.NEIA,
WV Not Face the Facts?
America must know now that It la for her to bsttls for dle
armament. England steps In and shows why. That country haa definitely
dsclded not to pay ua full wsr-debt installments.
Irutaad of the 4, 583,470,000 aha owaa, aha will pay a lump
aum of 8478,000,000. Or, Instead of the $88,500,000 every all
months under the scaled-debt agreement, aha will make token
payments of 15,000, 000.
Such la the gratitude the American people are awarded for
the billions they subscribed in Liberty bonds to aave England
from certain Invasion by German armies.
Sudi la the appreciation of the service of American lada who
thrust back the Central armies when the latter were at the
Channel ports on their way to London.
Isn't this new development enough to convince America that
world disarmament and guaranteed peace are the one course by -which
to aave ouraelvea from having, later on, to again cross the
Atlantlo to aettle another European war? Portland Journal.
' I 'ub above is offered ai evidence of the inability of a news-
paper to face facta, and reach a practical and logical con
clusion, from a non-sentimental consideration of those facts.
In the first place while England has decided not to pay us
"full war debt installments" it has already paid us a larger
proportion of itg debt than any other European country. Amer
ica's service to England was not as great as America's service
to France, and yet Great Britain has shown far more gratitude,
both financially and diplomatically than has the European re
public. A realistic attitude would, therefore, never pick out England
as the horrible example of the lack of appreciation of the service
of American lads in checking the German invasion, but would
pin the badge of ingratitude upon La Belle France.
DUT to hold up this failure of England to pay its just debts
in full as evidence that world disarmament and guaranteed
peace are the one course "to save ourselves from having later
on, to again cross the Atlantic
is even more ridiculous.
THE UNITED STATES
THE ATLANTIC TO SETTLE ANOTHER EUROPEAN WAR.
The very facta which the Journal cites, renders any such out
come altogether impossible. The
one European war, they will never fight another one, at least
not in this generation. Another European war is "out" as far
as Uncle Sam is concerned, at least for 50 years, more likely
for all time.
TplE statement that "America must know that it is for her to
battle for disarmament" has more truth in it; but not for
the reason the Journal gives. It has nothing to do with Eng
land's welching on the war debts, or the welching of any other
country.
It haa ONLY TO DO with the facts as they exist. As a
London dispatch on the first page of this same issue of the
Journal, ahows, on the very EVE of the European disarm
ament conference, England announces it will increase its naval
and air forces. With the exception of Germany every country
in Europe today, is better prepared for war, is spending more
money for armed forces on land and in the air, than before the
outbreak of the World war.
As far as Europe is concerned this disarmament conference
is going to be a flop and everyone knows it. The United States
on THIS side of the Atlantic, with war threatened from no quar
ter, will be the only power honestly in favor of disarmament,
so unless she battles for disarmament no nation will. '
Gormany of 'course, disarmed anyway, will talk about
armament equalization, but that is all she will do, "TALK".
Germany knows she can't get equality. She will merely bring
the matter up, to again convince her people that France and
England plan her destruction, and thus quell the spirit of revolt
internally against the Hitler government.
D UT the final absurdity is to link up the non-payment of war
dobts with world disarmament. Apparently the Journal
thinks these war debts should be paid in full. Well that is per
haps a rrpnr.rnl fpplino in tha TTnifnrl CtofAa
' O
But why AREN'T they paidt
Amenoa won t go to war to collect them. If America controlled
the seas, controlled the air, had a large army in perfect fighting
trim, and therefore could by force collect these debt if they
were NOT paid, they would be paid TOMORROW.
In other words, if the United States denounced disarmament.
started in to make. herself the strongest military power in the
world, and told the European nations to "come across" with
those payments or she would GO across with her guns on land,
on sea and in the air, and collect them, the payments the Jour-
nal desires would be made, and ONLY under such conditions
would they be made, or WILL they be made.
Of course this will never be

What I have to aay about adhesions
Is of general application, and X hope

their Individual

no advice I can

physician. Well, anyway, exercises or
work or use hypothetlcally prescribed
by the physician.
I want to be fair. I acknowledge
that physicians are sometimes un
skilled and hence negligent In the
application of modern principles In
practice. One still finds unfortunate
individuals carrying arms In splints
for long weeks after the broken bone
has "knit" or become united by cal
lus. This la an antiquated custom
which Is no longer followed by phy
sicians or surgeons who are well-
trained. In most cases today the
competent physician or surgeon re
moves all splints or bandages from
the broken bone 24 hours or at least
within the flrat few days after the In
Jury, to see that conditions are all
right and to begin gentle manipula
tion, which he repeats dally for the
first two weeks, massaging and mov
ing the Injured member gradually
more and more day by day. He leaves
ths splints off sltogether In three
weeks, more or less, and In most
fracturea thus treated the patlenta
are using the Injured members quite
freely by the end of the month. Only
when there are special complications
need the disability be prolonged aa
was the rule In old-time practice.
The purpose of splints Is not to
hold the broken fragments together.
The muscles, ligaments and other soft
tissues around the set of the fracture
do that. The purpose of apllnts Is
simply to. give the muscles rest.
A reasonable amount of rest Is fine
for an Injured member, that Is, where
the Injury Is severe. Ordinary slight
sprains are often best treated by Im
mediate active use of the Injured
member with a tight bandage or per
at 8 per cent. Long-term loans will
be made at 4 per oont to the banks
anld 6 per cent to the ultimate bor
rower. Under the plan the RFC will
advance an amount to Institutions
up to five times their capital.
Re-openlng Banks. In Its final
stages la the RFC plan to release over
81000,000,000 In more than 200
closed and restricted banks. To the
plan of buying preferred stock Is be
ing added the issuance of capital
notes. New York banks are expected
to lead the way following conference
this week with RFC heads. Roose

Dollar Stabilization and BrltUh Debt
Parley.
Linked together may be the re
vision of the British war debt and
the stabilization of the pound and
the dollar. British economist Sir
Frederick W. Lelth-Roes arrived In
Washington thla week to discuss
scaling down the debt with state and
treasury officials. Agreement on
British-American monetary policy Is
suggested ss a concession to reducing
the London war time obligations.
The department of commerce's Oc
tober survey of business points out
that the uncertainty of the monetary
policy haa contributed confusion
stagnation In the market for new se
curity Issues. This condition cou
pled with the flight of capital from
thla country to financial centers
abroad estimated to be in the ex
cess of a 'quarter of a billion dollars
points to the likelihood of early
stabilization. The smount of the de
valuation can be expected o be more
than the then current quotation of
the dollar on gold exchanges In order
to give commodity prices here a fur
ther boost.
NItA Revisions.
Last week's outburst of labor dis
putes In several Industries spurred
NRA officials to ths completion of
adequate conciliation machinery. The
reorganization of the New York City
local bureau to become a regional
mediation bureau under Senator
Robert F. Wagner'a national labor
mediation board la being followed
by similar setups In Industrial cen
ters throughout the country. This
conciliation machinery will be func
tioning on a nationwide seals within
a month.
Completion of all major codes, with
the exception of the retail and mo
tion picture codes, brings the NRA
Into Its third snd permanent phase

machinery will provide for the sup

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
PRICES of farm products, after de
clining steadily for mors than
three years, bit bottom laat spring
snd sines then have bssn rising. Ths
rise bss been Irregular, prices climb
ing shsrply at tlmea and then reced
ing, but In tbe main the movement
has been upward, so that present pries
levels are materially above ths ex
tremely low levels of last year.
IF ONE Is given to Jumping at con
clusions, without knowing all the
facta. It Is easy to be deceived By
these recent advancea In prices of
farm products, and fall Into the error
of thinking that the farmer Is sitting
on the world.
That ISN'T TRUE. In aplte of re
cent Improvement, .'lcee of farm
products srs still far below ths pre
war average.
LET us take the three great ata
ples, cotton, corn and wheat, as
examples.
According to the latest figures of
the department of agriculture, 'the
September average price of cotton waa
8.8 cents per pound. The average
September price of cotton from 1808
to 1814 was 11.4 cents.
The September average price of
corn thla year waa 46.5 centa per
bushel, as compared with a Septem
ber average for the five years preced
ing 1814 of 71.7 cents.
The September average price of
wheat this year was 71.1 cents per
bushel, aa compared with a September
average for the five yeara preceding
the war of 87.4 cents.
NATS, barley and rye have done
J rather better than cotton, wheat
and corn, but even In the caae of
these grains the present price Is well
below the pre-war price, as may be
seen from the following figure, the
first column of the table giving tbe
average price for September, 1833,
and tbe second column giving the
September sverage for the flv years
preceding (he war:
'Oata 32.8 38.
Barley 42.8 89.7
Bye 81.4 72.8
IN THE CASE of meat animals, the
present price situation 1 even
worse. In the following table the first
column gives the average price for
September of this year and the sec
ond the average September price for
the five yeara before the war:
Hogs - 3.73 7.81
Beef cattle 8.81 8.35
Veal calvea 06 7.03
Lambs 5.08 5.83
Lambs. It Is apparent from this
table, are doing better than any other
meat animals In the way of price.
-vNE more table will be of Interest.
J the first column again showing
the average price In September of
this year and the second tbe Septem
ber average for the five pre-war yeara:
Eggs (doz.) 18.8 30.8
Butter (lb.)
21.1
18.6
26.8
25.8
Butterfat (lb.)
npHE denartment of agriculture pre
1 pares an Index ahowlng tbe ratio
of prices received by the farmer to
the prices he pays that Is to say,
what he geta In exchange for what
he produces. ,
In September of this yssr, this In
dex number stood at 60, which means
that In exchange for what he pro
duces ths farmer la getting only 60
per cent as much of WHAT HE CON
SUMES aa he got In the five years
preceding the war.
In other words, he Is 40 per oent
worse off than before the war.
SO DON'T let yourself get the Idea
that the farmer la riding the wave.
He ISN'T not yet, anyway. He atlll
has a long way to go before be gets
back to where he was before the wsr.
te
IN THE price picture here presented,
which Is not a psrtleulsrly alluring
picture, there art three outstanding
exceptions to the general rule of lower
prices now than before the war. These
exceptions are potatoea, wool and
lambs. In ths following table the
September price for this year la given
In the first column snd ths average
September price for the five yeara
preceding the war In the second
column:
Potatoea (100 lbs.). 1.01 .748
Wool (lb.) . .17$
Lambs (100 lbs.) J .08 8 SS
Both potatoes and wool, you see, are
selling ABOVE the pre-war five-year
average, and lambs at not much
under.

Island for lunch at an admirable tar-
em with lump
gild mirrors, red
plush furniture
and glass door
knobs. The sun
coming out, M

walked far down
a country lane.

I did not pay, outrageous. Afterward
driving past the Rockefeller cathedral
as the carillon chimed. .
Getting comfortable in bed, I be
gan to read an accumulation of news
papers and periodicals. For years I
have decried war with Japan as prop
aganda of Jlngolst. But now firmly
believe such a set-to Is more than
vague probability and soon. 8uperb

Thla morning I breakfasted alone
and wrote 1,000 words. Earl Carroll
came by. He arrived at 10:35 and left
at 11. He Is resolved not to invite
critics to his threatrloal productions
In the future. He thinks they write
merely for acclaim of their own circle.
I did not try to dissuade him.
Hubert Kelly, a young man of the
Kansas City Star, came In this morn
ing to interview me. He appeared a
bright fellow and la on a roaming as
signment. I had a feeling, as after all
questioning, I talked too much. One
of the best Jobs of random reporting
I've often thought waa that done by
Julian Street for Collier's about 25
years ago. Goodlsh subjects the way
through.
This afternoon I visited a publisher
and pocketing an advance, articled to
turn out s book "New York and Its
Celebretles." Inquiring If anything In
especial was to be stressed, he gener

I called at Leon Oordon'a studio In
the Beaux Arts. A young lady who
ran the lift and he had gons to
Carlsbad. So I tucked a card under
his door with the scribble: "I have
long wanted to grow old ao I could
go to Carlsbad."
Joining M. in a reception room of
the Waldorf we went around the cor
ner to a tea from which Mrs. Patrick
Campbell was sweeping to a tar, Im
periously. Someone recalled her flare
up with Shaw during a rehearsal of
Pygmalion. An argument and the
famous vegetarian became shirty.
'"You are a horrible fellow," cried
Mrs. Pat. 'One day you'll eat beefsteak
and then Heaven protect all women."
It was recorded Shaw flamed red to
the roots of his hair.
There were at this tea four acquain
tances divorced and re-married alnoe
we saw them last. AU seemed flogging
themselves Into pseudo-gaiety with
cocktails. A chanteuse warbled a put
rid thing. I Jockeyed Maybelle Olwell
Into a corner for engaging talk, and
save for thla Interlude altogether a
beefy time and pleased when people
started to go.
On way home M. took me In hand
about my Incessant grumbling, but
we ran Into a fellow who owes me
quite a sum snd this furnished such
opportunity to change the aubject. I
was glad to see him. Before 'taking n

Lord, I thought. If one could but re
write a piece after seeing It In print.
But I detest tidying a work onoe done.
Reading "Richard Harding Davis. His
