OVR WAR DEBTS
It will probably be a Jong time before Americans hear the
last of the large, debts due this nation by European nations.
They amounted to over $14,000,000,000, of which a little
more than $2,500,000,000 has been paid on the principal,
leaving more than $11,500,000,000 still due. It may be in
teresting for US to see how much has henn naifl hv o;ir-h
, , r
nation on its debt and how much is still owing to this
country: , , ,

SPECTACULAR FLIGHT j
Twenty-four seaplanes left Italy 'recently on an aerial
journey to Chicago proceeding by way of Iceland to the Am
erican continent.' 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. ',;
Years ago three American naval jlanes journey acroas
Europe, by way of Azores, but this flight of twenty-four
Italian planes jn one group is the most ambitious crossing
or tne Atlantic ocean in lorce ever attempted.
The journey was completed with pf nor damage to onte
jplane pu,t of tpe twenty-four. Today, after a visit at their
goal, ihe jCh.icago exposition, the' fliers' are enjoying Ney
.York They have justly earned a happy vacation. . I

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. ' '
Maybe Mussolini, since Camera's victory over Sharkey,
is satisfied that Italy has won her place in the sun.

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."
