the western side of the Lincoln Memorial and place its Virginia termi- nal directly opposite the Lee mansion in Arlington. The other proposal is to begin the bridge at the western end of New York avenue extended and strike the cemetery reservation at the northern edge. Between these two plans there should be no question. The former should by all means be adopted. ‘The project for a memorial bridge to Arlington was broached long before the Lincoln Memorial was planned. It had become & definite feature of the general scheme of capital development and was regarded in Congress as an item that must one day be worked out, but subject to delay on the score of cost. It was always contemplated that the bridge was to be started on the Washington side at about the point that later became established as most appropriate by reason of the location of the Lincoln Memorial. When the memorial was placed in Potomac Park, in preference to the Union station plaza, it was considered as a definite establishment of the bridge site. The nation’s tribute to Lincoln and the ancestral home of Lee were to be thus linked by a struc- ture commemorating the reunion of the sections and giving access to the last resting place of those who fell in the civil struggle. The bridge at such a site would be a continuation of the park, an extension of the axis marked by the Capitol, the Washington Monu- ment and the Lincoln Memorial. 1If placed on the more northerly line, in extension of New York avenue, the bridge would have no relation to the Lincoln Memorial, to the Capitol- Monument axis, or to the Lee home at Arlington. It would strike the na- tional cemetery at the far northern edge, quite out of the range of the points of greatest interest at Arling- ton. It would, as the plans are tenta- tively drawn for a structare on this site, be much higher than that con- templated for the memorial site, and if thus constructed would prove a bar- rier to vision that would in great meas- ure obscure the Lincoln Memorial. The commission will soon be defi- nitely considering the question of site and design. It can hardly be conceived that it will ignore the history of the bridge project and the plain propriety of placing it with reference to the memorial rather than with regard for one of the city streets, not at present extended, and if extended likely to make of the bridge a mere commercial traffic structure, with no significance and of disfiguring outlines. i Despite political conjecture, the sim- ple possibility asserts itself that Judge Gary raised wages because he thought it would be & good thing for the steel business. $ Several secret meetings have left the impression that the proceedings would have had no definite interest for the public, even had they beem dis- closed. } The remarks of commuters on the rallway situation are often earnestand sapient, but without practical value in effecting a settlement. } ‘The American farmer is ready to provide the contents of a full dinner pail if the country will provide for utilizing the material. i Very few. great referees get on as smoothly as Landis or Hays. Fool Motorists at Crossings. Striking facts ere disclosed by the Pennsylvania railroad’s recent inquiry into the matter of the behavior of motorists at grade crossings, conduct- ed in Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania and New York, an area ot much road use and heavy railroad traffic, an area, consequently, of fre- quent gradecrossing tragedies. Care- ful check was kept by inspectors on grade crossings in these states, chosen of road use, and it was found that de- the plainest of danger signs motors were driven over the tracks with lit- tle or no care, but on the contrary with such recklegsness that it is a marvel the casualties from collisions ‘were not doubled. three cars bearing license tags from five different states averaged thirty- seven miles an hour across the tracks, while two of the cars were speeding at sixty. Motorists tried, at another crossing, deliberately to heat athers acroes the tracks. Few of the drivers looked to see whether the way was clear. Some of them ran under de- scending gates. Here is a summary of “risks,” compiled from the observation of 831 cases of negligencs, study of with reference to the high percentage spite all warnings and in the face of At one crossing during a period of seventeen hours no less than seventy- ‘which may possibly cause some motor- ists to realize what & deadly chance ie taken at grade crossings: Failing to look in beth directions for trains. Disregard of “‘stop” signals of cross- ing guards. _ Driving under lowering gates. Running on crossings because car is out of control. Stalling on tracks. Deliberate stopping on crossings. Turning around on crossings. Failure to heed warning whistles. Racing other motorists across tracks. Racing to cross tracks ahead of trains in sight. Here are ten reckless things the motorists do at the crossings. There are perhaps others. It is evident that they do about everything possible to invite disaster. If those who run the cars, who thus willfully violate the rules of safety, were the only victims, there would be less occasion for dis- tress. But almost always these fools— they are nothing else—take others into peril with them. Very often they ex- pose their own families. Most of the grade-crossing accident reports tell of father, mother and children dead. The innocents are the chief sufferers. Figures in the Campaign. The man who once poked some statistics he thought overwhelming at Thomas B. Reed, with the old observa- tion that “figures won't lie,” got this observation in reply: ““No, but in the mouth of an agile figurer they can be made to do some extraordinary sums.' The campaign for control of the next Congress is on. Keynoters and stump- ers in general are in full voice. Arith- metical, not rhetorical, figures are the wear. They are large, and are being handled in a large way. The politicians are reveling in them, and making them do “some extraordinary sums.” We began' to think and talk in bil- lions several years ago. The campaign of two years ago resounded with de- liverances about the government's in- take and outgo; about the sources of income and the directions of expendi- ture, and, by and large, about the gov- ernment’s needs under conditions pro- duced by the war, Practice has produced ease and con- fidence. Orators are now discoursing in terms of billions as fluently as for- merly they did in terms of millions. Everything goes, and they are getting away with it before friendly audiences gathered to hear reports about the state of the Union. But, however the figures may fare in this campaign, let none of us lose sight of an ineontestable proposition. ‘Which is that we have a great country and should support our government generously, according to the country’s size and its importance among the na- tions. An Tll-Advised Wet Move. Representative Tinkham of Massa- chusetts was not well advised in the resolution he offered in the House yes- terday calling upon Representative Volstead to resign from the chairman- ship of the judiciary committee of that body. The resolution was based on a charge that in the campaign of two years ago Mr. Volstead received assistance from the Anti-Saloon League. Mr. Tinkham, a wet, ought to have known that the wet cause in this year's campaign carries—for publica- tion—an anti-saloon slogan. No wet of influence is openly championing the saloon. All ere felicitating the coun- try that the saloon is gone for good, and assuring the country that it can- not return; that the sale of light wines and beer can safely be empowered so far as the saloon is concerned; that the demoralizing influences of the saloon and John Barleycorn will never be known in this country again. : Mr. Tinkham is not playing the game. Why should Mr. Volstead be punished if, as charged, ha received assistance two years ago from an or- ganization engaged In work which has for its object making certain what the wets now assert has been accom- plished? The enti-saloon work is in line with the wet profession. The wets, according to their public deliverances, are anti-saloonists themselves. The House took the right action on Mr. Tinkham's proposition. It first 1aid it on the table by a whooping yea vote, and then expunged it from the record by a vote practically unani- mous—141 to 3. ——— Berlin has comparatively little to make her happy, but & few unkind in- timations passing now and then be- tween France and England may con- tribute slightly. —_—————— There are exceptions to the distress in Russia.

Any attempt to economize on hospi- talization charges for disabled soldlers will be bitterly resented by the na- tion at large, according to the n papers which have discussed the con- troversy between Col. Sprague of the hospitalization committes of the American Legion and Brig. Gen. Saw- yer, President Hardlng's personal physician. The sentiment generally seems to be in complete support of the Sprague position, the editors declaring tha regardless of cost, the best possibl care must be provided for all men still under treatment. The demands of th glon generally are character- ized as “reasoned and reasonable,” and as such should be granted to the full- t extent. “Dr. Sawyer has from tl ning.” the New York Post sa. posed the construction of government hospitals for the disabled. Dr. Sa: yer, through his position as personal physician to the President, appointed himself ‘chief co-ordlnator’ of the ‘federal board of hospitalization,’ and in that capacity ordered the appear- ance before him each week of the heads of the various agencies having the hospital work in charge. And what is the record? Simply this: Since the armistice, although some patch- ing has been done here and there, only one new hospital has heen erected by the government. It is our clear duty to care for our disabled soldiers with- out thought of petty economy. This Dr. Sawyer has failed to see.” Unless Gen. Sawyer can all speed” that the charges against him are unfounded he should “stand aside,” the Nashville Banner Insists, because “there is very little r n to think that he is at all capabl passing upon any matter which con- cerns the welfare of war veterans with crippled minds and the happiness of thelr relatives, who must suffer D! omission than of commis n, that of failure to comprehend the nature of the problem and the tremendous changes that have been effected in medical science during and since the war. No one asks the co-ordinator of the country’s efforts in this direction to be 'woll? or stampeded’ into abandoning his policy of rehabilita- tlon if it has the approval of the best medical men. But there will be no the cost may be That the controversy is somewhat of a “tempest In a teapot,” however, is the opinion of the Salt Lake City Deseret News, which believes that “4he soldiers, of course, must not be neglected; they must have the atten- tion they require. At the same time Gen. S8awyer has the right idea com- cerning _the disposition of public funds. If the nation had more men of his stamp in offictal positions the soldiers would not only be taken care of, but there would be mon Treasury to meet other emergenciea.” The Omaha World-Herald sharply objects to this reasoning or to any saving money on the disahled “There are many ways In which the government ought to economies,” it declares, “but on these is not in the care of the helpless men who were brought back from the battleflelds of France shattered in mind and body,” while the St. Louils Post-Dispatch declares that “just as econdary in winning ry in caring for the men wha gave their health to win it.
