Newspaper Page TextTHE MORNING OREGONIAN, THURSDAY. OCTOBER 27. 1921 L governments are now in Washington for this purpose. The position of the United States on this point is that while an Inter national institution for the stabilisa tion of exchange would be both prac ticable and useful, it cannot be either practicable or useful until the Eu ropean governments first set their houses in order by stopping the print ing of paper currency, by ceasing to spend excessive amounts of money for armament and otherwise by living within their means as their humble citizen is obliged to do in order to avoid bankruptcy. After these things have been ac complished by the Kuropean govern ments, which are themselves the only agencies that can accomplish them, then and not till then America will be glad to consider the idea of an Inter national Institution for stabilizing ex change.

BT MARK SULLIVAN. (Copyright. 11121. by the New York Evening 1'uat. Inc.. Published by Arrangement.) WASHINOTON. D. C, Oct. 26 (Special.) Decidedly the best Judg ment is that the continually recur ring talk about "financial matters" coming; up at the armament confer ence In Washington next month Is founded more upon wishes than upon likelihood. The "financial matters" that persons have In mind who talk In this way are three, namely, the debts owed by the European govern ments to tne United States, the re adjustment of the amount of repara tions which Germany shall pay the European allies and a scheme for stabilizing; international exchange. None of these three is Included In the agenda Of the conference as they now stand, and no one of the three Is likely to be added. The agenda have not been changed, either by ad ditions or omissions, since they were practically agreed upon some four weeks ago. Forelg-a Action Possible. True, the agenda are not Ironclad, the additions can be made at any time, either before or after the con ference opens. It is true also that the American government cannot prevent financial matters or any other matters being Introduced, formally or informally, after the con ' ference opens. But the public will be better guided If they keep it clearly In mind that the conference is called solely for two main purposes, first, the discussion of armament by Japan and Oreat Britain, the United States, Italy and France; and second, discussion of Holland, Belgium, Portugal and China, four na tions which have Interests In the far east but are not primarily concerned with armament. The addition of "financial matters" to these two subjects can only be ac complished by overcoming a marked Indisposition on the part of those who are primarily Interested In a success ful outcome of the conference as to Its original purposes of reducing arma ment and agreeing on far eastern questions. Finance Experts licft Out. If any one wants convincing evi dence that President Harding could not have expected that financial mat ters should be discussed at the con ference, let him look at the men he has named as delegates. Neither Hughes, Root, Lodge, nor Underwood is a financial expert. If financial or economic matters were contemplated you would 8eeelther Mellon or Hoover, or both, on the delegation. It is true that certain things are going on in Washington and. else where more or less informally, and to an extent under cover, which may result In a discussion, formal or in formal, of financial matters either parallel to the Washington confer ence or Immediately subsequent to it. As to the debts owed by European na tions to Americans congress Is Just completing- legislation to enable a committee headed by Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, to reduce these obli gations to a more satisfactory form than they are now in. Action Is Independent. But this will be a simple transac tion between a creditor and his more or less embarrassed debtors, and It has no direct relation to the confer ence. There are some persons in America who believe we would do well to cancel these debts in whole or In part, and there are some other persons who believe that some of these debts can never be paid. Whatever bearings these views have upon what Mr. Mellon') commis sion w.lll do has lis direct relation to the coming conference. It is true also that as to German reparations several statesmen among the Kuropean allies know perfectly well that Germany cannot pay all the reparations with which she Is now saddled. They, have known this all along and their fixing of th repara tions at so excessive a figure was done for political effect In their own countries. They know now, as they have always known, that the amount will have to be reduced before the world can get going again satisfac torily. They don't like to incur from their own people the odium of mak ing this reduction themselves, and they would like to get us to partici pate in the action in order to bear soma of the responsibility. America to Avoid Job. There Is however, no likelihood of our taking on this role. It Is a fact that America suffers with the rest of the world so long as the amount of the reparations is left at a figure which Germany cannot pay. Never theless, our policy is to let that trans action be cared for by the statesmen and the nations who were primarily responsible for doing the wrong thing from the beginning.

To guard against possible loss on perishable freight in case the threat ened strike becomes a reality, local railroads are preparing to declare embargoes. Meanwhile the operating departments are making ready to run trains with as little delay as possible in the event the trainmen and engine men quit. Advertisements placed by tho Southern Pacifio company to obtain men to take charge of the trains in case the brotherhood members strike have brought many applications from experienced trainmen, enginemen and other skilled workmen, according to officials of tbj company. With these men ready to accept positions and those that are counted on to remain en the Job in spite of the instructions of their leaders, the company offi cials here believe there will be little delay In getting trains moving. Members of the brotherhoods are sitting tight and making ready to walk out In compliance with execu tive orders. No orders contrary to those Issued a few days ago, when It was announced that the Northern Pa cific and Southern Pacific men would walk out on the morning of October SO have been received. "What most of the brotherhood men are hoping for now is that the government will step In and take rome action that will prevent them from striking." declared a railroad official yesterday. "The men are not nearly so keen for a strike as they were several days ago. They see the companies preparing to put other men in their places and the prospect of unemployment Is not agreeable to many of the men who have spent their lives as enginemen and train men." The rail officials here are not wor ried over the threatened walkout of the telegraphers. They declare that many of the office men are telegra phers and can step Into the vacated positions on short notice and carry on the work. HIGHWAY BIDS SLATED (Continued From First Page.) Lebanon to Cascadia and beyond toward McKenzie pass. The people want nothing but a paved road be tween Albany and Lebanon and they want the Crabapple route. As they have no funds available, the people offer to orgaize a road improvement district, as permitted under a 1931 law, and go BO-EO with the highway commission In building the road to Lebanon. Then the county promises not to ask the commission for help from Lebanon on to Cascadia and the mountain pass until such time as the What You Should Do After Your Bath or when warm or nervous.

All of the Pacific highway in Linn county will be paved next year, the commission assured a delegation. The only delay will come from failure of the base to be sufficiently settled to receive the surfacing. It is the wish of the commission to finish the paving through Polk and Benton counties In the coming year. A gap in the MInam-Joseph road will cost about $103,000. but the county is hard pressed for funds. The commission is considering a plan to advance money to the county, to be repaid from budgeted funds in 1922 and 1923. The commission also di rected the engineering force to check up and ascertain what it owes Deschutes county under an agreement to gravel certain roads.
