BRITAIN BEGINS
THINKING ABOUT
HER DEBT To US
Financiers of England Fully
Aware of Profound Effect
Her Indebtedness to Am
erica Has On Exchange.
tBy The Associated Press,

London, Jan. 4.--The appoint
ment of Lord Chalmers, perma-
nent secretary of the treasury, TO
go to Washington concerning the
British deb has not attracted great
attention yet except in financial
circles. The British public. though
aware in a general way that the
country is indebted to the United
States, fails to realize the extent of
the debt and that this debt is pay
able virtually ION demand" The
fact that the interest is funded for
three years has tended to keep the
subject out of sight except in the
financial world, where its import
ance is fully appreciated owing to
it's reactions on exchange move
ments and the future of national
finance.
Should the debt. as expected
here, be converted into long term
obligations, the chancellor of the
exchequer will have to provide for
the interest, and presumably the
sinking fund, which wodld seri-
ously add to his budget of diff
culties. There has beer corsiJ-
eratle speculation as to what at
titude the incoming administration
az Washington will take
Interesting questions have been
raised in London regarding the
rate of interest, the general as
sumption being it will be on a
five per cent basis and whether
better terms are to be expected
from the existing than the. in
coming administration. Other
questions are:
Will Washington recognize the
special character of the debt mas
much as the other allies are in
debted on an equally large scale in
England, and is the question of
repayment to be a direct matter be-
tween England and the United
States, or will repayment be con-
tingent on the other allies repay
ing to England part of their in
debtedness?
There seems, to be some doubt
among financial men whether i'm
portant negotiations relative TO
such a huge amount can be COM
pleted in the short time before the
new administration comes into
rover.

DUKE CITY MAY
Be LOCATION OF
BIG MOOSE HOME
Officials of Local Lodge De-
clare Albuquerque Is Be-
ing Considered As Site
For Large Institution.

A home for aged members of
the Loyal Order of Moose, to cost
several hundred thousand dollars,
may be built in Albuquerque, Of
ficials of the local lodge announced
yesterday Funds for the construc-
ton of the home are available in
the treasury of the grand lodge,
and it is planned to begin con-
struction as soon as the site is
selected.
The Chamber of Commerce has
been in correspondence with Off
Gals of the grand lodge and
through the secretary has outlined
the qualifications of the Duke City
as the location for such an institu-
ton, officials of the local lodge
stated.
Several years ago a committee of
the grand lodge visited Albuquer-
que and made a study of condi-
tons here and considered several
possible sites in the valley. The
construction project was aban-
doned because of the war and the
subsequent unsettled condition of
the building materials market.
The project has been revived and
It is understood that Albuquerque
is being seriously considered as the
location. According to one of the
Moose officials here, a Tip" has
gone out that the home is to be
built here.
According to the proposed plans,
the home would be established on
a. site in the valley, suitable for
farming. 1t would comprise sew
eral hundred acres and the con-
struction work would be gradual,
buildings being added as they are
needed, At the present Moose
heart home more than s2,OO0.O00
has been spent In construction
work since its establishment sew
eral years ago.

The special train of 85 Ohioans,
including the Ohio state football
team, which arrived here yester-

Cochrane, Ont. Jan 4 (by the
Associated Press) First details of
the experiences, of the three Amer
lean naval balloonists who suffered
unusual hardships while wander
ing for four days in the dense
Canadian woods and were forced to
eat their carrier pigeons to sub.
sist, were received here tonight
from the Anglican minister at
Moose Factory, the Hudson Bay
company's trading post. where
they found shelter.
The minister reported that the
halloonists, who left the Reckaway,
N. Y, naval air station at 1916 p.
M, December 10, landed fifteen
miles northwest of Moose Factory,
in the afternoon of the next day.
They thought they were still in
New York state, having been in
the clouds most of the time.
They came down, the minister
said, because they thought they
heard dog barking. They were
lost in the. deep underground for
two days and had about given up

Found Human Tracks.
Fortunately, on December II,
they came to the Moose river and
found tracks of human feet
through the snow.
Later they caught up with an
Indian, Tom Marks, who was out
hunting. One of the three aviators
was using suit of underwear as
an outer garment and the others
were in uniform. Marks, taken by
surprise by such a meeting in that
desolate section of the country, is
lcported to have at first resisted
their efforts to fraternize with
them. Eventually, they succeeded
in convincing him that they meant
no harm and he guided them to thi,

Ate Carrier Pigeons.
Absence of severe frost during
the time of their wandering in the
forest undoubtedly saved them
from perishing. They had eaten
two of their three pigeons when
they arrived at Moose Factory. The
eating Of the pigeons apparently
explains the mystery of why the
men had, not communicated with
the outside world after leaving
Rockaway.

contents but it was unsuccessful
