NEGOTIATIONS ARE POSTPONED TOWARD PAYNEhT OF DEBT DUE
 UNITED STATES BY ENGLAND

LONDON, Aig. 8 - In MicaWber fashion Great Britain is postponing action with regard to opening negotia, tions with the United States for the funding of the war debt.
 The British government has re. ceived a request from the United States Funding Commission to send delegation to Washington to discuss the funding question, but there is lit tie chance that such a commission will reach America before autumn.
 |. One of the reasons for the delay is sending a British debt commits sion to the United States is that Great Britain has passed the buck" on to her debtors. Notes have been sent to all of the debtors of Great Brit ain indicating that liquidation of the debts or steps in that direction will be necessary in the immediate future. Until Great Britain knows what her debtors are going to do she will be unready to consult with the United States with reference to the payment of the British debt.
 The International News Service is officially informed that Great Britain does not feel capable of indicating to United States what her course will be toward the payment of her debts until the Allies have indicated when and how they will pay their debts to Britain.
 For many months Great Britain has used the war debts owing to her as a moral lever, but this pressure has now failed to bear fruit, and it is under stood that France has indicated that she will not hasten to pay her debts to Britain unless Britain uses her in, fluence to exact full reparations pay ments from Germany. This leaves the British government in a quandary.

for restoration of trade with Germany and Russia is one of the primary de- sres of this country, which is still sui fering from unemployment and trade depression.
 At the present time officials of the
 tish Treasury frankly advise the International News Service that they have no plan of debt payment to offer to the United States further than the payment of annual interest of approx imately $250,00O,O00, as previously an nounced Chancellor of the. Exchequer Horne, in presenting his budget on May 1, announced that a semi-annual payment of interest due the United States to the extent of $125 100000 would be paid in October, and since that time it has been learned that pro- visions have been made for paying an canal amount semi-annually, but no further Sters have been taken. The present years budget would not war rant the payment of any of the prln- ciple, especially since many Of the usual sinking fund payments nave been suspended in order to make tax reductions possible.
 Treasury officials are ready to ad- init that the financial prospects are not rosy and that there should be no misapprehension on the part of the United States that large payments Of principle will be made at an early date. Great Britain announces her in tention of paying her debt to the Unit ed States in full, but it is evident that she does not intend to hurry.
 Until the Allies begin payments of their debts to Great Britain it is prac-' tically certain that Great Britain will not make large payments to the Unit ed States.

How COULD Reddy Woodpecker &C
cept his invitation to enter? The car
penter's doorway was too small for
him. And the wood was not the sort
that Reddy liked to chisel away with
his bill. 1t wasn't brittle enough to
suit him. So he knocked again.
When the carpenter came rushing
back to his doorway, his pale face
wore an anxious look.
"Oh." he said. II thought it was

TO tell me my house was on fire. But
it's only you. What do you want

When will that >be?" Reddy de-
lnanded.
II don't know" the odd person con
fessed. 1T seems as if I never would
get my house finished"
Then" said Reddy, there can't
be any use in my leaving my card,
Probably when you found time to look
at it you wouldn't remember who left
it."
Probably nct." the carpenter ad-
mitted Good DAY. sir' And he
lodged out OF sight.
Still Reddy Woodpecker was not

time.

when he aswered Reddy's tapping.

Mo- Reddy replied. II want to
say"
IF you have anything more TO tell
write me a letter." said the pale-faced
carpenter. And he set up a sign
where Reddy Woodpecker could see
it: This is My Busy Day",-"Then he
passed from view.
Rcddy Woodpecker stayed a long
time at the poplar tree beside the
brook. He knocked and knocked un-
til at last his head began to ache. But
the sswdust-covered carpenter never
showed his pale face again.
