THE FOLLY OF
INFLATED CURRENCY
Nations that attempt to bal-
ance their budgets and pny their
bills through further inflation in
their paper currency find them-
selves bogged in quicksand. The
harder they struggle the deeper
they sink.. Their last state is
always worse than their first.
Consider Soviet Russia. Four
months ago she entered upon an
inflation debauch. At that time
she had outstanding notes to the
sum of eleven trillion rubles.
Then 107.000 paper rubles were
equal in value to on;; gold ruble.
Since then she has issued sixty
trillion rubles and as a conse-
quence the value of the paper
ruble has depreciated until today
over two million rubles arc re-
quired to equal one gold ruble.
An inflation of '650 per 'cent has
been accompanied by a deprecia-
tion of 95 per cent. Although
she has filled ho country with
paper money she is actually
poorer today than she was at the
begining of the new year.
And yet in the face of this
tragic example there are some
American publicists who would
hav the United States jettison
its gold standard and place its
faith in fiat money.

causes that make war. Distrust

greed hav not yet been rooted

Unless the philosophers can
discover sonic new means there
is only one May to build an age
of confidence sympathy mutu-
ality and peace and that is by
starting with the children of to-
day who will bo the men and
women of tomorrow. And be-
hold the proof!

brought word that the children of
a village school in Rumania had
contributed fifteen lei "to aid the
'bil Iren of families mado desti-
tute by the destruction of th?
Knickerbocker Theatre in Wash-
ington D. C."
What matters it that these
Rumanian children knew little of
America! What matters it that
there are no destitute children in
Washington as a result of the
Knickerbocker catastrophe? The
point is Ibis: The proof has been
made the children of today if

With seed for planting grain to meet
present food needs and medical and
hospital supplies pouring into Russia
the march of death famine and disease
has been checked through the work of
the American Relief Administration
snd allied agencies. More than 2000-
000 youngsters owe their lives to Am-
erican food and 5000000 adults arc
receiving relief as a result of the
pO00O00O appropriation made by Cbo-
iress for corn and seed grain. U.'Ilion
more find relief through the gift by
Congress of $4000000 in surplus gov-
rrnment medical and hospital supplies
tnd by the American Red Cross of
53000000 in similar supplies to the
Kmerican Relief Administration.

Col. William Haskell director for

American supplies and determination
are bringing life and hope to literally
millions of Russian people.
The physical limits of rail transpor-
tation under present conditions consti-
tute the gravest problem of the task.
Russian railways were never of the first
order and at present their condiuon is
extremely bad. There has been food

Whilst I stood guard in France at noon one day
A pillow of cloud of marvelous grace
.Swept by; and as I humbly knelt to pray.
In it I saw my mother's face.
My comrades hurriedly carried me off the field
And gently placed "icon a cot;
T!v blessed Angels of the Cross then sealed
My eyes and left me to my lot.
I started home on a ship of monstrous size;
It drifted far out on the sea;
Its mast-top pointed to the vaulted skies .. ' ....
- Its passengers were. God and me.
As on it drifted each receding wave
That broke upon that sea of Fate
Turned quickly to another soldier's grave
And left me there disconsolate.
The nearer home I came thro mist and spray
The further away it soemed to be
Until at last I failed to grope my way
And darkness hovered over nie.
At night I stood beside a railway train
And entered a sinirle coach alone;
J felt no loving hand to soothe my brain;
My troubled heart t!?n turned to stone.
Like lightning from the sky it swiftly sped;
In front it drank the piercing wind
And ran so fast o'er graves of murdered dead
That it burnt up the rails behind.
And then at early dawn at break of day
Alone I stood at my mother's gate;
I lvard the cattle low and horses neigh
And the dra&t low whisper to his mate.
The birds began to twitter in the trees
And faintly chirp their morning song;
The glistening dew drops stooped on bended knees
To light my weary way along.
Curk'd on the porch there lay.my trusted friend.
1 whistled shrill and spoke his name;
He raised his head and faithful to the end
Fast bounding down the walk he came.
He cried nnd licked my hands and kissed my feet
And threw his arms about my neck
And with my own I felt his pr-at heart beat
And Oh! the crash of Worlds and wreck
Of Time that fell across my anguished soul
As he looked in my face and said:
O Master! Master! where 's the Broken BowlT
And at my trembling feet fell dead.
A crumped rose hung o'er my drooping head
As I stood on the steps of faded moss;
Its lifeless petals were seared and crisp and red
As the poppies that bowed at the little white cross.
Near in the window hung a service flag
v V hereon I saw two golden stars;
My heavy heart within bogan to sag
As I beheld its crimson bars.
.." " ' " . '.' ' . .
Thrice I knocked the door. No response within. v
I seized the knob and flung it wide:
" There lay an empty skull with mocking grin!
And I fell prostrate at its side.
I writhed in pain and gasping cried aloud;
lit vain tried to rais? my head;
Lo 1 there beside me lay an empty shroud !
- . She too was dead!
