LN ANGEL '10 EUROPE
hits every suggestion for the it-
nancial rehabilitation of Europe the
United States enters—as the
Icheme’s "angel.” 0
Foreign Ministers Strcsemann and
Biland, respectively of Germany and
France. have framed up a scheme
forgetting French troops out of the
Rhineland and for the return of the
less basin to the Germans. without
waiting for the plebiscite provided in
the Versailles treaty.
In return ior these concessions.
Q‘Germany is to issue a half billion
' ~7dollsrs worth of bonds on her rail-
roads and France is to get the half
5' billion.
' But half a billion 'in bonds isn't
what France wants. She wants it in
.cash. Before she can'get it. the
bonds will have to be sold. To
whom? Why. to the United States.
of course.
Herr Etresemann has hinted at it
plainly already. M. Briand hasn’t
gone,qulte so far, but there can't be
any reasonable doubt that that's
what both sides expect.
In short. France, which has not
« yet agreed to America's war debt
5» settlement tennis. is to get an addi-
tional half billion. to stabilise her
own money and possibly—this is
J x .s.‘ guess—to pay some off! back
“to the United States on account}. "
To be sure. America would have
‘.Germeny's railroad bonds. but sup-
,..
',Could America» ioreciose on the

France? Imagine the United States

Many a e the names of this is-

viper and even water moccasin. a
name properly belonging to another
and really dangerous species. A
large percentage oi the snakos

truth were known. be nothing more
than this harmless species.

If we approach too near ho slides

Often he bears in his scaly skin
the marks of his last excursion in
the shape of a coating of earth. for
he is partial to muddy waters and
works much about the bottom. Fish
or'frog lures him to the water. And
that which he searches for he is
likely to find. for he usually is in
good condition.
While most snakes lay eggs. those
of certain groups retain the eggs
within the body until they are
hatched. The water snake belongs
to‘this latter class. giving birth in
early tell to as many as at young
ones. seven or eight inches in length.
While the water snake is harmless.
as its bite is not poisonous and it
seldom .bitea. its food habits some-
times are injurious to man's inter-
eats. About trout ponds or streams
it may catch these desirable fish
though at the same time it catches
other fish which prey on the eggs
and the young of then trout.
Its almost universally bad name is
but another instance of our pro-
pensity .to seize on some certain
hebi‘. and condemn a species to ex-
termination without iurther study.
But before there were so many fish.

Gene Tunney has been up llart—
ford way and was taken over to
Piniuiield. where he was the guest
of Gov. John H. Trumbull and his
family in the governor‘s homo.
Tho Hartford newspapers devoted
considerable space to Mr. Tunney's
visit and spoke of him as a likely
permanent resident of the Capitol
City. incidentally they discussed his
fondness for literature, having dis-
covered that.uleue‘s favorite lililliul‘
is no other than. Cooper.
Having obscru-d‘tllc generosity of
the Hartford newspupcro in thclr
treatment. of the visit of the new
world champion to that city, and
particularly noting their pluyup of
his predcilctlon toward literature.
the New Haven Journavaouricr
suggests. evidently having in mind
his visit to Governor Trulnbull's
home. that he be appointed to the
library commission. saying that his
appointment “would lead a certain
garrulity to that body.”
We are at a. loss to know whether
this is a knock or a boost.
