France is at present in the best way of any, and is the most nearly self sustaining of any European country. In the parts where currency has depreciated there is an extreme orgy of buying which is most demoralizing to civilization. Some think this situation may reach France. There is no stability in Europe. As a result of the war, soldiers are less willing to endure cfvilized life. The economic rc- sult is loss of production.

Mrs. Carrie B. Prouty announced that Major Gilbert would speak at Com- munity House on the evening of Febru- ary 27, his subject, "The Romance of 4he-Last Crusade," Major Gilbert was with Colonel Allenby in Palestine. His talk is most heartily commended to Win- netka people by those who heard him last year. and Philanthropy committee, introduced the speaker, Mr. Quincy Wright, for- merly of Minnesota, but now professor in the department of Political Science at the University of Chicago. Mr. Wright's subject was "The Present Situation in Europe." The speaker urged all to vote on the Bok plan, no matter which way they voted. He himself is in favor of it. His thought is that the acceptance will not have immediate ef- fect and that it is only a plan for co- operation but that some form of co- operation'with Europe is necessary. The Bok plan involves two things; that the United States shall enter the Perma- nent Court of International Justice under the conditions stated by Secretary Hughes and President Harding. This step has been approved by both polit.cal parties. International justice is now in operation. The speaker cannot see why there should he any opposition in the United State? on its merit, lui'. believes the opposition is because this .r.bunal originated in the League of Nations. The second half is in . co- operation with the I eague of Nations. In touching upon the European situa- tion, Mr. VVright says that since 1919 it has ken charaetcrited hy starvation and unemployment. Population has been practically ex'.erminaied in parts of the Near East; people dyoig at tremendous rates; that the situation is much more serious in eas ern than in wes ern Europe. England has its economical Manufacturers arc without markets and raw material. Instability in... .frontiers and changing a series of borders in w m c ^ no oiie is satisfied causes much tfisse'nsion. There is how "more misery and less stability in Europe than just after the armistice. France expects Germany to pay indemnities far in ex- cess of her capacity. Now what to do about it. Europe should be looked upon as a whole. Prosperity for one country means prosperity for all. First, the League of Nations furnishes he only instrument for doing this. - Second,., the - political stability must precede economical rehabitation and France must feel more secure. Third, the United States can bring about financial security in Pilurope be- cause she is impartial. No country in Europe has confidence in the other. The United States is looked upon as being disinterested and has enormous weight.
