THE JUDGE’- He Should Have Asked For Bananas April 3. 1925 JUDGE 1THIMK WE HAD BETTER TME SOME SOUND PRINCIPLES FOR ALLIED DEBTS fruit ALonqio mother ^ surc \ whaï FRUIT 00 «U THMK SHE'D like Payments to America Should Be Guided by Dawes Plan, Says C. E Mitchell Ths fundamental principles of th« Dawes pten for settling the European war debt question ar« applicable to the problem of the Allied debts to the United States. Charles & Mitchell, president of the National City Bank of New York, declares In an article In the imriean Bankers Association Journal Mr Mitchell says: “Debts between nations are »1^^’ a source of international trouble, and I consider it of great Importance that our own economic as well as political ’ relations with such countries as Fraace. Belgium and Italy may be im proved by an early adjustment of their debts to our own national gov ernment Country Endorsed Dawe« Plsn "I bop« that wo are gradually learn ing that sack debt«, if unduly forced, may result more calamitously to the commercial Interest« of our own coun try than to those of the debtor coun try This talk of forcing payment of •«very dollar to the last penny.' Is commercially unwise I think we may assume that the Dawes plan has had »he Indorsement of the American peo- n|e through their election of General - h to the-Vice Presidency of the t it i-d States That plan Is one that principles esiablisheB fundamental which may be applied in considering tbe debts of one nation to another resulting from war “The first principle, as I ie* It. is that tbe yoke of the war debt shall not be held as a burden upon tbe people beyond the generation that had to do with the war. This principle is clearly Intimated In the fact that the IndnstrtaJ and railway debentures which form the principal security and means of payment of the debt carry 6 per cent Interest with 1 per cent ambrttzaUoa. which means that such obligations are to be over a period of about thirty-six years. An InvttetloR to Trouble "Any attempt to force tho carrying of such debt burdens to tho second •md third generations is but as on graved inriution to further trouble .he test pennyIn the adjastmant of our foreign relations, essential to the development of increased export and import trade there can be no problem of greater Importance than reaching a sound and final conclusion as to this Irritating question of th« debts of al lied countries to ourselves." THUS, F. WOODLOCK ON “SUCKER LISTS' ADVERSITY A STIMULANT TO GOOD FARMING An Interesting experience is told by Dean Dodson of a Louisiana farmer who was just about breaking even I d growing cotton. One day his wife fell seriously 111 and was obliged to go to the hospital A little later his daugh ter was also taken to the hospital Befor« he was through with this ex pertence he was confronted with s hill for $2.200 What was be to do? Like a good business man he be gan to figure how he might Increase bls Income and cut down his ex penses He had a few cows that he kept for raising calves. He -started to milk these and sell the product. He had some cull potatoes that were unsalable, He fed these to his cows and some pigs which be was able to buy right Other waste producto were utilized in the came manner. In the garden he had more turnips than he needed for his own use. These he sorted, celling the best and feeding the poor one«. H* consulted with his merchants as to what garden crops he might profitably grow for the local market He figured that he had some idle land that he might use In growing grain and hay. He enlarged his flock of poultry and toek better care of it He was mor« careful in the use of his auto and saved a considerable sum that ordinarily went for gasoline. By taking advantage of tbe Increased sources of Income and by cutting out annoceeeary expenses he .was able by the end of the year to pay off his hos- pital bill, and in the meantime bad diecovered the secret of sound and sdeceaaful farming.— Baakor-Famti STRAIGHT TALKS WITH AUNT EMMY OBSERVER WANT ADS Rate«: Under 15 word«, 35c 15 <o 30 word«, 50c Over 30 wd«., Ijic per wd.
