McCUMBER RESENTS IDEA 'Says England Can Cancel Obliga- tions of Others, But U. S. Will Demand Seétlement. General cancellation of war debts, suggested by Great Britain in its note to various European nations, failed to receive approval from Senate leaders yesterday, republicans and democrats alike. Senator McCumber of North Dakota, chairman of the finance committee, declared that the United States will never agree to such a proposition. Other senators were eq antago- nistic to the p. tors of the old “irreconcilable Senator Hitcheock of Nebraska, rank- ing democrat of the foreign relations committee and its former chairman, quoted as saying that any such plan appeared to be without a possi- bility of American support. “The question of t Eritain can ling her debts is one for hersel id Senator McCumber. “What she does with respect to her debtors Is a matter for herself. Our policy ward ours is our own affair. never will consent to cancellation of the war debe Great Britain's or any other nation’s, in my opinion.” State Department officials again de- clined to comment on the British ying they wished, before dis- ing it, to study the text of the which {s being forwarded to hington by the American em- t London. Ofcials of the ex- branch of the government tive general were disposed to point out Congress had prescribed condi- tious for the refunding of the debts owed the United States by European \tions, and that deviation from the course now being pursued was im- ible without the sanction of Con-l ctically all mernbers of the | . are absent from Washington *"to the House adjournment and Comment from Teaders on that side of {$$ ol was not availabl have seen only the of the British Senator Lodge of M e republican leader. to cancellation of war newspap proposa <s.|(hu~wl . ux cancellation—no Only Centenarian; In Serviceof U. S. The only centenarfan in the service of the United States was placed on the civil service retired list today by Secretary Weeks. He is a negro named Mark Thrash, rated as a com- {mon laborer, who for the past twenty- eight years has served as “a stable- man, driver and man of all work™ at ithe Chickamagia and Chattanooga ional Military Park. in Tennessee uthentic records on file at the War Department show that Thrash is just five months less than 102 years of age. He was born December 25, 1820, of slave parents on the plantation of Dr. Thrash, in Louisa county, Va. and continued in slavery until the close of the civil war. Little is known at the War Depart- ment of his life after he gained his freedom until he entered the gov- ernment service at Chattanooga. June 1894 He was then seventy-four ars of age. but was big and strong {and fully able to do all that was re- quired of him. When appointed, his pay was fixed at $25 a month, and a few yvears ago was increased 1o $27.50 a month. Notwithstanding his vigorous hea!th he would have been dropped from the rolls two years ago when the civil service regiremena law took effect but for the fact that the original law applied only to persons in the classl- fled service, and as a laborer he was not entitled to a pension. Since then the law has been amended, and now includes laborers, charwomen and others in the federal service in the t of pensionable employes. Having served twenty-eight vears, he will receive an annuity of 54 per cent of his basic pay. amounting in his case t0 a little more than $14 & month. In indorsing Thrash's application for retirement, Richard B. Randolph, su- perintendent of the National Park near Chattanooga, said o 1s | a remarkably well preserved man, and has been faithful in the per- formance of his humble dutfes. His retirement leaves him at his advanced | age without means of suppor: other than the annuity for which he makes application. Y. M. C.
