So Poland defaulted on her war

neychased the Russians out of the
Masurian swamps and the world was
told that Poland was "to be sacrific
ed on the altar of Kalaerlsm." How
the Poles made the tears flow I When
the news came that the Teutonic
hordes had seised the postoffice In
Warsaw, did the indignation mount.
Why Porter Neff, a 4-mlnute speaker,

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am engaged to a nice young
man and we expected to be mar- j
rled In June, but I lost my Job a
month ago.
A statistician at Oregon State Col
lege has figured out with nothing
concealed up his sleeves, that the
Orangemen are socond to Southern
California In the football standings
of the nation. The deductions excel
those offered by "Old Oregon" the
year they claimed the Pacific Coast
championship because Willamette
University failed to beat them.
The governor thinks the session of
the state legislature will consider
nothing but taxation measures. The
governor don not know thst hip
pocket have already started to bulge
with Rogue River fish bull.
It's beyond us. If the people would
spend four billion, everybody would
prosper: If the Government spends
four billion, everybody Is poorer.

he laid off 300.000. The 100.000 he

Should All Debts Be Cancelled?
WE have received a communication, not for publication,
which asks if this newspaper doesn't believe in cancel
lation of the war debts, and if it does, why it doesn't SAY SO.
If this newspaper DID believe in cancellation of- the war
debts at this time believed such action would be best for this
country and for the world it WOULD say so.
But it doesn't so believe. It does believe that no MATER
IAL part of the remaining debts to this country, will be paid.
But inability to secure any major portion of this ten or twelve
billions in gold is one thing; voluntarily writing them off is
quite another.
NT fact, we believe cancelling the war debts now, would be a
great mistake. The justice of this debt is unquestioned,
the obligation of the debtors to pay up to their capacity is
ako unquestioned. We believe in standing pat for the Decem
ber 15th payments, the United States was not only well within
its rights, but contributed to a clearing of the entire inter
national atmosphere. '
- As tbo situation now stands, the European sheep are pretty
well separated from the European goats. Great Britain, as
expected, came through nobly, so did Italy, Czecho-Slovakia,
Finland, Latvia and Lithuania.
France, also as expected, refused to pay. So did Belgium,
Poland, Esthania, Hungary and Greece.
QO there they stand. The nations that regard their obliga-
tions to this country as a debt of honor, and those who
don't. Our attitude toward these countries, will be and
should be influenced by their action. Had we cancelled the
debts, or extended the moratorium, there would have been no
such division, and our foreign policy would not have been
clarified, as it has been.
This phase of the matter however, is relatively unimportant.
Another phase of the matter however, ISN'T unimportant. In
fact we regard it as of supreme importance.
HPO illustrate: let us assume these war debts had been can-
celled yesterday by the United States, as the artful Euro
pean propogandists proposed. . '
What would Uncle Sams' position be today t He would be
laudod as the saviour of Europe no doubt; he would be ac
claimed as a Santa Clans not only in word, but in deed. But
coming down to brass tacks, what sort of a spot would he be in t
IT must be plain to any thinking person that from an inter-
national standpoint he would be sunk completely. His hold
on Europe would be gone along with his $100,000,000 paid
yesterday, and the billions due thereafter. The greatest lev
erage he has ever held over Europe the greatest talking point
for trade benefits, for political concessions, for disarmament
in which he so strongly believes, would have been abandoned,
and nothing whatover to show for it not a scrap of paper or
a dime I tfnele Sam would be written down as the greatest
D. F. the easiest mark, the most childish bungler of all time.
e e e e
00 that is why we do NOT favor debt cancellation at the
J present time. Not that we have any. illusions about these
billions ever being paid in gold in fact it would take the
entire stock of gold in the world today to pay them. But be
cause they can be paid in other things in raw materials, in
trade benefits, in political concessions, in agreements to reduce
armaments on land and sea, in any number of ways, beneficial
to this country and to the world.
And that undoubtedly is what will be done in the interna
tional debt conference which President Hoover favors, and
which President-elect Roosevelt at the former's request, pub
licly endorsed.
WITH ALL interested nations represented at this confer
once, (hose who have met their obligations, those who
have not, and the United States as creditor, treating them all
alike, demanding money from those able to pay in money,
demanding some non-monetary equivalent from those who can't
do so, there is every reason to believe some agreement, reas
onably satisfactory to all will be reached.
The debts may be further reduced, porhaps from ten to
one billion, provided such an amount is paid at once in cash.
But WHATEVER the final result, Uncle Sam at least will
not have committed the fatal blunder of cancelling all the
debts at the present time.
The Auto License Problem
A LL the proposals for lowering of automobile licenses in
this state, we have seen, have two factors in common.
First a lowering of the average license fee to approximately
$5 the lowest to $3, and a material increase in the licenses
on commercial trucks and motor busses.
We bcliove both propositions are essentially sound. The
present motor license fee must be radically reduced. As we
stated, when the truck bill came up at the November election,
while that measure went too far, there should be a material
readjustment, placing a smaller burden upon the private car
and a far greater burden on the commercial car.
IN this direction it is interesting to note what has been done
in England, which on the basis of area, has the greatest
number of automobile vehicles in the world.
As a result of a national conference, attended by an equal
number of railway and automobile executives, it was mutually
agreed that the entire cost of construction and maintenance of
highways about $300,000,000 a year should be borne by those
using the-highways, and that trucks should pay their fair
share of thoso costs.
The license fee of the six-ton truck was placed at $525 per
year, the ten-ton truclj. at $1100 per year. A gas tax of 13J-S
cents pel gallon was adopted.
These figures are given not because we believe they are
necessarily adapted to conditions in this country; but to give
the people of this Btate, some idea of what people in other
parts of the world are doing.
The automotive problem, the highway problem and the
finunciiil problem are norld-wido problems. A complete sur
vey would probably show that in every part of the world, as
is true in England and in this state, the necessity of the trucks
and motor busses paying TIIEIU PAIR SHARE of highway
costs and operation, has been accepted, as a primary step in
the proper solution of those problems.

My Dear Dr. Brady:
Our class had a
discussion on the
subject of tea and
coffee. Our teach-
er tried to con
vince us that we
should not drink
It, but I think abe failed.
Would you kindly give your rea
sons for not wanting children to
drink tea or coffee?
The children In our class are be
tween the ages of 13 and 18 and
some of them drink it at breakfast
time.
If you will prove to them that It
Is not good for their health I will
be very grateful.
Very truly yours,
A cup of coffee contains a fair
medicinal dose of caffeine, an alka-
Jold of the same class as strychnine,
morphine, atrophlne, etc.. tho caf
feine la comparatively nonpolsonous.
The purpose for which physicians
administer the drug caffeine by
mouth or by hypodermic Injection Is
stimulation. It stimulates the heart;
It stimulates the cerebrum. It stim
ulates the spinal cord; it stimulates
the kidneys.
A cup of tea contains a small dose
of a similar alkaloid called thelne.
Tho thelne Is not used In medicine,
Its effects are similar In all respects
to those of caffeine, tea being some
what milder than coffee.
It la conceivable that In certain
circumstances these beverages or
drugs ml&ht be beneficial for a child
but that would be a matter for the
physician to decide. Certainly the ef
fects of tea or coffee are not desir
able for the normal, healthy child.
That Is why we think children under
10 years of age should not take tea
or coffee.
If children must have a beverage
other than water, soup, milk or any

To the Editor:
I have been a subscriber to the
Mali Tribune ever since I came to
Southern Oregon in 1931. , I have not
always agreed with Its policies, but I
have never doubted Its Integrity or
sincerity. I have always thought and
still think It compares aa a newspaper
favorably with any other small town
dally on the coastor tn the country
for that matter. Of late, however, I
have been told by my neighbors re
peatedly that the Mull Tribune U fi
nanced and owned by the California
Oregon power company, aa an evi
dence that the Tribune has always
played the Copco game In the matter
of maintaining present high rates. I
am now writing tn ask If this latrue.
I don't believe it, but I have no evi
dence to support my belief. I would
appreciate a statement from yon re
garding this matter. If you prefer not
to answer In your columns I would
appreciate a personal letter which I
can show to my neighbors around
here confirming my view. Or if they
are right and I am wrong, confirm
ing theirs. If there Is nothing to
such talk I think. In Justice to Itself,
the Mall Tribune should make a pub
lic statement to that effect. I dont
want my name published.

However, for the benefit of our
friendly correspondent, we can state
once more this statement not only is
NOT true, It Is the exact REVERSE
of the truth.
The Mall Tribune would probably
benefit as much or more than any
business by a reduction In light and
power rates. We pay on an average
of $135 a month to the California
Oregon Power company for such ser
vice, and as officials of the power
company will agree, this paper has
tried for years to secure a reduction.
The matter of reduction la now be
fore he state public service commis
sioner, and under our existing law
the final decision must rest with that
department. We believe this Is the
proper way to settle such a contro
versy not by political or public
clamor, but by Judicial decision. Nei
ther the California Oregon Power
company nor any other business or
corporation owns any stock in this
paper, or has ever contributed a dime
toward financing It. The control of
this paper is In the same hands It
haa been In for over 30 years, and
during all that time It has financed
itself and In spite of the depression Is

"De Ducks Eat 'Em.

This story comes from Queensland,
Australia, It Is too good to scrap.
I thought you would like to pass It on.
The ok. Negro and his peaches, when
he asked the storekeeper for credit:
"Sam, have you sold your peaches?"
"Yes sor. But de ducks don' gone
eat up alt dem peaches."
When he went to collect his pay.
they told him:
"De ducks for hauling,
De ducks for packing,
De ducks for storage,
De ducks for freight,
De ducks for commission.'
So you see "de ducks don' gone eat

Why Not a Peace Dep't?
To the Editor:
X have seen nothing In our western
press concerning the "peace mara
thons. which are being generally held
throughout the eat. Does this move
ment at this time extend to the west?
It Is sponsored by the national com
mittee on the cause and cure of war
and apparently haa gained much Im
petus In some part of the country.
Trends, movements and Institutions,
designed for the substitution of re
curring wars, are being thoroughly
explained and discussed. The various
units In this movement are earnestly
studying methods of strengthening
these units, to compel governments to
move forward to permanent peace.
We have a war department at Wash
ington. Why not have a peace de
partment? ,
Since there are more thsn 100 peace
organisations In the United States
and about 1000 throughout the
world. Including the League of Na
tions, the World Court, the Court of
Arbitration at the Hague, interna
tional treaties and pledges, concilia
tion agreements, etc., all this urge,
in the direction of peace, must in
evitably lead to something nobler
than armed force. If all these forces
would cease their efforts to convince
the unbelieving and have faith that
they, themselves, have the power to
carry forward these great movements,
success would surely crown their ef
forts. Love Is the gresteat force of
all.
