A RECORD AUT0M01JILK YEAH.
Automobile production is by no means an infallible in
dex to trade conditions, for the makers are human and
optimistic to boot. Dut the efforts of the producing com
panies are stimulated or diminished by anticipations based
on thorough-going study of .basic trends, and they may,
therefore, be regarded as reflecting about the best opinion
iivailablc. t.
In the first six months ,of 1926 the American motor
industry set a new high record for output with 2,176,281
. passenger cars and 272,903 trucks, and although June and
July have shown the expected recession from peak produc
tion the shrinkage is less conspicuous than that of a
year ago.
In recent years production from January to July has
approximated 53 per cent or the 12 months' total and that
from July to December 47 per cent. If 1926 proves a nor
mal year, this country will produce more than 4,600,000
ears and trucks before December 31, and present business
conditions. .ud crop prospers "''"UUi'l&J... pL'iUiml'WCi

The industry as a whole was never in better shape fi
nancially. A record season seems 'assured. Its influence
upon other industries which supply raw materials and
parts, fuel and tires, will go fur to assure many months of
that reasonable prosperity which is the best kind of all.
, NO CANCELLATION.
Secretary Mellon's letter in defense of the government's
position in regard to debt cancellation will go far to clarify
the situation both in this country and abroad. Ho argues
against cancellation on broad grounds, and although tho
same statement might, perhaps, have soi-vcd a more useful
purpose had it been issued months or even years ago, it is
still timely.
The secretary points out that the European countries
which have obligated themselves to make payments on these
loans have been asked for much less interest than the
United States is paying on the same money to its own citi
zens; that the voluminous Wilson correspondence which
-preceded the advance of money makes plain that these
loans were not regarded as gifts or designed as such; that
much of the money was paid over after the signing of the
armistice and was borrowed to meet domestic rather than
military needs. He is quoted partially in the New York
Times as follows:
H is clear that when the advances wore made to
our allies they knew and we knew thev were loans
not gifts. . . .It must bo remembered that Eng
land borrowed a largo portion of its debt to us
Jor purely commercial as distinguished from war
purposes to meet its commercial obligations matur
ing m America, to furnish India with silver, to buy
food to be resold to its civilian population, and to
maintain exchange. Our loans to England were
not so much to provide war supplies as to furnish
ster ing fur homo and foreign needs and to save
England Irom borrowing from its own people. .
Wo must collect through taxation from (un
people H our debtoi-s do not pay to us what they
can. . . Neither generally from the people, the
press, nor at all from the chosen representatives of
the people in congivss has come this demand (for I
cancelation). . . . Hut I feel that a recogni
tion ol their external obligations bv the European
nations and an 1 1 n,l,.i t L-i,,.,,.,i,'. ,i
... . , . .itiei.i hi liu-t'l llll'lll
within their capacity as each country has done
is a moral force of great service to permanent pros
pority m the world. . . . i).,, as tle financial
sky now appears, I believe Europe is today closer
to a permanent sound solution of its economic trou
bles than at any time since the war. ... 1 do
not despair of Europe.
There must, of course, always bo those who for senti
mental or other reasons will hold that cancellation would
have been not only graceful but also the proper policy, but
the time for considering such action is passed. Further
i.gitation to this end can only serve to postpone some kind
of settlement and in view of the political crisis in France,
and conditions in half ; dozen other countries, a settlement
of terms of repayment is really more important than the
erms themselves. We have already been generous fur
more generous than wo could expect European countries
lo bo under sinu'lar circumstances and i recognition of
their remaining obligation to ua is long past duo,
