Novelist S Idea
to Pay Debts
With Islands
BY RALPH ii. TURNER,
United News STAT Correspondent

LONDON. July 5.-A proposal that
Great Britain pay her war debt to the
United States by turning over the Ba-
hama Islands. Bermuda. Trinidad and
other West Indies possessions, was
made by w. L. George. the British
novelist, who recently returned from a
lecture tour in America, in a Fourth
of July address before the English
speaking union.
The novelist treated his subject OF
Anglo American relations in a serio-
comic vein for the most part, but
wound up with a serious proposal for
settlement OF the war debt, which he
said threatens to leave an open sore.
IF we pay 1t will break us-espe-
cially as long as America erects a
tariff wall barring our goods" George
said. IF we don't pay, we will leave
an open sore.

CORRECTION: In answer to tbs
question, How can a sailor who has
deserted be discharged? this bureau
answered that he cannot be except
by act Of Congress or by the Presi,
dent; and that if he has not been
found within one year after deser-
ton he can never be arrested and
tried by court-martial.
The answer should. have stated
that it is the policy of the depart
ment, in most cases, not to court
martial a deserter found after a
year from the expiration of his
original enlistment period, but he
may be court-rmartialed at any
time. No one rule can be laid down,
however. as the particular circum-
stances of each case are taken into
consideration. This applies in
time of peace. In time of war, of
course, a deserter may receive cap
ital punishment. IL Apprehended at
any time.
