DEBTS OF HONOR.
Goldsboro News. I
We hare been told by several ofl
our continental friends that the war
debts they incurred were not com
mercial transactions. / It is quite
trua; they were not. As a matter
of business our government would
have lent them nothing; individuals
would have lent them a few hundred
| millions, but nothing like the sum J
1 they borrowed. The money was loaned j
to save fee lives of the borrowers, i
without security and with the cer
tainty that if Germany won the debts
would never be paid, and if the allies
won it was not certain that repay
ment would be possible.
These war debts are not commer
cial loans, but debts of honor, and be
tween gentlemen a debt of honor is
paid whether commercial obligations
can be settled or not. We should expect
nations that incurred debts of honor
to us, who could not have survived MSe
war but for our financial as well as
military assistance, to strain every
nerve to pay as much as they could.
We should have expected them to
make offers to pay without waiting
to be dunned.
We should not have expected them
to set up claims that they owed us
nothing because the debts were debts
of honor instead of commercial obli
gations. We should not have ex
pected them to beg that the principal •
be shaved and the interest made very
low —lower than the interest our gov
ernment is paying on the money bor
rowed for them —and payments of any
sort be deferred for decade. Ap
parently our debtors, unofficially, did
not wish to pay and were determined
to pay as little as possible, and there
were some indications that they paid
only because they wanted to borrow
money here and they could hardly ex
pect to get more money if they re
pudiated what they had already bor
rowed.
Well, perhaps nations are not gen
tlemen and do not know anything
about debts of honor, but it is rather
disconcerting to have this view of the
matter pressed upon us. At any rate,
England and some of the smaller na
tions hjive funded their obligations
to ns, and now Belgium settles on the
basis of the terms of the Versailles
treaty, which this country did not rati
fy! Our government felt fee obli
gations of honor where there was no
contract. It was- a debt of honor an
our part.
Women Drivers Defended.
lirs. C. B. Lacltie of Pine- Mount,
Fla-, defends her sex from mean eU'lt
ic-ipm that has been invited from men -
1 by the act of the America n Auto mb- |
bile Association declaring women bet- (
ter auto drivers than the opposite sex. J
She answers some of the criticisms (
thus; (
“I presume women drive from the
1 back sent for the same reason that (
men sit in the back seat and criticize 1
every move their wives make while ]
driving." i
"I haven't found women the only J
road hogs: In fact, I've been driven ]
■ out of the road by more malo speed (
, maniacs in a day than by women in aj ]
t week. ( Neither are women the only i
gesticulators. I followed a Ford con- 1
taining two men, whose driver kept ]
me guessing for several miles. I
“I presume women like to eat while (
. driving for the same reason men do. 1
, They are both guilty."
“I know a great many women who !
can change a tire quickly. I imagine
any timidity is from fear of. soiling
' the dress that husbands hate so to
buy.
“There are far more smash-ups and
dented fenders caused by 'lighted'
males than hy 'delighted' females."
> “I have loaned gasoline to several
f men. but never hnd to render that
service to a woman.
“Perhaps the women know that
* traffic policemen fear them. Y'ou nev
* er fear anything that is afraid of you.
8 “Better mnke the horn sound like
a fire engine than not use it at all,
like many men I know of who ignore
traffic regulations, even to turning
e around in front of you with no warn
l' ing wntever.
8 “I haven’t noticed that the error in
s shifting gears is solely_a woman's
* trait.
1 “Men can't expect to have a mou- -
n opoly on all the fools; it's enough
a that they have the majority of them."
The Slow Mills and the Markets, i
Charlotte Observer. ,
The textile people in the piedmont
belt are more interested just now iu
the state of electric power than they
are in the state of the market, for,
if the current becomes much weaker, i
market conditions will have but small
interest for them. Nevertheless, it
is well to know how the market is
faring in this season of enforced cur- i
tailment of production in the South.!
Trading seems quiet, as well as pro
duction. The Textile World reports
that an improved tone in many classes
of finished goods for fall is well main
tained. Leading commission house
merchants look forward to a steady
fall business with slow but consistent I
improvement in general business. The
government cotton report of August
15th showing a condition of 82 per I
cent of normal and an indicated yield |
of 18.900,000 bales, was in line with ]
general expectations in the trade. It
has made no difference one way or
the other in the goods market, and
very slight reductions have taken place
in fee raw material.
The Textile World considers i.t safe
to predict that this year’s cotton crop
will be in excess of 14,000,000 bales,
inasmuch as the government has con
sistently underestimated during recent
years. Confidence is growing, how
ever, in the relative stability of raw
material prices at approximately pres
ent levels. There seems no likeli
hood of radical fluctuations in either
direction.

Boys and girls need heartier breakfasts
now—especially if they carry a cold
lunch. Hot cereal, eggs or bacon, stew
ed fruit with graham bread toast, and
milk or cocoa is none too much. If the
children come home for luncheon, don’t
neglect to prepare at least one warm dish
—soup or a vegetable or baked dish hot
from the oven.
Provide good light for evening les
sons. Gas light is mellowest and most

the lights with new mantles. A study
lamp is also a good investment.
