DEBTS DISPUTE !
TAKES SLIGHT
BETTER TURN
Folly Shows Sigrts of Giv
ing Away to Reason on
. Both Sides.
BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS
Seripps-Howard Foreign Editor
WASHINGTON, Dec. 17—The
war debts situation has taken a
slight turn for the better.
Folly today showed signs of giving
way to reason, as officials on both
sides of the Atlantic found them
selves arriving, one by one,, up
against the stone wall of incon
trovertible facts. Amongst these
facts are:
1. Reprisals over defaults would
cut both ways.
2. Collection in full is impossible.
3. Cancellation in Toto is out of
the question.
4. Calling names will get neither
side anywhere.
5. To permit the present stale
mate to continue would embitter in
ternational relations, intensify the
depression, postpone recovery and
arouse popular passions to the
point where anything could happen.
Reprisals Would Be Costly
Reprisals against France for de
faulting on her $19,000,000 payment
Tuesday, wolud not only bring re
taliation, some of our fire-eaters
have been told, but if that line is
adopted, France would hold the
whip hand.
France buys more goods in the
United States in normal times than
in any other country, including
Great Britain.
In the three years prior to the
world economic collapse, France
bought an average of about $270,-
000,000 worth of American com
modities annually, while we pur
chased from France only some $140,-
000,000 worth.
Should President Herbert Hoover,
therefore, take a leaf out of Presi
dent Jackson’s notebook of 100
yars ago, and ask congress to shut
out French commerce, France could
take almost $2 from us for every
$1 we could take from her.
Do Away With Passports
Senator Kenneth McKellar’s reso
lution calling for a $5,000 fee for
passports to Americans bound for
defaulting countries, in the first
place, would not work.
If France desired American tour
ists, she simply could do away with
passports. It largely is a tax propo
sition, anyway, and she could levy
whatever charges she desired at her
own frontier.
In the second place, granted the
$5,000 fee would work, France is in
position to tax between 25,000 and
30,000 Americans, now living in
Paris, out of existence. This she
could do, merely by raising the pres
ent nominal charge for “permits de
sejours,” or right of residence.
Settlement Is Sought
To close American ports to French
shipping—as “Old Hickory” advo
cated a century ago—would hurt
Americans as badly as it would the
French,
Besides, it is admitted, such solu
tion entirely is out of the question.
Such a thing easily could lead to
war, and the world requires a con
structive not a destructive, an
swer.
Accordingly, the writer das in
formed today, conversations are
under way in Washington, Paris and
London looking towards a settle
ment.
Little can be done until anew
government is formed at Paris, but
French fears are increasing that
France will find herself isolated if
she persists in her present course.
CHOIR OF 60 TO SING
“Messiah” Will Be Presented at
First Presbyterian Church.
Adult choir of sixty voices will
sing the Christmas section of the
“Messiah” at 7:30 Sunday evening
at the First Presbyterian church,
with George F. Holler as direc
tor.

Knight, soprano; Miss Gertrude
West, contralto; Vernon Roth,

AUTHOR'S NOTE—These answers are given from the scientific point ot
view. Not ail moral questions can be answered with absolute scientific ac
curacy, but no decision as to what is right conduct or sound morals is porsible
without science. Science puts the rights of organized society above the rights
of individuals.

ous and in good taste it is the
finest thing in courtship and
lays the right natural founda
tion of mutual trust, for that
“sweet fulfillment of the flesh”
and sweeter fulfillment of the
spirit—the union of two lives
in the creation of anew life.
Yes.

why is not fully understood.
Dr. Wiffgam will be glad to answer questions dealing with problems of

COMPROMISE IS
URGED TO CUT
VETERANS' AID
10 Per Cent Slash in All
Pension, Compensation
Checks Proposed.
BY RUTH FINNEY
Times Staff Writer
WASHINGTON. Dec. 17—A com
promise cut in veterans’ appropria
tions, effecting a temporary saving
without changing existing laws, Is
being discussed by members of con
gress as a way out of the dilemma
presented by conflicting demands
for economy, and for still larger
benefits, each sponsoted by consid
erable portions of the population.
I The plan calls for 10 per cent
reduction in all checks mailed out
by the government for pensions, dis
ability compensation and allowances,
and death compensation.
It would mean a saving of approx
imately $54,500,000 if the law’s af
fecting payments are unchanged, the
same amount President Herbert
Heover recommended saving by an
11 per cent cut In the pay of all fed
eral employes.
Ignore Pay Cut Plan
Congress has ignored the pay cut
plan so far, and probably will con
tinue to do so.
The house has passed one of the
annual supply bills without includ
ing it, and the senate economy com
mittee now is discussing whether
or not it shall make recommenda
on the subject.
However, if pension and com
pensation checks are cut instead.
Mr. Hoover’s recommendation that
$127,000,000 be trimmed from vet
erans’ benefits by changes in exist
ing law- probably would not be
adopted, and the budget he pre
sented would be unbalanced by that
additional amount.
The special joint committee on
veterans’ administration has gone
about its task of finding ways to cut
the billion-doliar veteran budget
reluctantly, and already has in
dicated it may spread its investiga
tion over months.
It is possible it will decide to
recommend the small temporary
cut, in order that its investigation
may be carried on for an indefinite
period.
Hoover Urges Reductions
Such action probably would be
accepted by veterans with more grace
than amendments to the law, just
as the American Federation of La
bor worked for furloughs for federal
employes rather than alteration of
the basic pay scale.
The budget Mr. Hoover presented
to congress lacked $307,192,187 of
balancing. Jf his savings in the vet
erans’ bureau are adopted the
shortage will amount to more than
$434,000,000.
Brigadier-General Frank Hines,
director of the veterans' adminis
tration, has recommended perma
nent reduction of veterans’ benefits
by about $85,000,000. A saving half
as great was refused by each house
of congress last year.
The problem of balancing the
budget has received little attention
in congress so far, although two
weeks of the brief session have
gone.
