THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWXATVILLE, THUR.SDAY, JULY 22nd., 1926PAE5VI FLINT FLINT REIN RAIN REJGN Ail sounding alike, yet With such vastly different meanings. And so it is with motor cars. They ail look more or less alike on the surface, but how vastly different! Don't be satisfied with mere exterior beauty. Lift the hood-demand FACTS of construction and performance. A feiv of the splendid features of the FLINT are a Red Seal Continental Motor, 4-wheei hy- draulic brakes, pullman body, a separate chassis to carrýy engine and transmission, thus eliminating ail road shocks. The FLINT is roomy, easy rid- ing, powerful and perfectly controllable in traffic. To half appreciate these facts you must ride in a FLINT. To fully appreciate them you must drive a FLINT.

FaIl Tes-m Opens September 2lst-Enroll EARLY The Dcme carried on sur-face work last autunin and in the winter an the Hawie dlaimrs, with such fav- arable results that a winter road was cut through the bush where the rap- idly-flowing rivers remained open during the winter, even with the mercury down ta thirty and forty below zero. Enormous quaitities af supplies were taken in, 'as well as several diamond thrilling outfits.1 At first an endeavor was made to move this heavy freight by tractons and snaw matons, but these did not prove at aIl successful, and finally seventy teanis of horses were put on the job. Just about a month before the break-up, the long trek was coin- pleted and the "hay-wire express" reached Red Lake. The Dame's holding af the Howie properties was What is called a "working option", giving theni the right ta test out the dlaims and buy theni at a set price if satisfied. The sain of $10,000 waa paid when the, -option was secured, and wban on Manch lSth., 1926, a further pay- ment of $50,000 was made, the stamp of officiai appraval was puti on the area.

Recently France's premier, in dis- cussing the reasons for the continued decllne of the Franc currency, ia quoted as erpresslng the belief that, once ratification is accoimplished, the. A.merlcan government shc>uld b. wUllisig to grant every legitimate delay in the event tbat France prav- eà una.ble to meet ber payments. A safeguard clause in the debt qg- cooed, moakLng payments daipludenit FRANCE AND GERMANY By Chat. M. Bice, B. A., LL. B., Denver, Colorado, a Durham Caoanty Boy. In round numbers, France's inter- na[ or domestic debt reaches almost astronornical figures. It is 285 Bil- lions of Francs, whi-ch at prewarj rates of exchange, would amount to about 55 billion dollars, but which at cui-rent rates of -exchange with the world's measuring stick, or stand- ard American dollar, would be some- thing over seven billion dollars. In what manner should this in- debtedness be figured frosn France 's1 point of view? From prewar or1 postwar? Political economiists can- flot agree among themnselves on an answer; and yet the ansiwier means much toalal concerned. By asking this very question one niay be able to appreciate the tre- mendous influence which the $ is baving upon world eomrmerce and in- ternational values. It is a ne'w experience altogether in economic history. Added to, the internal debt--what the French government owes its citi- zens-is the external French debt of at least ten billion dollars. Turn this into francs at present quota- tions, and it reaches 370 billion francs, this the total debt oi the na- tion aniounts to the dizzy sum of about 555 billion francs, takifng the dollar as a multiplier. Whether France is hcpelessly bankrupt, or in a position to pay de- pends almost altogether an the standard, or yard stick. If France is called on to pay external debts with francs at their present quoted value, she may as well enter an in- ternational receiver's hands, repre- senting her two chief creditors. France borrowed when the franc in the world market wans wortb six tines its present current quoted rates. If payments are called for in the dfweciated franc does she lose the difference ,and is the credi- tor the beneficiary to that extent? Washington declines to answer for the present. rnwo-thirds of the g'overnmcental revenues of France go back to the bolders in France of governiment se- ourities. France takesl it out of one pocket and puts in into the other. Tco the French people, the French government is paying exces- sive rates of interest., The French holders of securities refuse ta rive way. They inake it a political issue when a propo3ition is made ta refund these debta nt an ordinary rate of interest, such as pre- vailed before the war. Prices cl living necessaries are not those of px'ewmr tises, Sol An American government officer who has been in France on this very question of war debts, and France's ahility to meet her obligations, par- ticularly hier external liaibilîties, bas gone on record, that while the people of France on aIl other natters which could be nained, are alert and ex- eeedingly logical, but an this ane question of economis--domestic and foreign obligatitons , they be- tray the mentalîty of children. It is the smafl "renter" that is opposing most bitterly recagnitio.n of France's obligations to the United States goveriment. And it is this saine class that refuses to be taxed to balance the budget. The Coin- m'unist, that bas no other affiliation with the French bourgeoise than Ithis, opposesi inéreàsed taxation of the many and doenands confiscation of the riches of the few. "Let the Ptemple fal only the rich will be hit by the flying stones", is the mot- to, of the latter. In the politico-econoanic sense, France is bankrupt; but really and actually France is solvent. Witbout its knowiing it, France is fast becomr- ing a power in the induatrial world. She lost inunensely in the war, it is true, but there is a credit siide, she gained Alsace-Lorraine and other things. The United States as a whole took part in the revivification of Ger- many through the Dawes plan, and it became a party ta a new deal that virtually upset the Versailles Treaty. France had to accept what was tendered to her under the American plan, and it was mucb less than France expected to receive as mne of the victars in the war. The United States and BJrtain went to the aid of Germany, and required France ta make notable concessions. France bas not forgotten this. One thing France is impatient to have done imimediately, and that is for ýhe United States ta, guarantee, in effect, tijat Germany will carry out the American-devised Dawes plan at least in s0 far as it affects THElF STANDARD BANK 0JF CANADA. rn BOWMANVILLE BRANCH-H.
