Something of ihe magnitude ol th task that is bffort the economic conference loon to open it Genoa may be gathered from one or two little news Item.. One tells of the announcement from Hungary that it can not carry ut be reparation. stiigned without fore.g loan. ,t the nine time Kiting up the remarkable claim that Jt obligation ha disappeared because it did not comply with the demand, within the i time .necified. Another U that the German flbat.ng debt on March 20 wa. 272.000.000,000 mark., sn increase within one year of 106.500.000 000 mark.. hile the circulation of the ReiCh.bank had risen W.OOO marks, an increase during March of 7767.814.000 mark. The German funded debt . A. j io-i w 90.000.000.000 marks. h. to.,1 of debt to 362.000.000000 marks or well above the estimated value ofall , the wealth of Germany, which i. placed at W.

It is not easy for Amer icans to comprehend the significance of the.se fig ure.. One thing must be clear to all. The process can not long be continued, or the cur rency of France and Germany will lose its mean ing as completely as has that of Russia. What the conference may do in dealing with the financial jugglery that has, followed the war is not sug gested by any discussion so far presented. In ternal obligations, it has been hinted, will be treated after the fashion of the French revolu tionists in dealing with the "assignats" and "man dats." These just evaporated, after being re pudiated by the government, and the redistribu tion of wealth in France was made complete by process far fr6m pretty. Reduction of expenditures, with balanced bud- get., is recommended to all European countries. It i. th ,way "back to Normalcy," which means there as here a return to a sound economical basis. The United States is not .unwilling to aid Europe, in reasonable efforts to restore its affairs to a healthy condition. Declining to enter the Genoa gathering, our government has retained its friendly attitude and interest in all the nation, that will assemble there, but has left to thenvthe actual control of their own affairs. It is vital to the future of civilization that our own credit be maintained, and that European nations be lifted from the morass into which they are plunged. That process requires full and complete reor ganization of the: economic and political pro grams of the several nations, and when they have agreed as to what they are willing to do in this direction, it will be time for America to act. Easter Time in the Near East. America has seen, and that not so long ago. drouth stricken families fleeing )V covered -wagons to lands more promising. This is the nearest we have come to conditions that exist today in large areas of eastern Europe. The imagination' of America fails to comprehend the black misery of those regions, although the peo ple here have given more generously than have hA anv other country. . 1 It was only a year ago that China had to be j fed by our aid. Now it is Russia and Armenia. This ancient land, home of a Christian race, has been for many years a white chip in the diplomatic game between Turkey and the imperr ialistic nations of Europe. Massacre after mas sacre was allowed simply because of political ' policy, and today the Armenians once more hive been abandoned. , It is of no avail for Americans . having financial or sentimental tie. in Armenia to urge that the United States adopt this terri tory, for expansion of thi. sort is counter to our democratic tradition. But there is yet much that can be done to lift these people out of their misery." '. - , ' ' , '' - ' The Literary Digest, in a moving appeal for the live, of the children of the Near East, an nounces that if American contributions fail thou- sands will die. Already the Near East Relief has had to reduce its expenditures one-fourth. "Revoke the cruel sentence!" the magazine urges, "Stop the order to reduce relief work 25 per ; cent! Thank God it is in your power at this Easter time to give life in place of death, health in place of . sickness, laughter in place of tears. You can speak, the word of resurrection which will call back some" little child from the dark valley cf shadow and flood its new life with sun shine. 1 . tert that wint of hit fair i large lute nude happy mmiage atter serving their .entente, The cynic ould ay that the mtrhnonil yoke ould eeni easy after feeling tht of Iht U.

V mut iliow' the po.ihilin of making money in the shipping huinn if we are to get ih public to inmt in it. Chairman Uiker of Shipping Board to House Committee. That is Just what the American people sre trjing to find out. AH the publie know., even in a detailed way, i. that huge sum. of money have gone into the project of building up a mer chant marine with help from the government, and a. yet no end appear.. A billion and a half of expenditure for .hip jard. and .hip. wa. charged off as war expense; st leatt that much more ha. been carried over to the profit and lot. account; many vessel, are riding idly at anchor, no em ployment appearing for them, and now the chair man of the board i. before the committee, asking authority to expend more money. In .all the mare of accounting in which the government', venture into .hipping i. enveloped, nothing is definite beyond the fact that the mil Con, that have been poured into it are lost, .o far as returns art concerned. The one hope i. that existing vessel may be employed in the car rying trade, and either under publie or private management restore the American jntrchant marine. Even this, according to the chairman, it now problematical. Hi. reference to getting the public to invest in the industry undoubtedly mean, that the vessels-ultimately are to be trans ferred to private ownership. That, as The Bee sees it, is the purpose of the subsidy suggested by the president. Nothing could be more desirable than to have the foreign commerce Of the United State, car ried on American bottoms and under the Ameri can flag. No explanation ever offered ha. en tirely explained why thi. is not done. With ship, available, and men ready to man them, a way should be found to give' the public the bemrt of vessels it already has paid for, but Mr. Lasker does not point tt out. The proposed subsidy is not popular, nor do the people especially relish the thought that the whole question is being manipulated in interest of certain great combines whose control of the ocean-carrying trade is of long standing. More light is needed on the ship ping board's activities. Books to Read on Taxation. The public treasury never pays out a dollar that it has not first taken away from some citi een. That Scotchman who inquired where he could find a "reasonable" postoffice has few equals tor thrift among a population that considers a million-dollar appropriation by congress as mere chicken feed. Those who are hard hit by taxation should not strike back wildly, but consider the matter carefully in all its aspects. Fublic expenditures must be scrutinized, but the methods of distribut ing the burden and raising the revenue are of al most equal importance. There is no book giving comprehensive treat ment to taxation in the United States. However, there are excellent special treatises that earnest citizen, might well consult. If one wishes to lead up on taxation, these are some of the books to which he might refer: ' Plehn. "Introduction to Public Finance." Seligmtn. "Essays in Taxation." "Proceedings of the National Tax Associa tion." An annual publication containing the freshest and best material on the problems of state and local taxation. 1907-1921. Bulletins of the National Tax association. Reports of various state tax commissions. The biennial reports of the Minnesota Tax commission are among the best from the prac tical point of view. The Wisconsin reports also are good. The report of the Nebraska special commission on taxation and revenue, 1914, may be consulted for information on our own state. In addition to these are works of a more spe cial nature, such as Seligman's "The Income Tax," K. K. McKennan's "Income Taxation," Max West pn inheritance taxes, and F. C. Howe on internal rtvenue taxes. , , Facts are the greatest need of the taxpayer. Through them is the only real hope of lightening his lot. ' Very few public men have met their responsibility by any study along these lints, and it is accordingly up to the men and women that form their constituency. . '. Love Laughs at Turnkeys. The story of budding romance in a Delaware workhouse proves anew that stone walls do not a prison make, nor irOn bar. a cage. Material for a farce abounds in the account of happening. there pickpockets in love with shoplifters, j vagrants sighing with affection for lady bootleg ger, and flinty-hearted kleptomaniacs rebuffing the Attention, of tender stickop men. Love mis sive, were hidden in pies and in clothing. The trustie were bribed to carry notes until they had time for little else, and then the warden es tablished a jail postoffice and cfnsorsfcip through which all vow. of affection must pass. There are some pretty girls in the prison, the warden points out, and it is as natural for senti ment to nj-w there as out in the open. He even How to Answer Thomas Blanton. ; If Represenative Garner and other congress men from Texas are sincere in their abhorrence of Representative Thomas Lindsley Blanton, it might' not be out of place for them to transfer their operations against him from the House of Representatives to the Seventeenth Texas dis trict. Mr. Blanton may be all the varieties of liar catalogued by the indignant representatives, from his state; he may be unlovely in his every aspect, but he is the choice of the democratic party in his district, and at the election in 1920 he received the highest vote cast for arry candi date on the ticket. His standing in the congress is indicated by the fact that he was within a sin gle vote of being expelled; unless these things be brought home to his constituents they will prob ably continue to return him. j Therefore, the proper forum in which to call him a liar would seem to be at Abilene, his home town, rather than in Washington. Strange how little is heard of the long heralded Brown, report on governmental reor ganization. Among the recommendations is one that the government buy up and control all liquor now in bond and dispense it. The state ment is made that a handsome profit could be made for the government within a year on this, through centralized storage and lowered cost of guarding the precious stuff. The proposed de partment of public welfare would direct the task of dispensing alcohol for medicinal purposes. "Shoot to kill" has often been the charge to the police, with no appreciable effect on the crime wave. What might be more to the point would be to instruct the policemen how to shoot to hit . Rose Coghlan now knows that the human heart still throbs with sympathy for the un fortunate, however indifferent it may seem at times. Uncle Sam's . bank roll continues to attract much attention.

PHILO. Architectural J.zz. .Why shouldn't a "city beautiful" come down from the realm of dreamland into the practical idealism that converts beauty into a commercial asset? The science of architectire Ts like Greek to a layman. But the architects have a multitude of different ideals and opinions. The only hope for 4 real "city beautiful" is to find some coherent architectural standards and stick to them. Architectural jazz is just as ephemeral, as r.oisy aftd as discordant as the jargon of sounds that profane the name of music. Yet every American city has lapses from the canons of good taste" in almost every block of (Swellings. Business architecture has suffered less, because the modern skyscraper era sacri ficed everything else to utility. Now that real architecture again shows some signs of renais sance in business structures there may be more danger ahead. Chicago Daily Journal. A Victorian Legacy.

These atudlea ahow Juat how much fresh air will leak through a crack one-quarter Inch wide and two feet long on the. front side of a car run-nlp-r 40 miles an hour. The ordinary room takes in fresh air because of the heat inside as compared with the outside and be cause of the wind. Tn the case Of a car to these two factors, the im pact of the swiftlv moving car against the air Is added aa an Im portant factor. Therefore, getting enough air Into the car Is an easy matter. The sleeping car people have made extensive scientific experiments on how much air is taken In through All kinds of noenlnes at all kinds of locations, with all kinds Of weather Conditions, and at all rates of speed. They have experimented on air In takes with relation of intake of dust and cinders, on temperature and air movementa inside tha car. Ther may be other people who lnow aa much about the use of fan to distribute heat in the winter and to Increase comfort in summer, but no one else employs them so much or ao well. These experiments show the ad vantage of lower temperature in winter and more air movement than the cars have, hut the porter is com pelled to satisfy his passengers a wall as he can, and some people want a winter temperature well above 70, and draft cranks sense and kick about very mild air currents. The company would like to main tain a lower temperature, of course, and It would have no objection to the draft and uneven temperature which science says are best for health.
