TF agg _Dalty, wy. Zhe Stes Puntioning. Cn Monadnock Danadian Pacific bile Do You Want to Keep U. S. Out of War? VERY day conditions in Europe are growing worse. Nations great and small are totter- ing, unable to pay expenses. Suffering among the peoples is in- creasing. Famine threatens here and there. Unemployment spreads. A sort of suicidal desperation — a don’t-care- what-happens mood—has settled down over half the world. Say “Boo!” and a new world war which, by comparison, would bleach the red horror of the last one, might start. And if such a blaze begins it will sweep everything before it—us along with the rest. Some of us honestly think we could “keep out.” Impos- sible! Yet we stand around and do nothing to stop it. HEY say the time to convert a hardened sinner is right after he turns the corner of a danger- ous illness, but while he still is in fear of a relapse. One of these days, if we are luéky, the present crisis in Europe may ease off a bit. Sobered over its narrow escape, the world may then be in the moment’s mood for salvation. Then will be the time for the United States to be ready with a plan to offer as a basis of world sanity—political, financial, economic. Our government—congress, the president, the state department—confess they have no plan; no icy. oe one is offered by The Star. It is not repre- sented to be perfect. But it does contain the "nucleus of an idea, perhaps a basis to work from . . . THE PLAN The United States must assume the leader- ship. At the first ne opening President Har- ding should call a conference of the leading world powers. The program at this conference should be in two sections: I. Economic problems; reparations; war. debts. Il. Limitation of armament: On land; on sea. Instantly when the conference is called to e order America’s spokesman should lay before assembly some specific plan of world rehabili- jon. This might follow somewhat these lines: . * . SECTION 1. A general moratorium on reparations and war debts so that no payments of principal or interest need be paid for from three to five years. B Full American participation in a reparations ’ commission which, freed of politicians and soldiers and guided by economic experts, should fix the amount Germany CAN pay—not what she OUGHT to pay. Germany should know that until this amount . is paid in full, France, under allied super- vision, will remain on the left bank of the Rhine D An international loan to Germany—part to go 'e to France to help tide her over the next few _ years, the balance to be used to stabilize Germany’s finances. Wilful default on the part of Germany to be met by sanctions as provided for under the treaty of Versailles. The United States and Great Britain to agree « to aid France in tne event Germany attacked her without provocation. Germany would never _ attack France WITHOUT PROVOCATION as long ~as such an agreement stood. Allied debts to the United States to be gotten ‘« into understandable form pending the general moratorium, and then adjusted satisfactorily between the nations concerned. * * * SECTION II. A The question of armaments might now be » tackled. Europe could, should and must de- mobilize most of her troops, and Italy and France must conform to the terms of the Washington naval agreements. as The great powers to agree on narrow limits for the number, tonnage and armament of submarines and other navai auxiliaries and tackle other problems not settled at the Washington conference. Then the world, solvent, with useful tools in hand instead of weapons, could set about earning its bread in the sweat of its brow and raise crops in- stead of hell.

Morris in Wednesday's Star, re garding inte spirit ity, I think she has the issue somewhat muddled. Her idea seems to be that the intellectually superior person is necessarily, alse, spirit ually superior. Rather, that they are one and the same faculty, That t true People of very ordinary intelli gence are sometimes moral. their reason being that they know or feel that thelr attitude is right Their mental or Intellectual faculties have not developed to their spiritual un they but follow the in their strongest etuality and sidment.
