The leader of this air arfrtoda is .General Italo Balbo, intrepid and energetic leader of the Italian air 'fleets,' and considered by many the strongest figure next to Mussolini in Facist circles.

' Grand Total ?2,627",580,891 $11,598,501,458 It will be noticed, of the total indebtedness that around eighty per cent of it was loaned to Great Britain, France and Italy. The English have paid approximately one-third of their debt, the French less than one-eighth and Italy less than one-twentieth of what is received. While American popular sentiment is opposed to cancellation of these debts, 1 it is unlikely that all of them will ever be paid. In thinking about these debts, it should be borne in mind that the greater part of them represents money loaned and advanced after the actual fighting had ended. They were not loaned to keep Germany from winning the war, as some of our debtors would seek to have us believe. France, for example, owes a large part of its debt in payment of Ameri can military supplies and improvements erected on French soil, which were sold to theni at prices far below cost after the war.

THE OPEN CORRESPONDENTS MUST ' SUBMIT TRIOR NAMES TO TUB EP1TOR IF THEY DE SIRE LETTERS. PRINTED. I have been reading a short art 1 do on "Materialism" and it has brought to mind sovoral thoughts. One is that the world has gone mnd with materialism. Even among the broth ers of the railway fraternity a dollar - has assumed greater Importance than the affection and love of brotherhood. I glvn you that as a wordi symbol nnd the meaning Is this. Materialism is represented by the monoy they have managed to set aside in some way during the depression. Around them are a great mnny brothers who .are (n distress. Their better nature demands that they relievo thorn by dividing up the work. But mate rialism says to them to look after themselves. They dlwwinble and find excuses and tell themselves that tho law says ''Self preservation" and the "Survival of tlio fittest." This Is a word picture of tho mil way brother hood of tWhy. ' Now I wish to quote from our President Roosevelt: "But there are no group of men In Amer ica that can withstand tho forco of nn aroused public opinion and those who lag will bo made to feel tho full wrlght of public disapproval." Now ono more quotation: "Some men ro like the sausage. Very smooth upon tho sklri,"""' But you can't always tell Just how much hog there is within." S. T.
