DIFFICULTIES
ON DEBT SEEN
Baldwin Bring Discouraging
Reports as He Arrives
Home in England

SOUTHAMPTON, Jan. 27 tBy The
Associated Press)-Stanley Baldwin,
chancellor of the exchequer. return
ing on the Olympic today from his
debt mission to Washington, told
newspapermen that settlement of the
debt question in the United States
was "in the hands of congress as the
representatives OF the people" and
that this situation constituted the
great difference between America
and this country"
Explaining that in America "you
may have an executive which is will
ing to do a great deal for you but
cannot because of difficulties" en-
countered in congress, Mr.. Baldwin
said:
I'm the early days the secretary
for the treasury could undoubtedly
have arranged terms with the Bri-
tish government, but the situation is
now complicated because the matter
is in the hands of the American con-
gress. You are not settling in Amer
lea with the cabinet at one end or
with business men at the other. You
are settling with congress and the
senate, which represent the people
of America from one end OF the
country to the other. In England II
any terms are agreed on regarding
the debt the government takes the
responsibility.
''On the other hand, what the ex-
ecutives in America have to do Is TO
endeavor to force anything or TINS
sort through congress and in doing
so they may be beaten"
The chancellor said he wondered
"whether the position which obtains
regarding the debt Is as clear IN
America as in this country. Contlh-
uing he asserted:
'.The great difference between
America and this country is that the
settiement OF the debt of the United
States is in the hands Of politicians.
We are bound in regard to that DEBT
in the most stringent bonds you can
possibly imagine

French today as an aftermath o3
yesterdays meeting Of Ruhr poles
chiefs, burgomasterS and state off~
ciaIs at which, 1t was said, measures
tor parrying the occupation were
discussed. One immediate result of
the conference was the arrest OF lt8
chairman, DR.. Gsuetzner, president

tells, cafes, cabarets and theatres

Industry and commerce are be-
ing seriously affected by the rail
strike and the French are ready to
try their hand at operating the lines
with the assistance of the $500 rail
workers expected in the Ruhr to-
day.
Having established their own cora-
munications through Neuss Junction
so as to avoid Cologne, the occupa-
ton authorities have informed Ber-
lin that they cannot move civilian
food trains, and thus the question
of hunger may be added to the situ-
alton. The effect OF the rail strike
IS also being felt in the mines ana
steel plants, for many Of the works
ers are being forced out.
Imposition of the customs core
troll, by which the French will bS
able to direct exports and imports
into occupied Germany, is expected
soon. This step is hailed in Gers

1t is queer commentary upon human

Eyes, we certainly ought to do this, ~

many San Antonians when the need for
assuring the future of Medina Lake as a
great fishing resort appeared. 1t was
in evidence also after the movement to
secure hatchery had been put under
way. This does not refer to all San
AntonianS; there were not few who
stood ready and willing to do whatever
was asked of them Gin the premises"
But Mr.. Furlong is the man who, in
the most practical sense, really put the
project through. And it took more than
sheer perseverance to do that 1t took
tact, and patience. and combination of
qualities which the French call SAVIOR

overcome, exacting requirements to be
met and lot of governmental tape to

MATCHING A FISH HATCHERY

With the contract for its construction

Antonians have long been going to
build" at Medina Lake has at last begun
to materialize. when the project shall
have been completed. number OF resi-
dents of this city will be entitled to no
little credit; they have given it both
their moral and their monetary support.
But it is extremely doubtful il this en-
terprise would ever have reached its
present stage but for the untiring efforts,
practical zeal ard other requisite quail
ties brought to bear upon it by the man
whom nearly everybody interested in the
development of San Antonio knows as
"Bill' Furlong.
If this sounds like the beginning of a
toast, an after-dinner speech or a come

such. For Mr.. William H. Furlong is
entitled to praise in whatever form Sar
Antonians, realizing the significance Of
