1 WARNS THATLLS. * WANTS DEBTS PAI Cong. Burton, Speaking in Lon: v don, Talks of Reparations London, Sept. 26.—(By Associated Press)—The disposition of the people of the United States is to reqifire pay- nient of the inter-allled debts owing to America, Congressman Theodore E. Burton declared in an address to- day at a luncheon given by the Am- erican chamber of commerce, Mr. Burton who emphasized that he was speaking as an individual and not as a member of the American debt funding commission or as a con- gressman sald three considerations had contributed toward arrival at this conclusion, Three Considerations First was the feeling that interna- tional credit and especlally debts be- tween natlons “have a certain degree of sanction—I might say of sacred- ness.'” “No one can exaggerate the fm- portance of credit to the modern fi- nancial and industrial world” he con- tinued. *Credit bridges the chasm be- tween early and sometimes unpromis- ing beginnings and the development of helpful enterprise. Cancellation or repudiation of debts would create not merely confusion and distrust in the financial world but seriously impair its future development. The result would rest with especial welght upon such a country as Eng- land where for centuries past English currency and English obligations have been the very synonyms for stability and assured payment.” The second consideration was that the amounts loaned to the foreign countries by the United States were provided by loans obtained from the people and with no small degree of difficulty. The advances were not from an overflowing revenue, but were made possible by the action of the United States in becoming a borrower alike with these debtors and at the same time. Taxation Heavy The burden of taxation in America, he declared wus quite as heavy if not h_elvler than that in the European countries. The third consideration he outlined a8 follows: « “A very conslderable fraction of the advances made were after the actual close of the war and were for re- habilitation and the creation of new enterprises rather than for the prose- cution of war in a time of great emer- gency. “It must be said that at the time these loans were made the legislation authorizing them and popular expec- tation both alike contemplated pay- ment. In the war itself, the Urgited States was not subjected to the s¥me surpassing dangers as her allies and in peace she sought no acquisition of territory. Large indemnities were not expected by her.” Mr. Burton lengthily explained the tra@litional aloofness of the United States from European affairs which he said explained the caution of the American people in regard to-enter- ing the league of nations.

Maurice, the British military expert, who has just returned from a visit to the British positions at Cha- nak, expressed the opinion that the British wouid be able if necessary, to hold this key position against any efforts to drive them out. Gen. Maur- ice thought there was no question that Mustapha Kemal would accept the allied proposals with reservations. “But if he elects to fight us,” said the general, ‘‘we are prepared. Our land and our air forces are such that we can prevent him from crossing the straits and invading Thrace and can successfully keep him out of Constaa- tinople. Chanak Position Strong. “Qur positions at Chanak which commands the 1errows of the Dar- danelles, are equal to any operations he may make on the stralts with the object of reachipg Constantinople. Our troops which ve held Chanak ever since the so-called neutral zone was first delimitated have been fargely re- inforced and there is a considerable fleet in the neighborhood. “Chanak could be captured only after a heavy bombardment and an attack by well organized force. “Our forces can hold this position against anything which our adversar- ies can spring against it. Our equip- ment there is even more advanced than that used during the World War,"” Order City Evacuated. London, Sept. (By Associat- ed Press)—The allied military author- ities In Constantinople says an Ex- change Telegraph dispatch from that city dated Monday, have ordered the evacuation of the residents of the villages close to Daridja, in the neu- tral zone protecting Constantinople and the Bosporus.

The Sublime Port is not letting the opportunity pass to safeguard that part of Thrace promised to Turkey under the allied conditions of peace and a force of 10,000 men has been organized.

The sow bore him to the ground. She began to bite and gouge him and he was helpless to de- fend himself. It was then that the of to the employe rushed to the rescue with a heavy pronged pitchfork. ENOUGH SOFT GOAL FOR THIS WINTER Situation Discussed by Members of Traffic Bureau Today The first meeting this season ,of the New Britain Tratfic bureau was held at the New Britain club this noon. The main points emphasized were the present embargo on goods tra- veling over several western rallroads, the coal situation and difficulties in securing transportation of freight, The reasons given for the emhargo were the fact that there is much im- portation of foreign products into the country, thus crowding the roads; the fact that as many cars as possible are needed to handle the coal that is avallable, and shortage of equipment on these rallroads. In speaking of the coal situation, a member spoke of recent trips taken by him. He said that he saw any quantity of soft coal and no hard coal at all. W. L. Bell of North & Judd company read a coal report issued by the government. From that it was thought that ghere need be no fear regarding coaly that is, soft coal. There will he rnough of it to last all winter. But the hard coal situation {s serfous and it was thought that many private families will be forced to use the soft coal before the winter is over. Pennsylvania will be first on the hard coal list when there is any. A. P. Marsh stated that he recently attended a meeting of warehouse men in New Haven. This meeting was called for the purpose of forming an association of warehouse men. There has been much adverse legislation to- ward warehouses such as taxing and retaxing, such legislation having start- ed in the west. It is gradually work- ing eastward. Seeing this necessity for getting together the men have started an association. When asked about the effect of auto truck transportation on the roads, Mr. Marsh said that the loaded trucks do not damage the roads as much as the ordinary touring car. The tendency of the touring car go- ing perhaps 40 miles an hour is to suck up loose gravel or paving. while a loaded truck going 20 miles an hour will act almost as a steam rcller, tamping the loose gravel back | into plac2. It has been proven that a touring car will do more damage to a road than a loaded truck. Of course, if the road was poorly constructed the truck will weigh down on it, but if it was properly built no damage will come to it from trucks. It was announced that the annual meeting of the National Industrial Traffic league will be held at the Ho- tel Commodore, New York city, No- vember 15 and 16. Local members were urged to attend. New Rritain has more members of the National bureau than any other city of the same size in the United States, At the next meeting of the bureau, a new chairman will be chosen. The present chairman, E. K. Burr, of the Skinner Chuck company, was in charge of the meeting today.
