PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 4.-Captain
Claude R. Collins, president Of the
Aviators' Club of Pennsylvania. an.
nounced tonight that he is willing to
go to- Mars by the rocket route under
certain conditions, which, he thinks,
can be met without difficulty.
he declared his faith in the project
OF sending gigantic rocket beyond the
bounds of theearth's atmosphere, and
whlie the plan of the originator of the
idea was merely to attach instruments
TO inc projectile which would record
atmospheric conditions, Captain Collins
oelieves that the rocket can be sent
entlrely beyond the earth's influence
and so directed as to land on anv

instead of attaching Instruments to
the rocket he would attach himself
FIRST, however, he wants his expenses
paid on tour Of the United States to
arouse interest in aviation. He in
slsts also on participation in the con-
struction of the rocket on which he
is to be passenger.
Captain Collins will be ready to start,
ne says, as soon as communication with
Mars has been established and after
rocket similar to the one on which
ne would take passage, has been sent to
Mars. He wants his life insured also
for $4,000. What Captain Collins con-
siders his most difficult condition

LONDON, Feb. Am international
conference to discuss the question of
foreign exchange will be held here
probably within month, it was
learned to-day. No artificial means
will be used to increase the value of
the pound sterling in American mar
kets, although an improvement is not
expected for some time. In fact, a
further decline is anticipated here.
That the treasury will take steps to
improve the financial situation seemed
probable, however. Rumors persisted
to-day that a reduction in paper cur
rency hotation by 92OooO,O 900 had been
decided on. This would have the eff
feet OF compelling both public and
private economy.
An embargo curtailing all except
absolutely essential imports from
America may be expected at any time.
Instead Of supplying American mar
kets, far-sghtad British merchants
have sent goods to Russia, Greece and
China, in the hope of controlling
future trade in those sections, contend
ing that the American exchange is only
temporarily unfavorable.
The press generally has dropped
criticism of the United States on the
ground that it is the duty of all to
assist England.

Bankers Refuse Advances

LONDON. Feb 4 By The Associated ID
Press).- AT yesterdays conference
with Chancellor Of the Exchequer
Chamberlain some of the leading bank
ers lntimated they had agreed to de-
cline further advances, either national
lmproed 1t had already been decided
that the Bank of England would limit
It's issue of paper money during the
present year to the amount issued
in 1919.
Much satisfaction is felt that the
revelation of the British governments $
lntlmation to the Washington govern
ment that it is not proposed to seek
further loans in the United States was
made before the statement of Secre-
tary of the Treasury Glass.
One effect Of the adverse American
exchange is that it will be used to
stimulate trade with France, Germany
and other European countries, where
exchange favors England, and this
course already has been recommended
by the Board of Trade The difficulty,
however, is that these countries lack
raw materials, being hardly able to
supply their own home demands.
The position in Lancashire, owing to
the stoppage of cotton imports, is like
ly to be serious if the stoppage is long
continued. Estimates vary as to the
amount Of cotton stocks, but the high
est is put at nine or ten weeks supply
There also is a considerable quantity
estimated at more than 100000 bales,
at sea. Cessation in imports is ex-
pected to result in sensational ad-
vances in prices.
The difficulty may be met tempo
rarily by resorting to short time work
in the mills The situation, it is be-
lieved. will assist in the agitation
favorable to the promotion of a fund
for the fostering of cotton growing
within the empire in order to render
Lancashire more independent of Amer
