TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1921. Business conditions are a bit unsettled, and we hear much about retrenchment and economy. It is well to remember the story of tlie man who had a horse und decided to curtail his feed so as to economize. He began by taking out one ear of corn at a feed, that is, he gave the horse one var less each day, and soon had the horse down to one ear a day. All went veil until one morning the man went out to the stable and found his horse d"ad. Yoa can curtail business, cut down expense, e..rry a smaller stock and vhus re Jute the outgo. But it is well to remember that beyond a certain point you cannot go, unless yo. intend to kill your bus;..ess. We nee., to apply saTe, sane column sense to our problems, but we do not need t? kill the goose that lays the gulden egg. The waste can be stopped. Eac.i department can be ke\ed up a bi . More strict supervision can be giver and a general policy of aggressivencs. can be instituted. The way to do bus ine&a i? In Hn Kncinooo Riiemnc hates a quitter. It has all along seemed to us a silly proposition that this government cancel, in whole or .part, the debts owe J us.by European nations. But it begin? to appear that the European nations, practically every one of them is bankrupt. The destruction that has come upon them seems to be almost utter ruin. If their conditions is as bad a it begins to appear, we could well afford to settle with them at fifty cent* on the dollar, or even less. This no' through any altruistic motive hut because it may be the best terms \v may hope to obtain. If they cannot pay, why keep up the farce of demanding full payment? If there ino probability that they will be able to pay in the future, why go on piling up interest? If, having cancelled the debts, in whole or in part, will enable these nations to begin to do bus iness with us, that would he wort!, much to us, probably more than the payment of the debts they owe us. I:; that case, it would be well to remit in part or the whole, their debts to us. Our great leaders in finance and worl i commerce should know what is best to do.

C., under the national motor vcicle theft act, approved October 19. 919. This is declared to be the first uling of an appellate court on this iw, and in that respect the opinion * cf far-reaching importance in moor car circles. The decision was in the case of he United States against C. L. Kelly, nd was harried to the circuit court y the defendant upon his conviction, he section of the law under which e was convicted was No. 3, and is as allows: "That whoever shall transport or ause to be 1 ransportated in interstate r foreign commerce a motor bchile, knowing the same to have been toln, shall be punished by a fine f not more than $5,000 or by imrisonment for not more than five oars, or both." "Wo need not comment upon this vidence. In our judgment it was learly sufficient to make a case for he jury to determine whether dendant bought and transported the ar in question, "knowing the same 3 have been stolen," and the trial ourt, therefore, did not err In reusing to direct a verdict in his favor or lack of proof of guilty knowldge. Was the car transported "In iterstato commerce?" That the act nder review was intended to cover uch a case as is here disclosed ons to us not doubtful. "We perceive no reason, constituonal or other, why congress may not rol ihit the interstate transportation f motor vehicles known to have been tolen. "The 'hnrmful results,' obvious and equently occurring, of transporting .olen motor vehicles from one state > another can be prevented only by rohibiting altogether thir interstate ansportation, and such prohibition , therefore, a valid exercise of the >wer invested in the congress.
