ceived a cable from London touch
ing upon the statement of Lloyd
George in the House of Commons on
Saturday that this country's debts
to Great Britain aggregated $1,000
GOO, 900. The cable intimates that
the statement of the Chancellor of
the EXchequer was misinterpreted
and that British bankers estimate
the amount of this country's obliga-
lions to London as not exceeding
$25G,000,000 This was the maxi
mum named by Sir George Paish,
the British Treasury official, during
his recent visit to this country.
Local bankers believe that Lloyd
George probably referred to the
amount of American securities held
by bankers and individuals of Great
Britain. Al no time, the bankers
said. have this country's obligations
to England and her colonies ever

to have been named by the Chancel-

1t was also pointed out by our
bankers that many American rail

PASSPORTS ARE DENIED
NATURALIZED CITIZENS

Washington. Nov -Applica-
tions by naturalized Americans for
passports to visit their native lands
are frCUueu'iv meeting with rejec-
ton by the state Department. which
is enforcing strict application of the
new passport regulations recently
promulgated by President Wilson
In each case officials require it to be
clearly shown that the purpose of
the applicant is to make short bus
mess visit and that he has no inten-
ton to seek exemption from local
obligations while resident abroad
because OF his American citizenship.
Many complex situations have
arisen since the outbreak of the Eu-
ropean war through the efforts of
naturalized Americans engaged in
business abroad to obtain immunity
by virtue OF that citizenship from
regulations and restrictions enforc-
ed against their countrymen who
Frequently are competitors in bust
ness This has been particularly
true in Oriental countries.
The issuance of passports to child
rem horn in this country of allen
parents also is being closely super
vised. Great caution is exercised
in making out such passports to visit
any country which does not permit
the right % eXpatriation, but insists
upon military service from the
American-born children of its sub
jects in this country.
