For months and months, though they have known to the con
trary, the Republicans have permitted the impression to gain cur
rency that the Wilson administration had had an understanding with
the Allied nations that their indebtedness to the United States would
be cancelled. This was denied time and again from Democratic
sources, but never by the Republicans, though many of their senators
possessed facts that proved the charges unqualified falsehoods.
It is true that Great Britain had suggested cancellation to Presi
dent Wilson, but in his replies to the suggestions he turned the prop
osition down flat. The letters containing his refusal were turned
over at the time to the Republican foreign relations committee, as
were also letters written by Secretary Houston to English authori
ties on the same subject, but they were put on "secret hie" and kept
there. It would not do for the country to know what Wilson had
done. It would disturb the Republican program, especially before
election, when so much talk was made that Wilson was a better '

However, whether the Republican senators became ashamed of
their action or not, they have finally done what they should have
done months ago made the letters public by reading them openly
in the senate, and on motion of Senator Lodge ordered them printed
in the Congressional Record.
The letters are rather lengthy, covering a multitude of circum- Other sources
stances, but the essential facts are contained in the following para- J potaj
grapns:
(From Secretary Houston to the English secretary of the exche
quer) As to the general cancellation of intergovernmental war debts
suggested by you, you will, 1 am sure, desire that I present my views no
less frankly than you have presented yours. Any proposal or movement
of such character would, I am confident, serve no useful purpose. On
the contrary, it would, I fear, mislead the people of the debtor countries
as to the justice and efficacy of such a plan and arouse hopes, the dis
appointment of which could only have a harmful effect. I feel certain
that neither the American people nor our congress, whose action on
such a question would be required, is prepared to look with favor upon
such a proposal.

FOR SALE
(From President Wilson's reply to the prime minister of Great Brit
ain) The secretary of the treasury is authorized by United States law
to arrange for the conversion of the demand obligations of the British
government into its obligations having a fixed date of maturity, in ac
cordance with the agreement of the British government to make such
exchange on demand contained in its existing obligations. In connection
with such exchange the secretary of the treasury has authority to ar
range for the postponement of interest payments. No power has been
given by the congress to anyone to exchange, remit, or cancel any part
of the indebtedness of the Allied governments to the United States
represented by their respective demand obligations. It would require
congressional authority to authorize any such dealing with the demand
obligations, and, as stated in the letter of November 18, 1919, from Mr.
Rathbone to Mr. lilackett, of the British treasury, the congress has the
same authority to authorize any disposition of obligations of the Brit
ish government held by the United States, whether represented by de
mand obligations or by obligations having a fixed date of maturity. It is
highly improbable that either the congress or popular opinion in this
country will ever permit a cancellation of any part of the debt of the
British government to the United States in order to induce the British
government to remit, in whole or in part, the debt to Great Britain of
France or any other of the Allied governments or that it would consent
to a cancellation or reduction in the debts of any of the Allied govern
ments as an inducement toward a practical settlement of the reparation
claims. As a matter of fact, such a settlement, in our judgment, would
in itself increase the ultimate financial strength of the Allies.
Any arrangements the British government may make with regard to
the debt owed to it by France or by the other Allied governments should
be made in the light of the position now and heretofore taken by the
United States, and the United States in making any arrangements with
other Allied governments regarding their indebtedness to the United
States (and none are now contemplated beyond the funding of indebt
edness and the postponement of payment of interest) will do so with the
confident expectation of the payment in due course of the debt owed the
United States by Great Britain.

Places and Distances From
THE HENRY FORD WAY
The Ford Motor company in a statement filed with the Massa
chusetts commissioner of corporations, says the New York World, re
ports total assets of $345,1-40,557 on April 30th, compared with $306,
t;95,109 a year ago. Profits and loss surplus increased from $165,-
679,132 to $182,877,696, and cash and debts receivable from $62,499,
027 to $86,965,165.
This is a curiously prosperous showing for a corporation to make
in a year of business depression. How was it done? The Detroit
manufacturer, as is well known, is a dreamer and a visionary, but
there is nothing very visionary about a $38,000,000 gain in assets in
a bad year.
Perhaps Henry Ford has a secret method unknown to other cor
poration heads, but it would appear on its face to be only the secret
of a commonsense' application of business principles. He was one of
the first automobile manufacturers to cut prices and he made the
best of the depression and overcame it. No doubt a manufacturer
who can make a profit out of adversity possesses genius.
But the example is there for any one to emulate. The way to re
adjust business to the new conditions is to readjust it and have the
thing over. That is the only magic needed.

Complaint is made by the manager of a near-by resort that he
was refused permission to put up a sign-board at the free camping
grounds indicating the character of his wares and the location of
his place of business. Reserving comment on the alleged refusal,
would it not be a good idea for the said manager to announce to the
public what he has through the local papers.
