Politician Tell me Mi Economist, why Is it these European countries are making such a fuss just now about their debt payments to the Unit ed State**" Haven't they been paying ever since ’.he war" Economist No. in one sense they never have paid anything Politician How's that. The books show that they have paid about OOP.A** .o<k)., Economist Yes. but in effect the money has come from the United •States. Thete has been no transfer of wealth from east to west across the Atlantic. In fact. Europe owes Am erica more today than when the war ended Economist Yes. Until September. IRIS*, interest was paid ditectly out of fresh ctedits. Then when govern ment loans to Europe stopped, pay m* nts also stopped. Politician I didn't know there was a moratorium then. How long did it last ? Economist For Britain, until June. 1919; fin Italy, until November. 1925. and for France, until April 1926. Politician But then the debtors started paying Economist Yes; but indirectly the money came from private loans by Americans. Politician How could it? Those loans were not to the debtors but went cniefly to Germany, and not even to the German Government. Economist True. Yet the capitat thus suppled built up German indus try and filled the gap made by the German Government requirements for internal loans and taxes which went into rep.it at ions. These in turn went to the debtors or. under the Young plan, largely to the United States. Politician That seems a very roundabout process. Economist It was; but without the stimulus of American loans Germany could hardly have continued to pay reparations. When the break in 19*29 came and the flow of such wealth to Europe ceased, it soon became ap parent that the rest of the merry-go round the chain of reparations and debt payments must also stop. Politician Was that what forced the Hoover holiday? Economist Yes. For a year and a h ilt thete have been no payments, and by the Lausanne agreement the holiday has been made permanent and virtually complete except for the debts due the United States. Politician Thin “resumption" ol paynten’s on December 15 is really a •beginning, a new effort to transfei debt installments from Europe tc Aoierica ? Economist Yes. and without restat ing the other portions of the transfei merry-go-round. American loans ant German repatations. The Christiar Science Monitor. F.M> TIIK TRAGIC FOLLY! Soon or lat. the Government and the people of the I’nited States must be sensible about war debts and re parations. They may be sensible now. after great wieckage has been wrought by blind efforts to set the economic relations of nations into fantastically artificial molds. Or they' may be sensible later on. after the wreckage is complete. What is plain is that the facts of the case will not he denied The thing to do us to sweep thin ghastly mess out of doors, once and for all. It will not be easy to do -if amailbore statesmanship is to con tinue to rule us. The party records ■are against intelligent action. The congressional attitude has been against intelligent action. The popu lar mind has been miseducated in a holesaie measure for more than a ©ecade. In party conclaves, congressional sessions and popular gatherings, thinking h« been ruled by “patriots" •who apply o interna onal finance ,„ K » trade lb? U'ext'ii* of th' village note-shaver, and by “statesmen” who cower miserably at the bare sugges tico. of ‘-he taunt that they are out smarted and outbargained by for ei|-ncr-.‘ Ignorance of tie nature of world economics and gnawing fear among pur wretched little men in Ugh hav* caused us iong decade to turn our faces from the appeals of reason mnd enlightened self-ijftgrest Mr. ■ liocver’s statements about substitut ing specific trade advantages for money payments has been so vague as to be almost unintelligible, but at least these statements have implicitly recognized the exigencies of the hour and hav not confirmed old error. Mr. i Roosevelt's recognition that debts cannot be paid while tariff embar goes are maintained failed to proceed to the practical corollaries of the hour, but they added nothing tangible to the mountain of error that had been accumulated. It is possible now for these two men to come out squarely before the American people with the whole truth and to shake the people, and their representatives. • nto the beginners of good sense. After all. the thing is very simple. The moment you compel a nation to deliver a prescribed sum annually to another nation you compel the first nation to seek by all manner" of means to create a balance of trade abroad from which the payment may be made It is not a natural effort of trade which may be mutually beneficial. It is an unnatural and artificial effort which, under the most favorable cir cumstances. may play havoc with nor mal trade and all interested therein. Make that artificiality well-nigh uni versal with Germany struggling to get a balance to pay France and Eng land and Italy and other nations, and with all these nations struggling to get a balance to pay the United ' States. Then go to your next step. It is the maddened building of tariff walls to . guard against the pushing in of arti ficially ordered trade from all the struggling nations.. It is all simple enough, if people will stop using the thinking mu | chinery of the village note-lshaver. shrilly insisting that debts are debts. Why not tell the people the truth? Why not tell the people that repara tions and war debts are a clot in the stream of commerce? Why not. Mr. Hoover and Mr. Roosevelt, make an end once and for all to the tragic folly? -Baltimore Sun. igg JAMES "'ASWELII 1 Ni‘» Yu;k.
