TAKE CHURCH'S

NATIONS DEBT
British Consider Ste:
Which Would End
Union With State.

London, Nov. s.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press.)-Observers Of Great
Britain's financial problems attach
some significance to a suggestion
made recently that the main burden
of,paying off the huge national DEBT
created by the war should be laid
upon the Church of England and
the Church Of Scotland, more par
ticularly on the former. The pro-
posal is that all their property, in
clud:ng Westminster Abbey should
be sold and converted into cash for
the relief of the debt-afflicteo coun-
try.
The attention attracted by the
idea is due largely to its course, i:
being brought forward by the Sta
tistic, one Of the widely read jour
nails of finance and trade. The
writer Of the article asserts that
the annual interest charge of 50J,-
100000 pounds which he estimates
that England is facing, will hang
like a mill stone around the ma
tons neck unless some means is
found to get rid of it.
Hence, the necessity of making 9
large hole in the debt ''by one large
sacrifice with those who have ths

SUPPLY OF COAL,

Quincy, Ill. Nov. 12.-At a meet
ing attended by all the local coal
dealers this afternoon it was dis
covered that there is less than a
days supply of coal in Quincy. The
cold wave which struck here dur
ing the night has made the demand
for coal acute, and the railroad ad-
ministration. has been appealed to
to release the coal held in the rail-
road yards here. of which there
are about sixty cars.

business. i
Radical advances should be
made in advertising rates. The per
centage of increase should be such
that they will hold back the sluice
Of advertising that has poured into

during the next year."
Declaring that English neWspa-
,perA during the war reduced their
size by one-third, but 90 advanced

Glass said:
