PXGE EIGHT AMERICA FACING -MORAL ISSUE IS . ECONOMISTS VIEW Sir Josiah Stamp Says Ital ian Action Calls for Pro test From Whole World Clear Issue for League BT StB JOHIAH STAMP Economist and Director of the Ban of England. (Written for the Associated Press.) LONDON, Oct. . (Pb-America, to day Is facing the biggest moral Issue of her history in view of the grave turn of events In the international eltuatlon. It la the difference between active participation In measures necessary to aave the world and merely a state of letting thlnga take their own course, perhaps profiting by them for a time. Definite Situation. If Italy Intended to go to war It la aa well the eltuatlon la now def inite. We are no longer dealing with a hypothesis. The situation la- def inite In a way that enables the world to Judge very simply and clearly the Issues involved. It la not clouded by any doubts about Intentions or justification. Any nation which signed the Kel logg pact and has solemnly under taken not to use war as a weapon of force for the settlement of dlaputes, and breaks that undertaking, faces protest from the whole world. This gives the league a clear Issue, though there' may not immediately bo a clear program for dealing with It. Obviously any action which league members may take to ahow their die approval and prevent Italy from be ing assisted will depend on the ex tent to which non-leogue nations re mise the Jeopardy to the world and behave sympathetically Non-league nations may not Join In actual formal acts of the league, but if they allow their Individuals to step in and take personal advan tage of the eoonomle situation so created they will be acting not only against the Interests of the league but their own interests in the civil isation to atond. Moral Issue Drawn. America could be only cynically in different at the price of Europe In ruins end Europe In rulna oan never be of Interest to America. The moral lasue from America la the difference between active partici pation in measuros necessary to lave the world end a state of letting things slide. The recont pronouncement of her statesmen, particularly Prealdent Fontwvelt'a pronouncement Saturday and the prompt action of the Amer ican government in connection with the Ethiopian oil concession, Indicate Amcrca knowa where the Intereata of the whole world He and la moving rapidly in the direction I have Indi cated not allowing her individuals to counteract the league's acton.

P n divided opinion the Oregon up re me court Tuesday upheld the lower court of Multnomah county In a verdict or $1,500 punitive damages against the Or&ybar Electric company and Its credit manager, A. B. Young, tor al leged mallclou conversion of goods amounting to 910.16 to cover an In debtedness of Prank J. McCarthy. The suit was brought by McCarthy Against the two defendants and the General Electric company. In the majority opinion written by Justice Harry Belt, the latter firm was elim inated from payment of the damages because It had taken no part In the conversion. The opinion stated McCarthy, who operated a small electric supply store, had been In arrears on1 a consign ment for lamps purchased from the Oraybar firm. During McCarthy's absence the credit manager removed goods on the shelves of the McCarthy storo to settle the bill. The clerk In the store protested, but the goods were taken and credit given McCarthy. The lower court, presided over by Judge Louis P. Hewitt, Awarded a 1,600 punitive damages verdict to the plaintiff. Belt wrote: "The evidence clearly shows conversion. It was an unlaw ful exercise of dominion over the property of the plaintiff. To hold that a creditor may go Into a place of business, In the absence of the owner, take goods from the shelves, and apply the value thoreof to an overdue Indebtedness, without the knowledge of the owner, would Indeed create a dangerous precedent. We cannot sanction such a method of collection." TIMBER SALE SLATED BY U. S.
