TROOPS TO BE SENT
BY GOVERNMENT
The HeTftiaii CoiproMlse' lit purely
fhe problems is reached prior to the
expiration of the six-months' period,
- the Conditions in Eurois- will lie infin
itely worst.
"ITrance and Belgium liase their en
tire program of reconstruction and re
habilitation and the return of ex
change lo nn approximate nor mill stat
us, upon German reimrntton payments.
They say 'Germany must juiy.'
-Germany, with its gold and secur
ities of value out of the country, with
apparent financial collapse, but with
an almost frenzied agriciilutral and In
dustrial activity in production, bold
ly claims that the Treaty of Versailles
must he amended that Germany niay
lx fuee to compete economically and
commercially with other countries of
the world and claims that -Germany
cannot pay anything like the sum de
manded, nor at all until she is free
to export.' .
"Holland as a neutral observer,
agrees that Germany cannot pay and
plainly says that the economic future
of Holland is bound up with the fate
of Germany. They, say, if Germany
succeeds, Hollnnd will prosper, if Ger
lnnny fails, Hollnnd will suffer.
"Italy has more nearly balanced her
budget and England has balanced
hers. , These nations div not maintain
that their economic future is depend
ent upon German reparations. How
ever, both mil ions have their heavy
exterior debts and both expect Ger
many tci pay an adequate amount.
"If a settlement, is reached, and a
aettlenient must lie reached If the
peace of the world is to be restored
and guaranteed, then two oasic consul
orations must be understood and ac
cepted, namely :
" '11. American cannot cancel tire
debts of the nations but all nations
must ultimately iiay their orligations
with' dignity and honor.
" 2. The world war is ended and
while Late and anger is still In the
. hearts ,of many, Jthe settlements be
tween nations formerly belligerent
must bo on a liasis of mutual respect
and consideration.'
"Two words contain the solution of
the world's problems in the internation
al settlement in this hour of unhappy
ami chaotic uncertainty. They are

no nation nsk for its debts to be for
given but only for time and patient
consideration. Tbe former Allies must
pav the United States. Germany must

ments to the Treaty of Versailles must
lie Agreed upon, giving Germany the
orttiortunltv of free competition eco
nomicnlly with all nations and France
Slid Germany must have guaranties of
freedom from molestation ami military
attack.
If there was adequate reason for a
six-mouths' moratorium there will lie
greater reason for a longer extension
at the expiration of the period. A mor

definite period must lie accepted. If

back and the referee called the ba.l
dead on the one font line. On the
next pi.iy Captain Rldenhoiir dived
over the line for about n four yard
gain, but was called back when the
referee ruled that he fend hurdled.
Firing mad. -l'eanut again called him
self back and tore through the line,
like a double header freight train and
plai-ed the hall across for n touchdown.
The third touchdown came as a result
of a pass to Cleaver who carried it
for twenty yards aided by beautiful
interference by Hoover. .
Captain Hldenhour, angered by the
referee's decision, was unable to i-on-trol
himself sufficiently to allow his
educated toe to place the oval lietween
the imsts, so after missing the first
two, attempted a pas on the third try.

agree to reduce the Interest rate low

and amortize the loan of ten billion
dollars nnd thus with the payment of
the interest and amortization, annual

It is evident that twenty-five years is
altogether too brief a period to
amortize the debts.

Chicago, Nov. 14. To -be a: inen.
ber of the Ku Klux Klan in Illinois,
and part.cularly in Chicago, these day
is to invite social ostracism and busi
ness disaster. The fact is slowly nut
surely being driven into the minds of
the 50,000 or so members of the secret
organization in and around this city.
The opposition to the Ku Klux is
wel organized, persistent and un
relenting. In a city in which the
foreign born Todominates, in wh e'l
the negro population alone is in ex
cess of 110.C00, in which the Mem
bers of the Roman Catholic Church
number approximately 1,200,000 tnd
the Jews 125,000 or more, it is not
surprising that there is deep-rooie.l
diBlflvP or the Ku Klax Klan and th
forclgrt-bitnas, .b-!hwW'.i ihe. Jew
and the negro constitute a powerfi I
ion to the Kin Klux Wan and ari
a unit in opposition ti it.
As a conseqm nee Chicago is wit
nessing some curious happenings. On 3
judge refuses to permit members c
the Klan to serve as jurors in hi
court, business men known! to b
members of the organization are leln
boycotted, and one of the big banks
is los ug 'business because some of
its directors and officials are susp cr
ed nf affiliation with the Klan.
So novei-ful is the wave of rese't'
ment that within the last few week !
the President of another bank, one t ?
Chicago's largest financial instl v
tions, was forced to resign when nit
name was listed as a member of -bv
Klan by a periodica' which is the t
cial organ of the anti Klan organlza
t on. This publication beirs the na Q i
of "Tolerance," arid is the o'.'fc 1 1
