Birmingham, Feby, 4th.-'The Govt.
formally proposed a cancellation of all
inter-allied debts, but the rorosals
were unacceptable to the United States
Government, said Mr., J. Austin Cham
berlain in a speech to his constituents
here today. ITO make them again would

ued. beneath our dignity, and would
render US liable to a misconception of
our motive. In making them" he said,
we sought no national advantage for
ourselves. We proposed a solution in
which We should have foregone claims
larger than any RENTED to US, and we
proposed 1t because we believed it would
be IN the interest of good relations
amongst peoples, the rehabilitation of
National credit and the restoration Of
National Trade Our great international
debt IS due to the obligations we under
took OH behalf of our allies. If we had
only ourselves to consider, we should
have been practically free of external
debt at the present time. Mr.. Chamber
lain prefaced his remarks by saying that
he would have preferred it at the close
OF the war the whole inter-aIlied debt
had been wiped out, so as to start with
a clean slate. There was no proposal
for a settlement of the international debt
among the Allied and associated pow
ers, whether for total or partial remis-
sion, which the British Government
would not have been prepared to be a
party to-, he declared.

it is not "all of a sudden" there has

tactics and made an attack on the front,
viz when the bell has rung and the pa

from dark corners all around has been
awaiting this opp0rtune moment, will
rush to the gate and simply sweep away

situation was impossible in the long run

With regard to the 'rumors" about
the cold drinks and the underselling of
the theatre | must say that the sell ng of
cold sodas in the theatre has never been
considered a business proposition from
my side as the Income from the sale of

CHILDREN AND HEROES

It would be well were all school children to have a part in honoring heroes. Each probably has his own hero--it may be Jack Dempsey or il may be Ty Cobb or Babe Ruth.
 Children must have heroes. Chil- hood would lose half it's zest were it not for this fact. Each child must have someone to look up to in some aspect of life.
 Just now this nation is honori1g Marshal Foch, a brave modest leader of men of France. The children should have share in the tribute being paid to him. In later years Foch will per sonify to them bravery and strength and courage although our own Gen eral Pershing may have all of these, But when a nation honors a great man of another, the children should have their part in paying that tribute.
 Example plays q great part in a lads life, Usually it Is his father that he worships. Sometimes. if he is in- clined to more active ways than his father is able to understand, he scorns his fathers knowledge of the things that interest him. Then comes a breach between father and SOD, The

NORWALk FARES

All eyes will be turned to Norwalk to see if the test being made theHc, of lowering the trolley fares to five cents is going to prove successful Some hope that it will bring in sui dcient income to satisfy the company. Such people live on or very near a Grolley line here.
 Others hope, of course, that the trial will prove unsuccessful in Nor walk, so that the Public Utilities may see that it cannot be successful any where. Such people, in New Britain live where trolley service will not to them much good anyway.
 There will be objectors whichever way it works out, but the trial being made shows an honest effort on the part of the commission to decide these matters as fairly as possible.
 In New Britain we have needed the iitneys for long time When the Arch street trolleys were running, q reply was made to the commission that If the trolleys ran on a ten minutes schedule and charged five cents the jtnys would stop plying there."
 The reverse has happened. The jt- neys are still running on the five cent fare, having also extended their route, and the trolleys have ceased. Many are satisfied.
 On West Main street, not far from the center, the jitneys are considered a nuisance. Many of the people there never ride anyway, and the trolley suits them well enough if their motor is out of order and they have to ride. Public traffic is offensive to them, running immediately in front of their doors-but not all of them forget the other fellows necessity"
 Everyone cannot be satisfied; few are especially interested in the long runs ;the commission feels that if the five cent trolley fare works out we'll all will be well. The man in the street does not believe the trolley company would give us the proper service at that price.
 Until the experiment at Norwalk is tried thoroughly it would be well to withhold comment. Predictions are that the five cent fare will not be sat isfactory to the company, no matter how the commission views it.
 Meanwhile we are placed in most uncomfortable transportation situa- ton. We trust we shall not have to wait long before help comes.

COMMUNICATED
For Late Fall and Early Spring. Editor New Britain Herald.

For Late Fau and Early Spring. iiditor New Britain Herald.
 Dear Sir:-
 This wonderful fall weather seems to be bringing out an unusual crop of letters from the ''posey garden" and garden sass people about the lncomm only late productions in their various localities.
 These reports have been so frequen. and so remarkable that We had com menced to repeat to ourselves "I'said m my haste, all men are liars" but before stating this as a definite con- Clusion, We went out to take an in- ventory of our own garden possessions, and we came to the conclusion that perhaps not all these letter writers had qualified in the liars class after all, for in our ''posey garden" we found in bloom larkspur and clove Links and snap dragon and love lies bleeding" looking so bright and cheer ful that one could almost hear them saying: Tt takes more than one frost to kill us." On the south side of the rose bushes were four big wide awake yellow dandelion blossoms, and we heard a little wren that was hopping about near her say to them, Hey, what are you fellows doing out so late?' They all laughed and the big gest one said why, we got fooled, we thought twas spring.
 We went over into the garden sass tHl, lor some weeds with which the man had covered them up, a lot of beautiful tomatoes that had been picked since the 25th of Oct 18th, and nearly two baskets of fine peppers, picked the 26th, and on the 2Sth the garden man brought in five or six ripe red rasp berries. Down beyond the raspber- riesf where the celery and the pars- spin and the carrot tops make quite a shelter we found a stole away" nest where the old Rhode Island red had left a half dozen samples of hen fruit so we gathered these up and carried them into the sunny kitchen and said to The Boss, Here, Ma, lookit, make Us pun pEin pie, will you" and Ma said she would, so here's lookin'."
 By the way I forgot to say that the ram bier roses are holding up ihcir heads about as well as ever, and that the hollyhocks are still showing Gll the colors of Joseph's coat.
 It a good time to live, after all. Winter may bo coming, but it's not here yet. With kind regards we are

PRESIDENTS ORDERS.

There was something very solemn about the giving of their evidences Of authority to Hughes, Root, Lodge and Underwood. Every act of theirs will be an act under orders of the Presi- dent when they represent the United States at the great Conference for the Limitation ot Armament.
 And in the final analysis the ap- proval of the Presidents binding acts will have to be approved by the sen ate of the United States. Everyone knows this but it is good to hear or see it reiterated.
 It Is particularly fortunate that, this conference is to be. held in Washing ton, not abroad, for the President will be in constant touch with what is go- dent as, it is said, President Wilson refused to be aided at the Peace Table.
 The agreements will probably take the form of treaties between nations as there would be no other formal way in which the representative nations might be bound to live up to those agreements with a sense of complete legality and full confidence in the efficacy of the agreements. For this reason great publicity will probably be given to the agreements, as they must be ratified, by all respective govern ments before they may be made effec- tive.
 To sum the situation up it is be- lieved that the American delegation will work in the conference for the most substantial reduction of arma- ments compatible with the nocessaries for national defense of each country.
 In other words it sesms that the instructions will be to so act that the sentiments formerly expressed by the President will be lived up to- We desire association for counsel; we are ready to associate ourselves with the nations of the world for counsel to seek the expression of the world opin- ion; to recommend a way to approxi- mate disarmament and to relieve the ->esesshtng burdens of military and naval establishments" .-...
 In these words are seen Hughes and Harding. They are explanatory, yet they bind no one-yet they bring promise.

CITY ADVERTISEMENT.

 On the second page of yesterday s Herald (Oct. 3D fifth column, ap- pears "City Advertisement"
 The wording is perfectly plain. It is there stated that it is requested to call a city meeting for the purpose of acquiring lands for school build ings," for completing the payments on the Nathan Hale school and for building and equipping another new school building. The recommenda- ton of the board of finance and tax ation is that the meeting be called to authorize the issue of bonds to the extent of s4o0,0O0 therefor
 Tho meeting is to consider whether the s45,000 required for street work, etc, shall be provided for by the is- suance of bonds or by tax, it pro- vides for the transfer of s20O0O in the General Fund of the City Treas ury be turned over to the Charity Department.
 The advertisement is signed by the Board of Finance and Taxation It was prepared by the board for the Common Council and will come be- fore the city meeting.

 IL would seem ridiculous to call the every time such an advertisement is inserted. The law requires it to be published in each of the daily papers of the city, Those interested, even In a passive way, should see them.
 This comment is here made to re- mind many who profess ignorance of the way to go about keeping up with the big things that require the
