Belgium has re ceived special consideration, particu- larly in the matter of the mc bor- rowed from us during the war, but the very grounds on which special | consideration is based close the door | to French and Italian hopes. | The main concession made. the agreement 1o forgive all interest on the money borrowed during the war, | is explained by a quasi-commit | made by the late President Wilson, | |at Paris, whereby the United s | like all the other Belgiun creditors— {and Belgium borrowed from I { and Britain as well as from the United | States—agreed to accept a Percentage | of German reparations payments in lieu of direct Belgian payments.

This will be a great disappointment to both the French and the Italians who have continued to hope for all of these things. Moreover, what makes it still worse for them is the fact that Britain. to whom they owe about the same amount. insists upon pay- ment. y passu with us. Of course. the whole Belglan transaction is re insignificant by comparison with what the British was and the | French and Italian must be. the total | of the principal of the British debt alone being 10 times as great, while French and Italian accounts combined are materially larger than the British. For the United States the apparent gain, at least, is large, since with a total debt of approximately $20,000, 000,000 we now see the prospect of transferring the burden for over $10,- 000,000,000—that is, more than half— to the shouldexs of our debtors, where as until the British began payment we were carrwng the loan ourselves.

But each vear the increase in for- eign payments will continue, untfl, 10 vears hence—assuming French and Italian agreements come this year— the whole of the foreign debt will be carried by an annual payment of 31z per cent interest, while the prin- cipal will be extinguished through payments of 1 per cent per annum. The Belgium agreement is likely to be assail.d ia Brussels and we are bound to be severely criticized al us does clear the air and open the way for finul adjustment of an issue which has made more hard feelings than any other post-war circumstance, hardly excluding the Ruhr.

LONDON, August 22—Eritain's capital may have been the largest city in the world last month and may be again in September, but just now the resident population of London is a million or more below normal. Al the leisure classes have abandoned the city now that the social season has ended, and the middle classes have crowded every outgoing train for more than a week, for August is their great holiday season. It is the ouly period when almost every mid- dle class and, for that matter, lower class school shuts its doors and par- ents usually arrange holidays to suit the convenience of their children. Wealthier vacatlonists have gone to the Scottish moors, grouse shooting, or to the Lido, Deauville or such continental resorts, while the middle classes have scattered everywhere. Scotch and Irish Londoners have gone “back home,” hundreds of thou- sands of others have filled the hotels of resorts that circle the shores of almost this entire {sland and vast swarnis of others have turned near- by Belgian and French coastal re- sorts almost into a part of little England itself. The streets of London consequently are filled with people obviously not Londoners. Provincials predominate, for somehow they like to holiday in London as much as Londoners like to spend their vacations in the prov- inces. Next in number to the provin- cials are Americans, the transatlantic tourist tide now having reached its crest. Of Indians there are many and of continentals, too, while Japanese during other months of the year. Gave Name to Province. Brittainy, in France, is supposed to have received its name from those Britons who were expelled from Eng- land and took refuge there between the fifth and sixth centuries. Before that time the country was named STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., 90 AUGUST 23, SMITHSON, BRITON, GAVE INSTITUTION Money for Research First Donated Royal Academy, Then Withdrawn. The thousands of daily visitors to the Smithsonian Institution last Mon- day probably were unaware that day marked its seventy-ninth birthday. It is almost certain that few in the throng realized that the vast build ings that make up the institution is a monument to a man who never s the United States, had no friend or correspondent in this coun- { | one who try—an alien. To add to the puzzle is the fuct that | the money that made Smithsonian Institution possible in Washington was at one time left to the Royal| Academy for the erection of a similar institution in London and but for the rejection of a scientific paper the Smithsonian Institution would proba- bly be a British organization. For James Smithsonian was a Briton, al though he foresook England when he wus graduated from Oxford with high honors. So far as known he never set his foot on his native land again. He | died in Paris, was buried in Geneva and later his body was brought to America and reposes in the mauso leum in the institution that bears his name. Son of a Duke. Sniithson Is the family name of one of the Dukes of Northumberland and was not used by the donor of Smith- sonfan Institution until he had left Oxford and the then Duke of North umiberland had died. For Smithson according to papers found in his e fects after his death, was the on of Hugh Smithson, who later became Duke of Northumberland through his marriage with Lady Elizabeth Sey mour. ~These roles showed that the vouth was the son of Hugh Smithson and Elizabeth Macie, the latter a sec ond cousin of the woman who married James’ father On the books of Pembroke College, Oxford, the boy was enrolled James Louis Macie and he retained that name throughout his college duys. His beclouded birth apparently cut deeply, so much so that he felt he could no longer reside in Englund when he had reached his majority Having declded to enter upon the life of a scientist. he left Londc e ve he wuei graduated und made Lis head quarters in Parls. although -h of his life was passed on the continent He, however, kept in touch with British scientists throughout _the Royal Academy, of which he wis a member. He was a friend of Watts, and an intimate of Thorwaldsen. His many achievements in the scientific world are recorded in Brituin. He spectalized in seeking the hidden val- ues of flowers and vegetables. He carried & portable laboratory, one of the first secn on the continent, and one of his earliest.achievements was recalled when the news of his death reached London Dr. Wollaston then was the peer of all in the making analysis of small quantities, and may have been that Smithson h aimed to surpass him. At any the report read in Londc the time of his death told of how Smithson on his travels had come upon a woman in tears. “Catching one of the tear- drops in a crystal vessel” says the report, “he analyzed it and found it contained what was then called mico cosmic salt, with muriate of soda and three more saline substances,” cientists at once ranked him next to Wollaston regarded of it Distant to Women. His beclouded birth rendered Smi son, who was of 4 most sensitive ture, distant to women. He enter tained scientists in his Paris home, but never entered society. He had u | huge painting of the Duke of | Northumberland in_his Paris home. | his carriage_and plate carried the arms of the Northumberlands and the fact that he was permitted to do so was taken to indieate that the rela- tives of his father were on good terms with Smithson. Whether the money which enabled Smithson to lead th life of a gentleman came from the Northumberlands or the Macies is not known. He was always in funds and | free spender. Twice his mother is mentioned in the papers and in records of Smith son’s life. The first place is where in a moment of bitterness he de- clared: “The best blood of England flows in my veins. On my father's side T am a Northumberland. On my mother's side I am related to~kings, but it avails me not. My name shall live when the titles of the North- umberlands and the Percys are for- gotten.” Again in the opening of his will he says, “I, James Smithson, son of the Duke of Northumberland and Elizabeth Macie, heiress of the Hungerfords of Stridely and niece of Charles, the Proud, Duke of Somer- set, etc.” Gets Fortune From Her. A half brother, who also bore the bar sinister. was Col. Henry Louis Dickinson of the 84th Regiment. He was on good terms with Smithson, so much so that when Dickinson died he left his fortune to Smithson. Where Dickinson got his money was not known, but as he was on intimate terms with the nobility it was not hard for the sages of that day to determine. Dickinson was the father of Henry Louls Hungerford, also of beclouded birth, but the boy was disinherited by Dickinson. Smithson, however, made up for that and when his will was opened it was found that all of Smithson's estate was left to voung Hungerford, his nephew. The second paragraph of the will, which had been changed to exclude the Royal Academy, read that inthe event of Hungerford’s death without issue the entire fortune was to pass to the “United States of America to found at Washington, under the name of the Smithsonian Institute, an in- stitution for the increase and diffu- slon of the knowledge of men.” Smithson died in 1829 and was bur- led in Genoa. His heir's death fol- lowed a short time later und after vears of litigation in the Brtiish courts the United States won its fight and the Smithson fortune of $508,000 was turned over to it. Whether the money originally came from the Northumberlands or the Hungerfords is not known, but at the time the amount was regarded as a vast for- tune and the fact that the Royal Academy had offended Smithson caused much comment in London. i | Hairless Mice Unique.

The banks maintain with moral and legal justification, that mund Stin- nes had not the right to do this; that at the last moment he removed from the reach of creditors propert 15,000,000 marks. Edmund rejected the banks' demand that the contract be cancelled, and declared that he had sold his stocks and the claim for 6,000,- 000 marks to Holland buyers, and that he retained only the stock of the an- tomobile factory. Shortly afterward, when this concern, like magy stronger concerns in Germany, ladked ready capital and could not even pay its workmen, he demanded as a matter of right, first that the state help him, EDUCATIONAL. gi capital. | worth | HOME PORTS CHECK.

The state would bhave made itself guilty of gross partisanship if it had favored a small concern which was neither socially nor economically im- portant. The banks decided that they | would grant credit only after inves- tigation into the status of the con cern and only if the influence of Ed- mund_Stinnes, whom they regard as unworthy of trust, were eliminated. Meanwhile Edmund, in order to consgle his employe$ had with the pose of a soclal Messiah, “made a present” to them of half his stock of 2,000,000 marks—and this despitc the fact that he knew that all the heads of German financial concerns deny his right to this property. He also knew that the sale or hypothecation of this stock would not bring enough even for one week's wages. And despite the furtber fact that he was even then negotiating the sale of his fac- tory and that the negotiations would be rendered futile by giving away half his holdings. The sensible workmen have not yet even discussed acceptance of the “present,” which has been so hymned by a part of the press. This peculiar dopor complains about the banks’ action and tries to make it appear that he is carrying on his father's battle. He moans "I didn't will this war.” He is every inch a Wilhelm 11, whose fall showed how quickly a rich inheritance can be dissipated. It was a fatal error of Edmund Stinnes that he continued dynastic business policies against the spirit of the times. (Copyright, 1925.)
