Kingston, Jamaica. Feb. 2f.---5reSt
Britain has no intention of disposing
of her West Indian possessions. Lord
Burnham. president of the British
| Empire Press Union said at a public
| banquet given in his honor here.
| Just before / reached America"
he said. there had been a debate in
the United States senate. raised by
Senator Reed of Missouri, in which
| he and few others had advocated
the purchase Of the British West In
dies by the government of the United
States. or rather their appropriation
as a part payment of the war debt.
There is no member of the British
parliament who believes more In the
saving virtues of Anglo American
friendship than l do: in fact. I look
to something less tepid than our
present relations. good thoughts. per-
haps, but all this talk about sale and
barter of the West Indian Island Ii
a parliamentary impertinence.
ITO say, as Senator Reed did. that
we block the mouths of the Missis-
sippi and neutralize the Panama Ca
nal. is all bunkum. We stand, as
Great Britain has always stood. for
real and universal freedom Of the
seas Nor can ii even be said that
the new service of 'bootlegging' can
be set down TO our account.
There are certain subjects that
should be tabooed in the governing
bodies of the English speaking states
and the sale and barter of organized
communities of our fellow citizens,

leges of the British commonwealth is

Lord Forteviot. president of the
