Coopr maehS11pe00h.Th sane views have been exlre:-se din timies by notable m11en1 Since tieni. The view that these men take is not that the dlebts shoulid be cancelled from cIar itable reasons, but because in tilie long rn the I'nit4edt States would profit -imore iy their eaniellation tian it Would by ain insistani(e on their pay mient. Theijy onedthat ther ,e is 1110re to he galin ed by a retn 011,1 to nor Mal conditions in interliational finane os than thereo ld be in rolon1 gi ng the C--resent agoly of dep'1ressonl bV in sisting on colleCting the debts owed ts. It is safe to say that there are Ino) other things contributing so nuch now to world depression as the debts hang ing over tihe IEturopeanl countries, tihe, interest charges they have to meet an(d the heavy ex'penditures they are still making for armaments. In a discus sion of cancellation of debts woIl(l naturally come the (luestion of ds armament of European countries. Should the weight of debt be removed and the cost of military establish mlents wiped out, there is no question but that trade conditions would re turn to such a volume that t his .oiuntry ,would profit enormou sly. No less an authoritv than The Sat uIrday IEvening Post has recently ex liressed tliese views. Like the nain (Ilestion itself, its- views are well worth considering and we -print them I part as follows: The two most perilous International 1 eibarrassments of the I)resent day are the grotesque size of the war debts and indlemnities, and the grotesque tc(ost of the military and naval estabi c ishments which nations once rich but now~ impioverished are comipelled by 'thg~ir fears or byv their governments to aiintain. If all .armaments, ,war debts and indieminities could le sim -ultaneously redtuced -by -initernational agr eement credit wouldh 110 douubt re vive, t radeI would improve, and hothI the lnited States and Great Birihain might gain far more in real wealth than they wvould lose by paper sacri lices. But a dhownward revision of legal debts and legal ind9mnlties can not he just ified if the remiissions madec by onfe country to another are to lie il.ed by that other coulntry for thle mlainltenance or extension .of amrma meals. If wiping the slate wvould wipe out the pirobabhility of fuiture wars it would be (heal) at the price. Yet, even though at conceluision cannilot lbe reached at present, there is everything to he said for puitih is llcussion. it is a healthy sign t hat thme press is t ecmning wvith conltroversi~il Ifeters on the sub jeet of war debts and indemlnities. * * * * ' ** * * * * * * * *1 * * 3i'i.
