tion. in ‘London. a skilled worker .n the building trade re- ceives a wit-ge of . seven to twenty tiollam a week.

class of work the laborer in New

t York City and in many other Amer-

ican cities receive» a wage oi’ {tit} to 8T2 a week.

The difference in the Ettropeaa and American wage levels l-s very striking. The difference in the ‘gen- eral level of prosperity, comfort and firogresslveneas between. tube -two is equally striloin-g, also very stig- gesttive.

This is evident o” hi’ face.

These were good words from the late President Roosevelt and Gen- eral Pershlng anti they will be gratefully remembered in the Un- itcd Kingdom to the credit of the distinguished getttlettten who ut-

itered them. anti of muny other Am-

ericans who share their sentiments. Among these latter is Edwin F. lay. former President oi‘ Harvard

and ‘President o1 ihe New York l-Ivettiru; Post. in a recent article .\ir. Jay recalls the ntattner itt

which Great Britain dealt with lit-r allies after the conclusion of the war against Napoleon. one ltuutlretl odd yearn ago. “iinglutttl helped Europe to fight. not by loans but by direct grunts, and when after the war she was overwhelmed with financial troubles, shattered indus- tries and rioting tinemployed, sht- showed moderation toward ‘France and great forbearance toward her Allies. At the end of the struggle. for all practical pin-poses site wip-. ed the slate clean."

We are owed (by other nations) what we owe (to the States) and we would never have asked to be paid had we not been nvlted to pay. it would be jar better to cancel mutual obligations and start fair. A great chance was lost by America when she tore these problems from their ltistoric

lcontext and been-me the Usnrer of

Europe and the ‘Shylock of Peace."

Britain ha: been hard hit by the war, by her big creditor, by lossot‘ trade and the ‘big strike. bttt she lt-t not down and out. it was while the strike was on that for the first time éiince Christmas of 1914 the pound sterling was quoted at par in the foreign exchange tnarket.
