CREDIT PLAN
TO PAY DEBTS
TO BRITAIN
Proposal Is to Draw Against
S1OO,OO0,O0O in Bank
of England.
BILLS REDEEM ABLE
AFTER SIN MONTHS

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-THE SUN is
able to give an outline of the plan
which Secretary McAdoo and the Fed
eral Reserve Board in cooperation with
certain New York bankers have pro-
posed to the British Treasury in the
matter Of the Indebtedness of the United
States To Great Britain.
II this plan is accepted American
officials are certain that foreign ex-
change will he again on practically 4
normal basis and that trade between
the United States and Great Britain will
again flow freely through its accus-
toned channels and with increasing
volume.
The proposal made by the American
officials is that the Bank of England,
supported by the British Treasury, shall
create a credit in London Of 800. 900, 900
in favor of certain large banking in
situations. chiefly II not entirely IN New
York city. This credit shall be used
in the operation Of foreign exchange
between the two countries.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1914-11-14

Az viewed here the American proposal
amounts to an extension of international
credit for six months, with the important
advantage OF restoration OF normal
foreign exchange conditions and the con-
servation of the gold supply in the United
States.
The advantage which Great Britain Is
supposed to derive from the arrangement
will consist chiefly in the restoration OF
more satisfactory and freer trade with
the United States.
No word has come from the British
Treasury officials as to their attitude to-
ward these proposals. but II is understood
that Sir George Paish, who is represent
ing the British Treasury in the confer
ences with American Treasury officials,
has not opposed the plan.
A committee of bankers. consisting OF
Benjamin Strong. Jr., Albert II. Wiggin
and James Brown. have cooperated with
the Federal Reserve Board in considering
the foreign exchange problem and the in
debtedness Of the United States to Great
Britain.

TO Draw Against the Credit.

The banks in whose favor the credit
is placed Will draw bills of exchange
against this credit and these bills may
be utilized by American debtors in set
Ting their balances with English credi-
tors. The plan provides that these bills
of exchange so far as American banks
are concerned, shall not be redeemable
for six months.
1t IL the expectation Of the American
authorities that through this foreign
exchange arrangement. experimenting
the present 100000 900 gold pool and
the increased flow of exports. any un-
certainty that may hang over the in
ternationals trade situation between
Great Britain and the United States
owing to the present Indebtedness NJ
this country will be removed.
The American officials believe the pres

creased expectations alone will have dis

The argument advanced here is that

GIRL SPIES DIE AS
BRAvELY AS DO MEN
Shooting of Women Takes Place
Daily In Cities of North
France.

In the North of France.-No lists or
even figures are officially disclosed,
but the shooting of spies takes place
daily in this and other towns of the
district, and in these last three days
nearly as many women have been shot
as men.
The most seasoned veteran loathes
the task of shooting women, but ac-
cording to the laws it must be done.
They are lined up with the men, often
mere girls or women of refinement at
the zenith of their charm and beauty,
who, according to their lights, give
their lives for their country and meet
death as bravely as any man.
So many spies have been caught in
France lately that the possession OF
papers apparently in good order avails
a man or woman nothing once an ac-
cusation has been made or suspicion
aroused. 1t is asserted that no Ger
man tongue can ever pronounce GER
tain French words without betraying
itself. It is failure to pass tests OF
this kind which condemns the sus-
poets.
Their papers may have been stolen
and the signatures on their passports
studied so that the holders can pro-
duce passable limitations at will. Spies
have even been caught with their own
photographs superimposed upon 9th
ers on passports and with the official
stamp on the photographs counter
feited.

Mrs. Brand stood patiently by won

notice of her. She wished Bob would
hurry for she had never found that his
propensity for brandy affected his gal
lantry. To her way of thinking young
Reynolds was an ideal husband. Not
quite so imposing or important as her
own, perhaps. but SO attentive and
thoughtful. Bob usually made himself
very agreeable to Mrs. Brand. Some
times he seemed extremely so. But,
of course, that was only as 1t should
be. 1t was his way with women and

Young Mrs. Reynolds lounges before

A CHEEKY fire that casts bright rays
about a scene OF comfort and ease.
Something of the Joy of living seems
to have come into the life of the Rey-
nolds. Why not? For Bob has taken
hand and is playing in the game
Their house is in the fashionable north
shore suburb, not far from the
Brands. Less pretentious than their
benefactor's, for Bob is pupil and
Brand past master of the systems
ways. But a year has passed and,
Judging from appearances, young Rey-
nolds Is doing very we'll. BY the light
from handsome electrolier he is

Bob, DEAR" his wife reminded him,
you must dress. The Brands will be
here any minute in their car"
He had laid down the paper and
looked at her.
Always their car" he answered,
petulantly. Whats the matter with
ours?"
Nothing, dear. but you know the
limousine is better. The nights are
getting cold. Besides, If we sit in
their box, why shouldn't we go over
with them?"
"Sure, why not? Brands box,
Brands car, Brands money. Why
not?"
Mrs. Reynolds lifted some folds of
silk and lace and got up. She put a
bare soft arm around her husbands
neck and caressed his cheek.
"Why, honey, you're almost cross to-
night. What's the matter, did you
have a bad day?"
"Oh, not particularly, but why can't
we leave the Brands out of 1t once In
while? It's Brand this and Brand
that till 1t gets on my nerves"

Another of those gruesome trag-

pleasant in opera? Somebody's al

wife, or trying to and it gets tiresome;

cheered up on, and think I'll have

He pressed button.
"Frieda," he ordered, bring some
brandy and ice."
1t was the same but transformed
Frieda. Flaxen braids are curled and
crimped and the gingham apron is no
more. Dress, black and tight fitting
with a low cut "V." Short enough to
show silk stockings and a pair Of
pretty pumps. And no more the SLOW
