European Debt
Conider the $11,600,000,000 debt
owed us by Europe. I apeak of thi
because of England' latest move in
the propaganda for cancellation
Everyone should familiarize himself
with the history of the loaning ot
tin trtmrndou turn ot money, re
cse every one of our citizen, to
day, is paying his share of the in
terest ana sinking tuna inereon,
amounting to a total of about $600,
000,000 annually, or as much a it
formerly cost to run this gpvernment
one vrar.
"When we entered the war, con
gress authorized the administration
to loan $10,000,000,000 to our asso
ciate in the war. each government
to exchange for the money afforded,
it obligations bearing interest at the
rate of our Liberty bonds. Wa this
law followed? No. Money wa
loaned without the exchange of
bonds it was loaned practically up
on the I. O. U't. of ambassador.
"J. P, Morgan k Co. loaned money
to the tame countrie during the
war, and the transaction were
handled in a business-like manner.
No money wa afforded until bond
were executed and delivered, and the
coupon of the bonds issued by J.
P. Morgan & Co. have been paid as
they have fallen due; likewise, the
principal ot the Morgan loans nas
been paid, with the exception, as re
cently announced by that banking
house, of only about $800,000,000.
"Again, of this $10,000,000,000. on
ly about $8,000,000,000 had been
loaned up to the . time of the
armistice. But the administration
continued loaning that money until
it was practically gone.' Les than
$500,000,000 of .interest ha been col
lected on this indebtedness, leaving
about $1,600,000,000 interest due and
unpaid. Now, the debt, with inter
est, amounts to in the neighborhood
of $11,600,000,000.
"All suggestions for the cancella
tion of this great debt are apparent
ly coming from the English gov
ernment. What our former associ
ate want u la da it tritely summed
up in t Treasury department mem
orandum a follows; . "While Ihe al
lies have never bluntly to titled,
the ir policy eem to be to make tier
many indemnify them for having
started the Mar and to make ut in
demmfy them for tot having enter
ed the wr sooner,"
"Should th American people agree
to cancellation? The advantage to
Great Kntain will be tremendous.
Such trntclion would net Great
Hniain little or no lot whatever,
but it would mean a net lot to the
United State of n amount equal
to at lent one-half of our present
debt, about $H.0iN),ui)0,0ii0. Inci
dentally, it would mean a tremendous
(tin to Grrtt Uritain. The United
State today i the great creditor na
tion, o( the world a porition occu
pied by isritam before the war. Hy
tht cancellation of thi debt, the
United Slates would lose thi posi
lion, it being recovered by Great
uritain.
"tins dept equal $1(10 for every
man, woman, child and baby, that
we loaned; to France, Italy and Eng
land. The interest and unking fund
on these loan that you and I art
aying today amount to nearly S60U,
ajO.OOQ a year, and form a part of
the taxe that you and I are com
plaining of today. If we pay it off
at the rate wt paid the civil war
debt, the total, with interest, will
probably come nearer $2(K) for every
man, woman, child and baby in the
United Mate today.
" There are 4 7 person to a fam
ily in Nebraska; if we don't collect
thi debt, each family of today and
their decendant will have to pay
more than $'AX) as their share-of thi
transaction. I believe that we ihould
be just, fair and generous to Eng
land and trance and the other na
tions; but, I also believe we cfiould
treat thi matter a a business trans-
atlion and ultimately collect every
dollar.

Railroad Situation.
"There was a time when there was
competition in railroad rates. ' It
was then that we rode for 2 cents a

cost two cars of corn to ship three

the case, but the possibility of com
petition in railroad rales came to an
