I ■ t r , Monday to h v; tin mr a, . j of V, t handful of men
v. hose imtir’ng struggle again:* great odds brought victory to a weak
nation nd • »s deep the beginning of our happiness and prosperity.
I t iu' r. ns with revere' r' fue man who forsook wealth, ease and
influential friends to lead his countrymen in the war for liberty—George
Wash hr ion. ' orican.
IvTo: y c.. is to honor the 200.1; Birthday of George Washing- j
i n. February 22 1932, have been planned and are t: king the form of j

President Hoover will officially op n the nine*months, nation-wide >
Georg? Washington Bicentennial celebration at noon (Eastern Standard j
Time) February 22. when he will deliver his George Washington address
before a joint meeting of Congress, assembled in the House of Repre
sentatives in the Capitol.
RESTORATION OF COURAGE
-immediately after the papers in this country and in Europe had ;■
published elaborate analysis of what the Lausanne Conference was go- |.
ing to accomplish, the meeting was called off. Tire position of the j'
United States, as explained by the Secretary of State, may have had \1
somi thing to do with the postponement of the meeting.
The State Department says that we do not look with favor on
debtoj nations joining hands to shyster their bills (or more elegant j,
words to the same effect), that a demand for an extension of time or j.
a cancellation of debts could not pass Congress, and that the payment !j
<>f war debts and the payment of reparations are matters that are quite i
distinct. !
Such talk may have a depressing effect in Europe, but it lays a i
foundation for the restoration of courage, hope and prosperity in the i
United States. The average citizen for some months has been wonder- h
ing what his own efforts, and all proposed plans for domestic relief, 1
would amount to. if Europe was to be let off in return for a polite
"Thr>nk You "
