PEOPLE BACK PREMIER
Lloyd George Slated to Get High
est Ovation of Career In
. Commons This Week,
' BT WILLIAM BIRD.
(Ctoprrlrht. 1922, br Th Oregonlaa.)
LONDON,, May ..20. (Special by
Wireless.) -Some Idea of the in
flammable state of Europe may be
gleaned from the fact that the guar
antees of the mutual non-aggression
pact now are phrased in months In
stead of years.
Lloyd George's original non-ag-tressive
agreement was to cover ten
years. The truce finally obtained
pperates barely nine months.
Europe Is -not ready to agree to
keep the peace much beyond the
present year, of 1922. After that
what? The significance of these
Jacts is deeply impressing the British
nation. They now are behind Lloyd
George so far as foreign policies are
concerned almost to a man.
'; Brief Truce Obtained.
v This is a sharp change from last
week. The people now believe that
their premier worked day and night
at Genoa against threats of war, de
termined to bring about lasting peace
If possible, and finally obtaining by
superhuman effort a brief truce dur-
lag which new peace efforts can be
put forth.
When Lloyd George appears in the
bouse of commons Monday or Tues
day he will receive the highest ova
tion of his career and the whole na
tion will echo ft.
The nation would applaud him if
he were to say that France today
was the biggest obstacle to peace,
although he will not say it. Those
who say that English public opinion
Is for the entente at any price are
mistaken. Englishmen, especially
ithose whose sons fought, bled and
died beside their French comrades,
would regret an open rupture for
Sentimental reasons, but will not
blame their government if it comes.
They regard France, rather than
Russia, as the main obstructionist at
Genoa, and are mystified at Ameri
ca's apparent support of France.
Premier Held Peacemaker.
British public opinion considers
Lloyd George as the great peace
maker and France as a saber-rattling
nation. An impartial observer, how
ever, cannot see it that way. Lloyd
George was working for peace, but
peace on British terms paix Britan
nlca. France obstructed such a peace
not because France wants war, but
because she wants peace on other
terms. The test of Lloyd George's
disinterestedness in seeking Euro
pean peace easily is made. One need
only ask what has he ever done to
ward reconciling France and Ger
many. The answer is nothing and
the reasons are clear. The traditional
Uritish policy is to diivde Europe
with England holding the balance
and making all others dependent on
her friendship at any price. Franco
German unity is the last thing Eng
land would foster, if it seemed
probable it Is practically certain that
London would do everything to fore-,
stall it.
The British tory "die hards" say
that Lloyd George is destroying the
British empire, but they know full
well that he is working for a Euro
pean peace on British terms only and
will accept war rather than any other
peace.
If France and Germany tomorrow
made a pact similar to the Russo
German treaty of Rapallo it would
establish European continental peace
on a rock foundation, but it would
also be the greatest blow British for
eign policy ever suffered. No in
formed, honest observer will question
that. And that shows better than
anything the essential difference be
tween peace and paix Britannica

Nine Operators on Kerry Line vt
NINE operators on the Kerry line
are putting over 1,500,000 feet
of logs into the Columbia every day,
and the yearly output of the line now
represents B0 per cent of the logs put
into the Columbia river. In addition
to the logging operations, two. large
ehlngle mills and three sawmills are
operating on the line, says the Clats
kanie. Or., Chief.
The camps are estimated tn nnin
at least 1500 men, with a payroll rang
ing upwards to $7000 a day. The fig
ures represent practically a normal
output rather than rush work, al
though the combined output is tax
ing the road almost to its capacity.
The cut along the line can continue
at its present rate six to ten years
and still leave much timber. Some
of the operators, however, will be
forced to start on new holdings with
in a much shorter period.
Nine logging camps, employing as
high as 200 to 300 men to a camp, are
in operation. They are: Kerry Tim
ber company, Porter-Carstens, Elwood
Logging company, Westport Lumber
company, Hammond Lumber com
pany and Dee Logging company,
Kiernan & Flora, Noyes-Holland Log
ging company and Chaney & Chris
tenson. Another Oil Well Being; Drilled.
McMinnville people took much in
terest in the sinking of the oil well
at Amity, on which work has stopped
for a time, says the News-Reporter.
Another oil well is being drilled on
the Pelletan place, two miles south
of St. Paul, Marion county, about
eight miles from Newberg. The well
is being put down by a group of Cali
fornia men who are convinced that
petroleum deposits exist in western
Oregon. John T. Rea, a veteran oil
drilller who has worked in the oil
fields of Oklahoma, California and
Mexico, is in charge of the drilling
operations and the drill has gone
more than 600 feet.
Tront Jnmps Out of River. Caught.

It is not often that an automobile
turns over three times, falls down a

occupants or doing serious damage to
the machine, but such was the ex

coasting down a grade when loose
gravel caused the coupe to skid and
it went over an embankment on the
Netarts road to the bottom, a distance
of 60 feet. It turned over threee times
before alighting. Neither of the oc
cupants was hurt, and the only dam
age done was a broken glass of one

loganberries now in bearing will
require' a heavy force throughout
the season. The company has with
in a stone throw of McMinnville
the largest individual fruit acreage
in the Willamette valley. During the

more than 240 acres to various varie
ties of fruit. , When this acreage

a total advance to the members rang

RELIGIOUS H GROWS
Y. M. C. A. ACTIVITIES GAINING

H. W. Stone, Portland Secretary,
Observes Rejuvenation of Spirit
In Eastern Centers.
A rejuvenation of religious spirit
throughout large eastern centers and
rapid expansion in the religious work
programme of the Y. M. C. A. were
observed by H. W- Stone, general
secretary of the Portland T. M. C. A.,
who has just returned frbm a trip
to New York, where, as directing head
of the Y. M. C. A. schools of North
America, he attended a conference to
settle on standardization of textbooks.
It was at a gathering of 150 asso
ciation executives from various large
cities in the United States and Can
ada, held at Lakehurst, N. J., -that
Mr. Stone heard reports of surprising
growth in religious work.
"Two years ago the outlook seemed
discouraging," he said. "During the
last year the Y. M. C. A has had the
largest religious work in its history.
There was a notable expansion in
Bible classes, religious meetings and
in the movement for social righteous
ness. There Is a growing expression
of religion in daily life.
"The association is entering upon
large building campaigns. Pittsburg,
Pa., on June 1, will start the erection
of a $1,250,000 central building, and
will erect a branch building costing
$250000 for colored young men. Fort
Worth, Tex., has just raised $377,000,
for a building. A large amount of
this was raised after the flood. The
associations are showing great vital
ity over the country."
The general growth in activities is
expected to be reflected in intensified
work In the Portland association.
Mr. Stone said mills were resuming
operations In New England, New
York and Pennsylvania; that con
struction of business structures and
homes was active, but that conditions
in the Mississippi valley were yet
rather quiet.

ernors of the United Y. M. C. A.

BERLIN, May 20. (Special cable.)
America bitterly disappointed the
hope of Lloyd George that, she would
discover a new Europe In the birth
place of Columbus. Today there Is
substituted another hope, namely,
that the steamer bringing J. P. Mor
gan will, like another far-distant pil
grim ship, bring blessings to those in
sore need thereof. As Genoa's daring
son discovered another world when
seeking India, why shouldn't the bold
Wall street lmperator discover that
peace and paradise is on the way to
big business? '
The promise' of abundant financial
help has been whispered over the
foaming prow of the Olympic In mid
ocean, and the materialistic humanity
of today Is giving It a heartier wel
come than the gospel the apostles re
ceived. At last the people hear that
dread high finance has decided to
grant a loan, thus saving Germany
from reparations pincers and meeting
France's urgent need for money. It
sounds good and, to readers weak by
inflation, tastes like a glass of Pom
mery or Mouton Rothschild after long
prohibition, but In this world of real
ities It is not as easy as It looks on
paper. . -
Hlprh Interest Bogey.
If the bankers who make up the
golden International grant us the loan
they will demand high Interest, sure
guarantees and will say that the land
that pays 2400 marks a bottle for
1921 wine the best vintage In a cen
tury can pay Interest also and fur
nish guarantees which must be rigid
to prevent further extravagances In
a country whose most prominent
class Is not ashamed to live- luxuri-
ously despite the nation's debts. Thus
it will be impossible to borrow suf-
ficient gold marks without giving in
ternational control - through mort-
gages on the railways, postofflces,
telegraphs, industrial and landed
wealth. The Interest will be terribly
heavy, and the loss of sovereign
rights Intolerable for a highly cul
tured nation.
Would France be saved If Germany
submitted? She has an internal debt
of 202,000,000,000 and a foreign debt
of 83,000,O'00,OO0 francs, requiring
about 9,000,000 francs annually for In
terest, even If 9,000,000,000 owed her
by small allies are unexpectedly
amortized.
Political Problems Vital.
Political conditions, it would seem
to me, are so much more Important
at the moment, namely, no more mili
tary sanctions by France and reduc
tion of the armies of occupation.
What was omitted at Genoa especially
on account of the untimely Russo
German treaty should now take place
in the way of a thorough clearing up
of the Franco-German relations. The
key to the European peace temple is
In Paris. After Lloyd George's invec
tive and the way France has been
pilloried as a peace disturber, she will
be less inclined than ever to disarm
and abandon her strategic Rhine po
sitions. Distrustful fear, not hatred and
conquest, explain her attitude. Her
oldest ally, Russia, who nourished
her distrust for Germany, not only
failed as a protector, but since 1917
has turned against France and is
even trying to escape her debt of
20,000,000,000 gold francs. The United
States not only failed to ratify the
Versailles peace, but vetoed Wilson's
promised guarantee. Great Britain,
who got all she wanted from the war
and will never allow Germany to re
build her fleet, expects resignation
from France, plays peacemaker and
threatens to dissolve the entente,
which, after all, was merely the child
and a mutual anti-German (marriage,
and takes Italy in tow, for a country
with a long coast line needing coal
does not dare risk the enmity of Eng
land. French Position Difficult.
France is in a position which, if it
were unalterable, would be tragic.
By an expenditure of a tremendous
military energy surpassing ali of her
allies, she won a victory which ruined
heT financially. The hoped-for Ger
man indemnity never came as recom
pense for her losses, and she has
made a collective peace treaty which
can be effective only with the consent
of all signatories. The French policy,
wrongly called Imperialistic, is cursed
with unfruitfulness on account of
three mistakes.
First, she forgets that in a Europe
from which Russia has disappeared
na in nrrflvB oolitical factor, a France
at enmity with Germany is wholly de
pendent on England s good will.
whose Interests are exactly tne op
posite of those of France; second, if
Germany Is aroused to sucn a tre
mendous export activity as would De
needed to fulfill half of the repara
tions duty, it not only would ruin
England's trade, but Germany would
become much stronger economically
than France, hence her most powerful
enemy, as industrial power nowadays
means power to make war. To pre
vent this danger France makes the
third mistake when sne opposes tne
necessity for general disarmament,
and refuses to abandon the right of
military sanctions though even Foch
opposes any Ruhr march tnus reap
ing the hatreg of besieged Germany.
Special Treaty Needed.
Is this situation unalterable? No,
France needs 'a special treaty which
needs not be milder, only more rea.
sonable and practicable than that of
Versailles and an economic and cus
toms union with Germany which
would preserve her from attack more
surely than the strongest Rhine army
and could be held by both to secure
amDle coal. iron, potash, petroleum,
needed. A reat colonial empire would
then begin to flourish and the pres
ent unnatural conditions would end.
Who could doubt that a Franco-German
economic union would receive a
large reconstruction loan from the
United States after an understanding
for world peace?
