Isaiah 43:2. THE SMALL COLLEGE Announcement that Haverford College is preparing to celebrate its centenary by drawing up a model program; for dmall American colleges reminds one that the nation's debt to its small colleges is generally underestimated. Ordinarily, when the "American college" is mentioned, one thinks of the large, famous, and wealthy institutions. There are many of these, and they have done fine work. Such great eastern schools as Yale, Harvard, Princeton and Dartmouth; the huge state universities of the middle west, like Michigan, Ohio, Minnesota, and Wisconsin; the great metropolitan institutions like Columbia and Chicago; the west coast giants, like Leland, Stanford and California these are the places that come to mind. But the big ones are not the only ones ; back of them lies scores of colleges, such as Haverford, small in plant and en rollment, sometimes rather pinched for money, sharing none of the headlines, and offering none of the glorified country club attributes that some of the socially impeccable univer sities hold out to the sons of rich men but doing an excellent job, year in and year out, in the training of future American leaders. Indeed, the small college often seems the most hopeful feature of the whole field of higher education. The small college seldom has any famous names on its faculty roster. Its degrees do not carry the prestige of degrees from Harvard and Princeton. Sometimes it is not even heard of outside of its own state. But human institu tions are judged chiefly W the fruits they produce V and the small college; judged in this way, deserves a high rating. All over the country you will find its graduates. Some of them occupy high positions ; some of them, are struggling along in modest circumstances, never expecting either riches 01' fame, trying their, best to do the job at hand in an ac ceptable manner. But no tmatter what their circumstances, these men and women are making a distinct and important contribution to American culture. They represent a steadily growing class that is interested in something beyond the needs of the. moment and the demands of the office or shop. They are the mainstays, in many localities, of the widening audience for good books, good music, and intelligent discussion of current issues. For these people went to college primarily to get educa tion. Perhaps they are not, on the average, as urbane and polished as graduates of the bigger universities. Often they are not as prosperous. But their colleges gave them sonic thing besides the ability to feel at case in evening dress. ONLY ONE SOLUTION Because of the let-George-do-it attitude taken by all of the conferees, the international wheat conferences at Paris and Rome accomplished practically nothing. And for the same reason it is expected that little benefit will result from the London conference to be held soon. All of the wheat-growing countries agree as to the cause and the cure (over-production, and curtailment of acreage) but each wants the other to do the curUiiling. Finding the medicine not to their taste ; they would have the others take the full dose but divide the cure with them. Endland, Trance, and IUily take the position that since their output is inadequate for domestic demands and they export no wheat, they should not be called upon to reduce their acreage. Russia refuses to revoke her policy of forcing her wheat surplus upon unwilling markets regardless of price. The United States has been unable to persuade its wheat growers to measure their output by the world's needs, while Argentina and India have persisted in a policy of in creasing their acreage as rapidly as possible. The position of the countries having no surplus wheat is well taken. That of Russia is unwarranted, and the in dividual glowers in the surplus countries have the option of producing less or producing at a loss.

How to Break the ImpoK.se Without or ivltli a Silver Lining Judging by the opinions Invariably expressed by all our leading writers on economics and business and by a thousand editors, by the actions and expressions In congress ana Dy tne administration, the almost universal conclusion is that the only way out of our economic crisis Is to adjust ourselves to prevailing conditions the best we can, without any special ef fort toward anything reconstructive In any direction, leaving It as if def initely granted that practically noth ing can be done In the way ol a ai rected. or scientific nature to create a greater and wider market and con suming ability, either at home or abroad: that we must sit down and walV for the "cycle" to gradually swing to an upward move. While such opinions are not in keeping with our scientific age of the 20th century, we will accept it as a premise for a solution, - and suggest the only possible way to break the lmpaBse, accordingly. It must be taken for granted that tho reader Is familiar with the fact that our thirty million farm popula tion., .is In such Impoverished condi tion that it will be conservative to state that they do not now possess one-half of their normal buying power, and that their purchases are limited, therefor, to mero necessities. Other conditions In general being as thev are. the only way In which they can buy more goods would obviously be by getting more goods for the samo money. For Illustration: If the general level of merchandise were lowered one-third in price, that mueh additional would be consumed and thus permit a relative increase in production and employment: thus again, tho additionally employed woaid Increase consumption, adding still more to employment and prob ably creating a greater demand for farm products, which should Improve the farmer's. Income to some extent: this should react again to the cities, continuing to improve conditions. However, the above presupposes firsti: that all manufacturers reduce their capital charge to the bone; sec ond, to sell their goods very near cost in order to got on a par with the farmers, who are not receiving cost for theirs; further, that hours must be shortened In order to obtain gen ernl nmnlovment. maintaining the current wage per hour as nearly as possible, so as not to reduce the ag gregate buying power of the Industrial and commercial employees, but that sudt.be gradually Increased as the consumption Increases and a set of reactions are in force. It should bo superfluous here to set' up a lot of figures and data to prove that merchandise, on the aver ago. Is selling away out of line with hnlfr of the population's ability to consume, and It follows that the two must meet In order to make move ment possible. Wo know of numer ous commodities still carrying enor mous profits to the manuiociureio. wiilrh mimt come down or be dead- walls preventing tho difficult matter of breaking the commercial Impasse. -The above is oasea on tne. pieiwu n,,, moat, nnceot the status quo as concerns our foreign markets, and that wo oro tncreior compencu m adjust Industries accordingly. There can bo no otlien way out of .our dl lomma, as equilibrium must be at tained In sonio way as io suui and consumers In all classes, inis brings us back to tho fact that first of all, in Importance, Is to inc mo farm population to a par wiin mo aggregate, so that all will balance, otherwise It will bo hopeless. "Of course thoro Ib another way, based on entirely different economic pollcleB that may come Into full force If tho abovo program Is not carried out throughout our entire Industrial fabric.

It Is Incredible to believe that tho Bobsons. Forbes, scroggs, and Cftoses should be utterly Ignorant cf their findings, ond It Is tneretor Inexnllroble why these "accepted authorities" failed to blimen It to the world In a hundred periodicals and Uio whole press In general. The outstanding conclusion was. that the unprecedented centralization of t'old ond the treat lass In the value of silver were mostly responsible. It therefore follows that to attain tne opposite would be the remedy: de- centrollre the gold and ennancc im value of silver, in regard to tho for mer, there Is no feasible solution, as gold Is entirely too Inadequate to terve one-fourth of tho world's popu lation, and Just now tho United states and France together possess 7 out of the total 11 billion dollars worth of gold In existence, so that even the Hank of England could not function properly, except for having 1V4 billion of accomodation deposits from Franco. All the greatest finan cial experts In the world have failed to find a solution for the dilemma ot gold, to moke It answer one-half the demand for It as a world money. Therefore, the question Is how to LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER, lift GRANDE. ORE. rZ enhance the value of sliver and stabi lize it, to which the answer is simple and easy. We, the great Creditor Na tion of the world, preeminent-. In commerce and financial power, alone can reinstate silver to Its age-Jong position as a -basic money for the world. It would be unpardonable to call for International conferences be fore taking action. Remember. Eng land and Germany did not consult us when they demonetized and destroyed silver as a basic money of the world in 1872. For the best of business and scientific reasons we should remone. tlze sliver on the same basis used by Isaac Newton in 1813, vis: on the rela' live quantity of gold and silver in existence available for money at the time, which then was found to be 1614 to 1, while now according to ailf8lstant secretary, W. J. Church, of La available data, would be about 10 to 1 We should bear In mind that about 70 per cent of all the silver in the world is now in Asia, of which China la variously estimated to have from 3 to 4 billion ounces. India still has an equal amount, mostlv In the form of ornaments and trinkets. Thero is very little silver left in Europe. In the United States and Canada there are about one billion ounces, and a considerable amount Is in Mexico, South America and parts of Africa. As a material factor in our considera tion, we must remember that most of the future production of silver will De irom worth America. Let us go West, across the Pacific to China, with her 460 million people. ucr luur ini.uun square miies oi terri tory. She lacks railroads, hinhwava. canals, dikes, irrigation works, schools anu, incidentally, the surplus of ev erything we produce. Her approxi mate 3 billion ounces of silver are now worth only about one billion dollars. "With the stroke of a pen" and without any cost to us, we can Instantly make her silver worth 7 billion dollars, thus increasing her metal money wealth over six billion. and her purchasing power of our goods nearly seven times. The act of remonetlzlng silver as a basic money at a ratio with gold as suggested above, and commensu rate with the great objectiye, would, in effect, sweep the whole world, and lift it out of the economic depression, political unrest, revolutions, and de spair, as if by magic, and restore pros perity, peace, and happiness. In connection with the political method suggested, our relative posit ion among the nations of tho world leaves us tho indisputable master of the whole situation. Consequently, all we have to do is to declare that we, the United States of America, enact and remonetize silver as a basic money interchangeable with gold at the ratio of ten to one. Cable this message to every nation and they will embrace our action with open arms, concur, accept and ratify promptly, making bl-metallsm again a fact in the world; the two metals supple menting one another, creating a fair , sufficiency and a far greater stability than . the sinele standard ever achieved. i Remonetlzatlon consumatcd, the i immeaiate direct results, coupled I with the psychological, would be uni versal and would not only helo us to a seven times better market in China, but to greatly Improve markets every where, particularly in Mexico and South America where a gesture such as tnis is needed to restore tho wan ing friendship of those peonies. The stimulation to our mining industry alone would be very great. supplementing all the above, wo should make the Chinese government noerai loans; appoint a commission of real men to go to China to give inenaiy co-operation, una advise in carrying out a great constructive pro gram for the great republic; the money to be spent at the approval of the commission.. This, in order to as sist her to a speedy dehablUtntlon and advancement, sO-tlat liv tan years time, China may have Increased her standard of living for the maases of her population a .thousand per cent. That they will bo ablo to pur chase great quantities of our radios, automobiles and all manufactured goods, and furnish real farm relief by buying the farmer's wheat, with the possibility of their purchases reach ing five billion dollars worth of our products annually. Thus our problem of full time and general employment with machine-mass production would be largely solved for a long time into tho future, as would the football of politicians, the farm problem, and many others. Thus we see the "SILVER. LINING" in a new and happy era for humanity. KARL J.
