FIVE BILLION DOLLARS
NEVER DEBT TO ENGLAND
Lloyd Georges Statement of Trade
Balance Discredited in Communi-
cation From London.

NEW YORK. November 2S.-An inter-
national banking house. with infinen-
tial British connections. today received
a cable from London touching upon
the statement of Lloyd George in the
house of commons Saturday that this
countrys debts to Great Britain ag-
gregated 5000, 600, 00c
The cable intimates that the state
ment of the chancellor of the eNcheduer
was misnterpreted and that British
bankers estimate the amount of this
countrys obligations to London as not
exceeding s25o.0Oo.00O. This was the
maximum named by Sir George faish.
the British treasury official, during his
recent visit to this country.
Local bankers believed that LLOYD
George probably referred to the
amount of American securities held by
bankers and individuals of Great Brit
ain. At no time, the bankers said, have
this countrys obligations to England
and her colonies ever amounted to the
colossal sum said to have been named
by the chancellor.
ers that many American railroad notes
and other forms of obligations held by
British and French banks and investors
are to mature within the next few
months Arrangements have been made.
it is understood. to meet the demands
when due, partly by further ship
ments of gold to Canada to be placed
This process was employed to meet
the maturing New York city notes. the
great part of which have already been
liquidated.

ANNUAL CONFERENCE
OF FRATERNITY MEN
Delegates From Thirty-Four Of the
Largest College Organizations
Are Present.

NEW YORK, November. 2s.-More
than one hundred delegates from the
thirty-four largest national college fra
ternities attended the sixth annual inter
fraternity conference at the University
Club today. Two college presidents, a
score of college professors and repre-
sentatives from universities throughout
the country participated in the meeting.
That fraternties have exercised an in
creasingly wholesome influence on college
life since the Inauguration of the first
national interfraternity conferences by
President W. H. Faunce of Brown Uni
versity was the consensus of opinion
in reports from seventy-five institutions
In reply to queries forty-five colleges
answered that the fraternity influence for
good had grown vastly in the last two
years Twenty-four reported that there
had been no change, and six that fra
ternities had long been beneficial No
college reported that their influence was
baneful.
For the continuance of the work of
the conference several committees were
appointed. James D. Curtis, Delta Tau
Delta, was elected president: H. H. Nc
Corkle, Phi Kappa Psi, secretary; O. III.
Cheney, Phi Gamma Delta, treasurer. and
F. W. Shepardson, Beta Theta pi the
retiring president.

REVENUE CUTTERS NAMED.
Vessels Under Construction to Be
Known as Ossipee and Cherokee.

Ossipee and Cherokee are the names
that have been selected for the two
new revenue cutters building at the
Newport News shipyard and which are
expected to be completed and ready to
go into commission in the coming sum-
mer Cutter No. 26. which is designed
for service in a warm climate-in the
Gulf OF Mexico with headquarters at
Miami-will receive the name of Os-
sipee when she is launched. and the
cutter now known as No. 81, and de-
signed for duty on the Maine coast in
place of the old wooden hull cutter
Woodbury.. will be the Cherokee
Both cutters will be modern cruising
ships in every particular and will be
similar in general design. The differ
ence in the two vessels will be in their
interior arrangements made necessary
by the difference of the climates in
which they will do duty. Good progress
on the hulls of the new vessels is be-
ing made at the Newport News yard.
In selecting the names for the new
cutters the system of nomenclature
adopted many years ago, of giving
vessels of the revenue cutter service
the names of Indian tribes, has been
followed out.

T|LLMAN FOR j. S. PLANT
Senator Gives Hopes to Quaker City
of Obtaining Armor Factory
for Navy.

Special Dispa tcb 10 The Star.
PHILADELPHIA. Pa. November rs
Senator Tillman chairman of the fed
eral board which has been investigat-
ing the question of government armor
plant, in a statement here today, gave
increased hope to those Philadelphia ms
who have been urging such a plant for
this city.
Senator Tillman said he favored a
government plant. An inspection yes
terday of-the Midvale Steel Company
plant in this city was preceded by an
inspection during the early part OF
the week of the Carnegie Steel Com
pany plant in Pittsburgh and the Beta
lehen Steel Company plant. THE re-
suits of our inquiries" said Senator
Tillnan. were more satisfactory at
MidSale than elsewhere" With the
senator on the board are Representa- :
tive L. p. Padgett Of Tennessee and
Admiral Joseph Strauss Of the bureau
of naval ordnance.
"Onhand." said Senator Tillman, Il
should say a factory should be built
near the coast and the government
ought TO do as they do at Midvale. rely
on pig iron. rather than ore.
The only definite thing We got from
the Midvale plant was that these peo-
pie have been driven by the govern
ment itself into what I religiously be-
lieve is an armor plate combination.
They were the lowest bidders several
times in succession before they got
any contract"

Against a Neutral Zone.
LONDON. November 2s. sos pm
Since the United States indicated thar
ii was willing that England should deal
direct with Colombia and Ecuador con
corning alleged violations of neutral
ity. the British foreign Office has taken
no further action. Nevertheless, tho
denials that a German wireless sta
ton is being operated in Colombia and
that islands belonging to Ecuador ar,
being used by the Germans for nnvai
operations are not accepted as finally
disposing OF the case
The suggestion of South America
governments that the belligerents with
draw their warships from South Amer
lean waters is declared by English Of
fcials to be impracticable. The same
view is entertained concerning tho
plan for the creation of a neutral ION.
Off the coast of South America This.
II is commended, would afford an evea
better chance to warshlps to lie in,
wait for steamers engaged in the over
seas trade.

SERVES AS UMPIRE.
Capt. Gordon Robinson Arbiter in
Phonograph Competition.

For the past week Capt. Gordon Rob-
inson of the Quartermaster Corps has
been acting as umpire in contest be-
tween monographs. moving picture
machines and other features of the
proposed shows for the enlisted men
of the army. The competition took
place on the fourth floor of the War
Department. Within two months Capt
Gordon expects that the outfits for the
entertainments will be in possession
of all the army chaplains stationed in
the United States. and a month or SO
later will be issued to those in the
Philippines and in Hawaii
The films for the moving picture ma
chimes will be furnished by the post
exchanges. or paid for by contributions
by officers and men. That arrange
ment, it is thought, will not be hard
ship to the troops, as a number of gar
risons are now supporting moving pic
ture shows. 1t is predicted that this
plan will reduce the admission fee or
moving picture shows in the army from
cents to penny.
