Young are pursuing the only salutary course for the good of the world in trying to meet Dr. Schacht, the German spokesman, half way. External war debts, on such a scale as at present, are a new phenomenon in international affairs. Their effect on the national economy is not well understood, and so long as the world sticks to its determination to see them paid, payment must proceed slowly and be safeguarded as far as possible...
