LONDON, Afig. 8 (Associated Press) .--
Sir Robert Horne, Chancellor OF the Ex-
chequer, In reviewing the British posi-
ton on German reparatIons In Commons
to-night-said the foundation OF the Ear
OF Balfour's note was the payment of
the debt to the United states "But
while this is so. we are not blind ia
this country to the colossal burden Inn
posed on the nations OF the world AT
the present time I'm the indebtedness Of
one nation 10 another" he said "and
we hold very strongly the view that
there is no graver impediment to the
recovery OF the world from the ravages
OF war than the extent OF that debt"
Sir Robert pointed out that the Brit
ish debt was greater than that OF any
other nation. amounting TO f7,7ss, ,O00.-
900. compared with f5,147,000 600 for
the United states and 1890 900 900 for
France. Tho British debt was f1sf per
head OF the population. the French fI62
and the American CAT. he said, adding
that IN these circumstances II was Inn
possible to make the British taxpayer
alone shoulder the payment Of the war
debts.
IF only the nations which fought side
by side in the war had been willing TO
regard their subscriptions 10 the war as
contributions TO the common success" he
continued, 1--WE might have been able TO
rid the world of many causes Of irrita-
tion and plant In the heart Of humanity

Britain Asks Equal Terms.

But there Is one thing / want to say
and think il Is essential that 1t should

ing there and everybody saying: This
trouble Is to be settled at the expense
OF Great Britain (Cheers). We are
going there on equal terms. II we put
forward the proposal that for the mo-
ment there should be a moratorium or
for the moment there should be a reduc-
tion IN the annuity II cannot be said !:
If you do that you must do II at your
own expense Whatever meeting OF
creditors has met under those condi-
tions?
I'VE go there. and whatever abate-
ment is made IL is 10 be an abatement
that must be made all around. We will
DO It In the interests OF all. l agree
that Il Is difficult business and / do
not think we are going TO settle IL at
the conference Monday.
There are too many difficulties. too
many complications. You have got to
get the facts into the minds not merely
OF the people OF this country but of the
people OF the Continent. That is a diffl-
cult matter. 1t Is the most difficult
thing in the world to get people to face
realities. X is not going TO be an easy
matter. We must Judge OF the capacity
Of Germany, perhaps not In lump sum.
We must Judge the capacity Of Germany
70 transmit wealth across her frontiers
That Is difficult thing TO do, but
whatever Is done l hope we will be able
70 march together--France, Belgium and
ourselves. We will give reasonable con-
alteration. sympathetic consideration to
every claim that Is put forward by dew
astated France. Great Britain is che
last country TO be accused of want OF
sympathy with either France or Bel
GUM. We will consider everything put
| forward by France and Belgium or
Italy.
When the taxpayers of this country
have borne and are bearing the most
crushing burdens Of those In any country
In the world we cannot go there and
have II said Well look after the inter
csts OF everybody, we'll see that every
body gets fair play except the people OF
our own country"

HIS MIND FIRMLY MADE UP
Prospective Juror Evidently Not a Man Who Could EaslIy Be Infiu-
 enced by Trifies.

The last time a jury trial was de. handed in city court at Jeffersonville a special venire was issued by the mayor under act of the legislature, and the court took care that every member should be man who could be depended on to vote according to the evidence-as we'll at least as the court could judge. the Indianapolis News re- ports. The prosecutor, James l.. Bot. torff, threw some light on the reason. Recently, he said. a jury was being im- paneled to try liquor case and the talesmen were being interrogated. One local merchant had been practically ac- cepted when the prosecutor asked whether he had any objections to find ing a man guilty under the prohibition laws. You could not present evidence that would convince me of his guilt" was the answer. 'I should vote for acquittal if l knew he was guilty" The prospective juror was permitted to stand aside. He seemed to have found sure way to avoid being drawn for jury service.

Texarkana, Dec. 12.-That Will Bar Der, aged 54, a watchman for the Cot ton Belt railroad at Mckinney, near

Real Golfnq Hero.

Lord Riddell, who made many Amer ican friends at the Washington con- ference, speaking at a recent luncheon at the Criccleth Golf club, London, re- lated:
 "The greatest hero in golf history was a Scotsman, who in the year ITO used ts start playing at dawn and end by putting at the last green by candle light.
 Matters reached such stage that his wife, an innkeeper, applied for a separation order. This enabled the man to make one of the most pathetic declarations in history.
 "Let her have the business,' he said, provided she gives me sufficient to clothe and feed myself and provide myself with golf balls
 'The magistrates must have thought 1t very proper disposition of the marital property, because they de- creed accordingly, and the gentleman lived to be ninety-five and continued his vocation"

FEDERAL COTTON HANDLiNG
Census Director Is For Government
 Grading and Stapling.

| Washington, Dec. 12.-Grading and stapling of cotton under government supervision is recommended by M. M. Steuart, director of the Bureau of the Census, in his annual report, made public today.
 There is considerable demand for statistical information as to the quan- titles of the several grades of cotton held in stock in the United States" " says Mir Steuart. Obviously under present conditions it is impossible to secure reliable information of this character, since much of the cotton lis not accurately graded until it reaches the more important cotton markets or concentration points, Since practically all the cotton produced in the United States enters into either interstate or foreign commerce, it is within the power of Congress to enact | legislation requiring such cotton to be graded and stapled under government regulations at central grading stations. The government could provide the ne- cessary personnel and facilities, but | the cost of grading which probably' y would not amount 70 more than 30 or 40 cents bale, should be provided by the owner of the cotton.
 With uniform grading thus provid- ed throughout the cotton growing re- zion, it would be possible to obtain from the grading stations the numbers of bales of the several classes grad ed, and from consumers and exporters the number of bales of the several grades consumed and exported"
 Director Steuart recommends repeal of the provision in an act of 1916 which required quarterly reports by the Gen. sus Bureau on the amount of cotton used in the manufacture of explosives, since such information is no longer oi value. When the law was passed use of cotton in explosives was so great that it had an effect on the price.

TROPICAL VALLEY FAR NORTH
Area in British Columbia, Close to the Yukon Border, Has Hundreds
 of Hot Springs.

Discovery of an almost tropical val ley with rivers of boiling water. min- eral springs. abnormal plant growth and aboundins with game, in far northern British Columbia is reported by Frank Perry. mining engineer of Vancouver, returned after IT years passed in prospecting the valley close to the Yukon border. The area Of the terrain covered by Mir. Perry is roughly TOO miles north and south and 300 miles wide, between the coastal range and tho Leard and FeF< Neison rivers.
 The unusual sight Of . heavy fog in winter attracted him to the valley. Exploration showed tho valley to De approximately 200 miles. lonx and about 40 miles wide. Rivers of hot water running through. were fed by hundreds of hot springs, tho steam from these being condensed on rising, forming the fog which Perry had first seen.
 Tree growth in the valley was ab- normal, Mfr. Perry stated. Ordinary wild rose bushes were like trees, and so dense that 1t was Impossible to force a way through. Some tree trunks were fully one foot and a half in diameter
 Important mineral deposits were dis covered by MT. Perry, including gold. silver and copper. Coal, iron and oil formations were also found.
