Germany Must Pay
Thiaucourt Frum? knows how to
make Germany pay for the destruction
she cuu.sed during the World War. and
every German will be held to strict ac
countability for the repair of this dam
age. Premier ltayumnd I'oincuire told
the assembled population of Thiau
court, which gathered to dedicate a
monument to soldiers of this communi
ty who fell in the great struggle. The
ceremony had a double meaning in that
the monument was designed to honor
the memory of scores ef civilians whu
died as a result of occupation of Uie
town by German troop.

The utterances of Vice President
Coolidge In the northwestern part of
the country are interesting and suif
irestive at this time. He went to
Oregon t participate In the unveiling
f a statue erected to the memory of
Theodore Roosevelt, In one of the
parks of Portland. In the coure of
remarks he said that strikes were a
siirn of prosperity, that they nevr
rame when times were had, as the
men then always clung; to their job.
There Is some enrourairement in this,
to say the least, even tho it may not
he entirely true. We need to see the
bright side of situation that is
Irritating and jret what comfort we
can from It Strikes, however, d
not add to the prosperity of a country
as they cause great losses which
some one has to bear and generally
those who least deserve it.
For a long time the U. S. has been
seeking to bring about some un
derstanding with Germany with re
lation to the manv claim which -
cumulated during the war. American
property In Germany was confiscated,
ships with their cargo were sunk,
victims of the Lusitania had their
cause taken up by relatives or
friends. Recently Germany has
agreed to the appointment of a com
mission for this purpose. It ia to be
composed of three, one appointed by
each nation and the other selected
by them from some neutral nation.
Germany has waved the latter re
quirement and allows the third to be
selected from the U. S. This is be
ing quoted as an evidence of the great
confidence reposed in American jus
tice and fairness. ,

j The League of Nations will meet
'. in Geneva on September 4th. It is
, believed that some important mat
ters will come before the Assembly.
It is known that Hungary expecta
to ask for admission to the League.
The South American states have sev
eral matters to present. They will
ask for the right to establish an
American League at the same time
that they retain their place in that of
Europe. They are likely also to
champion the cause of Mexico and
her admission to tho League. It is
not improbable that a representative
may be made president of the as
sembly. A good many visitors will
attend this meeting to watch the pro
ceedings. Among others, the Amer
ican former candidate for the presi
dency, Mr. Cox, will be an observer
and will doubtless have impo-tant in
formation to give.
! It is reported that Poland has b
gun to increase her army. It is sup
posed that this is due to the activity
of the army of the Russian Soviet
German officers are reorganizing the
. Russian army as they formerly did
I the Turkish. The size of the division
being increased to correspond with
that of the German army. Attempts
are also being made to secure am
munition probably in the U. S. Po
land has thus far been able to hold
her own in conflicts that previously
took place and had to be held bacV
from aggressive warfare. The great
Polish musician, Paderewsky, unable
to bring about harmony in his coun
try, gave up the task and has re
turned to his musical career.
Not long ag France sent to the U.
S. a representative to discuss finan
cial affairs. The mission of this mar,
Parmentier, by name, does not sem
to have fared well, or at least, not
to the satisfaction of France, and ho
has returned for Instruction. It
seems that France expected him to
make the U. S. understand that sh
could not pay her obligations until
Germany paid hers. The United
States understood that he came to
negotiate a settlement or arrange
ment of some kind. This misunder
standing is responsible for the lark
of accomplishments. The U. S. ra
not so much concerned with imme

of the debt and the funding of it at
