MWyXX SSLHIII TRAVELER IN NAPLES. ITALY Claude SteUSloff WriteS tO His Father of the Con ditions in Europe V. H. Steusloff. the well known Saiem resident, has receiv ed an interesting letter from his son Claude, who is now in Italy, and who expects to be back home about Christmas. Th letter is dated at Naples. Nov. 5, and is as folio s:) Dear Father. This trip has been an eye-opener to me tn many ways. The old saying is: Seeing a thing once is like reading it ten times. From the newspaper I gather that the European debts to the United States are the subject of much discussion in the United States as well as here. I might as well express my personal views to you. Europe is different than the United States in that it ia very thickly populated and is made up of a number of different races packed in close to each other. These race have ancient griev ances which the nations and in dividuals in them exaggerate in stead of trying to forget them. Wjars have been going on in Eur ope sir.ee history began and un less thought and policies change they will continue to occur Just as surely as time goes on. The United States can gain nothing by meddling in European politics; it will only lead to entangling al liances and consequent participa tion in quarrels. These countries are right now increasing instead of decreasing armaments. Italy has 500,000 men in her army and the fascist! policy is to increase It. France has the largest army in the world. And consider the size of these countries. England alone has re duced and has about 150,000, or the same number as has the United States. Germany of course just now Is restricted but will start up at the first opportunity You can talk with any German and he will tell you about another war with France. Whoever got beatcu last prepares to come back. European politics is like a merry go-round. The army is the favor ite resort for the upper classes. and as long as soldiering as a pro fession Is looked up to like it is here there must be wars. Of course the poor devil ia the one who pays for it all. He can't win. There are many poor in all these countries, made and kept poor by the excessive armaments.1 But even the poor fellow thinks fight and will rush to the colors at ihe call of the high men, all under the guise of patriotism. So sympathy for the unfortunate should not affect the question too much. The war debts were made by each country separately to the United States at their request tfnd with their promise to pay and have no connection with other debts. When a neutral nation loans to a nation at war theso loans should be considered as loans and not as investments In a war. England, France and Italy all received something definite in territory from the war and the United States did not. We all surely feel that the United States should and will help Europe to re cover when the nations show a disposition toward constructive government. But Just now every week brings up new feuds and new enemies, with all possibilities of war, as shown In the Near East. So. cancelling debts is like adding fuel to the flames which these countries keep going. CLAUDE. Naples, Nov. 5. 192?. Prominent Young Couple of Dallas Are Married DALLAS. Or.. Dec. 2.
