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.

DEBTOR WINS SUIT
T
SALEM, Oct. 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."
