Atlantic City,' Oct. 24,-Frnncc Is
tottr billion dollars in debt. Her ex
penditure next year will come to four
billion one hundred million dollars, ex
ceeding her best normal. tax return by
one billion ono hundred fifty million
'dollars.
To make up tbo difference, she will
have to increase her taxes by 50 per
cent.
And yet "victory glres her renewed
force."
','Tho future opens up radiant before
hep in this rejuvenated -world wherein
she is determined to retain her place.
Rue still possesses her soft sklco. lior
fertile soil and her valiant people."
Thus Baron du Marais, vice prcs
"ident of the French mission nnd direc
tor of tho famous ''Credit l.ynnais."
boldly faced the present and confidently
predicted the future, of his, country,
upeaklng at the morning session of the
international trade confercneo at the
"JlllUon Dollar Pier.
Baron du Marais, before an audience
of 3000 American business meti nnd
the representatives of Kuropean com
merce and manufacture, entered into a
lengthy exposition of 1'renrh fiuanecs.
He built his optimistic plan of restora
tion and new growth at home on n
foundation of American financial aid.
lie proposed, as a plan acceptable to
Franco for the financing of her vnt
projects, the issuance of Trench securi
ties .on the American money market.
tVcncIi Securities on U. S. 'Market
"During the war," he said, "credits
were obtained in the form of loans from
government to government. It is not
no to us to say whether it would not
bo wise to employ Bimilnr methods for
limited quantities in specific cases, as,
for instance, in supplying France with
foodstuffs nnd raw muterinls, which
would be imported under the control
of tho French Government during the
period of reconstruction.
"To issuo French securities on the
American market would be the best
method, beyond all doubt, of providing
France with the means of payment she
Tequircs. These securities could be
issued either straight to the public or
through the intermediary of American
corporations that could issue their own
'bonds against foreign securities which
thev could keep as collateral."
Baron du Marais explained that the
interest on the French public debt would
come to J2.000.0QO.OOO annually. Civ
ilian expenditures for 1920, he put at
$000,000,000; military nnd naval ex
penditures nt 8400,000,000 ; pensions at
$SOO,000,000.
1920 Resources Increasing
Resources of 1010 he estimated at .?'-'.-000,000.000.
For 1020 he added to this
sum $400,000,000 as the share of the
devastated areas, based on n pre-war
eas, oasca on n pre-war
.000,000 as the share of
ine ; $KiO,000.000 from
ion of taxes, with the do-
return: 5200
Alsace-Lorraine
better collecti
mobilization from military service of
lbj tax collectors, nnd an increase,
direct and indirect, of S150,000,000 from
increased railroad tariffs.
The French know that they have a
ciant task before them to mke cood
rj n-tftcneavy cxpen&cof reconstruction and
administration vuicu muse i" iaeeu
next year. Itsuccessful performance,
Baron du Marais explained, depends ou
these factors :
"First. The rapid reconstruction of
the devastated regions of Frnnce.
"Second. The resumption of activity
in all the manufacturing plants of
France, based upon their being sup
plied with sufficient raw materials."
V. S. Aid Is Essential
Because Germany cannot be expected
to pay its indemnities to France in the
immediate future, Baron du Marais ex
plained, tho aid of the United States
in the matter of credits is essential.
"During the war, credits were ob
tained in the form of loans from gov
ernment to government.
"To issue French securities on the
American market, would be the best
method, beyond all doubt, of providing
France with the means of payment the
requires.
Moreover, you cannot get away from
me incs mat, tor a country iu which
exports exceed imnorts by n huso dif
ference, it is absolutely necessary to
mane toreign invcstnicntSj
"A country in such a position cannot
insist upon receiving gold indefinitely
from its foreign customers, Such nn
influx of gold would become useless as
soon as its gold reserve would exceed the
needs of its trade.
"During the war, Americau capital
kept piling up, so that many economists
and financiers are of the opinion thnt
Americans could easily invest yearly
irom one to two billion dollars abroad.
I share this opinion."
In conclusion Baron du Marais said :
"France is confident that America,
who comes out of the struggle more
powerful, more united and wealthier
than ever, will stand by her side. The
most severely stricken of all, she must.
of necessity for a certain period of
timo, devoto nil her energy to healing
her wounds; but during this time she
trusts that America will supply her
with the raw materials nnd the equip
ment she requires for immediate re
cuperation," Asks Credit for Belgium
Albert Edward .Tanssen, member of
,ihe Belgian mission, professor nt the
University of Louvain and director of
'the National Bank of Belgium, told the
'conference, that money is abundant aud
cheap in his country, with a present

'Stair CoireanonUent of Hi Krenlnr Tobllc
l.rdg-er
Washlnglon. Oct. 21. -The Senate
foreign relations committee Is again
playing into President Wilson's bands.
By piling up numerous reservations
through the adoption of every sugges
tion in sight, even the ideas of men
like Senator Heed. who. though not
members of (he committee, drop in nt
its meetings and offer reservations, the
committee is giving the President, the
Issue on which bo may refuse to certify
.the treat). If adopted with all the ap
pendages. The committee is plainly trying to de
feat the treaty. Having failed let kill
it by outright rejictiou nnd ngain by
amendment, it is trjing now to defeat
it by amending it under color of merely
waking teservntious
The Keed reservation ordered prepared
by the committee yesterday is the clear
est Instance of this purpose. If that
is adopted thprc will be little left of
the league of nations nnd the United
Stntcs will enter it in such a spirit
that the prospect of the league ever
developing into unythlng will be killed
at the outset.
If the committee bud got together
upon a modernte program of reserva
tions, even including the one on Article
X which the President denounced on
the stump, it would have been difficult
for the administration lo heat the
tteaty. The isu" left before the pub
lic would not have heen clear enough
for the Democratic party to take it
into a national campaign. Itesponsi-
bilitv for the delay and contusion in
sulting from the defeat of the treat)
would have rested upon the Democrats.
But the llepubliean majority is los
ing its practical sense. It is s0 de
sirous of damaging the treaty nnd of
making President AV'ilsou's part in fin
ishing its ratification so difficult as to
be almost impossible, that it is fur
nishing excuses in the public' ejes for
the refusal of the President to certify
the treaty when adopted.
Committee Opposes Treaty
Its wish to kill the trcnty is so plain
thnt it cannot conceal it.
The previous report of the foreign
relations committee simply died on ex
posure to the public view. The amend
ments thnt were "sure to pass the
Shantung amendment nnd the. Johnson
amendment xtradilv lost ground under
public discussion. The same thing may
happen ngniu to the more extravagant
proposals in the present report, the
preamble, the lteed reservation nnd
the sheer mass of reservations, the pur
pose of which is to emphasize the con
tempt and hostility of the Senate to the
Common sense may prevail and these
i:.:il.- nnniiin oicresceuscs may lie
removed and reservations maj t

1.a l'mciflont'
The Senate loreigu rrmuuin ....
mittec is running "emptyings, rather
spiteful "emptyings."
On the face of it theie are now votes
enough to pass most, if not all. reserva
tious and the preamble. And the short
ness of the time left and the sheer
weariness of the men who, like the mild
reservation Republicans, have nt length
gicn into party pressure, make prob
able the adoption of the latest icport of
the committee substantially as it
S H a" majority is found for the l eport
ns it stands a definite fight between the
President and the Senate seems certain
to follow. If Mr. Wilson were, well
there would be no question as to his re
jecting the treaty thus burdened with
ratifications. But. sick ns he is it is
not conceivable that he will certify the
treat). .. . ,,..,
Many Democrats Hate WiImhi
Whether the Democratic minority in
!,.. Snntn will take UPOll itSClf tllC
responsibility for defeating the treat), i
seems doubtful. Sen.itos Hoke Smith
sa)s that Senator Hitchcock s plan to
vote down the treaty, if the proposed
reservation arc attached to it. is
"ridiculous" and there is no question
thnt Mr. Smith speaks for a lnrge
minoritv of Democratic senators.
Mr. Wilson is near the end of his
term jlnnv in'mocrum- sruniuia ";
him ns bitterly ns do the Hepublicnus
ami they no longer fear him. Thev me
ready for n revolt. Mr. Hitchcock
might hate the support of tonic Re
publican "bitter-cuders" in defeating
the treat).
But this is improbable The Repub
licans arc likcl) lo be satisfied with the
resenations proposed, aud they me
more interested in embarrassing the
President than they arc in 'defeating
the treaty.
It is perfectl) plain that the Demo
cratic senators wish to avoid the i.ssue
of voting agnlnst ratifications. They
wnnt the Piesident to nssume responsi
bility for the treaty's defeat. The first
step the President is likely to take is
to send a message to the Senate disap
proving o the proposed reservations.
If that message is not heeded the
President will probably refuse to ccrtifs
the treaty and the issue will go into
the next campaign.

At tbe steel plant the king presented
Vance McCormick with the badge ot

President Wilson had before bint to

MOORE COMMENTS
E
SENATOR VARE IS SILENT
Omission of the title from one uf the
sections in the civil service article ot
the new charter. Congressman Moore
said today, would not change the intent
of the law to take the police and firemen
out of polits.
The coiigress'mnn declaies that there
was no doubt "us to the intent of the
law with regard to policemen aud fire
men," and renewed his pledge to free
them from political influence.
t Agitation hns been created In political
circles over the merging of sections 11
and -I of the civil sen ice article, ap
parently through an error in printing
the bill.
A divergence of, opinion has arisen
ns to whether the merging of the two
sections takes city officeholders out of
politics completely or nullifies even the
mild restrictions placed over political
activity by the old Shcrti law.
Congressman Moore declined to com
ment on the officeholder phase of the
mix-up caused by the error iu printing
the hill be) ond saying thnt it would
have to "be tonsidered carefully ami
interpreted legally."
Senator Varc Is Silent
Senator Varc, who was the lender of
the forces opposed to the enactment of
the charter legislation, likewise declined
to make any extended comment.
"I have not rend the bill, and don't
intend to, said the senator. We dis
co) ered the error in the Civil Sen ice
article some mouths ago. John It. K.
Scott und Ddwin O. Lewis went over
the sections affected. They reached the
opinion that no change was made in the
status of city officeholders."
Congressman Moore gave the follow
ing view of the error:
"I have noticed the apparent min
gling ot two sections and the absence
of '21 as a section. 1 have been

Special ntajNiich to Evenino TuMlo htSotr
Detroit, Oct. 21. Bishop Thomas X
Garland's decision to decline election
to the' missionary bishopric of Utah was
based on his belief that in Philadelphia
he had a larger field of Service to the
church.
He came lo the decision suddenly
yesterday, after having the matter before
him since last Saturday, nnd scut n
brief message to the presiding bishop,
notifying blm of his decision to con
tinue in tho diocese of Pennsylvania.
In a statement made this morning
ho acknowledged his gratitude to the
people of tho diocese for the sentiments
they expressed in the flood of tele
grains and letters coming here that he
decline the Utah call
"My decision to continue my vrk
iu Pennsylvania," he said, "wii of
course, upart from any consideration
other than that of the opportunity for
service. I considered the two fields
seriously from every possible angle of
service, nnd i came lo tne conclusion
at laht yesterday that in the diocese
of Pennsylvania there was a greater
field or work."
Utah Vacancy Is Filled
After the house of bishops had re
ceived the decliuntio of Bishop Gar
land to take the post in Utah it went
into secret session to select to till tin
vacancy. The name of the man selected
came down to the house of deputies for
approval this morning. Lie is the Rev.
Dr. Arthur W. Moulton, of Lawrence.
Mass. His election promptly followed
report of his name to tho convention.
Bishop Philip J. Ilhinclander today
expressed his gratification at Bishop
Garlnnd's decision.
"I felt from the first." bo said.
"that he should decide to stay in the
diocese. There is a greater field of work
there for him and 1 am greatly pleased
that lie is going to stny." Members of
the Pennsylvania diocesan deputation
were lenders in the light in the house
of deputies which gave ucw powers
to the ollice of suffragan bishop which
Bisiiop Garland holds In Pennsylvania.
The ncv. Dr. Floyd W. Tomklns
made n sdrong plea that the house
of deputies extend the right of vote to
suffragan bishops in the house of bishops
when the matter came before the house
for concurrence yesterday. The house
of bishops passed the measure two days
aco nfter u debate.
The house of deputies approved the
chauge proposed aud if the next con
vention passes the measure, Bishop
Garland will be one of the suffragan
bishops granted u full )otc In the bouse
of bishops. The fight to give this vote
to the suffragan bishops lias been a
long one nnd much discussed in the
church, theoretically, the bishop suf
fragan has no jurisdiction in the diocese
but is the assistant to the bishop taking
such authority ouly as is delegated. This
actiou raises the dignity of the office.
Convention Adjourns Today
When the convention adjourns today
the executive "committee, which is now
lo hnve charge of the administrative
functions of the Church duriug the
three-year interval between conven
tions, will be completed. This commit
tee is to bo composed of eight laymen,
chosen by the convention, four bishops,
four clergymen und eight other mem
bers to be selected, one for each piov
ince of the Church.
The fourth province, iu which the
diocese of Pennsylvania is located, w'
be leprescutcd by Bishop Murray, of
Baltimore. It is believed that Arthur
E. Xewbold, of Philadelphia, will be
odc of the la)men selected by the con
vention. -Mr. rscwltolu lias been so

LAUDS ABSENCE OF DRINK
Dr. John Grier Hibben, president of
Princeton University, today attributed
the numerous "drives" for funds.to en
dow institutions of learning throughout
tho country to the realization that
teachers as a class ore underpaid.
Doctor- Iltbbch is in tho city ds the
lunchcoli speaker in the Philadelphia
Orchestra $1,000,000 campnigu. Prior
to bis formal remarks at the luncheon
the Princeton educator discussed briefly
a few other subjects. "
"The reason so many colleges are
conducting drives for funds at this
time,' I believe," said Doqtor Hibben,
"is the ngitation for higher salaries
for teachers. It is so at Princeton, nnd
I think it is also the case elsewhere.
Realization has come to tho public that
teachers in fccbools and colleges are
underpaid and that increases must be
allowed to maintain the necessary
standards. Not all of the money we
are seeking for Princeton will be ap
plied to salaries. Some of it will be
used for new equipment in our vaiious
departments so we can keep abreast of
the limes.
School Free of Drinking
"There is one remarkable thing iu
our college life this year. Since the
opening of the term there has been not
a single case of discipline for infrac
tion of the rules against drinking. This
is unusual, aud I can only nttributc
it to the effect of nrohibition."
Doctor lllbbcn briefly referred to the
illness of Ins friend nnd predecessor,
President Wilson. Mingled with his
expressions of sorrow he voiced nn op
timistic note, nnd expressed hope thnt
tnoi patient s improvement would be
rapid and mat lie "would be his old
self again very soon.
Must Get 5125,000 a Dny
The luncheon today at the Ritz-Carl-lon
has been dubbed the Alexander Van
Rensselaer luncheon because Mr. Van
Bcnssclner presided. T DeWilt Cuyler,
President Hibben and William Hamp
den were the speakers. Miss Stella
Hughes, Stokotvski medal winner, saug.
This wns the seventh luncheon of
the campaign and is regarded us a crit
ical one. At least $125,000 mustcbe
reportcil nt each luncheon hereafter if
the SI ,000.000 goal is reached. Half n
million dollars hns been reported so far.
Fdward W. Bok, chairman of the
campaign committee, is most optimistic
concerning results. "I am sure we
arc going to reach the goal." he said
today. "And the Philadelphia Orches
tra will be ussurcd ot its place in the
world. One pf the first thfer; tirst will
be arranged after the campaign "will be
provision for more concrets in Philadel
phia at small price, so music may be
given to thousands mire people."

DISCUSS PROBLEMS TODAY
At the hearing this afternoon on ths
Rrtpld Transit Company's plans for
abolition of exchange tickets, nnd for
the completion nnd operntion of the
Frnnkford "I," Director Twining, of
the Department of City Transit, will ask
for nn additional hearing to present his
attitude toward the company's pro
posals. Copies of the five suggested onll
nances presented by the company last
week were not sent to the transit di
rector until yesterday. His analysis
of the plans has been confined to tho
general proposition laid before Councils
by President Mitten, of tho transit
company.
Mr. Twining, It is understood, desire
additional time to study in detail the

Today's hearing will be held jointly
by Councils' finance nnd street rail
ways committees, with Chnirmon Joseph
P. Gnffncy, of the. former committee,
presiding.
Would Abolish Exchanges
In return for nn abandonment of ex
change tickets the rnpld transit com
pany asks to be relieved of annual pay
ments to the city now totaling $785,
000. It is proposed to do away with tho
three-cent tickets' by January 1, sub
stituting free transfers everywhere but
in the central business district, where
neither exchanges nor free transfers1
would be issued or accepted.
The suggested ordinance relative to
the elevated line through the north
east calls for the advancement of funds
by the company for tho completion o
tbe road.
In return, the city would lease the
line for a nominnl paymeni of $1 yearly.
tne company to pay over to the city the
eutirc earnings of the elevated anfl the
company's s).stem nfter the company
had set aside u fund of $1,500,000 a
year, cumulative from July 1. 1020, to
pay 5 per cent upon the rapid transit
company's ?.'!0,000,000 capital.
City Officials Invited
Among those invited to the meeting
today arc Mayor Smith, William C.
Hancock and Colonel Sheldon Potter,

pany's directorate, ,
