HMD Germany Declared to Bo Clatter Ids Into Abyss 'Where Austria Lies ; Others May Follow. ET A. O. GARDINER. Britain's Greatest Liberal Editor. Copyr",hl. 1822. by The Orsonian LONDON'. Au 6. (Special Cable.) On Monday Premier Poincare of France visits London to confer with Lioyd-Georg-s on the subject of Ger man reparations. The circumstances are momentous. Whether Karl Balfour's circular note was addressed primarily to trance or America. Its effect has been equally Important. It brings to a world Issue the touchstone of realities. I foreshadowed this development In my previous dispatches. It comes as the result of many circumstances, the chief one being; the collapse of the mark, which has dispersed the last shred of Illusion about the arrsTtty of the German position. It is realized now that Germany is clattering- into the abyss where Aus tria lies, and if the plunge Is not topped the rest of Europe win fol low. Debt Caaeellatlaa Asked. Earl Balfour's note is in sub stance a declaration for a clean slate for all world debts. The longer the vain pursuit of shadows con tlnuea the deeper the world sinks In the bo it of universal ruin. The only way of escape is to cut the losses and ret down to business. The re-establlahment of a world atmosphere of peace Is the sole con dition of recovery. Ton caanot Iso late bankruptcy. It Is spreading like a plague over the lace of Eu rope. That is the profit in demand ing reparations which yon cannot collect. It is the policy of Shy lock's pound of flesh. But corpses are poor customers. What effect will the Balfour note have on Monday's conference? Ens- land Is prepared to forego clams to reparations If France will adopt a moderate policy. Great Coatrewersy 'Waa-taa-. A great controversy is waging In England as to the wisdom of the Balfour proposal. It is recognized that It practically leaves the whole problem of cancellation dependent on American action. All opinion is agreed as to the wisdom of can cellation, but there is a sharp dis agreement as to whether England can act alone. On one side It is pointed out that England's debt to America was In curred In behalf of France and that to forego reparations, to cancel the French debt and continue to pay Interest on the American debt Is an Impossible burden to place on British taxpayers. Moreover, feeling is strong that French policy has brought Europe to the present desperate pass. France .is showing no disposition to disarm, no disposition to con struct herself, although British trade la paralysed ana British tax payers are struggling under an In tolerable burden. Meanwhile as to the French Income tax it is to laugh. Faraaera WaeUy-Kxeasst. Farmers are wholly exempt from It. Last year only 41 per cent of the tax levied was collected. It is argued with force that England cannot pay the French debt to America while French taxpayers re fuse to bear any of the English man's burden. On the side. It Is said that unless a grand gestut-a comes from some quarter without delay nothing can atop Europe's rot. Europe . cannot continue to wait for America. It Is true that England cannot cancel debts owed to her and at the same time honor debts that she owed to others. But still less can England stand by and witness Europe go to pieces. It is a strangs spectacle that the reactionaries who have done the most to encourage France in her latter day policies, are those who now refuse the consequence of those policies. One thing becomes clearer day by day. In the end reparations and debt alike will be Jettisoned or they will sink the ship. The only question Is whether cancellation all around can come in time. If It came now. with a repudia tion of French policy and the sub stitution of the Anglo-American policy of peace, disarmament and mutual aid. Europe might perhaps be saved. The world wants a great leader nd It looks as if it were perlshfng for lack of vision. STRONG PARTIES WANTED KEPIBLICAXS HOLD i AT ALB.UT. RALLY Walter L. Tooze Jr. and C. E. In jtalls Address Meeting on , Organization Plans. ALBANY, Or.. Aug. 5. (Special.) A republican party In Oregon that Is an organisation In fact as well as In name is the aim of the atate central committee, Walter L. Tooze Jr.. state chairman, atsted here to day In outlining thg plans for th coming campaign before the mem bera of the Linn county central committee. "It Is necessary to reorganize the lines throughout the state Into fighting unit." he continued. "W must get rid of the 'Isms' that flourish when party organization Is lax by organising the voters Into two dominant parties. I am per fectly willing that the democratic state chairman shall do for his party what I am trying to do for mine. For in strong party solidarity lies the ability of the people to get what legislation they desire. Mr. Tooze also attacked the pro vision In the primary law which enables one party to enter the prl mary of its rival. The plan of coupty organization originated by Will Hays when state chairman in Indiana, waa adopted by the Llnn county committee at the meeting this afternoon. A spirit of optimism prevailed at the gathering and both Mr. Tooze and C. E. Ingaiis. state secretary, who also spoke, forecast a victory In the general election next Govern ber. "Parties are Justified by the re sults they hav given. Nothing has ever been accomplished in America In legislation except through party action." remarked Mr. Ingalls. He branded as false doctrine the theory that independent thinking and Independent voting Is the sum- mum bonum in a democracy. The meeting waa presided over by D. H. Bodine, chairman of the Linn county committee. TASK FACES DEBT COLLECTORS America Must "Annul or Await Default, Assertion.

(Copyright. 822. by The Oreconian.) PARIS, Aug. 6. iSpeolal Cable. -The Earl Balfour's note on the European debt situation has on merit. It has started a wave truth-telling which, while unpleas ant in a world unaccustomed frankness for the last eight years, may prove most saiutory. Authoritative voices In every country now assert that they can not Day their debts until the! debtor pays theirs. Who knows bu tomorrow France may admit Ger many cannot pay because nobody owes her anything! The London Times says: "If America, eay we must pay, we must pay. Whereas If wo insist that others should pay us they may be compelled to admit their in solvency." IsuMlveaey la Admitted. . And they do admit It. The Temps, which had Poincare on Its staff be fore he became premier and will have him again soon, says that Bal four's offer to remit all debts be yond what Britain needs to reim burse the United State means that France must pay her pro rata share of this voluntary remission. In other words! she must pay Br'ta'n only about one-elxth of what she haa borrowed. Any other Interpre tatlon, the Temps insists, would be favoring Germany and Russia above France, which France could not ac cept. But .what Is more refreshing, the Temps declares that even thle one sixth, representing only about fS0. 000,000 annually for 25 years, cannot be paid unless Germany pays first. Two Alternatives) Seem. From this the United States may Judge what likelihood there Is of collecting the vastly larger sums owed to It by former allies. Even Great Britain, while proudly assert Ing her solvency, cannot begin to meet payments on the basis of amortization In 25 years. Monday s four-power London con ference will find France endeavor lng to discharge her debts with series C German bonds, which do not near Interest and are worthless until fifty billion gold marks have been paid on series A and B. America soon will have the cho'ce of voluntarily annulling her debts and gaining thereby some reputa tion for generosity or waiting until Europe defaults and Repudiates her obligations. tljught.

Kohlsaat, as the editor and pub lisher of very Important newspa pers and as the Intimate friend and political partner of Hanna, wrote to the latter stating his views. Hanna's reply read as follows: UNITED STATES SENATE, Waahlng- OB. D. C. March 14. 1900.

To get the full effect of this let er ana to realize its bearing on he present lack of men with forth Ight personality like this to real ise the contrast it la only neces sary to let your Imagination dwell for a moment on the kind of dis cursive, equivocal letter that would be written by most men in the sen ate today under analogous circum stances.

Kohleaat, you, can infer from the correspondence, was not completely reouxiea oy Hanna's letter. He kept on preaching his own doctrine in his own papers, and by a process not infrequent among; all of us who write, apparently presented hi own editorials to Hanna. as the consensus or puouc opinion, and seems, the implication Is. to have threatened Hanna for his defiance of what Kohlsaat said waa the stats of pub- uo opmron on mis question. Second Letter Qn.ted. Hanna's reaction to this is set forrh yungently in his next letter: United States Senate, Waahlnaton. D. C. March ST. 10O0.

Now. let ni aiv you som good advice: Drop th agitation and glv us a chanca to el tie th matter In congress and then you can glv m all th hell you want te; to do it now la Be good. Sincerely youra, AC A. HANNA. That letter, read with understand ing of the circumstances, tells the whole story. That Is the kind of political leader we do not have in the United States today nor for that matter do we have any other kind. DeflaJte Coarse Fallowed. Hanna knew his own mind. To try, in the familiar phrase, to "lis ten to the grass roots" was no part of Hanna's conception of leadership. He made up his mind what ought to bedoneand he went nr.' sight to war J It. With Hanna it was not a ques tion of trying to find out what vari ous people or croups of people Letters Show Policy. However to dilate further upon these letters, or upon the contrast . they provide with the lack of lead- z: ershlp In both political parties to day, would be futile. The letters ffll the whole story of the sort of political leadership we had in 1900. The kind we have or rather the kind we lack today, is" familiar knowledge. (Parenthetically, if anyone is In-J terested to supply the word that Kohlsaat left blank In this letter, the' name is Beverldge. Hanna hated Beveridge with the instinc tive hate that the leaden of the herd has for any young aspirant who threatens the security of his power. And when Hanna hated a man he wasn't particular about the words he used to describe him any brick would do. Beverldge at that time, 22 years ago, as a young man In the thirties, was new in the senate, and was ag gressive to a degree that' Hanna didn't think new senators ought to be. Beverldge, In fact, was Just beginning the leadership of that progressive course which a few years later played Into Roosevelt's hands arid enabled the latter to de prlve Mark Hanna of his dominance In the republican party and take it into his own hands. Beverldge Possible Leader, It Is an Interesting and ironic fact that Beverldge who, 22 years ago, was disturbing Hanna by mak ing motions that menaced Hanna's dominance, should now be in a posl tlon where. If he Is elected In No vember, he constitutes one of the few promises now In sight of sup plying the political leadership that the country lacks.) Hanna, I repeat, was merely one kind of a political leader. Also, I repeat, there are other kinds. In point of fact, Hanna, at the moment he wrote that letter, was within a year or two of being sue ceeded by a wholly different type of leader. At the time Hanna wrote these letters McKinley a in the White House. A year and a half later McKinley was murdered and Roosevelt came into the White House. Thereafter, for a brief time. It was a question., whether Hanna In the senate would continue the dominance over the republican party which he had- during Mc- Kinley's regime: or whether Roose velt would elbow him out. Roosevelt Onsta Hanna.- - The question did not long remain n open one. The outcome we all know, now. But Roosevelt, although himself a wholly different type of leader, nevertheless recognized and admired leadership In any ' form. Some years after Roosevelt had dis placed Hanna in the leadership ol he republican party, and alter Hanna's death, Roosevelt said of Hanna, and of the whole" episode, the following words, which are of equal credit both to Roosevelt and to Hanna: 'Senator Hanna had in him the quality that enabled him to meet a serious crisis with dignity, with power, and with disinterested de sire to work for the common good. Within a few days of my accession he called on me, and with entire friendliness and obvious . sincerity. but also with -entire self-respect, explained that he mourned McKin ley as probably no other man did; that he had not been especially my friend, but that he wished me to understand that thenceforward, on every question where he could conscientiously support me, I could count upon his giving me as loyal id as It was in his power to render. Election Fledare Withheld. "He added that this must not be understood as committing him to favor me for nomination and elec tion, because that matter must be left to take care of itself as events should decide: but that, aside from this, what he said was to be taken literally; In other words, he would do his best to make my administra tion a success by supporting me heartily on every point on which he conscientiously could, and that this I could count upon. "He kept his word absolutely. He never became especially favorable to my nomination; and most of his close friends became- bitterly op posed to me and used every effort to 'persuade him to try to bring about my downfall. Most men In his position would have been tempt ed to try to make capital at my ex pense by antagonizing me and dis crediting me so as to make my policies fail, just for the sake of making them fail. Hanna Keeps Word. "Senator Hanna, on the contrary, did everything possible to make them succeed. He kept his-word In the letter and the spirit, and on every point on which he felt con scientiously able to support me he gave me the heartiest and most effective support, and did all in his power to make my administra tion a success; and this with no hops of any reward for himself, of any gratitude from me, or of any appreciation by ths public at large, but solely because he deemed such action necessary for the .well being of the -country as a whole." This narrative of the present lack of leadership In the republican party, and of its past leadership, and of the relation of Hanna and Roosevelt to each other, may be closed appropriately with an ac count of an incident which illus trates the relations of the two men. and had the additional Interest of containing an element of humor. Roosevelt Telia Story. Let me tell the story first in the words in which Roosevelt wrote It In his autobiography, at a time when, for reasons of delicacy, he omitted ths names of the charac ters and much else that, make the incident in its literal form racy and entertaining. As written by Roosevelt in his sutoblography, the incident reads thus: Thero were many other men of mark in both houses with whom could work on fcome points. whereas on others we had to dif fer. There was one powerful leader a burley, forceful man of admirable traits who had, how ever, been trained in the post bellum school of business and poli tics, so that his attitude towards life, quite unconsciously, remind ed mo a little of Artemus Ward's view of the Tower of London 'If I like it.

There is one other substitution which ought to be made In order to complete the literal version of the story. But "Pitt Rodney" is still alive.

He was one of the lawyers for the previous owners of the Panama ca nal and he was more familiar than anyone else with all the Panama nians and all the circumstances in volved. With these expurgations supplied and other essential expansions, the actual story would read about as follows: At the time Roosevelt was taking over the Panama canal Hanrla was keenly aware of the gravity of the enterprise and much concerned to see that everything should be dons correctly and in order.
