BANKERS READY TO ACT Money, Not Politics, Can Be Converted Into Food, Is Burden of Tlaint. Special Cable Despatch to Tne Sun. Copyright. 1919, all rights reserved. London, Dec. 19. As in nil big In ternational situations, there is a po litical sldo and an economic side to world conditions but at pres ent the politic il and economic factors nre r.a Intermingled that tho zono of Juncture is a distinct politico-econom- ic field of its own. This lias not always been borne in mind in the discussions now taking placo with tho object of preventing the bankruptcy of Central Europe. The Washington correspondent of the London Jfonilnj; Post, quoting a despatch to Tun Sun, says: \That America must do her duty and cast away ber selfishness and provincialism Is the burden of a somewhat striking despatch sent by its London correspondent to Tub Sun, and although The Sun is opposed to the ratification of tho treaty of peace and has done Its best to make ratifi- cation impcssiblo tho correspondent shows that ratification of the treaty by the Senate is the foundation on which rests Jhs financial rehabilita- tion of cpntinental Europe. \The fait In sterling,\ ho explains, \Is not because England is bankrupt or unwilling to pay her debts, but be- cause the generously has used her credit and her resources in America and Is sending tho proceeds in food to France, Germany, Italy and Austria, which have little money that America will accent\ The correspondent of the Horning I'OSf men points oui inuv mu to The Su.v said \the Senate must rat- ify the treaty of peace, then the Amer-lea- n ncoDle mUst back up the bank ers\ because It Is necessary first to ratify a treaty before Europe can be reconstructed. This does not mean that any specific form of 'treaty or any League of Nations Is necessary. To say that would be mixing politics with economics. The one thing that is absolutely nec- essary Is to hasten the adoption of somo peace treaty. It might consist only of three words, \peace is estab lished.\ something like what Senator Lodge proposes. That would be suil.- - clent assurance for bankers to go ahead with their natural function of financing Europe; they would hava a basis on which they could work. No matter what ono may think of the ambitions of England, France or Japan, or of how far they may be fostered by the proposed treaty, that does not ultcr the necessity for making peace; tho details can be adjusted af- terward. Great Britain may or may not bo anxious to havo the United States ratify the treaty In Its present form. Hartley Withers, editor of the has described pretty well In a book the reason for Great Britain's financial success In the past by saying that she takes advantage of the \er- rors ot omission of other nations.\ It Is well that she does ro; some other nation might make sinister use of these oversights. That may be her attitude toward the present treaty: If It Is It is the duty of the United States not to commit any oversights. But political bias of opinion and mis- taken interpretation ot facts cannot alter tho fact that peace and money are the two things needed now to re- habilitate Euiope; all other arguments nre superfluous. Tho opinion of any politician or newspaper cannot be con- verted Into food 'which the people of Central Europe can eat. The sooner this Is realized in America p.nd the one word \peace\ Is subscribed to tho quicker will the world get back upon Its feet. BROADWAY DANCERS STAMPEDED BY FIRE All Get Out of Pekin Restau- rant, Leaving Checks. Smoke from a fire which started In a men's furnishings storo ut 157(5 Broad- way, under the Pckln restaurant at Broadway and Seventh avenue, began bellying across the dance floor in last midnight. The members ot the orchestra gasped and choked and stopped playing. Most of the 250 per- sons at the tables started for the coat rooms. But the smoke grew thicker nnd a sudden stampede to the trcet re- sulted, the merrymakers rushing Into Broadway bareheaded and without coats or cloaks. The members of one party missed a young woman, whereat several joung men raced up the stairs and began groping about e smoke filled restau-lan- t. They found the girl, who was said to be Miss Helen Sheehan, In an hysterical condition. She was carried to the street screaming, placed In an automobile and driven up town. Yuen Lit, proprietor, raid all of hll 250 guests left without paying thel.-check- The fire ate through the floor from the store below and did damage estimated at $5,000. The crowd outalde the resuiurant In Broadway was so dense that police re- serves were called out.
